I am thinking about doing the TRE mod to my 03 GSXR 600. Do you think I could get some pro's and con's please? Thanks everybody. Also which resistor should I use 15000 or 6800?

First of all use the 15000 resistor. Pros more power u can feel when you open up the throttle, due to your timing no longer being retarded so you get more accelaration. The cons is if you dont have one with a switch its tough on cold starts. also your revlimiter is gone. But I strongly recommend getting one.

yea, pretty much what ^^^^^^ said. I would do it but get the switched ones.

Seeing how we lost previous discussions about this topic, here are some sites with info: http://www.maxlean.com/motorcyclepages/tre.htm http://www.81x.com/bugman/gixxermods I didn't realize you loose the revlimiter. That might be a problem for me.

I am also at a high altitude. Will this cause any problems? Will I have to make modifications to my PCIII?

no it shouldn't make any changes, I'm at 5000ft and it doesn't need any special attention.

you dont lose your rev limiter!! :laughingr Not trying to be mean, but you don't lose that. I have the "Non-switchable" one on mine and I still have my rev limiter and it starts easy on 50 degree mornings here. I just push the start button once and she runs fine, no restarting. But you do "not" lose the rev limiter.

I guess the rev limiter wouldn't care what gear your in.

I have the switchable one and cold starts it runs kinda bad at first until it gets warm, and the reason being is because you idle is dropped like 300 rpm's or so with it on I heard that you do lose the rev limiter with it on, I dont know personally yet, cause I shift before i hit it.

this is true, you do not lose your rev. limeter :thumbup:

And another thing, people say it drops your idle. Mine doesn't change from before I had it on unless I pull the clutch in, then it drops, but only while the clutch is engaged. Which is why I think I don't have a problem with cold starts. Anyways, I would get it, you won't be dissapointed. Later :thumbup:

If you know your bike you can def. feel the difference with it switched on or off, greater throttle response. I've also noticed that it makes roll ons alot easier, i guess the bottom line is you wan't everybit of power that the bike u paid for is capable of achieving, thus said an $8.00 mod to achieve pistons hitting top dead center "yeah, you'll feel the difference".

if u want to pay $100 for one :hmmm: that has safties and doesnt mess up ur neutral map... here you go. www.motorcycleradar.com Go to the very bottom of the page. I like this unit cause i can set the map for what ever gears i want. My only complaint is that he is out of stock alot and takes a while to get back in stock. but hey, maybe -300rpm is ok with some people.

your only neg. 300 when your on the clutch...nothing one turn of the idle adj. can't fix, thats if u even use the clutch. but if you get your bike mapped with tre on it is a fixed map so your neutral map is your new map.....just my 02 :D....but i guess it's all a preference thing.

yea it only works on the 00+ 750 01+ 600 & 1000. the 1998-99 750's are fuel injected and lockhart-phillips sells ivan's t.r.e.?

the 1998-99 750's are fuel injected and lockhart-phillips sells ivan's t.r.e.? fuck that, gotta be a misprint....i 99.9% they didn't make them for non-fuelinjected bike.....theres always that .01 though :headscrat

fuck that, gotta be a misprint....i 99.9% they didn't make them for non-fuelinjected bike.....theres always that .01 though :headscrat he's right about the 98-99 750 being fuel injected. I'm not sure if they make the ivans for it, but the other brand ones I've never seen. actually I've got a lockhart book here at my desk, lemme look. Yea, its the 98+ 750, 01+600 and 01+1000 that they make the TRE for. :thumbup:

Ok so I just got a gsx-r750 with a TRE switch, but I dont know which way means is ON or OFF. As of now I have no idea if its on or off either lol. YES THATS STUPID OF ME, but let a noobie know! :clap:

IF IT'S ON WHEN YOU PULL IN THE CLUTCH WITH THE BIKE REVED AT ABOUT 3000 RPM'S THE RPM'S WILL DROP BY ABOUT 300...IF IT'S OFF WHEN U PULL THE CLUTCH IN NOTHING WILL HAPPEN. AND THATS HOW YOU KNOW :thumbup:

Actually if you have the bike revved up to like 3000 with the throttle advance (some call it the choke :infrandom ), then it should drop down like 1500 or so. But either way, if it's on and revved up and you pull in the clutch, it will drop. Later :cool:
