Hello everybody!

I'm pleased to find this site and be here.

First question, is there any differences from Australian and european models? I was reading the manuals, and there is a small difference on power between the two models, Australia ones are rated al 36PS and european at 32PS... anybody knows why?

Thanks!

Most likely to do with emissions regulations, the power is minorly cut in order to minimise emissions.
I noticed a few electrical differences between countries for my GPX250, the one sold in the states doesn't have a headlight switch for example. (Or was it the other way around? Mine is a mixture of both. :P)
The 2008 model onwards is also slightly slower.

Maybe then an ecu limit? if exist, any body knows if it's possible to remove?

I wouldn't bother, it's a 250.
It does what it does.

Thanks, I know it's only a 250, but 4ps more in this small engines make a litte big difference. Here in Spain some are rated on 28PS others in 34PS, different years normally same bike, and in manuals I saw 38PS. 10PS make a great change, is a 25% more power.

What about this one?
