You are correct, Daniel; the manual shows some crazy numbers there.
For your type of riding, try keeping the engine between 6K and 8K, regardless of the speed of the bike.
You do achieve that manipulating the gears.
For more spirited riding, you can move the range up a couple of thousand rpm's; lets say keeping the engine spinning between 8K and 10K.
With time you will develop a sense for the proper rpm's via vibrations and engine noise.
