Install an adjustable RPM triggered switch.
When activated, it switches your radio to MP3 and plays
any engine sound you want at full volume.

Something like this thing...2:10 mark

Hmmm...
My rev limit on my 08 TBW sounds exactly like my 07 fxstc cabled...
Only there for a fraction of a second by definition tho...
Not sure I care about how it sounds personally
Just a signal to shift

Hope this post helps others.

Did you ever find out if it has a fix? . I came here wondering the same thing. It kills a lot of power when it’s time to hit the limiter on a rolling burnout

He is not going to respond.

Have your bike tuned with an aftermarket tuner, and raise the RPM limit. Done.
