RPM's @ 80

Thrux is running at around 5k going 80, climbs to 5.5k at 85-90. Wondering if she is due for a gear change, or do you all think this is a healthy RPM. (Highway commuting, as the mountains she does just fine!)

My Thrux does 4500rpm at 80 with the 19t. The one tooth up is about a 300rpm save on the engine and doesn't seem to mind in stop n go traffic. I'll probably change the rear for a little more upper end since most of my travels are highway. For some reason on the 18t and crankin' it hard, I kept trying for a 6th gear.

SAME HERE! 6th would have been perfect... guess I'll try out the 19 tooth. So New Bonneville for the order?
