It's all lies, I'm afraid. The rev-limiter is set to 15.5k (rev-counter over-reads). Mind you, so do all the other 600's (eg ZX6 over-reads by 1000k).

Anyone would think they did it on purpose

Hey, I wonder if speedo's also over-read

If it does... it does it by the same amount as my wife's gixxer

So should I

*sarcasm duly noted* - but as a point of interest with speedo's over-reading, I read with some interest the following observation in the lastest AMCN.......

" The R1 was regularly showing almost 300kph at the end of the straight........however the Stalker radar-gun told the 'truth' at closer to 270kph.......which is acceptable error, given the 10% error in speedo reading as advised by the manufacturer......"

makes sense, 10% of 300 being 30, so 270kph would be an accurate top-speed of an R1.......

I am happy with the radar-gun readings for a 12R

oow.. The 17,500 that's really about 16,200... lol
