after reading up on this it seems like its a legal thing with mechanics as well.
(at least for certification, not sure about removal)
i don't know much about them but hang in there, i'm sure someone on this forum has, and will help soon! I'll Google a bit and see what I can find to help.
In the meantime, get the f3 manual (plenty of links to it on threads below) and look it up there

 

gotta hit the bed

Inlet Manifold restrictions (Kit A)
This is the most popular form of restriction for carburetted models.
You will need to remove the carburettors from the inlet manifold
and place one restriction blade into each manifold. Sometimes the
blades will have an off centre aperture or a small pilot hole. In this
instance the aperture or hole needs to be at the lowest point in the
relation to the slide. If the blades are oval in shape and match the shape
of the inlet manifold these should be fitted between the inlet manifold
and cylinder head.
Exhaust restriction (Kit C)
On a few models exhaust restrictions are supplied. These are generally
fitted in the exhaust headers and will sometimes need retaining with a
little spot weld.
Main jet change (Kit E)
On some 2 stroke models this kit will be used in conjunction with
a main jet change.
Carburettor restrictions (Kit D)
Carburettor restrictions generally consist of tubes, caps or pins that limit the
amount of travel of the slides.You will need to remove the carburettor tops and
place the restriction tube or cap on top of the diaphragm or in the slide hole.
Sometimes the slides will be severely restricted. This kit will sometimes be used in
conjunction with inlet manifold restrictions. This kit will sometimes also include
the inlet manifold restrictions, both restriction devices will need to be fitted.
Throttle restriction (Kit F)
With more and more bikes being produced with fuel injection
systems this type of restriction is becoming more popular.The
basics of the kit are that a device is attached to the side of the
injection bodies which stops the throttle cam from opening fully.
This is normally combined with restriction blades that go into the
air box or sometimes the inlet manifolds.Generally each of these
kits has specific fitting instructions that are delivered with the kit.
Separate Fitting Instructions
A separate sheet of instructions is included, please follow the information.
Certificate Instructions
1. Once a kit is correctly installed the fitter must sign all 3 certificates in the space provided.The customer must sign all
three certificates.The customer must be advised to read and acknowledge points 1 - 6 on the important notes.
2. Give the customer the coloured test certificate explaining that it is proof a restriction kit is fitted to their bike and may
need to be shown to their insurance company or the police should they ever be requested.
3. Return the F I International copy of the fitting certificate back to us. (This is very important; as it is the only proof we
will have on file that the motorcycle has been restricted.) This will be held on file at our premises in case the
insurance company or crown prosecution service should require it.
4. Keep the dealer copy for your own records.
Should you encounter any problems or require any advice then please do not hesitate to contact us.

Although I have nothing to add to help, this is very interesting. I had no idea this was available on our bikes.

 

well after reading posts on here about getting the carbs off it seems that they are hard to remove so unless one of you guys tells me its easy i suppose i will have to take it to the garage and be ripped off !!!!!!

 

it was an all day thing for me, taking my time and whatnot, keeping all the things together and not messing up.
Just make sure you are confidently poor, cause if you got cash, sure beats getting your hands dirty.
