Re: CCM GP 450......was it any good?

I bet the 6 gear box makes a huge difference, but where does the 25% extra power claim come from? The SR has the power pack as standard (PC & quill exhaust) so uncorked from 40 - 52 bhp. That's plenty enough power for me & I had no trouble keeping up with a couple of GS1200's round the Peak...
