It's fairly obvious that the 1100cc Yamaha and the 800cc Suzuki are incredibly close in size.
what's depressing is, as you go up in displacement, you tend to go down in compression.

The honda 750 runs like 10:1 and the 1100 runs something like 8:1, negating in part, some of the reason of going to a larger bike.
