Cooksend,
Just have the Euro map installed. You can then buy a handlebar mounted 3 way switch to go up next to your kill switch from a few different vendors. Mine is from "Sickass Racing". It plugs into the harness under the seat. The settings are easily adjusted from MED,MILD,WILD. It just changes the timing curve not the fueling map. You can switch it between settings anytime with the engine running at idle.
I also run the full FMF Megabomb system. It still has a spark arrestor screen insert but I have the largest one that fits in the FMF Powercore 4 muffler. The inside diameter of that insert is 1.575" or about 40mm. This is not the smaller inside diameter spark screen insert that came with that Powercore 4 Muffler. It really isn't all that loud. I never even started the bike with the stock exhaust. So I honestly couldn't tell you how quiet it is with the stock can or headpipe on there.
I currently mix 100LL avgas about 40% to 60% Premium pump gas with a bit of Startron marine formula and some octane booster. This is what I have been running through the fuel system for the last 60 hours. Especially if I run it on the "Wild" setting? Which with this fuel is normally all the time. In most of the riding I do. I want that snappy response. I ride at about 4000 to 5500 ft. elevation. Sometimes up to 6500 ft.
I run it on the WILD setting a lot when in the tighter stuff. The bike will pull harder and be more responsive down low with more ignition advance. The bike is less likely to see detonation down in the lower gears as you have the mechanical advantage of the transmissions gear reduction which means it spends less time pulling to the top of the rev range under a heavy load.
If I'm going to take it down any long high speed dirt roads, at a Hundred miles an hour. I'll first set it to the MED, or usually the MILD setting. Retarding the timing back to the MED or MILD settings timing curve will allow it to pull all the way up safely through to the higher rpm range and in doing so. Its less prone to see possible detonation when its tapped out in high gear, as its at this time that its under a heavier load for a longer period of time at Max RPM. Which is when it would be more likely to see detonation !!
Max rpms + Heavy load + longer period of time at Max rpm under a heavy load. Simple really.
I have never had any detonation issues running the bike like this, under extreme conditions with this mix of fuel. I have scoped the sparkplug with a lighted spark plug magnifier after doing so several times and if the engine had been detonating it would show on the spark plug after doing full throttle sustained high speed riding.
I don't have to go too far where I live and I'm on the trails in less than half a mile from my driveway. It takes less than a minute to get there and I can go for miles here. The bike is plated and insured. No horn, no signals. I am running the 'Acerbis" 4.1 gallon tank.
So today I put the map switch on the handlebar. I decided to go with the TrailTech version with integrated kill switch. I absolutely cannot find the 2 pin connector that the map switch plugs into. What the heck am I missing? I removed the tank, side panels, battery and clipped all the zip ties I could find to chase wires and could not find it to save my life. Where is it hidden?
