I must agree. Second gear at 120mph seems a bit.... Unreal... I just dont like redlining... Even my bike hates it... So I have to build up speed slowly.... I think my electrical issues are also contributing to my bike not loving the redline....
On another note... Do you really wanna go faster than 110mph on these bikes?
I mean
... No fairing, and the really high rpm.... I don't think its all that,great... At least not for sustained periods....

It won't track it on a history basis, but I've found it's near-instantaneous and perfect accuracy for actual speed. So you can at least find out how off it is at relative speeds. Speed is judged by the front wheel, and is irrelevant of the tachometer. So you can do a lower RPM at, say, 70 mph and find out how far it's off.
