i see that there selling oxygen sensors for the xvs 1300 midnight star on ebay [ to help running at low revs ] at about £13 from a greek bike shop. has anyone bought one of these and did it work ?

Haven't seen it but if it is what I assume it is, it's not an O2 sensor as such, its simply a small resistor that fools the EMS into making the mix a tad richer at row revs, thus smoothing it out. Fits between the stock O2 sensor and the EMS. Usually costs a little bit more, maybe 50, so make sure its not a crappy one!!

Do they work? Yes. It was one of the first changes I made to mine.

5 min job to fit - if its good one, it'll have the correct plugs, etc.

Google 'Jacks's O2 Mod' and read what you find:)

thanks jimm, were did you get your oxyen sensor ? because i would rather pay a bit more for a good one . cheers

I got mine from Alchemy Bikes, dunno if they still have them or not.

I got mine from alchemy too but very expensive (£70 8o) £13 would be a bargain!!! OR you could make your own: http://vstar1300.pbworks.com/w/page/5760698/Jack%27s-O2-Mod
