Ok, this might be a stupid question with no easy answer but here it goes…
The aftermarket exhaust on my ride is on the obnoxious side. I’ve always kept to the quiet exhaust side to keep a lower profile and not annoy others. I do love the sound but it certainly isn’t stealthy.
I have a flashed ECU which was presumably after the exhaust was installed, I’ll have to look into that to be sure.
If I swap back to the stock exhaust, which I have, is it likely that I should get a new flash?

Is is just a slipon or a full exhaust? If just a slipon, I doubt much changes and if anything you go rich so you're safe. If it fouls plugs or runs like crap, then think about reflash (but I doubt it will).

Depends on the bike and what flash was done, I think. Does the stock exhaust have a cat?
On the Tuono, installing a slip-on usually removes the cat, and requires a flash to richen or it'll run lean. Reversing the process without flashing back to stock can lead to fouling the cat, as it doesn't get hot enough.
Might be worth checking in on a forum dedicated to your bike to see. Any way to ask the seller about what flash they used?
Very nice bike! Did you mention if the suspension is stock or has it been upgraded?
The FZ09’s look like they would be so much fun for day trips up north and commuting around town.

they are, best bang for buck bike i've ever ridden
new ones come with cruise control, good suspension and quick shifter
Do you mean the SP? That is big money to match (over 15k after fees and before tax....starts to make less sense at that money). The regular ones suspension still seems pretty low end-average like the previous ones

my understanding is ALL the 2021+ models come with the new stiffer frame, better steering geometry and better suspension, quickshifter
The SP comes with cruise control, and ohlins as well.
Ok, I thought some of things you said were SP stuff. I have a hard time seeing paying $17,000 for a mt09 either way. Love the bike but god damn that is a lot for what it is, a really fun hooligan city type naked bike.

I got a REALLY good deal for my 2017 and paid 10k all in for brand new
for base model 2021 you're probably looking at 11.7 OTD
15k for the SP, which I agree is a lot, you're pushing leftover tuono RR model price range at that point
That's what I'm saying. Before insurance cock blocked me in 2018 I was looking at 10.5 on the road. At that amount, it's amazing value.
And yes it's not far off, and let's be honest the Tuono is a better bike.
its better but it's not exactly comparable.
MT09 is a comfy street naked, Tuono is more akin to a race bike with flat bars.
Nice ride. From what I understand, STD mode makes the same power as A mode, you just have to advance the throttle further. I never use A mode as the degree of finesse required on the throttle to prevent whiplash is bordering on ridiculous.. For me, its a lot easier to to use Grampa mode (B) and STD mode (sometimes) at higher speeds.The ECU flash is one of the tasteful mods already completedbut I do appreciate the input for sure.
I’ve been riding in STD mode and TC1 for the most part with a bit of A mode to test her out. She definitely has no problem picking the wheel up!

Do you know who did the flash? Vcyclenut is probably the most popular, best to get in contact with him as he will have a record of what he did to the ecu and whether or not you have to get it reflashed for the stock exhaust.
I'm still sorting out the drive and traction control modes on my new to me Tracer GT. Cruise control is great on the highway. Air Hawk overlay makes the Bagster seat livable for the time being.
Just back from a 2,000 km trip to Calabogie area with a few people. The Tracer GT is ridiculously nimble in the corners compared to the ST1100 which really had to be counter-steered fairly aggressively. The GT engine is a scream, bike accelerates much harder than the ST. I have it in B mode / traction control mode 2 for the time being. 3,000 km trip next week and I'm going to be adjusting sag and the various suspensions settings before I head out.
Yamaha has a real winning strategy with its modular engines being shared across a range of bikes.
