If memory serves, peg placement is lower.

I thought all the tuber frames were based off the S1, and thought the steering angle was the same. But great question.

Rake/trail figures are the same. Pegs are higher and further back on the S1.

rear subframe is also different with the M2 version being much longer and at a 'flatter' angle than the S1, so you can't just put an S1 seat unit/tail on an M2 without work.
