Area under the curve matters more than max torque. The V4 has enough torque that the slight bit less it has compared to the 1299 will be far outweighed by the fact that the v4 revs so much higher, giving a LOT more area under the curve.

If you integrate the area under the torque vs engine frequency curve, you get the Horsepower curve. Convert RPM to radians/second and power to hp using 1 hp = 550 ft*lb/sec. Integrate torque(RPM)*d(RPM) to determine area under the curve using the trapezoidal rule. The area of each trapezoidal slice is a HP data point vs RPM. -or you could just look at the HP curves in my video.

As engineers we don't depend on gear commander to do 7th grade reduction calculations. You're talking in circles to arrive at my video's conclusions: V4 easier to ride fast on track, bigger top end. 1299 Better street and canyon bike and doesn't sound like a weed wacker over 7K. Until we ride it, we're all talking out our ass.

Ummm... condescending much?

Hey, at least we can agree on the last sentence. Look forward to demo'ing one to find out!
