restricting bandit

[Rubadub]

I've an 04 GSF600, anyone know if it's the washers in the carbs to restrict this model - someone was telling me these were only used up until 2003.

Thanks

as far as i know it is i think you can get the kit cheap on ebay all you have to do is get a garage to fit it and sign the certificate

Kick start engineering do restrictor plates for a number of bikes, including your Bandit and my Hornet.

All you do is remove the carbs, smear silicone sealant on both sides of the plate (not near the hole), place each plate with the tip of the triangle facing up into the inlet ports and off you go.

Comes with a certificate which needs to be signed by a mechanic, but to be honest I would not bother.

As what Paddy said: Slap in whatever restriction you end up with and then ride.

No legalities revolve around the certificates at all.

Only your insurance company might ask for "proof" of restriction but if I remember rightly; Paddy you sent a MSpaint picture that said "My bike is restricted" and they accepted it.

They did indeed.

No law on it.

I wouldn't be putting silicone sealant in the intake tract.

You can just push them in... They won't fall in.

The inlet gets narrower on the Bandit. Probably the same for other bikes.

yup i stand corrected on the certificate part i asked my local garage when i went to pick up some parts i ordered and they said the same its just a case of putting in the washers and away you go

Thanks for clearing that up - do they go between the carbs and the engine house?

Sounds like it's a reasonably easy DIY Job?

Bandits aren't the easiest to chuck carbs into, royal PITA to remove them but yes. Thats where they go.

[petechett]

whats the bike like with a restriction? really slow & sluggish?

A little.

If it would bother you, don't restrict it.
