nice one dude !
unfortunately restriction is a given, to keep your dad happy, its going to cost. usually £150 ish including labor.
all for 4 washers (aluminium) and a form.
ask a garage what you can do to keep the cost down.

already spoken to the garage, reckons if i can get the washers, he'll fit em, and give me the cert, even if its not the gay fi one.

Besides if the police decide to take my bike, even after ive shown the cert, theyll be wasting time.

yeh, sounds good. every little bit to keep the cost down helps.
keep us informed, i'm interested to see how much we can actually get restricted for.
stupid 2 years, should be 1 year really, enough to stop people killing themselves, but not enough to get bored stiff .

Has anyone ever been stopped/heard of people being stoped and had their bikes tested for BHP?

I`m 'restricted' but not if ya know what i mean...

Groovearmada got caught doing over the ton on an apprently restricted bike. They tested it and found it wasn't restricted, So did him for speeding and driving without insurance (as they argued he only had insurance if the bike was restricted). Did him for some other things too I think.

[MarJay]

[Fawbish]

Insurance?




Anyways, you dont need a certificate or anything, just buy them/get them made up to the right size. If you can get them off someone for free, the whole thing shouldnt cost you anything at all


they'll take half an hour to fit

And hey presto, youre restricted, if they check, youre safe.

No need to shell out 150/250 quid AT ALL - I found this out after Id shelled out 250 of course. Fuckin shite

Im not stupid Marjay, I know they can what im saying is that a 20 year old with No no claims (wouldnt have them after not riding for two years as you suggested) is going to be quite the bitch.


But blades are notoriously expensive for insurance, for young riders.


My mate on here has a TLR, he's 18 (Dav1) He was looking at getting insured on an '07 zx10r, with two years NC(poss 3) and it'll cost him £592 what a bastard he is! lol

Another mate Phil has an SV1000, he's 19, but pays a bit more I think, or will do, cos he claimed and got 3 points...but he still doesnt pay as much as I do.


Im on a zx6r, just turned 19, but cos some cunts stole my first bike nearly two years ago, I havent yet got my first year no claims (march ) and hence, I pay a grand and a half TPFT. It sucks donkey ass, I tell thee.

Odd my SV when it was restricted (still is..) could scrape 110mph....

There again it factory released speed is 128, friends will do about 125, mine does just over 140...

a restrictor for my xt660x was £100 including fitting but they may have lowered price a bit as the bike was coming from same dealer

didn't make to much difference with top speed, 92mph with restrictor 111mph without
acceleration was a bit boring though, as soon as the restrictor came off i struggled to keep the front wheel down, good fun!

I'd say just get the washers off ebay or wherever and fit them yourself or get a mechanically minded mate to fit them for you.
as far as I know, the only legal requirement after passing your A2 is that you have to be restricted to 33bhp.there isnt actually any part of the law that states that you need a certificate from FI international.the certificate is handy for showin cops that you are restricted, but firstly, it says that your bike has been restricted but gives no proof that the washers are still in (you could have easily taken them out yourself) and secondly, is it really worth £100+??
up to you though the worst that could happen is they take your bike to be dyno'd, find out it is restricted and give it you back.
save the money and get a nice loud can

tell your dad you have had it fitted,

get a mate to print a fake doc for your dad to see

you got quotes from local garage's for the work to restrict it.
