I think it's like with anything else in the motoring world, if you work it harder, just do more maintenance... I mean, eventually all motors blow. By their very nature, engines have a limited lifespan. If you know what you're getting into, and you take as many precautions as possible, then just ride the bike as you need or like and don't worry too much about it.
There are things you can do to lessen stress, like play with some different gearing combinations. Since you're going to be on the highway and need the top speed, I wouldn't recommend the 16T front sprocket unless you pair that with a slightly larger rear sprocket to counter balance it. You could also stay with the 15T front and get a slightly smaller rear for the same effect.
