I find the most comfortable rpm for both me (my ass) and the bike is around 5-7k, varying the gear to stay in that range.
Down around 4 it gets a bit choppier and doesn't respond as well. Personally, I use the throttle to "brake" more than the rear brake, at least when traveling at speed. (by that I mean I release the throttle to slow down, rather than immediately hit the brake)
