2013 suspension changes?

I'm pricing out a 2013 sv291 for order and the MSRP sheet has the Diamond Package (to replace the anniversary pkg?) with the "equa-flex suspension system".

Is this the same as the "independent Torsion Suspension System" in the 2012 models?

No, it is not.

Equa Flex Suspension Enhancement

Thanks for the link. What caught my eye in the link was " as smooth as torsion but at a fraction of the cost". Any humble opinions on the the equal-flex?

You're welcome!
I read through a couple threads in forums while doing that search. Seems to be a big improvement over simple leaf springs.
IMO - there is no comparison to true independent torsion axles.
