yes, but the aerodynamics of the KTM are crap, which i thought would make the SV more of a contender at higher speeds

As for the power, I would guess that the way the KTM power arrives makes it feel like it's got a whole lot more. Also has the KTM got a quick action throttle making it easier to get onto full bore?

no quick action throttle but it has the FCR-MX carb with the throttle pump, if you open the throttle quickly it just throws fuel straight into the engine bypassing the butterfly / slide / jets completely
the two bikes have similar throttle throws
