Rev limit is there to prevent damage and improve long term reliability. The 2V monster engine produces it's best power in the midrange, so higher revs are a bit pointless. They just need to be ridden differently to get the best performance out of them. Try one of the bigger capacity monsters with more grunt and you might not feel the need for extra revs.
