V85tt shift light
« on: August 09, 2022, 07:23:29 PM »
Before I go blind trying to read the manual, what should the shift light be set to on my 2022 V85tt AFTER the first service?

I reckon it’s all for numpties.
Just spin your new motor nicely up to 4,000 with the occasional spin to 5,000.
Just keep it happy and let it work in the 4-6000 range.

I set mine to 6000rpm. I use the rev counter for changing gear; that’s what it’s for. No need for a shift light IMHO.
