When she LETS you?

Who's riding that thing - you or her?

 

I don't hit it much, but if I get in a hurry then old habits from bikes with 11,000 rpm redlines don't help. Oops, I'm on a Harley - shift faster!

 

Some of us like to actually RIDE the bike...not just poke along in the slow lane.

Has nothing to do with racing someone either. Spirited riding leads to aggressive shifting...

 

Opening it up once in a while is not the same as beating it up. Your bike will like you better if it sees the north side of 4K rpm once in a while.

 

Just wanted to say if ya have a stock bike your probley right never hit rev limit.... But as for me and my bike i hit that thing once a week... My bike pulls all day never runs out. and without a tach its hard to tell where 6200 is. and by the way i have 105,000 miles on it with no problems. Ride everyday rain or shine...

 

oh, hell yea.....isn't that whats its there for...if you go above it (which you can't)you get in trouble, but up to the rev limiter, no problems....

 

Just didn't realize there was a limiter on the bike. I don't believe I ever hit it but, I do shift between 4500-5500 RPM when I'm in the moment. The Rineharts sounds so good. Upper range RPM is good for a performance engine in my opinion. When I had the Northstar engine(auto), It call for WOT at lease once a month.

 

I had much rather buy a bike that has occasionally hit the limiter rather than one that gets shifted at 2500 on a regular basis.

 

Sorry, But you've never hit the rev limiter in 6th gear

 

I hit the rev limiter but just once a long time ago and I didnt inhale.
