the 33bhp restrictors and small metal plates that are bolted between the carb inlet rubbers and the cylinder head, is your bike and import or a uk spec?as imports can have restricted cdi's as well and also have a speedo restriction.

If your not willing to test the top end then the easy way is to ride a bike that you no isnt restricted, or get someone to ride yours who knows what a unrestricted one is like. Its pointless me saying it feels guttless if you havent ridden a full power one!

Or you can take the carbs off and see if there's a washer in the intake pipe.
