Default '03 rev limiter

Does anyone know if a 2003 Sportsman 500 H.O. has a rev limiter. Cause i can swear that i have never hit it. I once revved it while in neutral with the diagnostics mode on and it said that the engine was spinning over 7000 RPM's! Just wondering.

engine rpms are relavent to clutch weights and springs. i don't really think revving it that hard in neutral is good for the engine.

oh i know that you aren't supposed to rev an engine that high with out a load on it....i only did it for a quick spurt so i dont think it would hurt anything...right up and then right back down.
