Gary, I can't speak to the shimming of the stock needles, as all I did was install the dynojet needles and pull the snorkel. If you have the same kit that I have, the instructions say the kit is fine with or without the after market exhaust!
I'm not changing the exhaust on mine, as it runs great as is. I bought this bike to improve my riding skills and be safe. It is fast enough for me. With the extended warranty, if I need to place a claim, I only have to pop the OEM needles back in, reinstall the snorkel, and recap the carb mixture screws.
Kelly (kkim) has a lot more knowledge/experience with the needle shimming and can probably answer your questions.
