My '05 came with stock exhaust when i got it, but I ended up putting a holeshot complete system on. Its fairly loud, but I wear ear plugs when i ride anyway due to wind noise so exhaust sound isn't an issue. The only time I'm self conscious of the db's is when its early early in the morning and...

Found some at Bike Bandit. waiting on shipping. Thanks anyway!

Hello all. Just getting pulse on these screws. I noticed some rattling and after looking around, found that the two screws that hold in the plastic radiator side covers were missing from one side. Anyone have a set or know where to get just the screws? here's a picture, they're the two screws...

I started mine up and took it for a couple minute ride. the batter was trickle charged for a week or so, and I only had to start it twice to keep it running. The only thing that i was disappointed in was the front tire got low. i just kept it in the garage all winter, and it was a brand new...

I had a CM400T as my first bike when i was 18. It really was awesome and if i hadn't ruined it, it would have been a keeper as a 2nd bike. sometimes its more fun to wind out a smaller machine than hardly use half throttle to break the law.

thanks, i'm happy to see some updates to this! I just wish they made it sortable.. . ..

well, you guys were right. while it wasn't a kinked line ( i wish it was) it was still a fuel feed problem. everything is all good now. the issue was my own stupidity :)

running on two cylinders, advise? and what plugs for 05? here's the short story, whether any of it is related, i dont know as of yet.. a number of weeks ago i put my AIS kit in from holeshot. all worked very well. rode it to and from work a few days and a couple other 1 to 2 hour rides. No...

+1 i hate sweattin my balls of on the way to or from work. eventually i'll get a mesh jacket with the pads and all, similar to my normal textile one. or at least something with more air flow and more than 2 vents (s'what i have.) once the wind is hot no matter how fast you go, its to...

I follow the ATGATT philosophy and haven't got a mesh jaket. to hot to ride when its over a certain temp.

Got the chance to ride to work today after the silicon sealant from my AIS removal had time to dry over night. It took care of just about all popping and backfires and so forth that i had. Love it! It looks very clean now too. easy access to clean the top of the engine.

Just finished installing my Holeshot AIS block off. Man it was hot out. sweating my balls off. Anyway, it looks a ton cleaner under the fuel tank and saved about 3 lbs.... lol. I can't test drive to see if it takes care of some of the popping til tomorrow.

finally ready to do this on my bike. I now mostly understand why its nice. After getting my holeshot set up on and together, i have a tone of backfires and popping coming off the throttle. I know holeshot makes a kit for our gen1s, Suzuki DL-1000 V-Strom TFI Tuning Box , Does anyone else...

got my bike back from the shop for tuning. after installing the full holeshot comp exhaust, and timing advance, plus KNN filter and airbox mod. I did not get a pre packaged jet kit, I had the shop modify and replace what was needed. I ended up with 133 hp and 72 ft/lbs. Not to bad really...

got the call that my bike is ready for pic up.... 10 minutes prior to the shop closing for the day. i was at the range, so couldn't get there in time. lame. BUt, it should be dyno tuned and purring when i get it tomrrow!

so i am taking my bike in on thursday, and do not have a removal kit or block offs. does removing this affect anything with the air fuel ratios to the point where i would want to remove it before i take it in next week? or if i remove it AFTER the tuning, will anything change?

hey dustin, since it sounds like you've done side cases on both gen1 and 2, do you know if the racks for gen1 use or replace the grab rails? if not, how do they actually attach?

Saturday/Sunday i got my holeshot 3 degree timing advance installed. as well as the comp headers installed. no pics yet! comp header with 14' slip on sounds really deep and mean. so far so good, i just have to re jet now, and i should be done!

Hey markowinnipeg, I just asked the same question a little while ago, link to the tread: http://www.998cc.org/forum/gen-i-mods/14467-gen1-airbox-mod.html As for jetting, i should assume you would want to. Im sure you can stick with the stock air filter, but something rated to flow more...

Installed the slip on portion of my full holeshot comp exhaust. finished blacking out some things, rear sets, side cover things, radiator guards.. installed K&N air filter, and did the airbox mod.
