Stage one is just the installation of a freer breathing air cleaner, such as the Screamin Eagle stage 1 air cleaner. Some dealers tell the customer they need to add exhaust also, this is just an up sell on their part. The air cleaner and the Harley supplied download are all a Stage 1 consist of.

The SE255 cams are pretty decent, they do bite pretty good on the bottom, which can be a lot of fun. IMO they just run out of steam too soon for my taste. When I was running them in the 2010 Triglide I had I was passing a couple cars and just a tick past 4,100 rpm it pretty much stopped pulling. From what others have been experiencing with the SE254 it sounds like it bites almost as early as the 255 except it doesn't run out of breath as soon.

What HP will the dyno usualy show the engine have. ????

My Honda Valkyrie Interstate has HP 105, 100 TQ out ot of the box. Which was in 1999. Redline at 6500.

saab9k, is that rear wheel HP/TQ or at the crank?? If it is Honda advertised HP/TQ, it will have about 15% lose to the rear wheel. Factory advertised HP/TQ is generally at the crank to make the numbers sound better. :xzqxz:

Thanks, when it is a trike might just have it checked.

assuming you get the stage 1 done at the dealer is it really worth what they charge for it or if your going to go for it should you just have stage 1 and 2 done at the same time?

If you plan on doing cams down the road then it isn't worth piece mealing the build, especially if your talking dyno time or tuning time for both the Stage 1 or 2.
