Im sure it indicates economy ect..Im more interestd in the model itself..Im just trying to find out where it was imported from,since I cant get hold of the original owner...I also think it might be a restricted model{to 105 hp}..thanks anyway.

I've never seen a tach on a Honda that indicates redline in that manner. 10,500 is redline on the CBR1000F engine.

Is it possible that's a replacement for the OEM?

No idea..The bikes all original except for the screen and Krauser Rack..what Im trying to find out is where the bike is from originally..and mabye the Tacho can lead mein the right direction to which country the bike was imported from..{exp-only swiss models had a red line starting at 6500rpm to show economy..}

Some German bikes were also limited to 100 HP - easy to fix.......
