Been riding for 10+ years and never have ridden a bike with a tune that neuters 2nd gear so bad. I am absolutely mesmerized because all the other R9 owners I’ve talked to in person have said they have no idea what I am talking about. Drives me nuts, that 2nd gear has 75% power. What tune and exhaust recommendations do you all have, I need to get this thing running how it should be from the factory.

Bonus question, I’ve seen mixed reviews about mt09 exhausts direct bolting up to the r9. I’ve seen some people say it bolts right up and others say they had to make special brackets and sometimes clearance is an issue when leaning on the right side.

Been wanting an Alpinist for a couple of years and finally decided to get it. Just need to get the anchor bracket for it.
