Instead of having to turn the throttle like half-way around the bars to get to full open throttle, you only have to turn 1/5 to get to full throttle...  You get quicker response that way

Well actualy from 1/4 turn, to 1/5 turn. People say it is realy noticable. I think it was discussed before or maybe even in the FAQ section.

I don't think our GS's are equiped with a 1/4 throttle...  There are kits for us to convert to 1/4  (ok...  maybe not realy kits, but DIY mods that you need parts from 10 different bikes.)

hmm i spose i could do that but i dont see the point. well i can see the point but im happy with how much i have to twist the throttle,

servus,

mmm i like the usd forks twin discs, if i can find a set cheep ill do that, i don't like fairings i don't want to pretend my bike is a gsxr, it already has the seat unit.
cheers jim

any more ideas folks???

what did you do already to the bike ?

its on the bottom of my messages
i have put on a gsxr subframe and seat unit, pod filters and a rejet, a bandit 600 4.5inch back wheel, heavy duty front springs, a sv650 rear shock, steel braided brake lines, umm i think thats it oh yeah a modimied r6 link pipe with a quill race can(sounds fu£$en cool) yep thats it all

sportier bars maybe?

What all goes into that 1/5 throttle? Isn't that basically a stock 01+ throttle?

It's a 1/5 turn throttle for the SV650 slapped onto the GS.

Hey Hmmmmmmmmnz...do you have pics of your bike online? i'd like to see it if there's some floating around somewhere...

how about an undertail

Rear wheel hugger?

Reflectorecotomy? (Puts the reflector flush against the plastic)

Custom ground Cam? (Possible, but expensive...)

If you're feeling very (multiply that very by about 12) ambitious, shaft drive (hahah yeah right!)

Makenize's new high-mount that I'm drooling over? (I know you've already got an exhaust, but that dual high-mount is so awesome.)

Turn signals?

GPS?

Bigger brakes? (those twin discs sound slightly BEYOND AWESOME)

Gear indicator? (I have to say that would be kinda cool)

If you are feeling really nuts you could try to devise some weird ram air intake system. (Actually that wouldn't be as bad as trying to go shaft drive, LOLOLOL)

Bike neon? (I can't say I would.)

Another one that would be wild, but very very very awesome would be to mill the block to get higher compression. Even a half point could mean really huge power gains. (This would be complicated, I've done it on cars before, but never an air cooled engine.) We're talking 15% or maybe even 25% more power than you make now.

heres some pics



i think the front end will be my next mod, i dont know what sort of hugger i can get, i had one on it but its to skinny for the new fat back wheel

servus,

smaller turnsignals

polisch the aluminium parts

tankmodding

dragbar with raiser

footpegs

mirrors

and many more things!

 Your bike has a huge ass; there I said it...

Is that rear section bolted on?
