RE: Just Asking-RPM'S?
honestly... i stay at around 5000rpm. I tend to baby my bike and keep the stress off the engine as much as possible.
But that's me. However, ALWAYS look at the driver's next to you. If it's an old person (old women especially), woman, woman on cell phones, and any driver that's sitting up straight 2 inches away from the steering wheel and driving with 2 hands... make sure you get away asap.
If hot girls are next to you, downshift, put ur RPM's to 7000 and just cruise along side them.

The alternator is on even at idling... On some badly designed/older bikes the voltage at battery increases when you rev the engine, but I've measured my F4i and even at idling the battery's being charged (>14V). And revving the bike doesnt change the battery voltage much i.e. it's regulated!
In the manual it recommends change of gear at around 2500rpm...! I usually ride around 3000 in calm stretches, but keep it >4500 when power might be required.

On mine, her battery dies within a week if I rarely take her over 5k. hrmmm...[&o]
