In a similar post I asked about the powerband on my son's RM65. He absolutely refuses to ride it 'in the pipe', and is getting really sick of me telling him to down shift. I suppose the power will be there for him when he's ready for it.
In the mean time I'm concerned about whether or not putting around on the bike is bad for the motor. It seems to me that at low rpm's the bike gets lots of nice juicey fuel/oil and would actually need less service, other than more frequent plug changes, but I recall the dealer telling me to have him ride it wide open if I wanted to save on maintenance.
What do you guys think?
