Weird one but Can you Re-restrict an NSR125 easily?

[Disco]

I know this is a mega weird question but I have the opportunity to buy an Italian Import, un-registered, Full Power, NSR 125 for just over £1k. The problem I have is that I'm still on L plates there for can't legally ride the full power version. Would it be easy to restrict the bike back down to 12bhp?

Any help on this would greatly aid my decision from a previous discussion I had on which bike to buy.

Many Thanks in advance

Danny

easy enough if you know bikes there is a power valve in the head of the engine you have to take it all apart and take out the power valve... depends on what you know think you cold do it ?

if yeah then buy the Fu*ker

Hardly anyone runs their 125 restricted, and I have never heard of anyone getting caught. It would frustrate me having that power and not being able to use it, loads of people on here had NSR's and they were derestricted. The bikes are restricted in a few ways; a restriction in the exhaust, an intake restriction, CDI restriction and a different front sprocket. The easiest way would probably be to get a CDI or go to a local bike garage and see what they have to say. It is feasible to re-restrict it but personally I do not see any point in doing that

How would the powervalve restrict the engine? after you pass 7krpm or so it is fully open, so without it,will have the same affect as an open powervalve.

I recently bought an Irish imported NSR which is also full power. I wasn't sure whether to re-restrict it either at first, but there's no point if your sensible. Don't get caught doing 100mph and you'll be fine. Do your test as soon as possible and you won't have any problems.
