#146732 MidStar07 (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 559 Re:Let's get real 3 Years, 5 Months ago   Thanks guys....it's advice like this that makes this place great! I'll get the kit and enjoy the fact that I'm going to let my R* breathe for less than half the $$ of a full BAK. It'll look custom and go fast and all that. A titanium needle probably won't ever wear out, and I've actually heard about needles wearing out, at least in dirt bikes. Anyway, I feel much better now   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #146782 eblack (User) Don't force things, just use a bigger hammer Expert Boarder Posts: 432 Re:Let's get real 3 Years, 5 Months ago   Don't want to sound too noisy, but are we talking about the '07 in the "taking the plunge thread" if so aren't they fuel injected?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #146784 Musky (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 15137 Re:Let's get real 3 Years, 5 Months ago   08 is EFI.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #146824 cdrprn (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 416 Re:Let's get real 3 Years, 5 Months ago   This forum is GREAT. I bought a '07 R* instead of the '08 because it was on a clearance price and a great bargain. I don't worry about carb/mix/jet issues because I usually keep my bikes stock. My expereince has been that while there is alot more performance avail in theses bikes from doing mods, the more you change, the more difficult it becomes to diagnose problems when they pop up. But hey, I amazed at what some of you do and how awesome the bikes turn out. Just my .02, I'm old, and use my stock bike as a daily commuter.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #146825 DocShadow (Admin) Hmmmm .... send beer Admin Posts: 17615 Re:Let's get real 3 Years, 5 Months ago   cdrprn wrote: .... and use my stock bike as a daily commuter.

Yeah, one and the same. But as Musky said, the change to FI started this year, '08. Speaking of this, has anyone figured out yet if the '08's are faster than a stock '07. It stands to reason that they would be, but you just never know.

It may be that they are running leaner (and that would be my guess) than the carbed and may not be as fast top end. But then again I am only guessing.   Logged     \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"A mind full of judgment has little room for wisdom\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"   The administrator has disabled public write access. #146846 MidStar07 (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 559 Re:Let's get real 3 Years, 5 Months ago   Yeah, the recent Cycle World test of the 08 indicated it was pretty s-l-o-o-o-w. My guess is that there's more available to that bike with remapping. Does anyone know if the cams are different in the '08?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #146891 Questcap (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3208 Re:Let's get real 3 Years, 5 Months ago   Hey guys there's a jet kit on eBay for cheap money... goin' off auction in 16 hiours.
