2007 Suzuki GSXR 600 "SET" Valve Removal Video Tutorial

[@swraerokits]

as soon as you remove the cables from the servo the valve on the exhaust will go to full open and stay like that because it's spring loaded to the open position

[@nicksmith4962]

Like this video, my FI light was on, finally figured out that my servo gear was destroyed and the servo was making the light go on. Cutting the #30 wire was the trick, saved 60 bucks by not buying the servo buddy!!! Thanks for this video.

[@suyeonlee7917]

I did this to my GSXR600, after watching this clear tutorial and no regrets, just one thing, pull out wire from plug, don't cut it ! Thanks for video really helped.

[@rudyshoplopez7366]

Su Yeon Lee is there a difference??

[@Gideon_Judges6]

​@@rudyshoplopez7366there is if you ever want to put it back.

[@07jdom]

Thanks dude... All the written instructions in the world don't compare to just seeing you do it!

[@motoshwack13]

did it last night and that stupid light is finally gone.. it was actually really easy and the camera helps you spot out exactly where everything is... was a little worried about cutting the wire but after i did it was smooth sailing.. took the tank the whole way off and it made it really easy... took about 25 mins to do it all.. thanks great vid..

[@adigotti]

This is for those who want more throtle response and more flow, i just did this my bike the other day and it works amazing no joke its the real deal. Okay so make sure u disconect your Battery and your ECU then take all the set valve cables appart etc... MAKE SURE YOU CUT PIN # 30 BLACK BROWN GREEN... Make sure you cut the pin OR YOU WILL GET A F1 LIGHT CODE c46 aka SET Valve Failure. Great Video Man I Will Try To Make An HD One ....

[@jfashner]

Worked like a charm. The mechanics love this thing; the install an aftermarket exhaust, predictably the FI like starts flashing, they charge another $150 to diagnose the light (which thy already know why it's flashing) then they charge another 3-400 to map the bike. What a racket.

[@manuelvaldes6200]

14 yrs old video You are the man!!! Thanks buddy super helpful

[@ajsperla48]

So, I plan to tackle this project this weekend. My 06-750 has intermittent FI light and a squeal/clicking noise from the right side, rear fairing. Though is video could have had better lighting, I do believe it will solve my FI light, noise issue, and give me better throttle response. I had an 06-600 a few year ago that I installed a M4 exhaust and shortly after had an FI light. The dealer took care of this for me (me not knowing what actually took place) but they said they "opened the exhaust back pressure butterfly valve". After they made my FI light go away, the throttle responded much better and no more FI light. Hope this leads to a "self-fix" on my current bike. Thanks for the vid!

[@gixxerryder4136]

Perfectly safe to remove. Remove it with pulling the #30 wire don't cut it. Also, install a power commander and you will notice a huge difference. The "bog down" issue in the lower rpms is gone and much smoother throttle response.

[@phillystopstory]

perfect video I did it for my 07 gsxr 750 and I had no problems, if you can't do it after this video you should be outside waiting for the short bus

[@wheelsandwatches]

Top video. Sorted my gazer 750 k6 today. Spot on. Only thing I would say is you don't have to remove the whole side faring, I just unscrewed the points and there was enough room to reach the appropriate parts.

[@VelvetRevolver4036]

Thanks for the Video I can confirm that once the cables are removed the SET valve it is open. Check with your manual to disconect the wire as i did. I can also tell you that the bike runs better and it gained 2hp.

[@steviefpv]

Done this to my bike this morning worked a treat! Thanks for uploading the part that took the longest was cutting the number 30 wire I must of counted to it and from it up to 34 about 100 times to make sure it was the write wire to cut lol no more red warning like and f1 code = WiN !

[@JakeWildsJaxFL]

Thanks a lot for the effort put into throwing this video out. I was starting to tear into mine to throw the Full Yosh TRC on and was like WTF?!? -Thanks again bro!

