if i remove the reverse rev limiter on my z, i know i will be able to go faster without bogging. if i do that will i damage my motor if i go faster in reverse?

 

You need a rev limiter on your "posts", Aaran! Yer' dubble postin'!
W/out a tach, you'd be a little harder on it, but back 'er off when the vavles start to float! How much more are you wanting rev out? You'd really only gain some more R's on the extreme top end.

 

y not just keep it on becuase you can run the risk or damaging or blowing your engin if you over rev

 

just a thought to help get out of those mud holes that didnt seem that deep

 

That is what I miss about my old Mojave compared to the Z400. I could
rev that thing as high in reverse as forward. I am also thinking of
removing the reverse rev limiter on my Z.

 

so if u over rev it will u damage the engine?

 

As far as I understand, there is a way to remove the REVERSE rev limiter.
This is seperate from the rev limiter that kicks in when you get to top
RPM"s.
Anyone can correct me if I am wrong.
But, to answer Aaran's question, by removing the REVERSE rev limiter,
you wont damage your engine.

 

i read it somewhere so i know it can be done. it was either on this site or (last letter alphabet then)..400central.com not allowed to type it in for somereason.

 

There is an old post in this forum that gives detailed instructions on how to do it, just use your search. And as far as I know, the reg. rev limiter is always there, even if you disconnect the reverse. Even if it isn't, just make sure you're not over revving for long lengths of time and you won't have a prob. If you gun it for minutes on end, then you run the risk of serious seizure.
