Using kbdrate without any options will reset the repeat rate to 10.9
characters per second (cps) and the delay to 250 milliseconds (ms) for
Intel- and M68K-based systems. These are the IBM defaults. On SPARC-
based systems it will reset the repeat rate to 5 cps and the delay to
200 ms.

from man kbdrate. In X there is an equivalent with xset.
Cheers,
Ionut
