lol no the restricted CBR doesnt lack guts at all (well it probably does compared to a full powered version but I havent used one to compare it to, obviously) it gets to about 80 mph very quickly, then starts to slow a little as you get towards 90/100 and I havent had it any faster than that so dont know what the top speed is. But seriously, I've got the choice of waiting 2 years before I can have it unrestricted or spending a couple of hundred quid and waiting 3 months... I dont think many people would wait the 2 years and I certainly dont plan to lol did you pay for the restriction?
-
does a restricted CBr600 really lack guts? its only a small time to be stuck @ 33bhp and then when you have the restriction removed it will be a whole new bike if i remember correctly a 33bhp 650 bandit top speed was 115mph on my mates so i imagine the cbr wont lack top end maybe its peek power band but do you really want to be int he high rpm range? if it was me save the cash of a DAS course and spend it on better gear/bits for the bike

sounds abou tright mate air pressures will vary and temps change compression etc, i wouldnt worry to much mate if its a really bad jump then the plugs could be fouled, the jets could be fouled, the air intake could be partialy blocked, the airfilter could need changeing, the piston rings could be warn, if its dual/tripple/quad coil system then a coil could be behind on the pulse genny, the cam timeing could be a tad out, sticky valve, bad valve clearance need i go on?

love u really lol but no i know what you mean with the carbon gold series they ar every good pads and a lil bit more than the normal but i'd pay it. just remember HH are harder so its more ware on the disc its self so be careful. but my god they make a hell of a diffrence, so does having good clean fluid

EBC HH's on the Zephyr 550 make a hell of a diffrence but as said, they sqeak on a warm dry day, get hoter, casue unwanted vibration at hard brakeing. but on the plus side on teh A57 before a roundabout i can brake from 100mph - 20mph in less than 100 yards... with engine brakeing. worth every penny!

what makes you think the bike is running lean? is it standard? (i.e. exhaust/ air filter) they are supposed to be biscuit colour. no its on a K&N air filter and the front main baffles have been removed (not through choice) and the colour is like the worn plug but without the bit missing ill add photos 2moz
-
ok all heres the situation i took my plugs out of my bike today (Zephyr 550) and its running super lean the plugs are like rust colour and where only changed 2000 miles ago if that, so what do i do how do i adjest and balance the carbs with no skills in the carb system, also this problem of no money or tooling to check the vacume or seethrough plug to check combustion colour. ill post a photo up when i can of the plugs the worse plug is 4 and the others almost the same colours

i would presume the 918 system will be thicker and wider to deal with pressures and heat of 918cc i know 18cc isnt alot but its still a diffrence, also diffrent regulations on emitions etc, diffrent engine design, diffrent brand of OEM supplier/manufacturer, price specs etc will all come into it. best bet would be to find a blade specific forum/google search or ring honda or honda dealer they might know. good luck, oh and enjoy your new bike its a very nice looking cbr!!! if i had the cash and no claims and age on my side id of nabbed that off rennie lol
