Thanks for sharing your experience.
The bogging down was on fairly smooth seasonal roads. I was trying to keep up with bigger machines and would be cruising in 4th gear heading into the hill. Motor would die off pretty quick and I'd shift down to 3rd gear and then 2nd near the top of the hill. I don't think I would have any issue at all going up the hills in 2nd other than falling way behind.

The rockier hills that everyone had to go slow on I climbed right up with little trouble in lower gears.

I don't think I could mod anything to change it.
