Question About Ivanising

[brooker81]

Spoke to guy guy last night who has a thou... Im getting bike ivans in june by mike but have a few concerns over what this bloke said last night so gonna ask a few questions he said.
1) caused his bike to be over fueled at lower speeds
2)Said you have to work bike more as gets gunked up if you dont use top end/ middle more
3)Smells over fuely in town when being followed by friends.
4)Said gives u abou 25% more mid range and 50% more top end but doesnt really help low end.
Im not sure if he is talking poo or not if he is on here sorry if i have caused offence if he does, i have only heard good things about ivans have any of you experienced anythig like this or is this just his nike setup incorectly? He was running yoshi can 4-2-1 and k&n
Any ideas guys/girls.

First negative comment I've seen about Mikes Ivanising!

Not getting confused with a dynojet kit is he?

[sadlonelygit]

50% more top end.................hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. bar room bullshit. possibly 10hp if you do the portmatching.

all it does is un-engineer all the work yamaha did for it to meet the various emissions regs throughout the world. it gives a nice strong linear power delivery up to where the cams start to work, then it flies.
single best mod you can do.

     Wow .. yes indeed Locksmith .. this might be a first!
 
Mike will be along in due course .. and he will almost certainly have a few questions .. before offering any answers .
 
For starters:
 
Who is the guy with the duff Gen 1 ?
Who Ivanised the Bike ?  (it may not be one of Mike's!)
When was the job done .. mileage not months ?
Was the Invanising job done before he got it .. or was it his idea ?
Where did he get the bike .. Private or Stealer ?
What's the mileage reading now ?
Who Services the Bike?
When was the last Service done ?
 
And so on ..... The more answers and info you can provide now the better chance Mike will have of helping you. 
 
Sorry to stick my size ten paddle in here Mike .. I just couldn't resist it

[brooker81]

just what the guy said he told me that ivanasing isnt worth bothering with unless you do track days or ride with some beans,prob more bullshit sorry i dont really read items before i post, i will try to do that more often im not listening to anyone about bikes anymore ! unless they are on here 

[locksmith]

There's plenty of bullshit here as well

[brooker81]

  funny that isnt it

[ghostbiker]

Wow, arse and elbow indeed LOL
Had mine full monty by mike and its better at all revs as far as I can see.
Had it on a dyno run 2 times and both times they have cometed on just how good the fuel air mix is. And how smooth power and torque curves are.
It's all subjective but other than suspension upgrades its the best money I ever spent on the gen 1

Mike does a fine job despite his disgusting tan.

Go for it.

[Jazz999]

Is it something that can only be done on thou bikes?

[jools]

58 days and 12 hours and counting until i get mike to do his magic
cant wait

Can't say I've experienced any of those issues since Mike Ivanised mine about 18 months ago.
I don't do trackdays, and as about 80% of my riding is within the M25, it doesn't get thrashed very often, but it runs well at all speeds.
Don't be put off getting it done!

Brooker, the guy you were talking to is a class 1 idiot.


Class 1 idiots are of the genus Arseholius Cretinus, are found mainly in bars where they can be seen trying to make friends, have an ego the size of the planet and are not to be trusted. They are deeply, willfully ignorant. It takes a special kind of person to work at being that stupid. Years of practice.


I've never heard such utter crap about a bike in the 30 years I've been riding.


'Smell over fuelly in town when being followed by friends'. Jeezuz. It gets 'gunked up' does it. Ha. The last bike this guy owned was probably a Suzuki GT380 two stroke back in the 70s. And if it gave 50% more top end, it would be knocking out 170bhp, the same as a 2013 R1. In fact, did you even see his Fazer? I bet it really was a GT380.


Take a couple of hours reading the threads on this forum, and just look at the incredibly precise information about Ivanising by countless members. The level of detail and the amount of knowledge that we have here is colossal. It should tell you one thing about this bloke:


Avoid.

[brooker81]

I'm defo getting it done rest assured. I'm now also counting down the days ! Hate pricks who talk shit

I'm defo getting it done rest assured.

Good lad!

Chortle. Maybe he was just trying to impress you, eh?

[Jazz999]

Thought so, cheers for confirming :-)

[jackojet]

The bloke in the pub is talking shite!
Met one of these know it all foccers while I was sat next to my fazer in the carpark at Matlock, quietly smoking a fag, minding my business, he cabbaged me for ages about what he thought was best for my bike, until I told him he was talking crap.
Mike full montied mine a few years ago and it goes brilliant .
It starts better, low revs no surging, just smooth power from tickover to the redline.
The midrange is very strong and by 7k you need to hang on!
The set up works well with a good end can, I used a Bos carbon with exup headers, I now have a rare full akra system and the low 2k revs seem even stronger. It is even more ballistic at high revs.
For your Dad pootling along is a breeze, even better than standard as the low speed surge as you open the throttle is smoothed out, so no worries there. You can make good progress and clean overtakes from any revs.
 
Its brilliant and makes a great engine even better.
 
Mike is brilliant and you won't regret it

[jackojet]

Sorry for saying brilliant alot
Forgot to add, I use mine for taking the missus long rides and the added torque and midrange is even more useful, and the smoothness makes the ride nicer, meaning you can cruise along with ease.
On your own and when you want a good blast, the power is awesome, it just wants you to keep feeding the gears in.

Is it something that can only be done on thou bikes?

List of Ivans carb kits and remaps here - http://www.ivansperformanceproducts.com/carbs.htm

Not sure about your 02-03 600, but I think it's the same engine and set up as my old 99 600.  They run on the rich side, nice and smooth too, so not quite the same need to re-jet.  I had a can and a K&N on mine, that's the one thing I miss about my old 600, boy was it a screamer, what a racket.

If you get hold of a gen1 that's not had it done (loads and loads have), well it's a must do mod, never mind the extra power, it just makes so much smoother and nicer to ride.

[pilgrim]

+1 to all of the above
Did my own Ivanising and can only add what others have said is absolutely true and matey boy down the pub was talking through his big fat hairy ringpiece! Got the slip-on kit at the mo, might go Full Monty at some time just because, but will probably get that done by the Ivanater on one of his future trips over.
Even so, cant fault it, smoother, starts easier, picks up better, no flat spots, excellent
