FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUUUUUUUUCKKK!!!!!

Nothing ever goes as planned
I'm supposed to be buying the zxr on friday. I just called the guy who supposedly knew how to get the papers "restricted" for cheap, and this was not the case.
I started calling around for a restriction kit, but since they've only been restricting bikes since about '99, and the zxr is from '94 there aren't any official ones. That means my only option is getting some washers for the carbs which have been specially made. 450 EUROS PLUS VAT!!!!!!!
I'm already 150 euros out buying the bike, another 50 for the name change, and about 100 or more to set up the carbs. Before I can use the bike I will owe close to a grand!
I think if I get caught unrestricted the fine will be cheaper than this shite
I'm gonna try to get a mechanic I know a bit to sign that they've restricted the bike, and if the police stop me I can say I haven't gotten the MOT done yet and that's why the papers still show full power. If I do get caught the mechs can just say I removed the restrictors myself...
Gutted is the word

Get some washers! I imagine somewhere on the net the dimensions for the central hole will be wandering around.

Judging by the P/W ratio the washers would need about the same size central hole as a GSXR600, so around 15mm internal diameter?

Could be very wrong.

I don't know about the UK, but apparently here in Spain you need a mech to install it and certify it, then the paperwork is done when you get an MOT done. According to the people I've spoken to you can't just restrict the bike any old way, it has to be homologated. I'm gonna figure something out cause no way am I paying that kind of money. Even if it's just some certificate I can flash to the police to stop any questions.

[Paulington]

Surely you know a local mechanic who will just bung it in and sign it for you?

I'll check tomorrow...

[MarJay]

Its probably for the best. Judging by your previous taste in 'Big bikes' it will probably be an old nail anyway.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

This suggests to me that Spain is a lot more on the ball when it comes to restriction, and that you may be planning on keeping it restricted - do they check it yearly with the MOT or Spanish equivalent?

If you are planning on keeping it restricted, why would you get a ZXR750? Get a 33hp bike.

[5v3d3b0]

I wanna get it restricted so that the paperwork is 25 kw. Then I'll take the restrictors off again. Illegal I know, but that's my responsability

I'll be getting this. It's the best I can do. It includes reg number, chassis number, I think engine number, adress, colour etc. And most importantly power in kW / bhp
With all those numbers I think an average Spanish cop doing an alcohol control will be happy with it. If any questions arise as to why it's in English I'll say my dad rode it to England a while back on holiday and restricted it while he was there cause it's much cheaper over there.
I'll still be very careful and probably not take it out at night (that's the only time you get stopped even when behaving)

thats a smart idea.. get a 750 cc bike.. pretend its restricted ..

theres a reason they restrict you ya know..


basically your risking yourself.. riding with no insurance..


and your potentially risking other peoples lives !

i hope you get pulled up by police and royally buggered... becasue thats what people riding without insurance deserve..



just to add.. ive got a zxr750.. ive been pulled up for random checks 4 times this month..

What has this to do with the act of fvcking? I hope you haven't been abusing your motorcycle.

Anyways, drill a hole in the top of the throttle holder and stick a bolt in so the throttle can't twist open very far, if you are desperate for a "restriction"?