[@supermassive87]

Thanks for the video! Used this and some other forums to diagnose my red FI light. Bought a 600 K6 2nd hand yesterday and only realised the light today! Luckily just a C46 error due to the fact a previous owner had removed the set valve wires but apparently not removed wire #30 from the CPU. Cant comment on whether the ride is better or not but it runs beautifully with the valve set on open :)

[@zetto156]

For what it's worth - since removing the SET valve from the 2006(thus fixing the very obnoxious ticking sound the bad servo was making), I've refueled my bike twice from empty. I meticulously keep track of all fuel and maintenance on my vehicles. The first tank was 44.2 miles per gallon, the second was 38.7mpg. The least mpg I've gotten in 13 fillups was 35.52; the maximum was 51.06. My average fuel economy is 41.48, so both of the post-removal results are within an acceptable tolerance ...

[@AL197845w34832479823]

you are a dumbass...the valve has nothing to do with mileage since is AFTER the engine you stupid shithead

[@SuperSherzer]

this was a big help gained power and fi code light went off thanks

[@dan72008]

Thanks! This helped a lot. Was getting the FI error because of this damn thing. Took it off works great now! You da man!

[@PacoGP17]

Nice it's pin 30 that needs to be cut u saved me a lot of research my first time putting my machine on the track the f1 light came on I hate that stupid valve I'll remove it and my pc3 will handle the proper tuning

[@jncofool311]

This was a great instruction. I did this few years back looking at this video. Please stfu haters and assholes. The guy did his best and it was easy and good. My bike runs perfect because of it.

[@MrPaffPaf]

i support your comment but i have question why you remove your exup i read many many pages on internet but i still dont get it why you remove it do you think that yamaha suzuki kawasaki engineers are fools to add it on bike

[@motoshwack13]

p.s. the valve automatic position once you take the cables off is wide open so you don't have to take your exhaust off to do it.. just disconnect the cable and the valve will be wide open... didn't even have to take off my right side farrings...

[@slinginghotlead]

thanks for the up load the servo motor froze up on me last season and ive been wanting to get rid of that fi code ever since. i have to admit i was a little nervous cutting that wire but all is well. thanks again

[@Ishvires]

IF YOU READING THIS COMMENT, YOU ARE VERY LUCKY! Do not uncut any wires (including black one if you got L1 or 2011+ gixxers or you will be in trouble, use servo buddy instead and search for "2011 750 set valve mod" thread in gixxer COM forum and MAKE SURE YOU READ IT BEFORE YOU GO

[@Hypersonik]

Ishvires Nice one! This helped loads. Thanks!

[@Ishvires]

Hypersonik good to know bro

[@adriankjnn3890]

Relates to 2006 600 aswell?

[@tz1]

bookmarked. i'm going to do this when my exhaust comes in. thanks mang.

[@chrissullivan1756]

Plan on doing it to my gsxr 1000 . Thank u for video good job

[@kevinbacon1814]

I just installed a two brothers slip on,I left the set vave and never cut the cables or wiring.I have no f1 code light and I still have all the power.I suggest not removing any of the set system.It was put on for a reason.Your call!

[@rafaymirza4480]

what if we just pull out the cables from pulley motor so that excv pulley works but does not do anything since cables are out. and set valve will remain open

[@khanhdang1980]

I have the akra shorty 07 mounted on my gsxr k8. Very simple to do it, cut the cat right before the weld. And grind the weld down till it fits.

[@bfulop]

@Duyer18 You don't have to get A Power Comander, You can actually remap the stock ECM on Suzuki's. And yes if you do the set valve delete it will give you sharper throttle response. I have the same year and HAD the same pipe. I recently upgraded to an Akra hex shorty. I don't have a power commander either, i had my stock ECM remapped.

[@liltoenail1354]

Does pin 30 just cut off the report to the ECU about the set valve or does it cut off the FI light from reporting any problem?

[@freshboydodo]

thanks for the video bub. it was nice. really clean.

[@chrishill1986]

@fergiy89 the valve is spring loaded and it will automatically stay open. the cables keep it closed

[@jamesscott2174]

My servo on my zx6r is shot...i was wondering if you can remove the servo and valve....guess so. Ppl have been saying low end power is lost but mid range and higher is alittle better. Sounds louder also. My valve is stuck closed, bike works hard to get over 8 thousand r.p.m's. Im either looking at the servo buddy or removing servo and valve all together. Thanks for the vid

[@fergiy89]

@chuckles4379 Pulling just that wire is in relation to the SET valve. All other FI indicators will function like normal.

