Suzuki GSX 1400 Throttle Bodies

Post by Rossco »

Right.......

Having acquired a Megasquirt and Jolt off Chodjinn :nw I had a look at injection manifolds for the 455. Over priced comes to mind so opted to check out bike throttle bodies.

Picked up a set of GSX 1400 bodies. These have two sets of butterfly valves in each body one of which appears to be some form of choke actuated by a stepper motor or something similar.

Question is do I need that second butterfly valve when using Megasquirt and Jolt?

Cheers

Stops eager bikers totalling their bike on the first twist apparantly.

Cheers Elliot, I thought they might be superfluous.
