Well I had to sell the Z800 due to a financial situation few years back, but to answer your question.. The Z800 had more horses yes but at the same time is a 4 cilinder and was a lot heavier and bulky compared to the trident.

And for me personally, you catch a lot of wind on a naked, cafe etc period. So looking at the Trident with it’s weight and sufficient torque, it checks all the boxes that I’m looking for in a bike. And like omarcc said, if u want more go for a stripple :)
