    Quick Fix:

    If concerned, why not just ad another axle nut & thin spring washer? They're thin & it looks like there's enough thread/space.

    Hi Allan;

    Based on things I've read on spyderlovers, I suspect they reprogrammed the 17's. (Maybe the Daytona versions?) I'm thinking this may have been at the expense of slightly reducing low...

    Interesting. My stock D-500 SE (2017) displays almost the opposite behavior. Seems a little "under-torqued" ("torque challenged" actually imo lol) down low..... But unlike what I've read many...

    YEP!

    Excellent post & 100% spot on IMO. (Still, just a little more "off the line" torque would be sooooo nice! Would justify being able to disable the traction control in an SE.)

    Yep, that's about where I cruise. Great gas mileage by the way! (Mine seems pretty "sleepy" @ 2000 rpm.... I'm surprised there's that much torque down so low.)
