Well, here are some numbers:
14/42 or 15/45: 3:1 - Stock
15/47: 3.13 - the most popular setup (what I'm running)
15/48: 3.2
14/43: 3.07
14/44: 3.14
14/45: 3.21
So, what I'm running is a 5% difference or so, and in terms of ridability, the difference is huge. If you're spending a lot of time on the highway, I wouldn't go higher than that. Highway is fine for me on the highway, except for a nagging feeling that I'm beating on the engine revving so high (which I'm pretty sure is just in my head).
If I were in your position, I'd change to a 15t front sprocket because they're cheap and it could delay a headache down the road replacing the rub strip. I'm really happy with 15/47. If you want to stay with the 14t front,, 14/44 looks like a nice ratio.
