Piddly? What's the redline on a IL4?

Good news on the run in, keep it safe

dear oh dear oh dear. And you only got to ride it when it was limited to 8,000 revs.

Yay! Now you can see what she can do. Just be careful though eh.

Enjoy and be safe.

18,000 rpm, not sure that would be much use in the South East of England!
Despite bike magazine voting the R6 their 'bike of the year' last year, this months issue tells of them 'falling out of love' with it due to its high revving nature making it a real drag on everyday roads.
Must be getting old as im not sure that i could bring myself to rev anything over about 12k.
Lovely looking bike though and im sure great fun on a race track.

I wouldn't know about the R6, never ridden one. My bike is used for commuting and for pleasure and its sweet to ride. Commuting is not a chore although the M25 can get a little boring. I particularly like the way it pulls from any gear so you have the choice of pootling along in 6th at 30mph or 60mph in 1st.
