I ridden both AND dyno's can lie. I can just tell you what I felt with my butt dyno. It could be because dynos don't take the bike weight into consideration and that's why it felt weaker down low. I know the 1K definitely had a lot more up top. It could also have something to do with the SET vale that the 750/600's have. I know those ad a little extra low end torque.

Either way you're not going to lose on either bike. They both are fantastic rides.
