Default Re: Maximum Rev

On a 2 valve engine (like your 620) the power pretty much tapers off after about 8000 rpm, so there's no benefit at all to running up to redline. And for street riding there's no reason at all to be running it that high; 6-7K is about as much as you'd need in typical daily use.
