I just took out my bandit for the 1st time, after a 125. Shocked

Ok, so it's restricted, but still, it is a lot faster than I imagined it to be, power everywhere. Twisted Evil

Can't wait until the restrictors fall out. Mr. Green

I'm just getting used to it, but I thought I'd post to tell everyone how chuffed I am Very Happy .

And it was a genuine Suzuki kit, so it still runs ok.

Thumbs Up

Quite a big difference isn't it? I'm restricted atm. Although you get bored of the power quickly when you get used to it. Enjoy Thumbs Up

What does Christ have to do with it though? He managed to stop you falling off and persuaded the rain to go away? Smile Sounds like fun, I'm just counting down the weeks until I can do DAS, just there's the minor question of the final run of coursework and exams to get a degree in the way.

Enjoy it while the sun shines. Smile Thumbs Up

I would advise everyone not to purchase a Suzuki restrictor kit. Suzuki ask the dealers to withhold the orginal parts from the owner until they provide a full licence. This will end in many legal battles Thumbs Down Thumbs Down Evil or Very Mad

Could you not get someone with a full licence to go and collect the parts?

Errr evidence? Suzuki gave me back mine, perhaps it was your dealer. Smile

Ranger, you fired off an email to MCN yet? They might raise an eyebrow if you let them know about it. It's jsut plain wrong, pure and simple. Bloody theiving buggers. It's not so much that that annoys me it's the fact that you've got to ride a 33bhp bike for so long!! Wink

What happens if the garage went bust? I bet you wouldn't see your bits again...

Was that you that had a thread about this a few weeks ago? I thought the general was consensus was that they were withholding your property and someone mentioned they had turned up with the police to get their parts back before. Confused

So... no progress?

No accounting for taste I suppose. No doubt you got something a little more expensive to buy and to insure Mr. Green
