so i just realized this...not sure if this is normal, opinions?

when i first turn on the bike and put the key in and turn it on, the RPM needle goes up to 6k, pauses then goes back down....when i start it, let it warm it up a bit, i rev it up, itll go past 6k still but the red light thingy starts blinking...like its redlining..but not cutting off...i didnt realze this much when i last rode it(havent riden it lately due to weather) but i know on my previous bikes, that when i turned them, the needle would go all the way up to 12k+ and then go back down...just found this kind of odd....anyone know whats up with this?
 
mate this just the default setting for your redline/change up ,you can adjust it easily enough check your manual

This is showing the "Set" rpm limit. In the manual it will show you how to change this to the limit you want. It is only visual and does not have any affect/control over the engine.
 
Details in the "How To" section on all the dash settings etc :-

Set the redline threshold by :-

Redline threshold (engine off only)
Press C, release, and press again
Release C when desired RPM is reached

It sometimes resets itself to where your's is now and sets the clocks to km/h if the battery has been low when starting.
