2016 here. I lowered it. love that I am closer to the ground. and yes, it is a bit harder to put up but at 5'9 145 it really isn't a problem for me.

I have an original '16 exhaust just sitting here. I got my bike used with 3300 miles on it and it had already been swapped out for a black widow system. no idea how many actual miles in, I would guess just a few, but don't know. let m know.

I judy put on my second set of dunlop roadsmart II's, got 9,700 k on them. not too bad, and the dunlops are a lot less then the michelins.

I had mine flashed. then I was at another shop where they were racers and got a little lesson in flashing. short answer is if you REALLY want the best flash for YOUR bike there is only one way to go. done by a shop with a dyno. that way it is specific for all of the little things that make your bike yours. your valves are different than mine. along with anything else.

I'm fairly late to this discussion and the link shows no product. do you have a pic of what the guy is making and maybe a name so that I can look him up? thanks

I bought my '16 fj used with just 3300 miles on it. it came with lots of extras, including the black widow. I think the full carbon 250 (no docs, and it is snug under the right rearset), and no baffels. great sound. I had the ecu sent out and flashed. not sure just how it affected the power. however, I was speaking with a tech guy and he was pretty clear that having the ecu flashed without running it on a dyno still only gives you a generic map. if you really want to see a difference in performance you HAVE to do it with a dyno. now I will have to see just when I can do that.

here in los angeles. just got my '16 2 months ago with 3300 miles on it.
