[QUOTE="cleonard, post: 157469, member: 21"] Horsepower is for pissing contests, the important graph is the torque. The shape of the torque curve is the essential difference between the two and four strokes. The two stroke has a pronounced peak where the four stroke is much flatter. The four stroke curve is also much broader in rpm. The two stroke may make more peak power, but the four stroke makes broader more even power. The two stoke hit makes for a great grin factor that is undeniable. That surge of power can make anyone giggle like an evil mastermind. Four strokes just don't do that. They simply have power pretty much everywhere. [/QUOTE]
