Default 2004 Night Train Manual compression buttons

I made my first bike purchase of a 2004 Night Train. I took it to the local bike shop to get new rear tire and brake pads. He noticed the manual compression release buttons and said it wasn't stock. The guy that sold it to me didn't say anything about any mod's being done to it. Being a newbie can some give me an idea of what may have been done.

Comp releases def not stock. Has prob had some engine work done, most likely cams, headwork and high comp pistons. Does it run like a bat outta hell?
