Welcome to the club from a previous K1300R owner. They'll be plenty of experts on here with tons of experience of this marque so you'll never be lacking good advice or their banter.
The usual suspects will be along in due course to offer their welcomes.  ;)

Hi Dave (one assumes) and welcome to the madhouse that is EuroKClub!

Well, there is a first time for everything I suppose. And that is the first time I've heard anyone talk of poor fuelling on a K13; I'm just glad you didn't get a K12  ;D

Where did you get the re-map done? BSD is the place of choice for some of our guys!

Brian (who nips out on his K12 on e in a while just to remind how great the fuelling is on his K13  8) )

  Hi Dave wecome to the forum. Looking at your thumbnail looks as though you got the black silk metallic model, good call. Did you get the bike from Williams BMW Manchester by chance? I also have a K1300r 2014 model.
  It sounds as though you have had the bike on the dyno, what was it pumping out before and after at the back wheel? Would like to know what these bikes kit out in real world HP. It would also be interesting to see what the bike would put out if you added the extra air intake mod to the LHS of the airbox. Not that you really need any more power.  :D I have never seen any figures for that modification either.  ::)

yes it was from Williams with goodies that I would have put on already so it was sold...
and it is dave
my bikes at hammer and tongs warrington and by what dyno guy has stated he was impressed with results....well my power went from 152 to 162 at rear and gained torque everywhere.stock air filter didn't look healthy that should have been replaced at last service in april!...but ill be judge when I throw my leg over it
 personally I found you were increasing throttle grip to smooth it out as it was running too close to lambda(know this regards tuning my bikes myself)but in doing this your speed increases ...bike runs worse when cold ...basically typical symptons of running lean...ive seen the mods owners have done with fooling water temp sensor into that its reading technically a cooler engine so fuels it a tad richer ...problem in my eyes it over fuels top end ...so reflash was way to go ..I have also seen a tuner show his wares by flashing without bike on dyno ...no same bikes fuel the same even if you blueprint engine,they will develop different power and torque characteristics
