    I'd be almost 100% certain that the restriction for the LAM (learner approved) bikes when compared with the standard unrestricted bike of the same model, will have an altered ECM/ECU. Most likely it will be in the fuel loop tables within. Unrestricting the LAM bike would be a simple matter of having the ECM/ECU connected to the manufactured supplied computer module (via the dealer) or taken to some place like ECUnleashed <sp> to have the original ECM/ECU re-flashed if it is locked. A power-commander might also help in this regard. Obtaining a replacement ECM/ECU from CFMoto might be an alternative.

    There might be some very specific conditions tied into the specific model certification for import that might restrict what the dealers can offer...

    A manufacturer is not likely going to spend time on tooling up for manufacturing of two variations on the same engine for the same bike model, so mods to inlet/outlet valves, pipes etc are not what is needed to remove the LAM restriction perse', but the same mods when done in conjunction with the use of a DYNO etc would be useful to gain some HP out of a stock engine. Though having been down this road decades ago with a Vauxhall Chevette altered into a rally car... it is both time consuming, challenging, and drains finance's rather quickly.
