I've bounced off the rev limiter at 9000 a couple times, she's screaming good at that point.
I took an old friend for a ride who had never been on a bike since her brother's dirt bike as a kid, she started out nervous and fearful, made me drive on side streets at 30 mph first, by the end of the day she was ear to ear grins, I showed her once what it could do, wound out first all the way, hit second and picked the front wheel up a foot, held it almost to redline, then eased it down gently, she was laughing so hard she couldn't breathe, I told her husband she's going to make you buy a bike now, LOL.
