Sounds like your final drive is too high for your tastes.
What ratio are you running?
Tire diameter?
Trans ratios?
I can put them in a spreadsheet and give you some idea what to change.
My kirkham is a 3.55 final drive, TKO 600 (.82 fifth) and billboard Goodyears - I'm right on the speedlimit at about 2100.

Second question: Have any of you changed to a TKO from a T56? Sixth gear is fairly worthless below 80 and first gear is too high in the T56 for me.
