hi,

i have a s4r 2005 w full zard and k&n open air filter, and PC3. I resently had the 30 000 kilometer service and tuned the PC3. The bike is still running a little bad at about 4000 rpm, and the exhaust "shoots" when i slow down after going fast. Otherwise the bike is running good. Is this something i should just live with or is it possible to get it btter. It was a ducati dealer that dit the PC3 and the service.

Shoots? As in makes a bang or popping noise?

Many times a popping as the engine spools down is due to a small leak in an exhaust connection. Make sure all you header, mid pipe and slip-on connections are seated well
-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

like a bang...

I dont think i have a leak any more. I did close them with exhaust paste. So it haves nothing to do with PC3 or any other adjustments?
