Default Is this for real?!

Amazon Amazon

So I've had my Duke for several days now, and like most everything about it other than the throttle response at low RPM.

Is a re-map with new exhaust the only "real" fix?

Can anything here make a real difference?

The re-map and aftermarket exhaust didn't change that on my bike. The tech told me the do-it yourself 15min idle does nothing. I did it anyway, no help.

Try going down a tooth on the front sprocket. These bikes need a little tweaking to get them right.

I did the throttle position sensor thing which seemed to help mine some, but I went 2 teeth larger on the rear and agree that seemed to make the biggest difference. A little less sensitive plus it brightened up throttle response all the way thru.
