Overlap associated to long duration cam is waste.
High rpm is waste.
Pumping loss is waste.
HYPOTHETICALLY, and bearing in mind we don't need high power when looking for all out FE, I would build a turboed SV with inlet cam phased for less overlap, and exhaust cam grinded shorter.
That would make a Miller cycle engine that would spin 3K @ 80mph in top gear.
That being said, I do like your particular bike in what she does provide : big fun factor (not really looking for that anymore myself, that is all)
