Default Restriction

Hi guys i need help!

the garage can't legally restrict my sv becuase it has the race exhausts on, and i don't have the original, was wondering if anyone can lend a helping hand and maybe let me borrow/buy theres?

im in basingstoke, so would need someone close.

so much for getting to ride the bike by end of the week

Why not? The exhaust won't make any difference as the restriction is to the intake.

its a 99 curvy, think i need the down pipe aswell as the exhaust the reason they say i need it is because the non road legal exhausts i have on can apparently add 3/4 hp and he's unwilling to stamp the certificate without the stock exhaust on

Woops, its a curvy.
Disregard the bit about ecu's..

Garage's dont usually have a problem with illegal plates and exhausts..
If thats why they wont fit it..

Is it a full system or a slip-on?

If its a slip on, hes talking out his @rse.

Local/independant mechanic?
You dont need the certificate for insurance purposes, its just a ploy to charge you an excessive amount of money for a peice of paper that isnt needed.

Did you buy the restrictor from them?
