Also, one more note...my rev limiter doesn't cut in until 10,500 rpm.  So, either the tach is not so accurate (most likely) or the rev limiter is set high (doubtful).  If anyone ever gets the opportunity to go to a race school, take it.  You will learn some things about you and your bike.

Isn't nice to be able to cut a left hand corner and not have to worry
about some jamok in a pickup coming the other way?

I don't think your rev limiter is wrong, 10.5k is about when it kicks in
on my bike.
