I've bought 3 maps from Mark and play around with them each year. Sometimes I think I can tell the difference and other times I'm not so sure. I should spend a bit more time dialing it in this year.

Mr. Pacman, we seem to have similar bike setups. I also have the 2014 V7, agostini pipes w/baffles, and beetle mapped. I for sure noticed that the map smoothed out the acceleration in 2nd to 3rd gears for me. It made my 2nd gear seem shorter, meaning that I after the re-map I shift to 3rd at a lower speed than I did on the stock map. Overall, this makes the acceleration feel better to me. I also get much fewer pops out of the muffler on my deceleration. Like Wfm333 says, I will still get a few pops here and there when decelerating but nothing like it was before the re-map.

Nice! Yes second does feel shorter now you mentioned it. 4th feels like a new gear now. I can ride in 4th at 100kmh without immediate desired to change into top. I have noticed that she is more likely to stall and have flat spots if I ride off without warming the engine. Never stalled before the map , just ran poor. Did you notice any difference in stalling and more need to warm up before engaging the gears? Cheers

Out of curiosity, do you know which map you are using from Beetle? Mine is: V7-1TB-NoCat-9F12-2017.09.07. I'm still getting some lag in 2nd and 3rd gear. Wonder if I need to buy a new updated map if Mark has changed it.

Interesting that your bike has the baffles in but the map labeling suggests it's for a bike without the baffles. Maybe it's a variable that doesn't make much of a difference.
