Some further info regarding my previous post.

The decel popping didn't bother me, but I was told by a couple of tech types that removing the AI would let the engine run at optimum. Not more power, just a tiny bit better abd able to breathe better. That's why I removed the AI.

The 2 vacuum caps that come with the AI removal kit are too large for the tubes on the throttle bodies of the EFI bikes. They do fit carb models. That's where my air leak was. 2 smaller vacuum caps fixed that.

Determining that Don's pipe mods left the pipes more restrictive than TORs came from lengthy discussions with my brother (not a Triumph owner, he's into MGs, but a very knowledgeable auto person) and much email correspondence with Mark Zimmerman, MC Tech book author and Tech writer for MC Cruiser magazine.

I've been sans bike this past week, but will have it back with me after today. I'll do the AI removal on Monday or Tuesday. I'll try to get the engine light to reset using Davo's method (which worked once for me already) and if that doesn't work, I'll do the resistor install per the write up on the TriumphRat.net forum.

I'll post results when I'm done.
