Yes, its only to make sure my bike falls in-line with minitwin regulations on my trackbike/s if/when I race it, that's all ... I intend to leave it done on my road bike!! its a bit of a pointless reg anyway ... I mean how often does a race-bike see 3-4k??? I'd wager only when it is on the stand warming up!! .. anyway, thems the rules, so thems the rules and I will abide

On my commute on my road bike, it sees 3-4k in 2nd and 3rd plenty

What I meant was, it doesn't cost you power, it just means you need more revs to get the same power. Obviously that's still not good but a lot of people think they're going to get power on top, so I was getting at that. Or trying to anyway

I bought one of these off e-bay which I am led to believe does the same job. I haven't fitted it yet though.

You can just cut them... And insulate the ends, obviously. I cut mine at the time, just recently I removed them from the connector just by pulling with pliars. Hulk smash. But it works

You will need a small screwdriver, like a watchmakers one ... or one that you repair glasses with ... as someone else said, you are trying to lift a little retaining plastic bit ... so take the plug off the CDI and jam the screwdriver in along the top surface of the relevant connector .... if you push it home it will lift the flap, the wire can then be removed with a gentle tug
