dyno numbers, should i be disappointed?
got my bike back yesterday after a total face lift.
i'll post pics soon as i had a busy weekend and didn't really have time.
along with adding a wimmer high flow air intake, i installed a pcV and have my samson street sweepers on the bike.
my bike dyno'd at 65 hp and 85 tq...should i be disappointed with these numbers?
i got about 25 miles in yesterday and the bike runs AWESOME. did some highway miles and the bike didn't seem to fight as hard to cruise in the 70-75 range, it was real comfortable there.
also, my pipes deepened up A LOT. my bike definitely picked up a set of *****.
i guess i shouldn't worry about the numbers if i'm ecstatic about everything else, but i was just wondering if this was on par...
thanks and sorry for the long post

The pipes on there are not conducive to very good gains over a stock system... Probably sound great though. funny you just picked up a couple HP over a normal stock motor. Should be more. Can you post your dyno results? By the way, results can vary drastically depending on conditions of the day, the dyno, etc...

How do you think it runs? I wouldn't get too caught up in the numbers, as it could be the dyno. If it runs good, ride and enjoy it.

Yeah, that sounds like stock #'s. You should be around mid 70's hp & high 80's to low 90's tq. Maybe they gave you the wrong sheet or your looking at the wrong #'s. But if you are impressed with the way it rides, then who cares about what it says on paper.
