All the same engine...
As for weight, I had my gf take a spin, she's like 105, far less than Dan
I would believe compensates for the different bike game, if any.

I've not read about anyone with his bike achieving what is claimed anyway, though they don't have a forum to make it known...


I also once had a 35# hunk of metal in my back pack, didn't notice much of a difference otherwise...
And this is because at highway speeds the primary factor is overcoming wind resistance not the delta of already moving mass...

I'm going to look at the chain/ratio discrepancy... Occam's razor...
