To swap or not?

It will pretty certainly need rejetting IMO.

You won't see much benefit power wise without that and it will probably run a bit rough.

I'm more familiar with FI bikes/remapping, however you will prob need a dyno/variety of needles to get the best results. If you have a google you might be able to find the configurations that someone with the same set up used.

Na you won't, just swapping the can over , you'll be fine,it won't cause any harm at all and sound awesome.

If you're after power gains and such, then a full system/re-jet/re-filter & dyno time or different bike are worth looking at, and that isn't what the original poster was talking about, but the SV is a good package for what it is and a can just makes it sund as it should, don't mokey around with the air filter, needles/jet's or anything else unless it's done in the spirit of "playing about" as it will return very little.

i would agree with you, however its a full race system.

It seems to runn fine?but i'll get it dyno tested and jetted in the future, is it fine to ride for now? or should i do this asap?

Depends how rich/lean etc it is running. You have to make the judgement for yourself, but IMO there is a possibility that you could knacker your engine.

Its your decision at the end of the day!

If it's a standard bike and all you've changed is the can, then it'll be fine and run without any damage to the engine at all, you won't be the first or last to do it.

If you've money to burn or need peace of mind, then feel free, I wouldn't for just that.

Cheers Mark.

Get the full system then! Jets are cheap!

[rictus01]

if it's a full system but standard jets and air filter it'll be running a bit rich, few pops & bangs, and consumption will be up a bit, but you won't do any damage, OK you're no maximising the benefits, but if you're happy just use it like that.
