The KTM obviously has a good 30 or so more bhp/tonne with an 80Kg rider aboard. So to 60 it will most certainly have a significant edge, and give sharper throttle response at lower speeds, although I bet the close stacked gears contribute to that too.
The SV probably won't have any edge till you're at 80mph plus.
