Will riding with prolonged speed limiter damage the engine??
#1
I was running a bit late to work today and had been riding the bike till speed limiter kick in for quite a stretch of highway, guessing about 10kms.. Just wondering when the speed limiter kick in, its just cut gas like we run out of gas, right? I see the RPM is no where near the red line and continue to wot till traffic ahead, with the limiter kick in intermittently. The engine handle fine and nothing out of ordinary happen. Why would honda put the limiter so low in the RPM range? Will prolonged limiter kick in hurt the engine?
