    Hi guys,
    Got the new bike a few weeks ago,  Roadking Special,  and noticed at 4000rpm and 180 it won't go any more.  Dealer said speed limiter is turned off.  At them numbers it's only on about 1/3 throttle.  Any thoughts?
    Cheers

    Does it have a break-in setting in the ECU?  If the mileage is still low and in breakin mode I would not be trying to bounce the RPM needle; but its not my bike.
    180 though!  fark my stock sporty would give you a good go. lol - ask for a refund

    I have one that came with the Stage 1 kit on my Sport Glide. It is keyed to the bike and I take it in when I go for servicing.
