Throttle position dont matter with a wet kit, Ive had a comnpletly closed throttle and the nitrous button stick on, it just keeps screaming its balls off :shock: :shock: Closed throttle out of control wheelies are scarey.....

Its happened to me twice and once to MFDB while riding my bike, I swapped out the switch for a heavier one and now no more shitstained undies :lol:

Screw that! I am perfectly happy getting messed up with a semi-stock bike.

I rode a bike with one and did not like it at for my rideing style.Just didnt like the way it felt it might have also been the bike to since it wasn't mine.I just didnt like the soft hit but thats my own opinion.

FWIW, I just installed a 13oz unit on my 89 CR500. Im only 150 lbs/5'-7" and I really like the way the bike rides now. I DID blow through a turn or 2 due to lack of engine braking..., but overall, I really like the tractability, and now the engine doesnt stall as easy. I am pretty new to this bike, and I admit to not having a great deal of 'skill' on it. Im used to my XR600, but plenty o' seat time on the CR sure get me more used to it

Thanks for the info but I like two stroke style power delivery and hence do not need a FFW.
