How do you disable the rev limiter on a honda st1100

[Ron]

For an 1100, I think the rev limiter is 8500 and red line is 8000.

It probably retards the timing so that burning efficiency is diminished, thus less power without actually killing the engine. That's my guess anyway.

Much better explanation than mine!

It probably retards the timing...

Yep, feels like TCS kicking in (on an ABS model...)
