is it good for the bike, ive herd that it doesn't do them any good???
or does it not really matter?

[Laura]

My cbr only stayed restricted for five weeks it doesnt do them any harm.

I think for the VFR it costs the best part of £200 including fitting.

how is 400 restricted is it in the exhaust??

[Laura]

No through the carbs.

I'm not entirely sure how they do it, probably in the carbs though - it won't be in the exhaust.

cheers not being much of a mechanic, is it easy to do? or is it a take it to the gargage job?

[Laura]

You have to take it to the garage to get them to give you a dyno read outr or a certificate there easy to take out though.

normally restricts the inlet

one of the bike mags did it to a GSX1100F IIRC - simply stopped the carbslides being able to move past a certain point - meaning the motor stillhad all it's regular bottom end/ small throttle opening response but quickly ran into the restriction as you couldn't open the throttle past 'x' point . . .
