    The harness on my 450 says wr450 on it, so I’m not sure what the deal is. FEZ

    Don’t say I never help.

    I was just looking elsewhere on the net and it appears that not all bikes had the grey wire. What I couldn’t find was any piece of evidence that stated what bikes/models had it and why:huh:

    Hmm, missed this thread before, but here’s what I know about it. Yes, apparently the grey wire mod makes a noticable difference, particularly on the 450’s, less so on the 250’s (makes sense really). The wire can be set up with a switch if you want, but the switch will have no affect while the bike is actually running as the CDI unit only looks for it on startup. So to switch between WR and YZ maps you have to turn the bike and ignition off then restart.

    I have not checked if mine is done – I must get around to that one day!

    Just a note for future threads, try to pick the title carefully as Hold On doesn’t give us any idea what is in the thread!

    Mata your a ledgend, I tried this modification on the DR on the weekend and crikey it went, It must assist with the instant aceleration section of the power range, because when I hit the starter I think the bike just took off and threw me off the back. I must have hit my head because I think i was out for a while,
    Is there another way of connecting the wire to your body,them aligator clips are sharp.
    Was thinking maybe reducing the length of wire would assist in voltage transfer thus increasing impact from the modification, and you could attach the wire to,,,,say your scrotum:ohmy:

    Thanks for the tips and I will be sure to help others with your suggestion in the future.

    Did it work like a short sharp shock does with Bulls, you know wink wink, with the “response time”

    Seriously though to emulate this I’ve retarded the ign on the some of my bikes in the past, including the YZ, helps low end a fair bit.
