I owned a 2006 280 and just got a 2009 280 and i find the 2009 to be just a little soft off the bottom
anyone else?

Break-in? Jetting? Do you have the same gearing? The taller gearing can make it feel that way right off the bottom.

the 2006 and 2009 were/are both stock
the only adjustments i did to both was the needle and air screw for the elevation
i was considering bumping up the timing but i dont know if this can be done with the engine maping/switch

Know your jetting! If it came too small on the pilot jet it will be weak off the bottom. :D
