i have an '02 450 s..i cut 7 coils off mine and can tell a slight difference..i may cut 6 more off to get 13 total...will i need to rejet or am i ok with stock?? i have heard it will and it wont work on the 450 but it seems to..any thoughts??
well i had previously cut 7 coils off mine and today i cut 6 more off totaling 2 inches..i have 2.5 inches of spring left..i rode it for a minute and i noticed a little better response...thanks for extra info...so i dont need to rejet...sounds good
i figured you would have already done that robb...
the spring that comes with the kit is already half as short as the stock one...like eric said do not cut the dj spring..
