I put it up for general interest. It was not meant to be negative. I was surprised at the faster 0-60 of the SF. It looks like the same had more HP but that may just be sample variation... I bet the weight of the tires/front wheel makes a big acceleration difference. More rotational mass to get moving.
I have no power mods and the bike is fine for me.

I am guessing random variation.
