The answer lies in the fact that it takes more hp to go faster.

No question about that.
But anytime you lower a gear ratio, whether in the final drive or in the tranny, the engine spins faster, and therefore less torque on the crank shaft/clutch assembly, which in turn the clutch will be much less likely to slip. Its always been that way where I came from
So I'm confused
I thought we were talking about shifting up through the gears and increasing speed. So the rpms would be through the same range and finding a spot where it would slip at progressive speeds.
Seems you are talking about a constant speed and slipping the clutch then hunting for another gear that won't slip.
Seems to me that if you have a clutch that slips in several gears, you have a serious problem that you've ignored for far too long.

>>> UPDATE <<<
We received the Barnett clutch pack (Fibers/Steels) and new springs last week. An evening to disassemble and clean up, and on Sunday the reinstall and button it back up.
She was able to ride it home and her first comment was "Wow - there's so much power now".
Thanks for everyone's help on this one! Now off to search/read on the petcock fix as it just dies while at speed for no reason.

Barnett makes a good high performance clutch pack.
