HP/Torque readings

mac · 11-20-2008, 04:41 PM

I was looking at the paperwork the guy gave me who sold me my bike. He had it dyno tuned, and looks like the numbers are (if I remember right, I'm not at home) 68.1 hp & 89.9 torque.

Does that sound about right? Is that good, average or what?

Just wonderin' where I am on the performance scale.

Thanks

Ya, for the 1600

i believe HP rating (stock) for the 1500 is around 54.

I'm getting 64.8 Max Power and 83.5 max torque out of my 1500 with pipes and intake redone. They (Gadget) say that if you get 10% increase you're doing good, so you might be right with 54 HP stock. Without looking it up, the 1600 was a touch better than mine, stock.

assume it is the 1600. Sig line says 1500 died.

Yes, it's an '05 1600 Nomad. It does have the Thunder intake, V&H pipes, and a PCIII installed. The 1500 I had was an '02 1500 Classic Fi I totalled New Years Day '07, this is about the Nomad.