[@bpridgen10]

Thank you so much for the clear and simple instruction!

[@dec6211]

shoulda done a b4 n after sound clip.. did you notcie a difference in the sound? great vid btw !!!

[@Ryzen_56X]

Hello, nice vid, have you ever had an FI error on your display for installing an aftermarket exhaust?? I just did have that, I replaced my factory pipe for a Yoshimura TRS Carbon bolt-on, my bike is gsxr750 k5. Do you know if this is normal for these models?? Thanks

[@steviefpv]

I'm sure the set valve is open as default when you take the cables of don't think you need to turn the key I'll be attempting this tomorrow after watching a few videos on this. Still a bit unsure as the cutting the wire on pin 30 tho lol

[@tlafntn]

I will be trying this tomorrow Ive had the FI light problem from 2months after i got my bike brand new..... now it shuts off when I stop at lights ect so I hope this fixes all the problems

[@MicMurphy1981]

I needed more light my boy got a Gsxr 1000 and iam trying to fix his joint now. Just purchased a aftermarket exhaust from revzilla. But it's hard to see that last step in wire cutting cuz it's so dark.

[@khanhdang1980]

Your vids are very helpful. I will get this exhaust in a few days and will install it on my gsxr k8. Do you have any advise? I will cut of the cat.

[@heartsofhipptown]

Thanks i was wanting to do that it was alot easier then you showed tho once you take the cables off the valve it goes to the open postion and stays..

[@TheCumdonners]

@Jason Chu take of the seat theirs a wire box, u have to unpluge the cable #24? 34? i forgot the number but i know its brown...i use to have the light also got annoying so yea...unless u take it to a shop but it will run u bout a buck fifty $150.00

[@Rinney1]

Usually the reason for the removal of the SET valve is because you chopped the cat off and want better sound (or some after market exhaust's). If you dont remove it after you chop the cat off, you get a light on your display and your gonna have a bad time!

[@GAZZAPACK69]

I have just fitted a full akropovic system to my 750 09 which means I totally removed the valve but tricked the "gyro" with a component that comes with the exhaust. I get the same f1 light which akropovic didn't explain . Will the #30 wire work for this or is there a problem. Great video thanks.

[@deathbyautopsy8660]

Nice video, this stupid valve has caused me no end of issues.

[@southfuckincounty248]

Get your ecu flashed, upload some maps, disable SET error code, rip all that crap out and you're good to go!

[@matthewpuckett8881]

Very informative THANK YOU

[@ruubern]

nice video :) if i buy a full system for example akrapovic, will that set valve thingy be removed then? and all i have to then is unplug that black guy?

[@alexandromcquillan4124]

Does removing pin 30 also disable all other engine codes? My exhaust actuator broke last summer and pulled all the wires and clipped the wire as you showed in the video. However, now my bike has a rough idle and smells like it's running rich. I put it in dealer mode yesterday and didn't get any codes and I wanted to know if it's because I clipped pin 30. Any help is much appreciated!

[@getitn651]

i kno I'm late to the party, but I have a 07 gsxr with a Leo Vince slip on n yes my f1 is on so with the help of this great video will/would this solve my probelm??

[@parlito23]

i would like to ask ,cos your bike got aftermarket exhaust and mine have stock with catalytic converter its safe to remove that cables and leave valve open ? cos for now mine gexter done 9800miles and FI flashing ? im curios cos all the bike in youtube with sport exhaust without catalytic converter p.s forry for a language i am foreign :)

[@jimmanycricket4952]

Has there been any complications with your bike that you noticed once removing the cables from the butterfly

[@shortlittledude]

Question, after reading the comments, has anyone had an FI light pop up after removing the cables or making any mods I have seen in the comments? Did all these work?

[@jackcarey4902]

I have clicking noise coming from right rear and I believe my exhaust servo is playing up is this the same thing with a different name?

