What RPM do you use in the twisties?
#7
The rev limiter is in place to keep the engine from spinning at RPMs that could actually hurt it. As far as the ideal RPM range goes, I'm sure that it is somewhat terrain-dependent, but in general I find that I'm pretty happy when the CB1100 is running anywhere between 3K and 5K RPMs. It will go lower or higher without much complaint, but in general the CB1100 seems pretty happy in this range.

Ah the CB1100, when it's happy so am I, and vice versa.

This is what happens sometimes when I become mesmerized by the tone of the Staintune. Yet we're still happy, both me and the CB. Big Grin
