The rev limiter should kick in ABOVE redline to keep you from over-revving the engine, but it should allow you to get to redline.

The only reason I can see for removing the limiter is if you had enough engine modifications that you needed to raise the maximum allowable rpm. A stock or lightly modified motor shouldn't need to raise the limit.

sir red01,
thanks for the info, now i know that since my banditv4 is all stock, no need to get a rev delimiter.

aha! i saw it also and wanted to ask the same thing!. It's stating it will remove the top speed barrier at 180km/h? I seriously doubt it, but it is true i never gotten faster than 180 (i think, i had 190 indicated at 12k).
But of course, mine's completely stock.

If anyone wants it, there's an intake cam on ebay too, ask Jay for details on why you should be doing it :wink: .
I would like it, but i really really don't have the cash...
