I've hit the rev limiter on my 05 M620D on the first 3 gears and hit a top speed of 133mph[as per speedo]@97XXrpm... Got very very close to 10K but that was on a straight that's about 2 kilometers long. Usually I don't go beyond 6k~7K...By the way, stock ECU, 15/48, Termignoni slip ons, open top airbox.

No offense, but why the hell would you be near the limiter mid corner?

That's exactly what I did my second or third track day.  I was all amped cuz I was in the midst of passing some guy.  And like Scott, I didn't realize how close I was to the limit.  Hit the limiter mid-corner where it came on ABRUPTLY.  I stood the bike up and shot off into slick wet grass (where you can't brake) and then into a tire wall.  <sigh>  Some people learn stuff by figuring it out or reading it on the internet and then putting it into practice.  I learn stuff the hard way -- doing it, crashing and then trying not to do it again.   :'(

Occasionally AFM #702  My stuff:  The M1000SS, a mashed r6, Vino 125, the Blonde, some rugrats, yuppie cage, child molester van, bourbon.
