You're still increasing the force of drag with the square of the velocity,
so... higher velocity is going to be more drag, no question.
Fd = 2*p*(v)^2*Cd*A
where
Fd = force due to drag
p = density of the fluid you're moving through
v = velocity
Cd = drag coefficient (which is probably what you were
Plus the gearing especially for the highway is a serious overdrive, and the
wind protection is fantastic so i would expect the drag to be a lot less.

True it is a much higher performing bike, but most of the time I'm riding it

Okay, going to take a stab at this.
One, your bike makes 46% more power than the Nighthawk with only a 6% bump
in displacement (ish). It weighs ever so slightly more, only really
applicable during acceleration.
The bike is setup to encourage higher speed travel, which increases drag and
increases

I'm hoping the experts on this board (and hopefully Dennis H) can give me
some guidance on a problem with my '92 NH750, with over 85K miles.
On one hand, the engine floods when the bike is parked, leading to hard
starts. Turning off the petcock between rides makes this manageable.

I went with this

That and the yogurt cup inside my K&N ;). It purrs like a kitten, even when
cold now. I can twist it up to any rpm with no pops or snap it right to 8K.

I've seen a pic of your 700S and I think you should just sell the
bike to me, We need more in PA, in my garage in particular and then
your throttle problems will be solved - right Dennis?

I am running a K&N air filter on my 84 700S, with the "Hammerl"

No, that's another story altogether. The small displacement multi's were still
part of the racing program. The opposed four / six came much later as they
invested heavily in the large touring market.
