    No way. Most of us know what would have to go into that motor to achieve that... If it had all that done, believe me...he'd be braggin' about how much he spent!

    Can't blame the guy for trying, though.

      There's only a few XS's I know of putting out those numbers, and I'm sure that is not one of them.

          Naw! All one has to do is take the originally stated 95BHP advertised for the bikes and add a few percentage points here and there. A couple of % increase for the Mac downpipes with even more with the incorrectly matching mufflers... surely they add more HP. Then Put on some Pods which surely will reap 5 % HP increase (do not forget the 5% increase from the pod filter element added on top). Add to that the lower bars which will decrease wind resistance as well as the removed and bondo'ed over tank emblems. One must not forget the correctly (wind tunnel tested) added dents in the tank, as they will not only add to gas mileage but definite seat in the pants horsepower .
          One must note the extra safety this bike provides with the seat tape installed so one can stay in the seat when severe thrashing is taking place with such a high horsepower unit.

              Doubtful.........looks like motor's never been apart. I'm sure those midnite sidecovers are good for 10% power increase.
