well spotted,i don`t understand the wider gap between ports bit ?
ive messaged them and am going to look for some more of them port map images ,if ime right they should flow more but not alter the revs when it comes on song as the heights are the same ?,i havent messed with porting since my x7 when i was 18 and did the bike magazine tune :D

Not so clever me thinks, as it was abolished on the later 1S, so probably about as much use as mens tits is my guess.
