I need to know the exact speed on the speedometer to switch. And don't tell me to do it when the motor starts to make a loud sound cuz it always is.

What is redline on your bike? you can shift at any point when the motor will not bog shake or quit. Honestly if you are asking the question you really need to think of an alternate form of transportation> just because you can keep a bike up right does not mean you should ride there are so many things that you must be aware of at all times. knowing the sound and feel should be a natural thing If you need to look at the spedometer to shift I would park the bike!you can't tell by the speedometer,
but rather the tachometer......
the rpm meter.....
how do i fix a speedometer cable that is loose?
1st to second = about 4 to 6 mph2nd to 3rd = about 25 to 30
3rd to 4th = about 35 to 40
etc...
So my motorcycle got stolen. now what?
It's not the speedometer, it's the engine RPM gauge. I can't tell you exacly what level to change gears at because I learned how to drive a stich by feel.Where are the closest Sand Dunes to Dallas Texas?
There is no safe answer to your question. What is the right speed one time isn't going to be right another.Will A-Arms for a Yamaha Raptor 700 mount onto a 2003 Raptor 660?
You will just have to learn to hear the motor and gauge from sound and the feel of the bike when to change gear - sorry this isn't the answer you want.
Why do people not wear helmets when they are on a Harley?
Perhaps - not a motorbike but a car? Then you can have an automatic and your problem is gone.
Does anyone know any news on Billy Lane?
I should say what really needs to be said here, but I will be nice. There is NO WAY to tell going by the speedometer. I drive a Drag car, and it is so loud, and the helmet keeps me from hearing anything but loud noise. The only answer to this is; buy a Tachometer before you blow the engine and find yourself dead. If you blow the engine and it catches on fire, and you wreck, then what? You can get a tach with a shift light on it, and your problem will be solved. I hope this helps. Good Luck!Part 2.
We know its a motorcycle! You aren't listening to what everyone is telling you. GET A TACH! and you won't have the problem anymore. This is the only way you can know when to shift if you can't hear the motor. You can also get a shift light for a motorcycle too. If you try to depend on the speed, you WILL blow the motor up. This is why they invented tachs and shift lights. Ask a question and argue with the answers. Why ask a question?
Has anyone had any expericnce with Victory motorcycles?
You don't say which motorcycle you have, what year or what you're doing. If it's a newer model (say last 10 years or so), it'll have a rev limiter on it. That basically disables some aspect of the engine (spark or fuel I think are the two most common methods) so you can't exceed the redline of the engine and damage it. Even Harleys have them.Beginner Motorcycle Rider 15 yrs old 5'8" getting license soon what bike?
So you can really just hold the gas open until it sputters at you and then shift. Eventually you'll figure out the speeds where it makes sense. The folks who rev to redline are the ones that are racing the bike.
Harley Davidson and Powercommander compatibility?
On my Harley, which doesn't have a tach, you'd shift at about these speeds: 1>2 is 15, 2>3 is 30, 3>4 is 45 and 4>5 is 55
On my Hayabusa, which does have a tach, I shift at from 3500 rpm to 4500 rpm fror normal riding. If I were to redline it, I'd be doing about 79mph in first gear before shifting so that doesn't happen often :)
Is a yamaha grizzly 660 cylinder head interchangeable with yamaha 660 raptor?
If you're really concerned about it, locate a tach and have it installed.
Where can I find matching paint for a 2006 Honda 919 (CB900F) bike?
The shift points would vary by engine size and type. We need more information to help you. A 500cc four stroke will have different shift points than a 750cc or a smaller two stroke motor.Enter your engine make size and shift points in google and see what links show up. ex. "750cc Honda Shift Points"
How do I close out My MOTORCYCLE shop?
The absolute best place to look it up is in the owner's manual.There should be a table for upshifts, and another for downshifts.
And that will give a guideline. Start from there, and as you learn to ride, you WILL learn when to shift. You actually tell more by feel and performance than hearing. A tachometer is handy, but not neccessary.
