Some folks have removed them when they removed the smog stuff. It does impact cold idle when they are removed.

They make a racket (I can't hear them much, thanks to the USN!! and my pipes) I haven't heard of any way to make them quieter.

Ok I'm riding a 99 1500 Drifter with 32,000 miles in which I bought last fall ...My question is in regards to the the COLD IDLE SOLENOIDS those things drive me nuts with all that noise ...it sounds like glass shards breaking I know it has been addressed  before and its been said just  live with it..man its loud...do they get louder in time and wear...what would happen if I installed new ones does anyone know...has anyone been able to fix this problem and how...I just can't believe that Kawasaki after building such a fine machine would'nt do something about this...     Thanks        Rick
