must have a screaming eagle tuner/download
for the V twin 6K is about max for valvetrain reliably...higher than that the valves may float and smack a piston

yes, but I have hit the limiter @ 55 before so why does it not do that anymore,, have not done anything to it?

Instrument error, or you just happened to see it at 5,500 from the rev limiter hitting and causing an rpm drop. The factory installed tach isn't the most accurate either.
