I live about 90 miles from my dealer; I was advised by the
mechanic to not put the race can on and ride it that far, as
there was the possibility of exhaust valve damage due to the
leaner mixture.  I bungeed the can to the seat and rode over
so he could install the can and download the correct tune.

YMMV.
