On 110 kmh, my speedo is about 2200rpm. From the gearing calculator, it says you have 4.11 diff.

The standard XR diff ratio was 3.45:1, which is a compromise between performance and economy.

I'll run with the current combo for a bit and see if I get use to it for now, it's realistically not going to get driven too much anyway. May as well enjoy it.....
