Let's agree that high CR only works with big duration cam (to stay within acceptable dynamic CR limits), precise timing and optimal fuelling.

When building the GPZ and ER5 engine, Kawasaki applied basically the same dynamic CR to two differently cammed engines.

I am not a huge fan of the brand but I'll give them credit on building reliable engines and will stick with the target dynamic CR.
