sorry if this has been covered a lot, but i hve seen a few comments about this TORS thing being a bad thing. i did a quick search but only found bits and peaces of info, so can some one explne what this is, why it's so bad and should i take it off as a preventative measure, thanks?
 
Its a throttle over ride system. basicly it stops the gas from allowing to much gas and revving to high. there bad because they can fail and cause spuratic changes in gas flow or not let your blaster run
 
It only controls spark. and it is on or off. it prevents over revving through stuck throttle. there is a switch on the carb and one on the thumb throttle. if the bike is running and the switches don't match ie. open throttle open carb open. the spark will be cut. so in the instance where your carb is stuck wide open and your thumb throttle is closed it will shut the spark down since they don't match. thus preventing catastrophic failure. the reason it is bad is if it fails if you give it a little throttle it will cut spark right away. if you look in the diy section it explains how to remove it
