Talking What is MOST important? HP, Torque, or Displacement??

Hello Hello,

I'm in a marketing class and need to do a research project so why not do it on what I love? Motorcycles and Engines!

If you could help me answer what is most important for you when selecting a bike; hp, torque, or displacement by answering this 1 MINUTE survey i would really appreciate it!

Nice survey, dub.
I think it's "maximizing the package." There are plenty of "if only" bikes out there.
Welcome the forums.
Gear up; stay safe.

Roughly it came out that 50% wanted to have the most torque, 25% hp, and 25% displacement. Of the 25% that said displacement most felt that with higher displacement, Higher HP, and torque #'s automatically follow.

Thanks Again.
