DaveV65 Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 I'm just looking at a 1984 GSX11 EF in Germany, were European versions restricted at all? Quote Link to comment
Gixer1460 Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 Some were, some weren't! French were and if sold into Germany it could be but I think 'native' German bikes were 'full fat'. Quote Link to comment
DaveV65 Posted November 13, 2023 Author Share Posted November 13, 2023 Thanks Gixer1460, I'm guessing any restriction would be fairly rudimentary and relatively to reverse. Quote Link to comment
DaveV65 Posted November 13, 2023 Author Share Posted November 13, 2023 missed out the word "easy" Quote Link to comment
Gixer1460 Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 Suzuki main restrictions were in carb tops and jetting but exhaust and ignition restrictions not unknown! Quote Link to comment
Arttu Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 In case of the EFE the restriction is done by the cams. 3 Quote Link to comment

Arttu Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 From the service manual. This also gives some hint where the restricted versions have been sold but I have understood this isn't the complete truth... Quote Link to comment
Rijko Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 (edited) This is a super study into the cams, start at p29. Sorry, it's in German.https://up.picr.de/36612796ge.pdf Edited November 13, 2023 by Rijko Quote Link to comment

But with the GSX1100 that was about the max HP Quote Link to comment
Reinhoud Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Dutch bikes were unrestricted. Quote Link to comment

Rijko Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 (edited) According to the document, there are at least 3 types of cams : 100/111/125 HP, the D cams being the faster ones. Edited November 15, 2023 by Rijko Quote Link to comment

Pedda Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 D stands for "Da Beasty Ones" Quote Link to comment
