looking for a bit of advice.
Got a 2006 zrx1200r, fitted a yoshi carbon can, uni filter, 125 main jets, and removed side of air filter box. bike pulls well down low, fuel use is good, but bike will not pull past 210 klm. a mate also has exactly the same bike with the same mods, same top speed. know these bikes should go alot faster. any ideas?

if you and your mates stop at 210 then id say its speed restricted.
does it continue to rev even when it hits 210?
have u modified any of your bikes electrics? anything!
and y do u need to go faster then 210????? lolz
cheers Tim

Well ya better buy a zx9 as they go way past 210

yep they do, mine does not have this problem - from memory mine does not have anything like 125 mains.

Is the pipe a slip on or full system ? What brand of jet kit, has it been tuned by someone who knows what they are doing ?

BTW mine will pull past 210 in 4th (especially when a titanium ZX10R is chasing

something is very wrong with that picture... standard gearing? and when you say it doesn't go over 210, does that mean the speedometer doesn't show higher than that number, or that the bike doesn't accelerate past that point? -J.
