Default 6th_Gear'n_it

I just wanted to know..... is anyone else at 8-9K RPMS in 6th gear on the highway and doing about 95ish mph? Gears and chain are at the stock config.

Stock gearing no chain or sprocket mods:
6th gear at exactly 7K RPM is 85-86Mph.
Was true for both my F4i's.

all bikes whether it's stock gearing or otherwise will read that unless they have a speedohealer

Is that speedohealer corrected? I think mine only runs 7k at 80 after GPS corrected speedohealer.
