800 vs 850 - torque question?

Which one lays down more torque? Don't care about the extra HP of the XP, just interested in torque.

Much differance between the two?

My guess is that the 850 has more torque than the 760.

can't compare the 800 to the 850-

the 850 is a different motor all together and has more hp & tq over the 800.

torquewise there probably isnt as big of a difference as the hp difference. usually engine size more or less determines the torque, engine design determines hp. the 850 ios a much more high tech design, but most people couldnt use all the 800 has to offer, plus it never needs valve adjustments. i like that
