Harley does not publish Hp numbers, and is infamous for overstating torque. 92.6 ft/lbs is what they state for the TC96.

Realistically, check this site for stock numbers, and for what others are getting with various upgrades:

Dyno numbers vary a lot from dyno to dyno and tuner to tuner. If it runs good, and your happy, don't get hung up on the numbers.

IIRC, HD tq specs are measured at the crank, not the rear wheel (which is what the dyno measures), so they don't reflect the parasytic losses in the drivetrain.

+1 on the "if it runs good, and you like it" then be happy and ride.
