Proper speeds and RPMs for shifting

[VermilionX]

Yah, ear it.

It should go 'rrrreeeeeeeoowwwnnnn' and when it gets up to the 'ownnn' part you need to shift up

the "owwnnn" part only happens when i ease off the throttle or when im near the redline so it's really in my control when it happens.

it goes "rrrrrreeeeeeeeeeee" all the way to near redline. it just gets louder and a louder.


so basically it will go "rrrreeeeeeeeeeee" until you hit the power drop off in your tachometer. im sure this is universal for all engines.

i know, and when i do push it... i pay attention to my tach so i always ease off the throttle when im near the redline, i don't even let it touch the redline.

i need to practice more and get a feel for what's it's like hitting the power drop off so that i don't have to watch the tach anymore.

If you are watching the tacho to make sure it doesn't redline whilst you accellerate, you are going to die. Soon.

I only ever glance at my tacho when I am at a constant speed to see where it is at. An engine will tell you exactly where it is at rev-wise and how it is going by its sound.

i know, like i said, i need more practice to get used to "the feel" of the power drop off so i don't have to look down to check.

bec in the several times that i pushed it. it feels like it can still go even if im already almost at the redline but i always ease off the throttle since i don't want it to touch the redline.
