Arbitrary numbers
So from what I can tell the way that your bike shop has its dyne set up is a big factor here.
I had my bike dyno'd at the local HD shop after adding the 103" kit and it made 96hp/101TQ.
The bike was hard to ride after the kit was fittted so took it to an independent and it made 83hp/92TQ or somewhere in that region on their dyno!
When I challenged this reading they said that the dynojet equipment comes with a standard factory default configuration file that is actually not accurate and that they have to download and install a new file after the dyno is installed. They said that often this last bit is never done by the slack shops so their readout will always be higher.
I have the power commander 5 with auto tune and the bike runs and goes like a dream with a genuine 87hp and 93.5tq.
50mm screaming eagle TBs go on tomorrow so will post back new dyne sheet.
OK so had the 50mm tb added and now running at 90hp and 97tq before it has had a good autotune run so would expect it to gain a tiny bit more. Good news is that it hasn't changed the character of the bike, just made its response crisper and pull harder.

Dyno Numbers Attached
V&H Two into Two
Arlen Ness Double Barrel Air
ThunderMax with Auto - Tune
Narrow Band Billet Hand Grips
See dyno numbers attached.
They don't look right to me. Maybe its the hand grips.
I am guessing they (the dealer) did not go through the "auto tune" process correctly.
It runs great. But, I could use a bit more power.

Stock 2007
Hope the picture works.
About 5K miles on my 2007 Night Train 100% stock for engine/performance mods.
SAE smoothing 5.
65.10 HP and 83.27 TQ.
TQ seems to come on strong, HP seems to climb slow.
They meet at about 5.25 RPM's, and drop at 5.59 RPM's.
Now to get some parts hung and a Dyno tune, and see what numbers I get with:
Rinehart 2-1.
H-D Super Tuner S.E. Pro 32109-08B.
K&N 63-1125 Air Charger.
S.E. plugs 32192-10.
S.E. wires 31907-08.
Amsoil or Redline oil in all three hole.
