Correct on the 5 speed. I know a couple guys that bought 450sxf and put a 6th gear in the trans. I am not going to do that. The 450 i rode a couple weeks back was geared at 14/52 and though it was fast, it was not geared right for what I ride and like. 14/50 will give me better use of 2nd and 3rd and allow a little more up top for the open valleys...
