If you ride within city limits (approx 60km/h), it's pretty hard to rev past 10,000rpm. Just make sure you accelerate smoothly and not hammer down on the throttle and you'll be fine. Even though your bike revs to approx 15,000rpm, you'll never hit that in the city without risking getting your bike impounded. As for how much of a change in power past 7000rpm.....it's quite different. The bike really wakes up, and the rate of acceleration will make your heart pound if you are not used to it. Even shifting at 5-6000rpm, you'll be faster than pretty much any car on the road.
