That is very proper temp. Mine generally runs 195 until it reaches AC usage & hills.
You're fine.
Check hoses!

Sounds fine.
My RS ran like that in town and cruising the highway the temp would go up and down between 220 and about 185.
I set my fan up with a toggle switch to run when I want it too.In town it stay around 180 unless I have the air on.On the highway it's the same.For some damn reason the temp will raise with the air on and will not cool down untill I stop.I can let it idle for a few minutes and it cools down.But as soon as I start moving it starts climbing.I'm thinking of buying a dual fan kit.Hopefully that will help.

The next time you think your perfect,try walking on water!
