Personally, I don''t value HP #''s as much as most people. I am more concerned about the details- user friendliness, cornering, braking, feedback, stability, reliability, and overall fun.

Taking that into consideration, I am guessing I will always own a Honda.

There is no way that your bike is making only 146 hp with the mods if it was setup correctly. The dyno your using probably hasnt been calibrated recently. I have an 08 with two bros, bmc filter, PCIII and I am getting 159.1 and 81.3 ft lb tq, stock was 153.9 and 80.0. Got the ignition module on order.

Completely agree. These numbers are basically what my 08'' 1k tested on the dyno. I have the same mods with the exception of the bmc filter. Again, weather plays some kind of a factor in numbers and over all preformance.
