I had a Honda CBR400 (jap import) and it too was limited to 118. It was possible to convert the speedo drive so that Kilometers read a Miles, so you'd then need to go 190mph before limited kicked in!! It was a mechanical speedo for that so was easier to do...

All the Japanese import cars I've had have been restricted to 112mph by local regulation - so I'm not surprised if Japanese spec bikes are similarly restricted. Factoring in removing/bypassing the limiter is part of the budgeting cost of 'do I buy a cheap import'.

I've got one of those electronic inline one in the shed (had it before changing the clocks to uk ones), make me a reasonable offer and it's yours?

Cheers Mark.
