Same reason why H22s have a lower redline than B18s.

It's due in large part to physics.

also because of the 2.0 vs the 2.2

It looks like no one wants to give him a more specific answer?

To get that extra displacement they've increased the stroke. Longer stroke = longer piston travel = higher mean piston speed and acceleration at equal RPM = lower redline to compensate, or else ---&gt; higher load (and side-load from piston to wall) = more prone to failure

Example: 99mm stroke k24's rev to ~7k; aftermarket k24's rev to 7.5k, the risk takers (who may have also modded their rotating assembly) are the ones pushing them much beyond 8k

To get even more specific I believe the f20 has an 84mm stroke and the f22 has a 90.7mm stroke

By designing for fatigue, we get something that can handle 10x more stress than it's ever supposed to see. This means I wouldn't be surprised it you can rev the engine to 15000rpm....a couple times. The trick is, engines are designed to last for many, many cycles...hundreds of hours at maximum stress. This means you get that warm fuzzy feeling of knowing you can rape your motor all you want, as fast as you want...and it won't blow. That is Honda reliability.

That is, unless you're exceeding the redline. If you do, I suggest you have a spare motor laying around so that you won't be stressing out too much every time you do it. And stress out you will, because by exceeding the redline you have effectively thrown that security out the window and turned your engine into a ticking time bomb. It will no longer last hundreds of hours. It will last less... a simple function of how much you exceeded the redline X how long. So when you do it, be aware that it's just counting down until it blows. And blow it will...and NOT after the factory intended hundreds of hours.

But hey, you only live once

I'm sure it can. I wouldn't be surprised if you can rev it to 15000rpm. Hell, I had a GSR motor at 12000rpm.

That just the nature of designing for fatigue....you end up with something that can handle 10x more stress than it's ever supposed to see. But, it will be able to do it millions of times, for hundreds of hours. This means you get that warm fuzzy feeling of knowing you can rape your motor all you want, as fast as you want...and it won't blow. That is Honda reliability.
