10,000 RPM

[Ord Millar]

Factory redline on mine is 7000.  (Acutally, the red line is painted at
6800, but fuel cutoff doesn't happen till 7000).  I know some who have moved
their rev limiters up to 7400 or so, but that's mostly just for "head room",
they still need to be shifted at 7K, because power is dropping off.
