While there are several factors involved in torque/HP curves, with the EV-27 cam, my evo gets max torque at about 4000rpm and max HP just above 5000.

I don't know, if the bike reaches max HP at around 4k, why would u want to rev it until the valves float?

You and I have a different definition of "bone stock"

No idea no tach. It lets you know if you getting to high it stops pulling after a bit you figure it out before it gets that high. Mine is 25 years old and stock. Carb has never been touched.

Maybe just a tad off-topic since I don't have a tachometer on my '95 fxsts, but I am curious about the rpm that I run and would appreciate some formula or chart that would tell me what rpm I am running using gear selection and speedometer. Like, for example, what rpm am I turning if I am in 3rd gear doing 45mph, etc...

My bike is stock