[@abeeftec]

My motor hex wheel doesn't start off in the same position as yours does. My motor starts off in the adjustment position, cycles only upward and then back to the adjustment position. It never goes down where it is supposed to go. I believe that Petes cycle in Bel Air did this to my bike because there is no reason for it to do this.

[@fishnmaster421]

I removed the wires and still getting the c46 and I don’t see how when the wire is gone

[@MrJmazing1]

why'd you shoot the video in the dark?

[@TheEduardoisaac]

Dear Master, do you feel any difference removing that? is it bad for the bike? Thanks!

[@512gsxr750]

I have an 06 750 and I can't stand that damn valve. Thank you for the info .

[@jeickholt17]

I have a 2006 gixxer 1000 and i was wondering, it it still pin 30 on the wire that you are supposed to cut? is it still black with brown stripe? or is it different?

[@GixxinStars]

@goosedizzel gixxer k6 600 although it should be the same on both k6 and k7 models

[@twizzy808]

so pretty much just adjust the wire and should turn off the f1 light right?

[@WatchJason]

Quick question. I bought a 2006 gsxr and the person had installed a two brothers exhaust and the red light is on on my dash. I just want to get rid of the light. I figure its related to the set valve. If i take off exhaust and turn bike on the valve will be set open - would the light stay off? Is there an easier way to turn off the red light?

[@SuzukiGSXR4LIFE]

What will it benefit me to remove the valve. I thought it was there to give more power in mid range. Will I loose power overall or what?

[@antonim2006]

the valve is sprung open to the fully open position when the cables are removed.... also on doing this mod be prepared to lose a lot of mid range due to the flap being fully open and resulting in little or no back pressure.

[@goskidmark]

This is not correct. I gained four horsepower mid-range and seven at the very top on the bike dyno. This valve is for emissions and cold-weather starts.

[@Dylan_Marshall]

What should I do if the cable snapped

[@QUADsK8ER97]

do the 2013 gsx-r 600s have this valve?

[@TheCumdonners]

@twizzy808 is it brown?? if so u can remove...dont cut it...remove then tape it

[@GixxinStars]

UUm another question which wire is it cause I see. Green and white one and a black and brown one

[@AhmedFromKSA]

anyone knows if this is the same for the k8... I got mine second hand without the SET and I just want to be sure its done right

[@fergiy89]

I understand the process but I'm still left with the same question after watching this video and reading several forums. How do I know for sure that that the SET valve is fully open without taking my exhaust off? I see people just remove it like you have done and yet they don't mention anything about knowing the position of the valve. Do I need to physically move it to the right position? Or do I need to do something with turning the bike on and off at the right time to make sure it's open...?

[@manuelvaldes6200]

It has a spring that opens the butterfly when the cables are removed

[@twizzy808]

i have a after market exhaust on my 2006 gsxr 600 the jardine gp1 exhaust and my red FI light stays on can u i just remove wire #30?

[@ponponpataponangel11]

Hi!!! Well first thank you very much for this video, I have some problems with my gsxr 600 2007 and a person told me this example. But... I just need a favour please!! My English is not very well yet, so could you give me the instructions that you explain in this video in words please?? I hope you can help me!! Thank you so much!!

[@chilelalo]

did u notice any differnce without it? or nothing crazy? is it worth it? i got and dual exhaust gsxr1000

[@zetto156]

... for my bike's fuel economy. Suggesting that removing this [useless] device has no apparent effect on fuel economy, and if it does, any change +/- is negligible. As far as "smoothness", my bike seems to run better with a more responsive top end, but as I said the motor in my SET valve was bad and not opening the valve fully. In my opinion, the cost and hassle of replacing the SET is not worth it compared to removing it; especially if you ever plan to get an aftermarket exhaust.

[@kirbstone111]

Great vid! thanks for sharing :)

[@flipmode00]

hey i have the 06 600 and i have the -c46 code should i remove the valve too or just adjust it?

[@brandyn7chavez]

Could I remove everything like u did but instead use a servo buddy to remove FI light ??

[@25tubes]

if you want to install servo buddy then you can remove exhaust servo but you dont have to remove that one wire from that connector

[@GreggyGTV]

Can I just unplug the wire when the bike is off and leave everything in tact? Is the valve open when the bike turns off?

