Dude, are you serious? If you are, why the hell would you think 10-11k for a half hour would be a good idea on a brand new bike? (or any bike)
Are you sure it's a 1krr and not a gixxer?

Um, would a dealer cover something like that?

I would think so.
If they don't know what happened. Just say you were riding along and it quit.
I'd take the throttle lock off beforehand, though..

Wait a minute, what?! Why? ...and I hope you don't mean 11000 RPM. If my bike sits idling (1200 RPM) for less than 5 minutes, the fan kicks on, because it gets hot (223°F). These bikes are designed to be kept moving (fast) at all times, thus you get air flow and its ensuing cooling effect. I don't mean to be harsh, but I really hope you didn't cook your engine. Keep us posted... Welcome to the Forum

If you ran the bike at those revs for 30 mins you need to do a few things
* Learn a lot more about motorcycle mechanics and their workings
*Take it back to the dealership - if you bought it privately, LIVE WITH WHAT YOU DID.
* When warming up your bike, you NEVER need more than 2000 revs EVER or more than 5 minutes
*Did you check the oil and water levels before you started it ? If not.....................
I'm trying to think of a polite way to tell you, you're an egghead who should be doing something else.................
That motor's cooked IMO.
Experience has a price, let's hope this one isn't too high........................

WTF? ......if that was "thousands" of RPM , then I have heard it all now ..!!

The throttle unattended will free rev(no load) a bike to those RPM with a minimal amount of throttle ...

If she was free reving at those RPM for that long ...the least that will have happened is that the bores prolly would glaze and the engine would have got extremly hot ...!!

If you did mean 10,000-11,000 ?
I dont want to see another post about it until you........
DO A COMPRESSION TEST .
..........BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING !!!

and if you cant do one ...
FIND SOMEONE THAT CAN DO IT FOR YOU !!
Then post back with your results from it ...

Welcome to the CBRF ....

Starting to think we're being played.

I don't see any biker, even the worst squidbilly Harley rider, letting their kid do something that... uninformed with their first bike.

Hell I can't see his dad letting him near his throttlemeister without at least asking "Whatcha doin?"
