    So let's see...

    For my bike that would be not good...

    Ok, first thing is that the revs would try and go from 6000 to approx 15000 whilst the redline (and limiter) comes in at 7250 (normal 2nd gear redlined would be about 50-60kph), hmmm not good - mmmmm new valves.

    On my bike the step to take would be just open it up as you're already at the fun starting rev range and you'd just have to hang on through all that whiplash inducing acceleration up 'till the limiter kicks in at 155kph and then you'd get an even bigger ticket

    Good thing I don't speed then isn't it
