New guy from Cleveland
Hi everybody,
Joined the forum to find out what to do to make my HD more powerful. First Harley, but 10th bike, all previous were sportbikes and nakeds. Got the 2010 CVO softtail convertible because the wife is scared to death of the sportbikes and this bike seemed like a decent compromise.
Now for the downside. I just dyno'ed the bike for the first time and it came up with 78HP and 99ft. lbs of torque. Not what I was expecting from a bike with an approx. 1800CC engine. I like the bike but need more power so here I am. Tons of reading ahead of me.

I like emoticons.

The 110" has a lot more locked up behind the EPA mandated BS. I'd start off by letting it breathe and exhale a little better. If that doesn't satisfy you then look into one of the Screaming Eagle Stage Kits with heads and cams. If that still doesn't satisfy you then you better go back to Sportbikes (@_@)v. I run a Sreaming Eagle 103" Stage III on my 2001 Road King and it packs plenty. I also have a modified 2010 XR1200 for those times I really want boogie.
