Thread: 990 Sm

Picking up my new steed tomorrow morning. Orange 990 SM from Redline in Loughborogh. Cant wait

Is it too early to be asking about mods and extras?
I will be trying to do something with the fuelling to try to smooth the snatchy throttle response.
Will let you know how we get on.

Good work dude, if you have some wedge left get a 16 tooth front sproket and a set of tasty cans...

i thought the snatchy throttle was no more an noticable issue for the 08's ??

Only done about 30 miles but already getting used to the throttle response. What a bike. I did think that after the Gsxrs I may have been a little disappointed in the performance, all I can say is try one and you will know what a great bike it really is. Cant wait to get the first service done and a few minor tweaks. It really can pull your shoulders out of joint in the lower gears. What FUN!!!!!!
Does anyone find the gear selector a little high?

it is adjustable..

What I was saying is it seems high to me as it comes from the factory.I found it a little difficult changing up. Will have it lowered soon. The gear box is no-where near as smooth as the suzukis but hey, cant have everything can we?
