Hi Kev - what is to stop you just removing all of the AIS plumbing, and just blocking up the hole on the exhaust manifold? (and airbox of course).

Is there a sensor that expects some sort of signal? I presume there is a solenoid or some electrical gubbins that operates the AIS valve?

I believe it is possible to remove a similar set-up from the DRZ400S models...

Your advice is as ever appreciated,

Jenny xx

ps. I've just answered my own question - it seems there is a diagnostic/fault code for the AIS (no.D48) if the solenoid isn't working - I wonder if it is possible to fool the system and remove all the plumbing?
