Just wondering what's the difference between a wide frame sport and a narrow one?
Cheers Tomo
Wide or narrow?

You asked for it.....the difference is that one is wide, the other's narrow.
Seriously, according to my Ducati Twins Restoration Guide, for 1973 the rear sub-frame was narrowed so the the shock absorbers could be mounted outside the subframe. The new frame required a revised fibreglass fuel tank and a narrower saddle and rear mudguard.
To me, the narrower frame looks a little tidier.
