My RK is one of the JDM-spec models (GR79C/R715). It's been around a bit since then and I was told by the previous owner that it'd been derestricted, but he was vague with the details. :sad
I'm convinced it doesn't go as well as it should - having spent all weekend jumping from it to a 750-Ltd (also JDM) and ZXR750R-M and back again, mine just seems a bit lacking in outright shove. There's also an ignition glitch (or deliberate rev-limiter ?) that kicks in at 10000rpm.
I've got a garage full of assorted J-spec bikes and any restrictions on those are speed-related. My RK's still running the J-spec kmh clocks but it's not that it hits a certain speed and stops, more that it just feels a bit flat. :dunno
I've read all sorts of stuff on here and elsewhere about how the J-spec models are restricted, but no-one's ever given the definitive answer, at least that I can find. Has anyone got the facts ?
