There was a post somewhere around here where weedahoe shortened the yoshi on his GSXR. I imagine you could grab a yoshi slip on and follow what he did. Or, you could get a short can with the proper diameter and just cut your exhaust pipe to fit it on. There are a few ways of going about it.

Edit: Here it is!

Almost any can, can be shortened. There are tons of tip and after market cans you can use also

Gotcha.

Rev limiters on bikes are controlled electronically. The GS5 doesn't have that type of computer system. Besides, normal street driving should not get you even close to a redline

What, you LIKE that shaZam!?!

Nothing pisses me off more than wanton abuse of machinery.

I know it doesn't matter what I think... But at least I can get that off my chest!

Not many of us have use for them, so info on the is limited. Here is a fellow gstwinner that was selling his used rev limiter(had it previously installed on his track bike);

Looks like he still has it too, PM him he may also have info/tips/tricks on limiters
