Default M50 vs C50 gearing question

OK, so I'm reading up on the new 2008 Suzukis and happened to find something about the C50 Limited. Basically, the C's version of the '07 M.

2008 : Boulevard C50 Limited Edition

In the verbage, I find this: "Five-speed transmission features a high fifth gear ratio for relaxed highway cruising"

Huh?

I thought both used the same drivetrain. If not, and the 08 C has a taller 5th...well...you all know what I'm thinking.
