Howdy yall, I've been missing for a while but I'm back. I had a question. I just got back from a ride with the wife. On our way back we hit the highway and we gunned it. I always ride behind her just in case something happens. Anyways, she took off and I followed after her. She was waaay ahead of me and so i went full throttle. Nothing new, I've done that plenty of times. Always going around 100-105 mph. I was about to redline but it never goes past it, not that I"m trying to go past it. Well this time was different. Since I was going down a slope going 105 mph I pasted the 13K point but I didnt notice, until of course i felt the bike give me a nudge. I looked down and I was at 14K!!! I slowed down and took and cruised a comfortable 80 mph. Now, I know redlining is not good for the bike but since it did happen could I have hurt the engine? I mean, as soon as I let off the throttle it went back to normal. No hiccups of any kind. I rode it for a while longer and she still going strong. Anybody got any experience with that? Or any advice...besides the "don't do that"?
