When I bought the CB I had no idea of how 90 HP would feel like riding such a motorbike, because I never owned one with so much power. Power was not a criteria for me to buy it. I bought it the way it is, liked to find out and didn't get disappointed.
If a motorbike would have a gadget that indicates the HP being used during rides, many riders would be surprised of how less they actually use during normal daily rides, this could make them sad or bring them into a mood to risk more than it is healthy...Even on less powerful bikes than the CB.
If the CB would have some more power right from start like 110 or 120PS, I would nevertheless most likely not ride any different from the way I always do. Smooth, low to medium reving, gliding. So its power isn't of any major interest to me. I enjoy the engine the way it is. And so probably will most of other CB owners do, not missing something.
And the rest of ambitious motorbike riders may miss something, if they would have bought a CB, which they don't....
