Higher gearing?

Has anyone raised the gearing? There's lots of talk about lower gearing for off road riding and I totally get this, but I'm not sure if I can stand the high revs all the time on the road for ever.

Keeping up with the traffic sees my bike living around 7500 and this is tiring and noisy. I can redline the bike in top on any flattish road and so wondered if it was feasible to replace the rear sprocket with something smaller thereby raising the gearing and making the whole thing a bit less frantic.

I'd appreciate your thoughts
