Oh, and I may be making the leap back into sportbike wrenching here soon
yea... i know that not all trannies are the same... but riding on friends bikes.. they are close.. and the R6 is WAY higher in the RPM range at interstate speeds than other SS bikes.
I think it something like 6200 rpm @ 70 mph. And on the R6 forum.. guys talk about it being closer to 7100 rpm @ 70 mph. Most dont like it (cause the bike sounds like its screaming when you just cruising)... but its whatever.. dont really give a shit if anybody takes my advice anyways, just thought I would be nice and throw it out there.
