Default HP?

Ok, I know this has been covered 101 times. But since I just got my 2012 Street Glide I would like to know what the "best guess" is on HP? Stock? with the stage 1? All I am asking is ballpark. I know NASA has the actual locked up in the desert near Roswell N.M.

There are a ton of variables - head pipe, a/c, mufflers, etc.

But - stock, mine was 71HP and 87TQ

I put on a Fullsac X-Pipe B ceramic coated header, Kuryakyn Crusher mufflers, Fuelmoto AC, Powervision tuner.

It came to 79HP and 96TQ, about a 10% improvement which is about what you'd expect from a stage 1

I'd like to know what variance is typically seen with bike dynos and what gear these readings are taken in. I should be 6th, correct?
