Yeah, the soft rev mod, flapper, and pair mods are all relevent to all RC's. Are the 02's over there still sp1's? I believe it should be an sp2.

N.Ireland eh? Never been, but got mates there

One lives near Enniskillen if you know there...

Anyways...

YEH! Do the free mods

Flapper valve is to keep the noise down when around town aparently... so get that sorted.

Soft Rev limiter... iv not done this yet... but iv heard its well worth while.

check this

and do a search for the text

"We have had several stock RC51’s on our dyno"

read that as it explains it

If you want to actually do the mod to your bike then check here

if you ever make it over here look out for the nw200 races or the ulster gp [fastest road races in world nw+200mph highest speed -ulster +130mph averge lap] mind you roads not as good as scotland.

hi mate im from manchester uk. just wondered if you removed the flapper valve and if you did did it make any difference, only wanting to do some mods to my sp1, its got arrow titainiums, 42 rear sprocket, braided hoses pc111 which hasnt really made a difference (think it needs rolling road) and thinking of putting kns on.
cheers

The flapper valve allows more air into the bike and apparently the more air you stick in an SP2 the better! Also I believe it gets rid of the rev hickup around halfway on the rev range

With the mdos u got make sure you get the PCIII properly mapped... try

they have alot of PCIII maps
