Default Rpm and Mph

What rpm are you guys turning at 65mph? I've just bought this bike and I'm turning 6k in 6th at 65mph. Is this normal? It seems kinda high to me, but then again I'm not very familiar with this bike.

I believe the rear is supposed to be 44 tooth.

Mine runs at 5000- 5500 at 100km (60miles) in 6th depending how windy it is
