I did it this way and it seems to have worked fine.
I used the Owner's handbook as a guide (as I do)
I set the shift light to go at 4,500rpm for the first 500ks and shifted at that sometimes.
I also went up to about 7,000rpm a few times but not flogging it, just accelerating hard.
After the 1st 500k I reset the shift light to 7,000rpm and left it there till after the 1st service at 1000k. While it was set on 7,000rpm, I took it up to redline on 1 or 2 occasions.
After the 1st service at 1,000ks, I reset the shift light to 9,000 rpm and have left it there.
If I am giving the bike a handful, by the time the light goes off at about peak torque, I shift or back off before I hit the rev limiter.
Bike now has over 4,000 ks on it and has not used any oil.
