Its like I need a 6th gear.

Uhh, unless your GS is radically different than mine, you do have a 6th gear right above 5th.... Unless you've done something funny with your sprockets, you should be able to go 75 without over reving the bike no problem...

I have a 6th gear!!!!?  oh wow lol but it still feels like I need a 7th...........

Fastest I have gone yet on mine was about 100mph passing a hay truck @ 8k in 5th- I don't think the GS suffers from a lack of gears. How fast do you ride regularly? The only reason for a bigger bike is because you just want one, anything else is a justification IMO. It's fine, I'm still planning on upgrading to a Triumph Street Triple after next year, but there is no logical reason to do it.

I dont know, I just feel it revs up higher than I want to cruise.. I stay at about 75 or lesser mainly due to the fact that I dont like to rev my bike higher, cause its my baby.  I think I can go faster but it just starts to scream higher than I like.  So in result I dont cruise fast as I like and the other bikers wizz by me lol. Anyways,

The sole reason I want a bigger bike is this: more power!

Wow, a street triple.. cool!  My dad has a 07 speed triple.  Maybe Ill get to ride it someday.. lol
