I don't think power is necessarily the issue; it's the gear ratios.
One of the things that I never really understood was why there would be such a large jump on the GZ 5th gear ratio - There is plenty of oomph when you hit 60mph in 4th for example, but the drop off to 5th makes it essentially as far as you can go in that bike. With some varying gear ramps and different cog heights I think a 6 would work just fine in the GZ even at the limited stock power, though it would take some serious R&R to get it right, which would make the whole bike cost more, which doesnt make sense when it's priced to a certain market. In order to be worth more, it would have to produce more....power....
WW is right.
