You need to get your gauge cluster redone by Batee. When I bought mine, it was the same way. I could bury the tach past 8K and never hit the rev limiter. I used gps speed (Google Maps or Waze) on my phone to compare to tach one day and calculated it was at least 2K off. Having the shift light makes it even easier though as I can keep my eyes on the road and not have to watch the tach.
