A friend of mine has a CBR600RR and he's coming off his two year restriction soon. He bought the bike restricted, allegedly factory restricted but he's not sure- he was told it was by the seller but he thinks it might be aftermarket. He tells me there is a throttle stop. He doesn't want to part with the bike and wants to de-restrict it. Any idea where to start with this? How big a deal is it to de-restrict it if it's an all singing all dancing factory restrictor?

Well I had a kit that was a throttle stop as well as washers but I know that the washers are no big deal either. The question really is if there's any chance the bike maybe also has a factory restricted ECU and is there any way of finding out before we start bolting his bike apart?

its unlikely to be an ecu restriction, and a throttle stop.. but guess anything is possible (see how nsr125's are restricted for example, exhaust restriction, throttle stop, intake restriction, and in some cases, CDI speed restricted)

sometimes the numbers on the ecu can let you know if its a 'restricted ecu', but you'd need specialist knowledge to know what to look for - could check cbr forums etc

I was feeling the Rocket Roadster was a bit inadequate so decided to swap it for a Boss Hoss BHC-3 LS445


Should be taking delivery next month if all goes well.

You are so "out there man" with bikes that I would not put it past you. The triple is a cracker of a bike and the 1050 engine is very addictive the gurgle on roll off is pure sex.

Fair play look forward to seeing it in the flesh. You getting it new new 141 or 2nd hand...? Did you take a spin on the Tiger 1050 Sport it would suit you well also.

Brand new speed triple? Nice! What extras are available, and what are you going for?

I want a 2015 model so have to wait until they start production next month. There's an offer of free Arrow cans, a gell seat and some other gubbins being thrown in as well.

Getting it in sparkly white

In all fairness, who could spot that as a wind up? Knowing your form with the more, how do I put this politely? , agricultural bike. When you pulled into midway, I thought I heard a fúcked up tractor approaching

Thats what I mean.....he does have a certain "taste" in bikes. So this Triumph Speed Triple could be the wind up. He really is getting a Honda Goldwing :P

Where is the best place to go for a remap?

My two brothers exhausts will be here next week and i want to get the bike mapped to them. There is also a few flat spots at low rev's that are doing my nut in.

I can put all my money down for RPM - Drogheda. You can even wait for that just call in advance.

I would not let anybody else touch my bike.

Wonda-Boy

Yeah RPM is a nice shop to deal with no bull**** and Ronan is sound. Gary if you want I can bring you over I know exactly where it is can meet you in Trim or Kilcock and leave you at the place.....let me know.

No bother m8, would hate to see you lost over this side of the woods getting nose bleeds and polluting the nice Meath air with them exhausts

haha! The only pollution these exhausts will give off is some incredible noise pollution

As they came straight from the US they have no hole for the lambda sensor so will have to figure that out when they are getting out onto the bike. Possible need to drill a hole somewhere to get it sorted.

I had the same problem when i got the system for mine

I left it up to a lad called Gizmo in Citywest and he added a threaded bit so i could put the lambda sensor in it, first class job and a sound bloke aswell

Give Mick a shout for his number as iv lost it

Yeah man I seen some stuff online about it. I will give him a shout if I'm stuck.

I have a feeling I will be ok though as its only slip one and I think the sensor is at the headers.
