I’m reading good things about Ivan’s Performance needles & jet kits for triples, I’d like to try a set in my S3 ...
I can’t see a shopping facility on their website, have they a U.K. dealer or is it a case of ringing them ?
Anyone tried them and were they worth the investment?
Cheers

Re: Ivan’s performance products
I think this has been covered on facebook, but here goes, on a H2 they are a great idea. I fitted them to one of my H2s and it made the carburation considerably better, improving the surge characteristics etc.. I can't comment on other bikes as I haven't tried them

Re: Ivan’s performance products
They are generally used for reducing the surging on the bigger bikes. Since the 400 is one of the smoothest engines already there's likely very little to gain. And probably not many (if any) people will have fitted them.

Re: Ivan’s performance products
Thanks guys, that didn’t go the way I expected, and considering the cost of them what with import duties / vat etc I think I’ll give them a miss. The bike is slightly woolly midrange that’s all ... I guess the jetting needs a look into - bike has aftermarket carb kit ( I know ) and K2Tec pipes.

Re: Ivan’s performance products
When you say an "aftermarket carb kit" are you meaning non Mikuni Jets and needles etc?
Replace them with genuine Mikuni ones if they aren't already... that could be your problem,
