April 5, 200917 yr Hi all, My '99 315r is a little too fiesty for me - is there anything I can do to soften the power delivery a little? Cheers, John
April 5, 200917 yr Try changing the throttle from a 'fast action' one to a 'slow action' one. Throttles Link You could also gear it down a little depending on what setup you have at the moment. Try changing the front sprocket for a 9 tooth one if it's still on the standard 10T one.
April 6, 200917 yr You could lower the compression by putting in an extra 1 or two base gaskets. It will soften the bottom end and somewhat tend to push the power peak further up the rev range.
April 6, 200917 yr Author Thanks Guys. I've ordered a slow action throttle, so I'll see if that helps for starters. Hopefully it'll turn up in time for the weekend! Does anyone know if it's possible to retard the timing a little? Cheers, John
April 6, 200917 yr Does anyone know if it's possible to retard the timing a little? I got you at 3 minutes 5 seconds on section 5. Oh, sorry. Misread that. Retard the Timing....
May 27, 200917 yr Author Have you got the washer in the front pipe still? if not, put one back in! Just had the exhaust apart - I couldn't see any washers in there. But I also couldn't see any washers on the parts diagram!?
May 27, 200917 yr Alright Dave, The washer will be a large one that effectively reduces the diameter of the pipe at the point it bolts to the head. Restricted mopeds have similar thing and it's usually a big washer with a big 'ole and fits between head and exhaust. Dave
