Thanks for all the responses thus far. I love you guys! This is the best forum and I'll never leave.
Thanks, Rocket 6R
Hey I belong to the other site too! :shutup: :msn-wink: And to be fair most of the folks there that I've met and ridden with are pretty cool. Not really sure why they went off like that...Frisco said:Those guys are a bunch of asses! CJ
For you, Malkey, I'll recind my comment and trust your opinion. Out of context, though, they didn't come off too well.Malkey said:Hey I belong to the other site too! :shutup: :msn-wink: And to be fair most of the folks there that I've met and ridden with are pretty cool.

That's about the same as going 6 up on the back. You'd never keep the front wheel down.:devil2: Must check out the renthal website...cyclerider105 said:Try changing your gearing. If you can't red line, then you need to go lower. Try a 15t front sprocket.
elp_jc said:Hey Taxman, are you saying the tach is off buddy? Never heard of that before. I've heard not being able to keep up in 1st gear or so, but never been off. So that means that the SV doesn't rev to 11K? Has anybody used a digital tachometer to confirm that? Just curious.

That's a good way of messing up your 530 chain...cyclerider105 said:Try changing your gearing. If you can't red line, then you need to go lower. Try a 15t front sprocket.
I think when they hook up a bike to a dyno, they also hook up to its electronics to get an accurate rpm count. I would trust the dyno charts over anything else.elp_jc said:Hey Taxman, I believe you buddy, but I think rather than the tach being off, Suzuki lied to us about the redline, no? :argh:
That also happened in one of my ex-bikes, but can't remember which one. Limiter kicked in about 500 short of redline.
The racier RC51 only goes to 10K, with identical bore/stroke dimensions; 11K sounds a bit high, huh? Maybe Suzuki didn't even want to bother changing the redline from the 650 to the 1000.

Nope......jrl305 said:What are we asking for here? Are we looking for top speed? OR, just trying to see if we can hit the rev limiter in high gear. If you put on a 15t, I guarantee that you'll hit the limiter in high gear. If it's top speed you're looking for, you'll want to be at the top limit of the HP curve with whatever gearing that it takes to get the job done.
Have I confused anyone?
