Blipper isn't available on the GSX-S models unfortunately due to the throttle unless you mean something else?

I did mean blipper, is unfortunate that you can't have one.

Find different fuel for a few tanks. I genuinely never thought this could be an issue but it seems bike engines are a lot more sensitive than I thought, Baron Von Grumble's 750 Kawasaki from their recent road trip fired on 3 cylinders due to crap fuel.

So first off I'm pretty offended you compared my bike to Baron's piece of **** .

I absolutely love this GSX, everything about it is great, only put 100 miles on it so far but I’m really impressed.

Don't tell IC3, he's of the "suzukis are gay" circles.

That'll be why he had one then.

I didn't say that, I only asked once on here why GSXRs have that reputation.

Took the K1300R for a post work blast, but between this morning and that i'm thinking there could be something a little wrong. It's not making quite as sweet a noise and idle seems a bit rougher than usual (not bad but not quite the same) and it definately seems to miss quickshifts at lowish revs (which I know ur not supposed to do but it makes great farts ) much more often than usual.

Any ideas if there's anything I can look at? Last fuel i put in was esso 98, I've been a bit less 'regular' since I just moved (used to pretty much be always on agip 98) but previous tank was the same stuff from same station.

I'd be looking at fresh fuel as a start.

If no luck, when was it last serviced? Air filter, fuel filter? IF unsure, change/clean them. Most bikes have a 'tea-bag' filter in the fuel pump.

After than, throttle sync.

Yeah fresh fuel seems to have done it some good, will see if it comes back.

Last servicing was september but that was minor and iirc means no new air filter (and it's a pain to get to on that bike :/). I don't remember seeing that on the maintenance list so might never have been changed :/

Seems your bike's on par with Baron's piece of **** then

(Good news in all seriousness, well done)

What do you think to this Leovince exhaust? I think it'll suit the bike.

Looks great, wotsit sound like?

Captain · 29 May 2018 at 20:52

Not sure, Can't seem to find a good quality video with it running, I've had them in the past and they've always sounded great to me.

What are people's opinions on the DynoJet Quickshifter? It's £191 which is £200 cheaper than the Translogic.

IC3 · 29 May 2018 at 23:53

The sync between these two :eek:

Dynojet has been tuning bikes for longer than I've been alive, I suspect there's an element of success to that. Personally it would be a no brained for me and a quick Google reveals their products and quickshifters in particular to be good quality items so take that in to consideration.

The Dynojet quick shifters don't have a good reputation and unless they've changed the design recently they cut the fuel not the spark, which is not the best way to go about it.

Trans logic are good units, the daddy though are the cordona units.

If you're after a cheaper unit have you looked at the healtech quick shifters? I've been running one on a race bike for the last two seasons and it's been faultless and very easy to setup from the phone app.

I’ve looked at the Healtech shifters, they look like good budget shifters but I prefer the more premium looking Translogic systems.

I’ve had Translogic before so will go with them again.

Look at this sexy exhaust, an absolute bargain for £249 delivered, from supplier to my door within 14 hours, thanks to DPD.
