Rev limiter on 99 600 f4 (is there one?)
Does my 99 600 f4 have a rev limiter and if so what RPM does it limit my rev to?
I was doing some practice wheelies today and while ridding in 1st gear i was doing the old punch it, let front end fall, than punch it again to pull the front tire off the ground, at a high rpm (above 6) After a few consecutive failed attempts, i pulled in my clutch and up shifted, and before letting clutch out i noticed the rpms where on there way down from around 13.5 or 14 (in the red) im unsure of speed, around 50 id guess? I assume that since i pulled the clutch and then looked down it must have been a bit higher before i looked...anyways just wondering if i do have a little protection from with a rev limiter and if i may have damaged anything...
(I DID NOT MEAN TO HIT RED LINE i just didn't realize how fast i was going and how hi the rpms were...oops :P)
Thanks much!

Alright, sounds good guys, thanks, im thinking i must have got right about to that rpm n noticed it wasnt normal n thats when i let off the gas and looked down. I havent noticed any problems or noise since than and i rode 100 miles the other day so i dont think i did any harm, plus thats the first time my bike has prolly ever been up that high in rpms, i usually stick close to the 4-9 range lol
