This stems from a recent drunken debate between two newbs who don't know much about the technical side of motorbikes. Because KB is full of excellent knowledge here is a quick one for ya.
My rs250 does 6k rpm at 110 km/h in 6th. If you divide 110 by 6 you get 18.3 km/h per 1k rpm. So if my bike's maximum output is a bit below 12k rpm does that mean maximum speed is close to 12*18.3=220 km/h?? So what I'm actually asking does the speed linearly increase as your rpms increase as well, or, does a decay in speed occur per 1k increase in rpm? If a decay occurs what's it caused by?
