Default power commander questions

Hello everyone, just need some advice here about my bike. So I am running a full TRS yoshi exhaust system with a K&N air filter. I am thinking that my bike is running too lean and am afraid it will cause damage if this continues. Anyway i looked at the dynojet website for some maps, but i didnt find any that had a full TRS with K&N filter so i am not sure what to do. I do not know much about the power commander but i plan on getting one if it will help my bike.
What are my options if i were to get one?
any help would be appreciated.

Any map with a full exhaust and aftermarket filter will be better than no tune at all

108-019 For use with Micron Serpent full race exhaust and stock or aftermarket air filter
108-018 For use with Arata full race exhaust and stock or aftermarket air filter
108-015 For use with Kerker full exhaust and stock or K&N air filter
108-009 For use with Akrapovic full exhaust and stock or K&N air filter
I suggest trying the 108-015 and 009 first as they mention the k&n by name. You can compare the pipe size of the exhausts too. If the Akrapovic full system has a header diameter closer to the yosh system than the Kerker has then it'll likely be a more accurate map for the airpump that is your engine

Dyno tuned specifically for your bike is the best option.

i have a shortened yoshi and K&N and use map# 108-016 "Two Bros Racing with K&N filter" and she runs like a top.

How much did that full system run you? i bet it looks real puuurdy. Now chop it! lol

Best bet is to get the power commander and take it to a dyno so they can custom tune it! Even the dynojet tunes are a 'best estimation'.

So what map worked best for you? I am curious because I have a full Yoshi exhaust and k&n filter also.
