US and Canada (North American) models had a "soft" rev limiter that retarded the ignition advance at 9200 RPM and decreasing power.
The rest of the world did not have this and their engines revved up to the "hard" rev limit of 10.2K RPM where the ECU cut spark to the cylinders.
The soft rev mod removes the soft rev limit and allows the engine to rev to it's full RPM capability like the Euro bikes.
Since HP is a calculation of torque and RPM, just allowing the engine to rev another 1000 RPM can add around 5 HP or more depending on other engine mods, state of tune, etc.
