About the same as my car, 6,000 to 6,500 RPM. Actually, they never make a big thing about rpm in the literature either because you can't really go there with the bike in gear. Highest rpm I ever saw off my little EMC tach was 5,500 rpm and that was with me intentionally running it out in second and third gear just to see what would happen -- answer = power curve went flat peaked and and just didn't go any higher.

Hey Toymaker, gots me a question for you.
Are you going to host another mountain run next summer? I have mostly recovered from the last trip (mentally) and am considering it in a positive light again.
Last we talked it was going to be a meet at the campground nearby to the Dragon and stay a night format. If you are still thinking about doing it, open up a discussion so we can hash out the details.
Actually, I think the list got more pure enjoyment out of talking about it whether they planned to do it or not.
Then I'd know whether Lancer was going or not early on -- that would prompt more work or not on the hyper savage 650cc Suzuki just to get ready for the trip if he were indeed going and wasn't taking his Savage. Otherwise I'd take the newer 650 with the big ol' fat tire and just poke along with the crowd.