[@02MaroSS]

Yes. The valve default is full open. You can leave the servo motor attached to the bike. However, you need to buy the servo eliminator plugin. Got mine from vizi tec. Works perfect now.

[@azhar0708]

Is there any harm if this is left the way it is? I mean I don't mind F1 light on... is this Ok? Thanks

[@IllIIllIIllIl]

ive taken off the exhaust, removed the SET, & wire from Pin 30. I did it in the same steps as in this video except i couldnt see that good last night & unplugged the wire from Pin 29 instead of Pin 30, well the bike wouldnt start, today i found i had unplugged Pin 29 so i plugged it back in & took Pin 30 out...the bike still wont start up! has anyone else had this happen when trying to do this? what to do now?

[@j2thet123]

What is the easiest way to pull #30 pin without cutting it?

[@Mancin4L]

Does anyone know by cutting this wire will it make it where just only FI light won't come on or will it effect other as in like the light want come on if something else is wrong with the bike??

[@tripp4ever2003]

very helpful, thank you!

[@justinoutwest8894]

will that valve cause missfire

[@750DannyBoy]

Will that fix the hard to start problem?

[@jozsefkrisztiantamasi6252]

Very good video thank you

[@wilsep]

im just affaird of doing a mess up, with this, on my bike. is it okay that i do not cut the wire??

[@edwardandrade4390]

The spring leaves the flap open by default

[@juicer404]

u can buy a servo buddy if u dont wanna cut wires, stops it throwing up light, there on ebay

[@newio1]

what color is the # 30 wire on a 2004 1000?

[@borbor122]

The exhaust control system (EXCS) is designed to give perfect back pressure at all RPMs but it most noticeable and at low RPM range. Disabling this makes you loss your low end torque. I found that my used bike had it disabled, enabled it and got some torque gains. Not recommended unless you are putting in a full exhaust system.

[@Mattschindig]

borbor122 I am confused on this. Wouldn't disabling this pretty much be like a full exhaust anyways?

[@stuartjnorth]

+borbor122 Agreed. The valve on my K6 seized recently resulting in a fuel injection error and my garage turned the valve to open and removed the control wire as a work around. Since then I've been disappointed by the lack of low end power - although the throttle does have a more progressive and less 'on/off' feel and the lower exhaust note is welcome. Overall the bike feels less brutal at lower speeds, rather as if it has been softened up a bit. With standard gearing a potential extra 2hp at the top end doesn't help much for riding on the street (at legal speeds) unless one plans on spending most of the time in 1st gear. Perhaps it would be worth while for track days or with the gear ratios changed but to me as an intermediate rider it certainly does not feel performance enhancing and I'm saving up for a replacement part so I can get her back to how she was.

[@WorthlessBailey]

turns out back pressure is a myth and scavenging would hurt more than they'd help.

[@sayheytome]

what is the running temperature?

[@The901racer]

@chiquitico99 Hey there mr. engineer you prob dont own one of these bikes at all cause if you did you would know every aftermarket full system eliminates the exup motor.. as long as you tune the bike it will re adjust your fuel map... explain to me why i got more power after full system deleting the valve and tuning it??... come tell me my bike dosnt run smooth.

[@saudalshareeda3995]

what is the reason of this valve ???

[@garylouch]

@tlafntn On my gsxr 1000 k4.the f1 fault comes up as c46,this is the value actuator in the exhaust,under the back seat is a six prong plug with a rubber dust cap on,remove the cap and put a piece of wire across the black with thin white line wire and the white with thin red line wire,this will bring up a fault code on your display unit where the f1 used to be,the bike needs to be running with the f1 fault on.....then google the fault code.....ie.....( k4 gsxr 1000 f1 fault code)...good luck :o)

[@Jeremiahzayn]

Will it work 2008 Gsxr 600

[@garybrown5500]

Omg. I'm worried about taking advice from a tutorial where basic components are referred to as guys & thingammy bobs.. BTW I carried out this valve delete and found throttle response to be reduced. K7 750.
