#22968 2005Roadstar (User) Proper Prior Planning Prevents PissPoorPerformance Expert Boarder Posts: 562 Another AIS Question 5 Years, 1 Month ago   From what I've been reading, it seems the main reason for removing the AIS is to eliminate back-firing and popping on deceleration. If this is the case, and I did have that problem but getting the carb rejetted took care of it, what other benefits, other than cosmetic, are to be gained by removal of the AIS? And since it's already been rejetted, will removal of the AIS mean I need to rejet again? Thanks!!

Gold Boarder Posts: 764 Re:Another AIS Question 5 Years, 1 Month ago   If you have no pop'in, then removing the AIS for you would be purely cosmetic and no it won't effect your jetting at all.   Logged     My Album   The administrator has disabled public write access. #22980 06MidnightStar (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 768 Re:Another AIS Question 5 Years, 1 Month ago   Aaron: Removing the AIS relieves the popping on decel as a fringe benefit; however, the primary purpose is to clean up the front and left side of the bike. I just completed that task myself, last weekend, and the Road* does have cleaner look now. It also makes the engine much easier to clean, if you're a &quot;neat and clean&quot; fanatic like me.

I've been reading over the articles on AIS removal in the Tech Tips and it sounds like a pretty straight-forward operation. And I agree; it will definitely clean up the motor quite a bit. Thanks again!!
