33bhp restrictor washers

Post by Craigb »

so going off what i was told today, the certificates are not needed? So long as the bike is restricted i can ride it on a restricted licence?

Im after the 4 washers to fit in a cbr400 nc29 anyway, if anyone knows the sizes that would help too, or where to get hold of some.

Thanks, Craig

dont go taking my word for it, you probally know more about it than me!

I tried to find the thing everyone was telling me about online but had no joy.

My instructor was telling me today that apparently the certificate isnt needed by he police or insurance companies and its juts a big ripp off.

So i dont know, im the same as you, im not wanting to go and pay over £200 to have it fitted when i know its 4 washers and a 2 minuet job.

there are just 2 things you need.....
1) 33bhp restrictor washer kit.....
2) a dyno machine with a printer!

1)- fit the kit
2)- run bike on dyno and get a print out of bhp.
3)- the print out is your proof of 33bhp restriction.

2yrs later, remove washer kit and sell on to someone else who needs em..
