gear ratios and torque

Even still, it's a curve. To say you have an increase or decrease requires a fixed data point. For this example, you'd need "at what RPM" do we have X amount of torque with one gear versus X amount of torque with another gear at the same RPM. That's why I said what I did. You simply move the torque curve up or down in the RPM range depending on gear set. You cannot just look at the whole picture and say "this gear makes less torque than that one". That's incorrect and is the point I was trying to make. But my ego got in the way. Damn that thing.

your smart *** answer, ego ...I can think of no real reason you would even need to know this information anyway. for what possible reason do you care why I want to know this? it has no bearing on anything wth ...I can think of no real reason you would even need to know this information anyway.
