redlines
05/23/08 at 15:20:49

On my rebel there were literally "red lines" along the speedo to show redline speeds with the lack of a tach. Anyone know the redline speeds in the various gears on the savage? I shift well before redline but it'd still be nice info to have. Nice to know how far I can push it safely. I searched and found various references to redlining but not to actual redline speed.

Re: redlines Reply #3 - 05/23/08 at 17:27:53 The bike will make you want to shift before you get it wound out to the point of danger of damage. Its no fun after it stops pulling in first & second & third & fourth. Why would anyone not shift? The torque drops off long before the red line.

And yeah, it's pulling up to that point, but dropping off quick.
