Wether anyone agrees or not makes no odds realy, you are still stuck with it.
What does the restrictor kit consist of? A guy I work with had a CBF500 with restrictor kit, all it consisted of was a little bracket on the side of the carbs stopping the throttle from opening fully and 2 different length screws, cost him £180 for it!! I guess you pay more for the certificate and frame sticker than you do the kit but without you aint licenced or insured, I was amazed he never took it off early as I know I would of done.
As for mileage if you've covered a million miles on a learner legal 125 an FZS600 is still going to take a bit of getting used to, for a so-called budget de-tuned commuter/tourer they are pretty bloody impressive once you get them revving.
Oh the joys of being an old git when you could get home from your test, park up the 125, and take your z650 for a good thrash...(mind you I used to do that before the test :o , and the 125 was a 200 with different badges and logbook
