Of course the rider has to be able to exploit the gains for them to be worthwhile otherwise they become redundant..........

Even to the point where you have sacrificed your midrange completely just to see a big top end number? You'd have to ride it like a two stroke just to have any power but you'd have the disadvantage of still having the engine braking meaning that while you're likely to lock up the rear a lot downshifting for corners in order to keep the revs so high.
You'd better possess the finesse of a very experienced racer or have a decent slipper clutch to be able to ride a bike setup like that I think.
I could be completely wrong of course, it wouldn't be the first time.
I'd be more happy to sacrifice a few bhp in the top end to make a bike that drives off the corners better and is generally easier to ride.
