FYI... for a 135i with 6MT it is around 2,200 rpms.

I think I saw a chart of the speed and the RPM in each gear from some magazine some time ago, but I can not find it now.
This is not the direct answer to your question but the theoretical top speed in each gear is as follows.

Mine is just on 2000. 2100 at 110kph - that's when the drone comes on . I do find rpm runs lower for the same given speed on the 1M than my 135i. I used to be able to have 60kph in 5th for my 135i and no longer can in the 1M.
