What RPM range you find comfortable to ride? I usually ride at 8-9K.

8 grand in sixth puts me around 75 mph, so I run in that neighborhood on the Interstate. I actually prefer to run between 6000 and 7000, seems to be less vibration and a little more ooomph when you need it.

I just got mine, and I haven't had it on the freeway yet, but it seems 5000 - 5500 rpm is where I like to cruise. It's fairly quiet and has plenty of reserve power at this speed.

For cruising yes, but for how about "real" riding? Like mountain twisties?

Usually 6000 rpms, that seems to be the sweet spot. But out on the highwayI do bump it up

Out on the real twisties(in WV), I like to keep them pretty high but they vary quite a bit(5-10.5). it helps when cutting into and out of sharp turns. Engine breaking is much better and its fun to really hear and feel it scream out of the turn.
