It really bothers my son the his 150 HP Yamaha R-1 has only 78 ft. lbs of torque and my 70.5 HP Sporty has 79 ft. LBS. The HP occurs at 5,800 and the torque peaks at 3,500 but the torques curve is fairly flat from 2,500 to 4,500.

At one time I had two Saito .72s, I planted one in the center of a concrete road in Ft. Belvoir, Va, Dar Zeelon now owns the other one. I had an .82 about the same time and sold it not fully broken in. w8ye has the only .91 I owned. I now own a 1.00 I just put new bearings in and it's great.
