    Not really possible. It's not "restricted" as such - it just doesn't
    produce more than 14bhp or so whatever you do to it.

    It still wouldn't produce more than 14bhp.

    On my zxr400, there's a switch under the seat. It has two positions: "Revvy
    and Gutless" and "Torque Monster".

    From memory I think the Varadero 125 has a switch with "Slow and Ugly" and
    "Road Missile". Try adjusting the switch.

  12. If you can find a big enough hill, the additional gravity it generates
    will drive the piston down with more force. But you have to make sure
    you move to somewhere with lower gravity as soon as the piston begins
    the upstroke.

    Although that technique might not work with a Varadero as I believe it's
    a twin. So maybe you'd have to remove one of the spark plugs too.
