When do you shift?

[ALFAHOLIC]

21000rpm...that's more than F1 18000rpm!!!

 

[tco21]

I change to second at around 110 km/h or so. Depending on the road ofc

CBR1000

You bastard! What year? Photo?

\so jealous.

The highest I got in first was 84km/h @ 14k RPM. Didn't want to rev it higher than that as it was on the red line.

 

[Slootvreter]

If you wanna feel guilt about shifting and rev's... try riding a kawasaki ZXR 250

Redline at around 21 000 rpm

Yeah, and at anything below 17000 there nothing. Same as an FZ 250.
250cc four-stroke inline 4. Weird little engines.

Check the photos on my other username. (Staalbal)

I think it's on here, let me check.... I crashed it but then fixed it up again

I normally shift if I want to go faster
gear down when I want to pass someone.

Lol @ thread. This is where we'd be standing around the fire with beers while the women would be preparing the salads.

Depends on the camshaft where your power lies.

Custom cams like 276 degree for example will have more power in the higher revs than lower.

I prefer having power in the lower revs. Torque ftw!

Yeah, I know. Not that it bothers me at all - 1.3 at 6000 RPM does not sound pretty. You said it.

 

[xrapidx]

As close to 9200RPM as possible.
