Hi All,
I have about 1k miles on my 2013 CB1100 now and wanted to ask a dumb question.
I have noticed that when I get above 3250 RPMs or so the bike seems to be vibrating and revving quite high, even though friends assure me this is normal, I wanted to ask the question to ones having this bike.
I have read all the posts about changing the sprockets which I will most likely do but it seems to me that when I am 2750 to 3000 RPMs the bike feels good to me (not lugging and has good pick up when throttled).
I want to form good habits and maximize engine and transmission life, so the question being what would be the ideal RPM range to keep this bike "happy".
Thanks in advance for any advice,
Johnny
