It's been long enough that, well, I feel comfortable talking about it now.
A few weeks into ownership, I was just starting to get comfortable with the LT and figured I'd 'give er the beans'. WOT in 3rd, Preparing to grab 4th when my stupid learned reflexes from the last bike had me select 2nd*. Lord only knows how high it revved, but it didn't do it for very long. I'm not even sure I let the clutch fully out before catching it.
Didn't seem to cause any lasting damage as I've put another 1000 miles on it since then and it runs like a champ.
So...what happens when you accidently overrev a Brickmotor?
*= last bike had a heel and toe shifter...brain said 'Grab another gear', foot said 'stomp'.
