Horsepower vs. Torque ?

[DBXXX_imp]

The weirdness of comparing these numbers is because they're peak values. A Harley (and maybe an Indian?) hits that peak very early and then tails off. Torque at high RPM generates big peak horsepower. 83 lbs of torque and 193 horsepower on that BMW means the torque keeps going in the high range; you hear people talk about 'pulling in any gear' and that's what they mean.
