Hi All,
I'm hoping you guys can help me out and give me advice. I'm a little confused. This year I bought a 2020 Panigale V2 with an Arrow Exhaust Slip on. After riding it, it seems like the acceleration would bog down for the first 3/4 seconds of every gear and then take off. My TC was on Street performance and Wheelie Control was at 1(low). I didn't think these settings had a lot to do with it doing this. As far as I knew, the bike DID NOT have a tune in it. At this time, the exhaust would backfire letting off mostly only in 1st gear.
I had the bike serviced, the headlight recall fixed, computer updated, and the oil changed. I had the guy ride it and he said, "yea it runs like crap and it needs to be tuned." Based on my friend's recommendation, I bought the BT Moto tuner, read the ECU, got a tune back and the guy at BT Moto said this: "Quick Note when the dash says "Racing Evo" it means it is a Tune from Ducati for the Pipe. Just want to set the expectations that it should be "good" but will be "better" after this tune. Well I installed it and it seemed a little better but it Pops more letting off in every gear and pops even shifting from 2nd to 3rd. My friends also said I can see it spitting fire. After changing the traction control from street performance to track performance, I saw a better performance on acceleration.
My question is, am I missing something here? I don't think the acceleration should be that delayed. Should I stick with the BT Moto tune or go back to the stock? Is it suppose to backfire/pop that much with the arrow exhaust, even with a ducati pipe tune? Thank you in advance I'm new to Ducatis.
