Hitting the rev limiter is not a big deal, however, if a rider plans to ride the "posted speed limit" or say 5-10 mph above, then we really only need about 3 gears, if we are going to the limiter, otherwise we are apt to get a speeding ticket every day. Especially in a city area.
Kind of what I thought. I bang it in first on my Ultra sometimes because it comes on pretty quick. For some reason not so often on the F6
First vehicle I ever had with a rev limiter ( didn't know it) was my 85 MR2. Around a long bend just opening up, I accelerated hard, the engine was still pulling and suddenly it went all to hell. "OH F!! I blew it up!! LOL
