My engine is lumpy below 3k rpm (evidenced by the dancing fluid resevoirs), but anything above 3.5k rpm is fine.

I don't tend to ride at night, so the Osram Nightbreaker bulbs I've put in are perfectly adequate for me.

Hoorah for Wurth Dry Chain Lube. Not had any issues with lube on my rear disc, and the rear brake works brilliantly on mine.

I agree with everything else.

It's probably just a very personal thing and probably depends upon a lot of factors. I'm 5'10" as well and weigh 11.5 stone. Most of my riding is long distance (200 miles to 600 miles) which is when I notice the issue and why it is very important to me. The fact that the Evo is not as comfortable for me as the M1100 was a big surprise.
