Looking for a tuner in Upstate SC who knows how to work with SERT. Recommendations appreciated.

I PMed you for more information on this situation but I guess you don't want to answer me so I have to asked you this on your post . Are you experiencing the hesitation the Fly By Wire bikes are giving us 90% of the time after engine mods and tune are completed?
When you say marginal gains where made...what are your mods? Did the bike run smoother or was it all about HP numbers to you and not drive ability? I ask these questions because I've known Eddie for many years and I know he does good work, if he did mess up your tune I want to confront him with your concerns but I have to have some ammunition not just a angry customers view.
