comfortable cruising speed for the 1050

what do you consider your comfortable cruising speed on the 1050 ST.
Me i regularly hit 100mph+ and sits there effortlessly even when loaded up with luggage etc.
infact before I know it, when I accelerate and get into top gear, I`m doing 100+

but what i`d like to know is, whats the optimum speed, to get the best out of the bike (fuel economy etc)
