Hi!
Old thread, I see that, but the gen 1s are still patrolling the roads, so still relevant I assume.
I bought my first Hayabusa, a 04 model. 98 HP in the papers but advertised as 175 hp.
Asking the seller about it, he admitted to the "wire cut trick".
But when test driving, it was as if the bike hit an invisible wall at 8000 rpm, and it was just out of breath.
Obviously, the restrictor is still in full force.
Upon inspection, I found pin 21 (black wire with brown dots) to be cut already from the bigger of the two connectors.
My bike has ECU code 32920-24FH0. Bike was bought new in Norway.
Is there different restrictors, with different countries? Years?
How did it turn out for you, almano? Did cutting 21 do the trick?
