The MTA's new select bus service the M15

The M15 is a bus service that serves my neighborhood. The MTA has recently introduced a new select bus service the M15 SBS which has replaced the M15 limited. For the new SBS service riders have to board by swiping their metro cards at turnstiles on the street rather than dip their metro cards at the drivers kiosk. The new bus will makes stops at every 10 blocks and thus will provide a speedier commute. I dont know I quite liked the M15 limited, I thought it was pretty fast(!). Has anyone ridden on the new M15 SBS? the M15 travels up First Avenue and then turns around and comes down Second Avenue in Manhattan.
