By deducing an few things it sounds like the '09 EFi has about 128 HP (122+6) According to Yamaha it makes it at 8,000 rpm What does this equate to in terms of Torque? The nytro makes 92 lbs so I'm guessing this engine makes more?
What is the torque peak? At 8,000 it makes 84 lbs. but I would guess that Yammie put some pretty strong cams in to bump low end torque over the FX, what's the number for peak torque at what rpm?
Thanks

From Chris Reid, so I take this in combo with Nytro dynos that the Venture Engine makes over 92-94 lbs of torque at trail rpms. Nice.
"Hi Dane, I am looking at a torque comparison chart between the new Venture motor and Nytro, unfortunately I can’t publish the data due to policy but I can tell you the Venture produces more torque than the Nytro from 3000 rpm up to 7000 with the largest spread below 5500rpm, the horsepower is almost identical through this range in fact it (Venture) has slightly more HP under 6000rpm. The planets align at 7000rpm and both engines are equal up to 8000rpm then the Nytro horse power and torque exceeds the Venture, but not by a whole lot. Appears to me the torque curve of the new 120+ is bigger and smoother than Nytro but Nytro has an extra kick in the higher RPMs… On the trail what you get is very strong smooth power in the Venture and more explosive power when ‘on-it’ with a Nytro. Hope this helps. 09 Venture GT / TF is a ’sleeper’ and may surprise some of the ’sport sleds’ in the real world… cheers cr

Chris describes it well.
He certainly knows.
I rode them both last Friday and the way Chris explains it is spot on.
Once people ride the GT they will be plenty surprised.
Yamaha has a very nice motor in the GT package.
IMO no need for anything bigger.
The application is "Touring".

I must agree I rode them both back to back and the venture gt, felt stronger, impressed me!
