EXUP Eliminator Plug and Play any good?

[PieEater]

I had no EXUP at all for a couple of years on my Gen 1, I just got used to it, just don't expect any power below 3K, it will pull away below that, but it is limp. Seizing open is a lot better than it seizing closed.

It sound's like you're saying - if it's broke don't fix it, it'll perform like shit at low revs, but don't worry as you won't know any better, there are two levels of shit performance you may be lucky enough to have a less shit experience !!!

In terms of advice for a new owner I'm wandering how beneficial this is, did you get your EXUP fixed, would you reccomend getting the EXUP fixed or leaving it seized?

Given that a major part of the appeal of these bikes is the ability to pull from low revs thanks to the EXUP (Ivans kit & 4 degree advancer also help) there is no way you're experiencing the bike as it was designed if you have a non functioning EXUP. If you got the bike cheap as a hack to faff around on then sure leave it as is and get your moneys worth but there are probably better options out there.
