m007slater, they don't give the list of countries that needed o2 sensor eliminator, just says some european models... if i have o2 sensor (i tho this is it, on the down pipe, near to right foot peg) do i need eliminator for sure? Doesn't Americans have o2 sensor?

i dont think us bikes has an 02 sensor , this is because of strict emision regulations in place in the uk and rest of europe thats why uk bikes are fitted with them ................... basically they stop you race bike from being just that to save a few trees ........

you mean u bought an O2 sensor?? WTF for??? LOL Pls dun mind my language..hehe!! But i tot the O2 sensor is used by the factory to help bring a healthier emission so that the bike can pass the strict rules in some countries which in turn will affect the full potential of the bike..
