Just curious if anyone has done the "2nd and 3rd Gear
Restriction" modification? And if there is any noticeable
change afterwards?

Effective - yes, or maybe. Either way it didn't cost anything
except some time electrical tape and heat shrink tubing.
I did the mod. Tried the flattened paper clip "tool" to release
the wire connector from the plug housing. One came out with
some coaxing, while the other came apart.
This mod was part of a bike tear-down so I am not sure of the
significance of the mod on its own. Part of the modifications
included replacing a K&N cone filter with the stock air box
(lower), a Uni and the Vented Evo1 tuning cover. SAS and
Cannisterectomy were done as well. The bike already had a FMF
4.1 pipe but was missing the spark arrestor which is needed for
my riding so it was added.
Lastly, but most importantly was the TuneECU mod. Previously,
the bike had been remapped by a dealer for the pipe. However it
would not even idle for the 15 minutes required for the "reset".
Loaded the appropriate two maps and she purred like a kitten -
not the one that got stuck in the radiator fan either. Also did
the throttle calibration roll-on, roll-off.
First test run. Wheelie king. Smooth idle. No flame-outs.
All is good.
Now for some additional risers - which to my angst will also
need longer brake, clutch, and throttle cables.

Is this power restriction still an issue with later model
bikes, say my 2014?
THanks

I tested my 690's 2nd & 3rd gear response the other week & could
not see any reduction in power.
