Post by Pete-D »

One of these is fitted to my raptor - Anyone else got one and does it really make a noticeable difference ? - or should i remove it ?

Hell no!
I don't have TRE, but haven't heard anything negative about it.

A lot of owners have the TRE, seems it avoids the 3k rpm twerking, I ride through that as I've just got used to it over the years, but folks swear by it as a smootherer outerer < (#oxfordenglishdictionary take note of these new words)

I have one fitted and it's fresher in low rpm in the first 3 gears. I wouldn't remove it

There are probably heaps of different ones out there, some probably work better than others, you could always try it without it (if you have little fingers to get at it) and see if it is making a difference.
