⚠️ Risk

This product poses a risk of injuries because the improper shape of the internal mechanism of ISC valve can cause the valve operation failure that results in staying the valve in the open position and raising engine idle speed (high as approx. 5000 rpm, when engine is started). This could result to an abrupt and sharp starting of the bike, which could cause a possible accident, especially in case of an inexperienced rider.
