  1. Secondary TPS

    Nonsense. The primary throttle position is controlled by only one thing: your wrist. Tb only lets you fiddle with the secondary throttle position.

  2. Secondary throttle plate removal

    Re: Question The fact that your MPG went down after removing the secondaries is indeed counter-intuitive. Assuming the only change you made to the bike was removing the secondaries, and your riding style, typical riding conditions, and method of filling the tank and calculating MPG remained...

  3. Secondary throttle plate removal

    I think that's a great question. It'd make tuning so much simpler if those pesky L tables weren't complicating things. But given that they're there, it'd be nice just to know the logic that the ECU uses to determine which set of maps to use. The conventional wisdom around here is that L...

  4. Secondary throttle plate removal

    True and false. If you command the secondaries open any more than they are programmed to be in the stock map, your bike will be inhaling more air than the "F" tables tell the bike it's inhaling, and it will therefore run lean. How much more air is the question, and the consensus around here...

  5. Secondary throttle plate removal

    False. There is no separate secondary TP position map for idle. The secondary map is indexed by RPM and gear position. For any of gears 1-5, you can set the secondaries to any position you like, and as long as you're in one of gears 1-5, your secondaries will obey. Now there is a separate...

  6. Difference in Pod Filters

    I've never heard of the smaller filters you wrote about. The standard K&Ns that folks use definitely fit, though tightly, under the bearclaw--at least on the R3T. I'm pretty sure they fit under the regular rocket's bearclaw too. No tune I've come across distinguishes between small and large...

  7. fuel specification is different for the Touring

    The only physical difference I know of between the standard and touring is the exhaust, downstream of the header. it'd interesting to know how different the flow characteristics are between the two.

  8. I Want a Tach for my R3T

    I bought a cheap tach made by Equus off the shelf at my local O-Reilly auto parts store. It cost about 30 bones. I mounted it to my handlebar using a fifty cent pipe clamp from Home Depot wrapped in electrical tape. The mount is a bit ghetto and I plan on finding something a bit more elegant at...

  9. TORS

    I was not aware that the opening of the intake valves occurs before the exhaust valves are completely shut. My understanding is that the intake and exhaust valves are never open at the same time. The way I understand it, during the exhaust stroke the piston is coming up pushing exhaust through...

  10. Throttlemeister Weight

    I have this thing. It works and only costs six clams... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... OTORS:1123

  11. Rivco Risers for R3T - found a longer clutch cable

    Excellent info! I just sent Joe an email. The proof's in the pudding, so be sure to let us know how the cable works once you have it installed.

  12. Final Drive Drain and Fill Plug Torque

    Anyone have a service manual handy and can tell me the proper torque for the final drive drain and fill plugs? I have a 2008 R3T, if it matters...

  13. Final Drive Oil Change

    I just passed 600 miles on my 2008 R3T. So I changed the oil, filter, and even the drain plug washers and o-ring, just like the manual said. The only suprprise was that the oil (Mobil 1 Racing 4T 15W-50) cost me 55 USD per 4-liter jug, of which I had to buy two! My question is about the final...

  14. R3T risers

    That doesn't sound too difficult, even for me. I was hoping I wouldn't have to mess with the throttle cables, and it sounds like I won't. Thanks!

  15. R3T risers

    I just ordered a set of these for my R3T. The description on the Rivco site says that "some minor re-routing of cables is required." Any one know how minor the rerouting is? Will this rerouting require me to detach and reattach any of the cables?
