I still have the removed screws and plates, however one of the screws twisted off so it would make reinstalling them a chore. I havent even thought about picking a vendor for the reflash. I was under the impression once the flies were removed there was no flash available and not much increase in hp would be realized.
Reflashing isn't just about peak horse power, it is also about responsiveness (which is VERY important). Now, you gained a lot of the responsiveness by removing the flies, but it will lack the "finesse" that makes the C14 so very very nice. A good flash [without removing the secondary butterflies] really changes the bike immediately, and all for the better (except the intake noise is louder). Others have posted how much nicer the bike is when they re-installed the "flies" and reflashed it.
My only disappointment with the bike since the first time I picked the bike up was the disappointing hp vs a zx14. I had a C10 and was waiting for a new Concours. Took my buddies new zx14 for a ride then the next day went to the dealer to pick up a new C14 only to find out they denutted or as I call it detuned it.
It isn't really "detuned", it is "re-tuned" for different/specific purposes like fuel economy, smoothness, comfort, reliability, lower maintenance, etc. Everything in life is a tradeoff
What the C14 is designed/tuned to do, it does well.... except they could have done it better, which is why reflashing helps the bike really become what it should have been in the first place (because they robbed way too much responsiveness). But if you aren't looking for refinement, then the C14 probably isn't the best bike for ya, the ZX14 might be a better choice. Nothing wrong with that.
Oh man are you gonna get it. Just wait til Max shows up!!
I never want to disappoint!
