    Speed triple RS, my tach goes yellow at 5k to match the sticker on the tank at less than 300 miles, should hit 300 tomorrow. Not even highway speed yet.. manual is vague as I can after 500 miles hit redline for short periods vs the tank tag limited to 8k. Misinformation for warranty Dodge, disclaimer?

    Agree with Andy just go for it once you have a few miles on it...

    Hi Mate & Welcome to the Forum :cool:
    Not sure why but the stickers with run in procedure don't match owners book?
    Generally the dash lights/colour has been set at factory for run in period, once the first service is done this is reset, but normal rules of running in apply, don't let is labour, don't rev it too high for long periods, vary your speed & gears, sometimes I find it easier to go on much slower back roads than normal, that way you are breaking it in properly not sat in top at same revs for long periods.
