I am abit worried if this is too little time , as Im not sure when the next flight would leave should I miss the original flight.

Thanks!
Yes, 1h 45min is plenty of time. Plane can be 1 hour late and still you will make it with ease. Its is really a tiny airport with 30 gates and simple floor plan.

I have done 41 separate 55 minute transfers in HEL, and so far I have missed 0 of these flights. I have also done 41 separate 40 minute transfers in HEL and missed 3 of them.

My personal best (running) is 5 minutes from gate to gate. And yes, nobody cares if you leg it in HEL.
