this is why i posted, i thought the numbers looked low.

the bike runs fantastic. throttle response is there, and like i said when i got on the highway my bike was super comfortable at 75 where before my upgrades it was more comfortable at 65, and it was kind of a struggle to get up to the 75 range.

plus as rounder said, my pipes sound absolutely amazing.

i didnt want nor did i expect a drag strip burner, but i thought 65/85 was low.

OK. Then like others have said those are slightly low. I would think with your set up you should be in the 70's for hp and high 80's for tq. However a dyno is only as good as the operator. If you went to a dealer, sometimes they take it easy on the dyno

I recommend 2 cheap upgrades to fix the problem:

1-Get some good baffles to help gaining more power.
2-Get a new map.

It sounds low to me. I'd have guessed that you would pick up at least 12 HP and 8 TQ over stock with a Stage 1. Can you post the dyno sheet?

I would like to say that you can not compare with others. What you should compare with is other bikes on the same dyno, and before and after numbers.

My fat Bob got 68 hp with stage 1. If your butt tells you it runs good, trust your butt.

You ride a bike not a piece of paper. If it runs good and is up to your standard then all is good enjoy.
