Restricting, how much power is lost?

[TimNorwich]

Ok well my GPZ is going in for restriction next week. Was just wondering if much acceloration will be lost in the process?

I went on my bike on private land last night and it flew up to 60 in no time at all, was just wondering if its more acceloration that is lost or top end?

Thanks for your help in advance

when my bandit was restricted it made a fair bit of difference. different bikes take restriction differently, some it notices more than others.

About 17bhp give or take a few.

It'll mostly lose the top end of the rev range, so it'll affect both acceleration and top speed.

my GSXR600 hates its restriction

it accelerates faster than most cars still, but it wont rev higher than 8000rpm and i no longer have much use for gears 5 and 6.

Acceleration will be totally rubbish, and I think your top end will be affected also but not as much - it will just take you a lifetime to get there. It will be smooth but no matter how much you twist on, the bike will get the speed up in it's own sweet time. Oh and in agreement with the earlier post, beyond 8000 will no longer exist and nothing will happen in 5 and 6.

Enjoy!!
