Different sets of Power and Torque numbers
I've just broken into a cold sweat...
I dunno about you guys but, I've just looked at the 3 different sets of power and torque numbers provided at the bottom of page 18 of one the PDFs that were provided in other threads, and I got nervous...
For every set, there are one or a few numbers in parenthesis following following both power and torque numbers. I guess these are submodel IDs or market IDs:
190PS @ 9500RPM (201, 202, 205, 303, 40A, 40B)
15.7kgf-m @ 7500RPM (201, 202, 205, 303, 40A, 40B);
180PS @ 9000RPM (310)
15.1kgf-m @ 7500RPM (310);
no ram air PS
and most unsettling:
106PS @ 8500RPM (40D)
11.6kgf-m @ 4500RPM (40D)
no ram air PS
Correct me if I'm wrong but, I think the 40D model is for the European market; my heart bleeds for them...
So then, where does the 310 model go??? Christ, I hope not to North America ! I want the FULL power, YOU HEAR ME ??!! FULL POWER!!
If this issue was already addressed and/or solved in another thread, please point me in the right direction and my apologies for the drama... Thanks.

For the german market they offer an optional version with 98PS!
You can't believe??? You can verify on www.kawasaki.de!

I wonder how these restrictions to power are made?
How easily you can bypass them?
There is an extra tax on those countries for bikes more than around 100 hp
The nad thing is that they have inspections every second year
and police i the street could be suspicious about your turbo....650hp

The reason for these "magic" 98PS in germany is, that over 98PS the insurance makes a great step. At the moment from this value ist doesn't matter, wether you have 99 oder 199.
On former models it was quite easy to bypass but a high risk to get in trouble with law and insurance when detected.

For tax only the ccm are the base in germany - no extra tax depending on hp yet!

How do you figure? What's stamped on the can? Is there a "matress tag" that says you'll go to jail if you remove the can?

Re.1.: deristriction is only a matter of taking the restriction rings out of the air inlet stacks and some rewiring at teh ECU unit.
Re.2: in Belgium taxes raise as hp do so for a 100 hp bike one pays +/- 125 once. For a bike over 175 hp one pays 2500
