Default gearing/RPM problems

The reason the Spyder is running such High RPMs is becuse the Aprilla RSV1000 engine from which the Spyders engine originated was a 6 speed tranny . Rotax took the 6 sped and made a 5 speed with a reverse. The Rotax engine is bulletproof so dont worry about the RPM and being the Spyder isnt very stable over 65MPH you dont want higher gearing anyway
