It's selection that would limit you. Your only real option is to tailor the final drive to meet your needs, even though it affects the entire range.
Another option is to drop in a transmission from an XR200R; you'd get six gears, but it's really only an extra gear sandwiched in between 2-3 or 3-4 (can't remember which). I haven't tried it yet, but I intend to.
