RPM for stock '09 m-8?

[Bently]

Can anybody tell me how many revs a stock '09 M-8 should be turning pulling a long hill?

thanks for your help.

The claimed target is 7600-7800rpm. Word on the street is that the 09's liked to be run on the lower end of that target.

From what I am seeing the 09's like to be run on the upper end of the target. The ones I have been around like 7800rpm, they seem to perform much better there.

I stand corrected!

My m8 runs well between 7800 -8000.

My 09' M8 runs at 7800 pinned at 9000'

7900 to 8000 on the trail makes a perfect 7800 in the steep and deep runs like a basheeat 9000 thos poos and polaris cant touch.

These sleds rip

Our 2009 m8 153" le sno-pro runs on the flat 8040, on the hills it pulls 7760! It seems even running at 8000 rpm it still pulling!
