Hello!
Stupid question maybe... but does EU spec model has that PAIR valve stuff?
Or it is only in US Valkyries. I have EU spec model '99 and just could not find some vacuum pipes what I saw in service manual pictures ???

Thanks in advance.

Seems to me they do not, but I am not sure.

If you have an EU spec bike you don't have the tubes and your block is not drilled for them.  So, I would guess you don't have the pair valves either.

European models do not have the secondary air supply system for reduce engine emissions.



European models have a throttle position sensor (TPS).
The TPS is a variable resistor that changes value based on throttle movement. The control module uses information from this sensor to adjust fuel delivery to compensate for throttle opening.

Thanks! Was informative for me... I also wondered what switch it is close on carburettor... I have not seen it in most of Valkyries. Ok it comes of US and EU model differences.
