2014 RT SE6 Shift Points

[Wiredux]

I can't find the thread where someone was asking about the SE6 Shift Points. I have found this information:

1st to 2nd: Shift at 1800 rpm
2nd to 3rd: Shift at 1950 rpm
3rd to 4th: Shift at 2200 rpm
4th to 5th: Shift at 2200 rpm
5th to 6th: Shift at 2200 rpm

This is where the ECO mode tells you to shift at. I am curious to see where the "green" zone for rpm's are in B.U.D.S. for the 2014's. I know with the 998 the "green" zone is from 3999 rpm to 6999 rpm.

Your information is the same that I have also seen to date.

I wonder how long it will take for me to get used to this.....

 

[Kratos]

That's gonna feel so weird.....

 

[Bob Denman]

No... It's gonna feel freakin' AWESOME!! hyea::yes:hyea: :2thumbs:
I understood the SE-5's protocals; I just never quite dug them!

Bob, if I remember right you already shift at these points except for 5th to 6th.. :roflblack: well...... you did.

I was low and slow on the tachometer until I learned a bit about toasting clutch plates... :shocked:
I moved it up to shifting at about 4800 to 5200 rpm...

The silence might very nice. :bowdown:

I moved it up to shifting at about 54800 to 5200 rpm...

54,800 is pretty darned tight! :yikes:

To me, the really great thing about the triple is that it has more torque at 2000 RPM than the 998 cc engine has at any RPM.

pps: It felt as if it was that high... pps:

I am guessing it will feel a lot like reving up a big bore cruiser. I believe the shift range was 2300 or so on my Vulcan 2000. They did not come with a tach though.

So Bob: you did come around to the higher shifting points. Last I heard, you were up to 4500 or so. Good for you. :thumbup: Now you will have to "unlearn" the bad habit. :roflblack:


It will be a new learning curve for all that give the RT a try.

A minute thirty seconds:clap:

I learned a lot from my Grampa Denman when it came to engines...
He always had a Case 580 Backhoe, and he did "a little digging for some folks" with it.
I never heard hinm take it up past a fast idle... yet he did more in an hour with it, than most folks could do in a day... nojoke
He rarely took a tooth off of a bucket, NEVER had to make an extra swing or adjustment to where he was putting anything...
The smartest and wisest man that I've ever known...
And I miss him every day! ray:
