perfectly safe, though my uk civic does about 2600 at 65mph. My galant does about 3300 at 65. At these speeds there's probably less wear on the engine than at idle.

I had the same setup, and yes it's fine. B18B redline is 7200 right? as long as your not riding 5500 rpm or more for hours you should be alright.
