My bike redlines in 1st at about 28 MPH, 2nd at 35 MPH, 3rd at 40 MPH, 4th at 70 MPH, and 5th at a buck... lol Guess it's a good thing I'm looking for that SV1KS if I wanna go faster...

Who....the F***.....CARES
I'm just hoping you were kidding...
And by the way, for any normal riding, those numbers really arent going to matter much if you can shift worth a damn.

It's not a sad day, I can still do 0-60 faster than almost any modified car on the roads here (about 4-5 sec.) And keep in mind the WRX STi can only do it in 4.7. Anyway, it's fun to ride for now, I'd just like to be able to ride faster and have power on demand...

I bump off the redline when I want to get moving fast, but who looks at the speedo? (who cares?). If you're going through the gears that fast, you'd better be watching the road, with a quick glance at the tach when you feel you're getting close to the red.

I never even go near redline unless I need to get up to speed REAL fast, one time I pulled in front off someone on the highway, I figured since I was doing 75Mph he was doing that as well, unfortinitly he was doing about 95Mph, I looked in my rear mirror saw him comming on me, jamed on my throttle and he jammed on his breaks, I pulled away from him, but damn I nearly shat myself. Fortinitly that experience wasn't in vain since I am much more carefull of damn trucks speeding.
