Today my restriction is up - so the washers have come out and have been hung up on the garage wall

Not ridden the bike yet with its full 59hp (as quoted)
I guess tomorrow's commute I'll find out what almost double the HP feels like

The last 2 years have flown by

Regards
Rob

Congrats.

24 months left for me Laughing

I have read that for a CB500, removal of the restriction does not improve the 0-~75 times; but the acceleration from 75mph+ improves greatly... not sure how true that is. Report back Smile

I hate you...but enjoy!*

10 long boring months for me. The last year has not flown by at all as I spend most of my time on a motorway where an extra few horses would be very beneficial. I've also done about 10,000 miles in that time so that doesn't help.

*Just kidding. I'm just very jealous...

Still got a year and a half to go til I can take the restrictors off my ZZR 600. It's running on a 1/3 of it's original 100bhp and it can still make me smile! So taking them will be fucking amazing I reckon.

Have fun, be safe!
