That error is due to the server that u are trying to access does not support your request HTTP versión, so you need to change it. May be, you need to send 1.0 HTTP request.

import urllib2, httplib
httplib.HTTPConnection._http_vsn = 10
httplib.HTTPConnection._http_vsn_str = 'HTTP/1.0'
print urllib2.urlopen('your_url').read()

I highly recommend to use requests library to handle http requests from python.
