you're exactly right. you "can" rev up to 7,200RPM and be fine, but in general a redline is set becuz that's where the engine stops making good power compared to fuel use. Just stick to shifting at 6,500, you don't want to be bouncing the engine off the rev limiter anyhow, that's really hard on components.
