Does it? I was out on Monday & an t**t in a transit was buggering about so I came out of a 40 in 3rd & wound it on, looks down at rev counter seconds later & it was 11.5k & still wanting to go. I changed up & slowed down to national limitish & then down to 30 at the next village. Needless to say the transit didn't slow so was up my butt again halfway through the village. But it certainly pulled right the way up past 9.5k

Without going into a debate about what does what,I was referring to the redline mark if you wish to ride inside the red that's your choice.
