Electronic Jetting Kit. Similar to a power commander but simpler just affects fuelling at a few throttle levels, not timing etc.

I'm keeping an eye out. All a bit out of budget for now though. Hopefully by winter time.

Really don't want brakes that are too sharp on an off-roader, 'scary' is when you ride knobblies on wet tarmac.......... ![]()

There is literally nothing happening with the front brake right now. It feels like someone has oiled the pads and the rotor looks oily too. Taking it apart to have a look. New pads ordered.
+ I've never accidentally hit the rev limiter on other bikes. Has happened a few times on this one already ![]()

I was shocked how quickly my Suzuki DRZ400 would gain revs - and the low gearing makes it easy to hit rev limit in lower gears... nice bike but as I said too tall for me.
