yea that sounds like a restrictor dont it, however if like it sez under your name 153mph ZXR then it cant be unless you changed the clocks an they have the rev limiter in or somethin like that.

It does seem rather fast i think, but i suppose it could be done. i tell you somethin i would have loved that ZXR400 with the implanted 600 engine.

i dont think its the restrictercoz it aint got one and it aint done this before! i will check my plugs etc n see if that could be it!
as for the 153mph...i dont know how it managed it but the bike came dyno-jetted n wi renthal sprockets etc......then one day on a big long straight i tucked myself in n opened her up she krept past 145mph n i thot that was good enough but kept her lit n wham she hit 153mph!!!!
nobody beleived me untill i was out wi my bro on his cbr400 n ma mate on his zx7r n pissed all over my bro n then was passed at 170mph by my mate! that sure dampened my happiness!!!
anywa cheers for your help dudes!
153mph zxr400!
