Title: Rev Limiter on M600
Post by: Tedonlin150 on February 20, 2010, 05:54:59 PM
I noticed that my M600 will rev to the moon with no ignition cut off. Is there supposed to be? Also, what is the recommended max rpm on a 600?

There is no rev limiter on carburated bikes.

It won't make much more power after 8K ish rpm

Ok good to know. The motor will keep pulling up to a little after ten grand though.

Yes they'll keep spinning.

Bruce Meyers once told me that after 8K all you're making is noise.

The 600 might actually make power after, but not by much.

Brad Blacks site..bikeboy.org has some dyno charts. It will prove what I'm saying...http://bikeboy.org/600monster.html (http://bikeboy.org/600monster.html)

i wonder... with short intake runners and larger carbs, all bored to 45mm with larger valves how high it would make power.

If the 600 is like the larger displacement bikes, and I see no reason why they'd be different, about 9K.

The short manifolds put them into the same range as the FI bikes.
