Question what can I expect?

Hey guys. I am making arrangements to pickup my new 09 RKC this Friday. Can barely sleep I'm so stoked. Here is my question. I had the shop put on the stage 2 kit 103". Also, D&D Fat Cat 2 into 1. What should I expect for torque and hp numbers. In truth, I know next to nothing about dyno runs, and tuning. I just want the bike to be a blast to ride. However, after reading these threads about performance, I am curious. I know every bike is different, but as far as a ballpark figure.....what numbers should I see.

By the way....the dyno man said he put a base map in, and will do the final tune in two weeks, after I put my first 1000mi. on the bike.

You should expect a really fun bike... I got my 06RK rode it stock for a few weeks then the parts were all in for the 103 kit. Man what a difference, have 9200 miles on it now and no major issues, starts OK, runs strong, get good milage, etc... They dynoed mine right away and then I came back after 500 miles and they dialed it in again. The only thing you should keep and eye on is heat (I am installing an oild cooled this weekend) and nuts and bolts getting rattling loose.

Good luck with it and ride safe.
