Where does YOUR redline start coz their different

GADGET · Guru

I know right ?

I'll get a pic of dans when he comes round ,it only goes to 10 ,I'm asking coz if people have th clocks that only go to 9.5/10 then a lot peeps would only take it up to th red instead of using the extra thou revs

AndyYam · Guru

You mean where the redline shows on the clocks or where it revs to?

GADGET · Guru

Yeah man on the clocks

Nathlaad · DTR Legend

GADGET · Guru

Oh yeah dtx etc don't have rev counter

Calum122 · Guru

Nath I think i just JIZZ IN MY PANTS....No wait, yeah I did!

Reef · Guru

Never knew about this, got the RE so never had a rev counter, therefore after looking at one Google image for a dtr speedo ive never ridden it over 9k :/ Does anyone know what the RE would have if it did have one please?? ive got the digital clocks so would be so good to know if i can take it higher

Or anyone can think of a way of finding out?? ;)

Nathlaad · DTR Legend

You'll love this one then Cal!

ToySoldier · DTR Legend

take it as high as you want iv taken mine throw the red line to 12 k more then once

Reef · Guru

Ay so how-comes some start at 9k and others at 10.5 on the speedo, because of different stock barrels, restrictions etc?? Or I wonder if they all start at 10.5 really and just Yamaha changed it after putting in all the restrictions etc??

GADGET · Guru

Maybe they realised it needed to be lower

oh and 10k is fine

yes mate. Mine struggles to get to even 9K. When It does it won't rev very much after it. Especially in the higher gears. Not sure in the lower ones. So rev away mate. Won't be doing much damage lol.

Reef · Guru

Cheers, well lets hope this digital speedo is accurate regarding the rev counter ;) wont hardly ever take it to 10k but good to know that i can ;)

GADGET · Guru

Cool man I thought u wer gonna start ringin it's neck

Reef · Guru

nooo nooo, i love my baby too much ;) and im not even joking, haha, majority of the money i earn goes into my bike somehow

Calum122 · Guru

?? It's ok for two strokes to rev highly. That's what they're designed to do. Not doing so is more dangerous than doing so. Especially if you use thick two stroke like I do. You'll just build up **** loads of carbon deposits. I recently bought the vapor stealth. Lovely bit of kit. Just made up some nice brackets for it to be mounted to the yoke as well. Lovely :D

mines permanently abused off road and bouncing off the rev limiter all the time biggrin as long as they get rebuilt well and warmed up properly they can take one hell of a hiding,and for hours at a time biggrin
