Yamaha YICS system on an SV? Saw on svrider.com...
http://www.svrider.com/articles/oct04/modTrain.htm
On this page on the svrider.com site, the author writes about how he installed a setup similar to the Yamaha YICS on his SV, and was able to turn the idle down to 800 rpm. Would that be possible, and has anyone done it, or a how-to on it? And, wouldn't having the idle rpm that low affect the engine oiling at idle? Other than that, I think it would be sweet. The research I've found on the YICS is limited, and it seemed to be a Yamaha fuel efficiency trick in the early 80's. Any thoughts from the SV elite? jason |

Why would you want to turn the tickover down in the 1st place? Its set at 1300rpm for a reason. Turn it down and it idles lik a harley!!

Not that I necessarily want it to sound like a Harley... might be interesting, but I do a lot of stop and go commuting, and if it might save a little fuel, that's fine by me.
