[QUOTE="cleonard, post: 55634, member: 21"] Everyone seems to be focused on peak horsepower. The peak number makes very little difference. It's torque that accelerates you and four strokes have a big flat torque curve. Two strokes have a peaky one. Even if a two stroke has more torque at one RPM it's that flat torque curve that will get you to the next turn quicker. One thing about two strokes is the powerband makes you feel like you are going faster. At least it seems like it to me. In reality the rider is more important than the machine. [/QUOTE]
