RPM for a stock engine?

I am more curious not how to do it, but if the max in tune ECU was safe for a stock R3 engine. I know some turn to 7400 but not sure if they have the titanium valves or if the standard motor can get close to that. Does the soft cutoff move with the rev limiter?



I do not know. I loaded the tune and had it run on the dyno. I didn't even know it was lower.

The TFC has the Ti valves and its stock rev limit is 7400. The other models don’t have those valves and the limit is 7000. One might conclude that Triumph would not recommend raising that. You’re asking if anyone has damaged their engine by raising the rev limit to 7400. I believe Richard Albans raised the rev limit on his TTS bike. Bren Tuning says it raises the rev limit (for $895) to 7500+ depending on the engine.

Here is my dyno run with the Penner tune, the blue line falling off early is the speed limiter in 6th gear cutting in. I would like to have full power to 7K, I am just not sure what RPM is safe for a stock Rocket 3.

thats a pretty good torque curve
