Opinions differ as to whether the 865cc engine is significantly better than the 790cc, personally I think it is.
I couldn't tell the difference at all. I assume dyno results would differ, and maybe top end speed. I'm really not sure though, I'd like to see these two engines compared/reviewed... has anyone done this?

Not sure what you're saying. If you've ridden Bonnies with both engines and couldn't tell the difference why would you want to see them compared/reviewed by someone else? For you, there would still be no difference. Your opinion (and mine) is just as valid as any "professional" motorcycle journalist. I rode a 790cc Bonnie back to back (and back again) with an 865cc T100 and felt that whilst the difference wasn't huge, it was significant, and the extra midrange pull of the 865 (alongside the tacho and chrome bits) made it worth the (relatively small) difference in price. I can imagine (and accept) that somebody else performing the same excercise might come to a different conclusion, hence the caveat in my original statement.
