How to change it depends on how they take the measurement in the system. For whatever reason, Hayabusa was rumored to only have the speed governor kick in when the bike was in 6th gear, so the kit tricked the bike into thinking you're in 5th. Try driving in 5th and see if it redlines or governs out.
Otherwise, disconnecting the speed sensor should work if the governor reads the speedometer CAN or J1850 messages. If it reads it off of gear indication and the RPM sensor, then disconnect that sensor and see what happens. There's a lot of different ways of doing it and I'm not sure what Honda did... You could always try swapping the ECMs, but ya never really know what else is different between the US and Japan versions.
Hope this helps!

I heard that in Japan the police are only allowed to reach a certain speed. All you have to do is overcome that point and they won't even bother... Is this true?
hmm.... MaybeI got this from'Tokyo Drift'?....

Hey karimreda, you have a Jap spec bike, where did you get it and where are you riding it? My buddy is in the Navy and wanted to pick up a bike real cheap overseas but to ship it back would be so expensive it would not be worth it. . . What colors are your bike?

First thank you all for the try 
... but i would like to note that i live in EGYPT and not in JAPAN
I was thinking of the speedohealer option and converting it to miles in stead of kmp and therefore the ecu will read 180 from the gauge as jsut a number. Any one tried this before??
