Quite frankly I don't see a problem with the gearing. If you need a little added zip at 45 mph just drop down one gear and twist the the throttle. You don't have to be in top gear all the time. Use the tranny in a gear that will give you the most zip at any given speed.
As an intown and local roads bike the GZ is geared pretty well spot on in my opinion.
Another option may be a 16 tooth front sprocket and never use 5th gear. There is your 4 speed for the price of a sprocket. A lot of riders prefer the 16 teeth up front as the gears reach further into their speed range. Hope this makes sense to you.
As a commuter you will find the GZ quite a tidy little gem. Comfy, nimble and very forgiving.
