darn it, lol. the only problem ive encountered is noisy cam chains, thats about it really, had a puncture a while back but nothin gone wrong with it,

my old bike was a 1981 yamaha DT125 scarmbler and that was a hilarious bike, i was in an underpass/tunnell in birmingham city centre, i revved the engine to speed up and my exhaust can *original one* flew off my bike! straight pipes on a 125 doesnt make for a very nice noise, let alone in a tunell haha

hahahaha! that is quality! would have loved to hear that roaring away through a tunnel! did you go back to get the exhaust haha.

cant really help punctures though. so having the restrictor kit on it what does it limit you too?

luckily my dad is a lorry driver around the birmingham area, i told him and he said he would try and get it, he went into tunnell with hazards on, stopped, jumped out, grabbed it, then threw it back into the cab and got two stroke oily crud all over the cab haha,

it really only restricts the top end, the torque remains fine, and i can still get into triple figures easily, top was 115 but that was downhill. the limiter kicks in just after peak torque at around 6500rpm and totslly strangles engine at 7500rpm, its just empty and dull after that.

whats top you had out of yours?

119 then.. either chickened out or thought better of it haha..

so you going to be glad to be rid of the restrictor? or not feel any different really. plannion sticking with the bike for awhile? so how bad is your fairing.. completly wrecked or just cracked but still hanging on.

i didnt have any crash bungs on, so the mounting in the centre is bust, its pretty much screwed, the mounting to the radiator is bent in a bit, and its cracked right the way from centre mounting to the front. the only other real damage was the indicator but thats only 18.99 on fleabay.

ive had it to 142 without the restrictor but it didnt feel like it had too much more to give tbh, suppose if i timed my changes just right i could get another 5mph out but no need to worry bout that

142... fair play! didnt know they could go that speed.. i thought max was around 130. but then at 119 it felt like it stil had a lot more to play with.

ahh yeah pretty screwed up then. hopefully wont be to hard to find the parts in the right colour. do any ride outs or long trips anytime? i done 380 miles on sunday, ended up going cardiff just for the hell of it.
