Question 120 cc engine

Greetings to all. Anyone have any experience or thoughts in running the 120 engine in their bike other than the exhilarating feeling shifting from 4th to 5th and 5th to 6th?

I think a 120cc engine would be a significant letdown.

I run a 120" evo...great low end torque and pulls hard all the way up to redline. I "only" have a 5 speed so I can't speak for 5th to 6th
