As both above. Your bike is currently overgeared to pull 4th in the revs where this pipe will return the power gain that you're looking for. Don't mistakenly think that fitting shorter gearing is a backwards step, you only need look at Innocenti's own examples to see which way they were going with their 200s:
TV200 = 4.4
SX200 = 4.8
GP200 = 5.2
TV200 = 4.4
SX200 = 4.8
GP200 = 5.2

have you got a rev counter if not what speed in 3rd before and what speed now in 3rd ,id not be sure on the gearing change may need 1 more on that kit ,,its a common misconception of clubman pipes but they regularly rev much higher than pretty much most of the popular exhausts ,the supertourer will rev on a tuned kit but a low duration kit like the rt will peak early
i would look to upjet too the bgm clubman normally requires a small main jet 115-120 as it gasses up otherwise due to its small outlet ,the fran supertourer nearer 125-128 try jetting first as you might kill it

You have to tune kit to get best out of fran super Tourer from my experience, the 225 kit i tweaked to work with it originally hit peak power at 6 k and went nowhere . It now pulls to 8.5 k with little drop in tq
I had a rt230 myself a few yrs back, bolt on with jl4 it ran well with good spread of power to 7.6 k .
There a good kit and will pull well with box pipe to 65 mph all day long, however gearing is important too
