if you buy an FI International restrictor kit it has to come through a dealer and they have to fit it. nothing stoping you buying a second hand kit/making your own.

apart from the fact its the paperwork that you need to produce to prove it is restricted, not just the physical restriction

anyone on here with a 33bhp restrictor insured with "ebike insurance"? i wonder their stance on whether a signed dyno print would be proof of a restrictor, or that £200 certificate...

if they'll accept a dyno print, then where would it be possible to buy a restrictor kit for a 1989 NC23 cbr400?

FI International like to sell themselves as the only legal way to restrict your bike, not true.

All the police (if you get pulled) or your insurer (if they ask) require is a dyno print out showing 33bhp.

Just thought i would reiterate Razz

I have a 33bhp licence and have now insured 2 bikes on their 'Pay-as-you-go' insurance. They will not ask for any proof of restriction at all. I declared the restriction on the first bike, an XJ600s, then took the restrictors out having got a dyno printout at 28bhp. The second bike, a TDM850, is not restricted in any way so I didn't bother declaring a restriction on the modifications list. They still insure me no questions asked.

The plan is: if I crash it make sure I do it bad enough to wipe out the engine so they couldn't check to see if it was 33bhp. If the crash isn't bad enough just take a sledgehammer to the bike Shocked lol.

If I were any of you restricted guys I would worry about how much self-control I had. In 18 months I've not even had any near miss's in 8000 miles. If you think you'd be tempted to go flat out everywhere then get the restriction.

Any dealer that does restrictions will be able to get you a restrictor kit for that bike mate as they all come from the same company www.fiinternational.com who make restrictors for pretty much every bike.

Any old garage will be able to order and fit you one, its costs between 150-200 quid for it all, insurance dont really go into things like proof of restriction till u have the accident and all police want is the restriction certificate or dyno printout. Thumbs Up

I wish people would stop quoting this utter bollocks, it's not true.

THE DOCUMENT FI INTERNATIONAL SEND AS PROOF OF RESTRICTION IS NOT A LEGAL DOCUMENT, YOU CAN USE ANY MEANS YOU LIKE TO RESTRICT YOUR BIKE TO 33BHP MECHANICALLY AS LONG AS IT'S PROVABLE

I have just bought a 1995 honda vfr400 nc30 and i need to restrict it to 33bhp for the silly UK law. The cheapest way to do this is to buy and fit the washers myself as its fairly simple. Then a dyno printout will prove that the bike puts out less than 33BHP, this is still legal too.

BUT WHERE CAN I BUY THE WASHERS???

You might find it tricky to buy ones with both the correct outer diameter and the correct size hole. But they wouldn't cost much to get made at a backstreet machine shop if you could find the right dimensions.

Nice to see a Honda franchise parts dealer doesn't even know what he's talking about. Rolling Eyes

Ebike don't ask for the certificate. I even phoned about this, they said they might request something in the event of the claim.

You simply add it as a modification to the bike, its under one of the categories.
