jungle,
but
all
the

parts

it
act
like
a
tabby
at
grandma's
house.

more
horsepower

more

Still
skeptical
about
Thunderbird's
Stage
1
Performance
Kit
doing
such
wonders
for
your
bike?
It's
totally
understandable,
so
I've
included
a
Dyno
comparison
report
for
your
reference.

The
bike
under
review
is
a
2007
Touring
bike.
When
tested
stock
on
the
Dyno,
the
bike
resulted
in
63
horsepower
and
79
torque...not
bad,
but
could
be
better.
Once
the
Thunderbird
Stage
1
Performance
Kit
was
installed,
the
new
numbers
were
impressive.
The
horsepower
alone
shot
up
to
75,
and
the
torque
hit
87!
***Actual
results
may
vary
slightly
from

to
