I just got my R6 jetted and now it pulls hard and goes insane at the top end . . . the only thing is that I noticed that it runs 10 to 15 deg. hotter . . . is that normal?

Is it running hotter because your going WOT all the time "testing" your new jet kit???

It's a factory jet kit installed to compensate for my Yoshi slip-on. Poway Motorcycles did the install and cost, kit inculded, was around $500.

I may have paid too much . . . they also replaced the plugs and air filter, I don't know if that was standard for a rejetting.

I was warned by a few people that they were going to be expensive but supposedly do great work . . . nothing fell off yet so I guess I'm satisfied . . .

the thing I am bummed about is that the bike didn't get dyno'd :(

275 is for the install and tuning alone. another 110 is for the jet kit. I got mine jetted last week. only picked up 2.5hp peak with the factory race kit. but gained a consistent 3hp from 7k and up. wierd thing is that they didnt use the 49 state main jets. they opted for the jets for CA bikes because they sed from experience that it makes more power.
