70mph in top gear???

[Millietant]

What the heck... Ok, seems everyones FZS600 except mine runs over 6000rpm at 70mph in 6th gear.

Mine is a metric instrument model with standard (15/48) sprockets.

It shows:
100 km/h -> 5000 rpm
112 km/h (70 mph) -> 5600 rpm

gearingcommander.com confirms these numbers.

What am I missing?

Don't think you're missing much - our is also on standard sprockets and gearing and 70 comes up under 6,000 as well.

Don't know what s going on but it looks like we have sprocket changing ghost hanging around.
