How much $ for more HP 3 Years, 7 Months ago  
Ok..I've been lurking in the shadows for about three weeks. Just bought my first Roadstar 4 weeks ago (07 1700 Midnight)I'm 46 and have been riding bikes for 30 years.
Did the break in, dropped the junk oil, put a 1000 mi on, pulled the AIS and did stage two to exhaust mod.
Bike runs awesome but.... It's gutless...yea i know it's a cruiser but there has to be more power there
I'm ready to pull the trigger on the Roadhouse 2 to 1 classic and the infamous Baron BIK. My question is....How much HP does my stock bike put out and what kind of return can I expect....10%...5% or more.
No one really say's the gains ...all I read is about the jetting grief...I'll worry about the grief later. All I want to know is the $800.00 worth the HP gains

Looking forward to all the input....good and bad! I have alot of respect for the opinoins from my fellow roadies so let it fly!
