It's an '05, 1700, completely stock. Came out to 62 HP, 92 Ft. LBS of torque. The torque curve stayed above 80 from 1,800 RPM to 4,100 RPM. The HP curve is a nice 45 degree up slope from approx. 1,000 RPM to 4,200 RPM.

Admin Posts: 4326 Re:horsepower? 2 Years, 10 Months ago   Agreeing with the other comments in this thread. Torque falls as HP increases. They converge on Dyno charts at about (if I remember correctly) 5250 rpm. Most Road Stars can't rev that high, and Harleys can rev into the 6,000 rpm range. So the Harley's are going to show higher horsepower because they can get up into the right rpm range and work it out. Not because their engines are more powerful. HP is not real meaningful on Road Stars except in comparison to other Road Stars. This is one of the reasons I really like the Road Star. It is a stump puller. My power band is is the range where I like to drive it.

He stated that it had the STAGE III everything installed at the time he had the recall repaired. I went to the local Harley shop on free dyno Saturday shortley after I brought it home. After a little tweaking it posted 97 Hp and 114 Tq. From the numbers posted I beleive everthing I was told was done to my bike. Lets just say that all of my friends that I ride with always kindof laughed at me riding my ROADSTAR because I just ride at my own pace. I don't get in a big hurry to race from place to place. After that day on the dyno and having to show the print out to everyone else that wasn't there. No one has asked me to race them anymore. I love my Roadstar and never plan on letting it go.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #211052 Aussie John (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 615 Re:horsepower? 2 Years, 10 Months ago   Unfortunately there is never enough of them horses laying around   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
