derestricting question

[Jeff Saline]

Col, Alan, The holes are on Aussie models to restrict the available horsepower of the engine. I think that's why you probably don't know about them. I don't remember the entire thread but on the KLR650.net forums they talk(ed) about this issue in the last year or so. Joining that forum and doing a search might come up with some results. Seems there are more Aussies on that forum than here.
