Are they going to beef up the drive shaft from the Concours [] I could be wrong, but my guess is the power output of the supercharged motor is the reason they didn’t make it shaft drive to begin with.
At the crank, it is only about 40hp more that the C14, and the peak torque amount is almost identical to the C14 (101/102ftlb), although the C14 develops it at a nice 6200rpm instead of much lagged 9500rpm on the SX , so it shouldn't be difficult to design a shaft drive to handle that, even using a shorter design from the C14. The C14 is heavier, so that is stress, too.
