Yeah you aint kidding that the IL4 sports bikes are quicker around corners. I can go into corners at speeds that would scare me on the SV and find I have to adjust my line mid corner because I am turning in too sharp. In comparison the SV is resistant to turning and just wants to go in a straight line.
I don't think there is much difference in 0-60 time because you can only go so quick and keep the front down. In fact I could probably launch off the lights quicker on the SV simply because I can use full throttle in first gear whereas I haven't got the balls to find the limits of that on the IL4 - I tend to launch slowly then hook 2nd before opening her up.
Over 60 though and the IL4's go absolutely ballistic and keep pulling like a train right up to the SV's top speed.
