Yes, I stayed under 5000 rpm for about 600 miles but that limited me to under 50 mph. It is my understanding that after the first 500 miles the engine can be revved to higher rpm. I was riding state highways so there were twists and hills and only a few stretches of straight highway so hopefully the RX3 can handle that.

On the fuel leak... I noticed my fuel filter was wedged in under the tank causing one of the connections to be at an odd angle and potentially causing strain at the connection and a leak at higher rpm. Also a few of the bolts holding the fuel pump into the bottom of the tank were loose so I tightened them a bit. And lastly the overflow tube was empty so I zip tied the plug to see if maybe it was the cause of the apparent leak. Also disconnected and reconnected all of the quick disconnects.

Thanks for the tips! Next ride is tomorrow morning.
