So, my order is:

1. Raging Bull
2. X-Flight
3. Batman
4 Superman

Raging Bull is by far my favorite at the park. I think it's a solid hyper for B&M.

I also think X-Flight is a very good, unique ride and I have nothing against it, but for the total ride experience I think Bull delivers more.

Batman is a great, intense ride. When it opened in 1992 it was as top 2 ride for me. It does not top my SFGAM B&M list because I have ridden much better B&M inverts such as Montu at BGT.

As for SUF, well, it's a pretty generic B&M flyer. There's nothing particularly unique about it in my book and it is not even the best flyer of the ones I've ridden (SFMM Tatsu, SeaWorld's Manta). The fact that there is no real terrain for it to run around probably hurts it in my book.

My B&M ranking:
1. BTR
2. XF
3. RB
4. SUF
5. IW

XF v. RB is extremely close for me. Overall, the 4 current B&Ms at SFGAm are some of my favorite coasters.
Edit: IDK I like all the BMs especially RB, BTR, and XF

I thought Iron Wolf was the first B&M. Or are you talking about the Inverted coasters as a category? :?

Referring to their Inverted type in my post, although I'm one of those very fond of Iron Wolf (and B&M Stand Ups in general). If Iron Wolf were still around, it would be rank a very close 2nd to Batman on my list.

After riding X-Flight.
It's a tie for first place for favorite coaster (and B&M coaster) at SFGAm between X-Flight and Raging Bull.

X-Flight easily. It's glass smooth, has great inversions and pacing, and that first zero-G roll is perfect.

Bull has a great first drop but the rest of the ride is more "fun," not really intense.
See Superman but replace "first drop" with "pretzel loop."
Batman is my second-favorite B&M in the park easily.
