Stupid stupid throttle

I've tried turning off TC and WC but didn't make a difference. It's certainly not mechanical, the bike cuts fuel for some reason.
 
My post about the mechanical pieces was in reference to getting away from a standing stop. I def feel I have better, more optional modulation of coupling with this mechanical setup. I spent a few days at our shop in the parking lot trying different clutch setups getting the mechanics worked out and then mating my abilities (dog ....) to the to where no matter what the launch situation (mostly leaving Starbucks) was very smooth and consistent every time. I have had many comments while riding with people on Panigale's on how a guy who has no business being on much more than a moped makes that process look easy. Fueling, for sure, different issue. If your running the RB and it's "working" any your having stalling issues in a race / track situation with regard to a launch then you have some issues for sure. It's def more of a challenge to get the fueling mechanics and electronics playing nice together with a low idling twin and with all the interrelated components having to agree for that to happen especially as the list of these components continues to rise in number and complexity makes it difficult to troubleshoot. I think that's why a lot of guys just deal with it.
 
Additionally on the TC, WC, EB etc. I am by no means even remotely savvy in these areas in terms of rider/bike interaction evaluation. I do understand the mechanics. That being said, strictly from my own perspective and personal experience, compared to other platforms that I have toyed with, the electronic aids on these things to me were a bit gimmicky. I think the work but I don't think they work very precisely. I'm sure that is different for guys tracking who have really dug into it but on a street bike, it's ....... goofy. I just picked up a new AMG 63 GLE as I needed something smaller to run around town. I drove it to AZ and back yesterday and had a chance to play with all the self driving ..... It's pretty cool and once you get used to it, it has some benefits for sure but it's not perfect. The power control is just ....... stupid. It has 4 modes and the juvenile exhaust popping and ridiculous engine reving and down shifting get more aggressive as you go through them. More gimmicks. It's all a bit silly.
 
The evolution of it all. We all want more power which surpasses the mechanical grip/balance so we look to electronics . This is my 1st electronic bike excluding my MTS 1200 (comes with a rear handbrake). I'm somewhat disapointed , especially the DWC. Any way I'm working on the mechanical improvement scenario , as well as rider improvement !
 
I'm also wondering if the exhausts can be to open , to short and dont have the scope to fuel correctly in the lower revs? Giles,(the Rapidbike tech asked me if I had a short exhaust, as these are difficult to tune ? Just a thought?
