6200-6300 seems to be the recommended sweet spot for the Vrod crowd and unless she is way too deep I don't see you gaining 900 rpms. You're on the right road though as motor height needs to right first. The only time it will differ is if you go to a different diameter prop or to a 3 blade which I wouldn't recommend.
The Rev 4 is a great prop for bracketed hulls as the extra lift really helps counteract the reduction in running surface. Keep us updated.
