PRetty sure the sport has a 6 speed and dual front discs, maybe different bars, and slightly rear-set pegs. That's about it, maybe some other cosmetic stuff, different paint options, kinda like the difference between a T100 and bonnie, ya know?

Differences

"Depending on the model year, the major differences over the Thunderbird is the 6 vs. 5 speed gear box, 17" vs. 18” front/16” rear wheels, longer travel adjustable front and rear suspension, raised rearsets, dual front brakes, X75ish upswept balanced exhaust coupled with 82 bhp vs. 69 bhp and less shinny bits. The Thunderbird Sport was shod with Avon performance oriented tires that allowed confident canyon carving."

Thanks for the link it was very helpful. After reading it and knowing its top heavy I dont feel all that safe with it while my wife is on it with me.

Its a nice looking bike but I'll stick with getting a SM.
