I can't edit my original thread, but wanted to post up what the issue was and the ultimate fix: Issue: Many of the intake and exhaust valves were in bad condition and there was a 15% leakage occurring. Piston rings were also starting to show wear. Reason: Theory is that dirt was getting past...

Great, thanks all! It sounds like as long as I stick with a 2014 to 2016 I should have pretty good confidence in swapping all the parts I'm concerned with. That gives me some good options.

Just like most Star Trek episodes :p To transfer the panels the tank would need to go with, and the tank sounds a bit challenging if for some reason the electronics connecting to the tank aren't the same... Ergh

I have a 2013 that has an engine issue that I'm debating whether it makes sense to fix, or sell and upgrade into a Gen 2 with the inherent updates. Contingent on that is being able to outfit it with the gear I have on it and trust for the conditions I ride in (cannot afford to re-outfit another...

ECU Mapping Details Researching S10 ECU mapping options here in the states here's what I've found thusfar and would appreciate any other thoughts / inputs: Self Flash Options FT ECU: Includes hardware and license for mapping, map as many times as you like. ~$460 2 Wheel Dyno Works: Same setup...

That helps fill in a piece of the puzzle regarding the TBS readings and why they may have been so off from the one in the video, appreciate the details on that. And also good to know about your bike in comparison at similar altitudes and how it struggles a bit at the lower speeds. I might be in...

I was actually curious as to other folks experiences at those speeds, so that is a good frame of reference thanks! I was also actually curious about flash options and what they can do (set the idle higher, etc), so I may DM you on some of your experiences / thoughts if you don't mind. With the...

Good questions, as I remember a guy on this forum talking about discovering a cracked vacuum cap on the right side throttle body on the cap. When I did the TBS both lines were pliable and felt to be in good condition. The airbox has two connections if memory serves, the rubber host connecting...

Sure, I've had all different kinds of bikes over the past almost 40 years of riding and I do have a Tenere 700 as well at this point for the more aggressive rides. However I don't remember the Super 10 having these issues when I first purchased it, which tells me its either 1) Something is still...

It's in first gear. I'm also noticing the slight 'chugging' and 'lurching' at under 13mph even on flat ground.

When I removed and inspected them they were in good repair, not rusted, and seated well. If it was a coil stick, I would feel that across all RPMs / speeds?

Bumpity bump for any other ideas outside of an ECU flash....

Thanks. Reading that thread it recommends doing the TBS (which I just completed) and then if that doesn't address it to get a ECU flash? I'll keep that in mind then, thanks

Results of the TBS What I did Warmed up the engine Installed the Carbtune Pro (don't forget the "T" requirement for the hoses on the left side per the service manual) Took the initial readings Set the white (throttle screw on the right when sitting on the bike facing forward) to 3/4 or 270...

Sorry, wrong terminology but that was the intent / understanding. Starting into it, will confirm results shortly.

Sounds good and makes sense. Reading the various threads / videos on the forum related to this and looks *much* easier than the Valve Clearance repair :) I do have a Carbtune Pro for the sync and will do that today along with the 3/4 adjustment you and others are recommending as the...

Hello all, I recently was having a few performance issues and completed a valve clearance adjustment / replaced plugs / swapped air filter ( see HERE). While this addressed the majority of the problems, I am still seeing the following symptoms and would be interested in thoughts: Idles at...

Results Performed Valve Shim adjustment, new plugs, new air filter, new battery, cleaned throttle bodies Of the 8 valves 5 were outside the min ranges, 2 at the limits, and only 1 in the middle of the range I had to replace / move 7 of the 8 shims Once complete, 6 valves were right in the...

Valve Shim Options Something that might be of interest to others is what valve shim options are out there depending on how precise you are trying to match the clearances. Again these are for the 9.48mm diameter valve shims for the S10. Kits Manufacturer Start Thickness (mm) End Thickness...
