Pulling the power out of the 103 ci motor
Looking to buy a 2012 Wide Glide and want to what its going to take to get around 100hp out of this motor without any major modifications ( its already 103 ci for Gods sake! lol) Looking at pipes, tuner, cams and maybe ports. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

How many HP does it have stock? Exhaust and tune?

There are countless options if you go aftermarket. If you stick with HD parts this should get you there:

my '08 fatbob has the SE 103" stage II kit and it is incredible now that I have powervision. To answer squidley c IMO if you got the cams and the clutch spring kit with a good tuner such as PV , obviously pipes and high flow air cleaner, you would already reach very close to 100 HP and tq. If you go with ported / polished heads, about the same, if you add the 2 together you would very likely get above 115 HP, then more often than not you will unintentionally squeel your back tire away at every light.
I almost forgot to say , monday I was out riding when this ducati screamed by me, so I caught up and the next car he passed I stayed right on his heels, he freaked that a harley could even remotely keep up let alone keep pace. we were going average 80 to 110 mph. I don't yet feel I need to get any more power than that. Also obvious is that he has way more top end , but on country highways you can't often go over 110 mph face it.

However, it has more torque than the GSXR did and that is a blast to ride around city streets(I am right outside of NYC).
I wouldn't fret too much about power, even if you get the power you still have to realize these bikes don't really like to lean. I've already scraped exhaust and pegs without trying to lean.
Hell, I could get a knee down if I wanted too.
I digress..
