It's all here on a nice sheet which also shows the effects of changing sprockets.http://foc-u.co.uk/wiki/index.php?title=Effect_of_Changingor follow the hot poop link at top of page.
Quick question, how fast is 10,000 RPM in first gear

I think its there more for consistency - besides, there may be other bikes that the gearing also represents which have the extra power to achieve such a figure?Also, if you change the gearing enough, the 12,500 RPM in 6th can come down to below Yamaha's quoted top speed for the bike - not a useless figure then
I have seen on the speedo just under 150 mph on the 600 so about about 135 mph true speed, i dont think a half faired 600 would pull a true 155 mph ( did get 168 mph on my R6 speedo reading ( 1999 model) Mark
i find the ones with blue lights the worst, i had to ride on the pavement for several miles til i lost him Mark
also dont forget the wind - because at 12,500 rpm and 155mph I will be making quite a lot of it !
Wind and gradient don't make a different to gearning ratios... they make a difference to the maximum speed achievable under those conditions as they are a function of power, but it won't affect the RPM for a given Speed and Gear
