i would guess its the OHV verses the L-head that made the difference. they tend to do that.

down with flatheads so we can finally get out of last century and welcome in the new age of OHV/OHC motors who are supirior in al ways!

I would guess its the OHV that makes the difference. I've also read that the OHVs are quieter. I always wear ear muffs and sometime have plugs in as well and they all sound the same to me .
