Mine runs with no problems with the PAIRS removed, I made a couple of aluminium blank plates to fit to the heads and just make sure you seal/blank off any other hoses/connectors.
LOL, OK you found me out!ozzraptor wrote:Thanks for the replies , yes its 396 , and its still on bikepointI think the bike sounds better with the pair removed, not to mention dumping half a kilo of junk. Never regretted removing the pair valve on my sv1000 . I have already searched snorkel mod and i think it may be worthwhile on this bike since it looks like the airbox is sucking in warm air with those snorkels attatched . There was a mod on the sv1000 snorkel which was not to remove completely but to cut the lower portion off which left the top piece still attatched to suck in fresh air in the gap just under the tank. Cant really do that on this bike but it looks like it will be sucking in cooler air with the snorkel out? Some ram tubes would be nice . Another mod i did was the flapper valve in the airbox, those in the know say not to remove the flappers completely but to drill the plates with 4 holes in each plate , 1-2-1 configuration , it felt like there was a definite improvement in engine response when i did this to my sv1000 , it was a wheelie machine off the throttle in first. I probabally wont bother on this bike since i have only a slipon exhaust. Started fitting my GPR today, the link pipes were way too long so i have begun the task of shortening them. So far i have one side done and then need to get welded to finish but looks way better now me thinks.
Oooh, thanks diz, now I've got a good excuse for not doing them!dizzyblonde wrote:Wheelies?
