I said stock for stock. Not what you can get out of them. Besides, one of our guys just posted a 110hp R6 with a PCIII, a slip-on, modified header, etc... I'm not completely sure what you can change in Daytona Sport Bike but I doubt it would be enough to gain 35 fucking horses! Man that's 30% over stock! That would put my bike in the 200 hp category! BTW you get even less modifications allowed in the Superstock class which is why you haven't heard shit from Buell in that class

140 is reasonable on a modified 600. Look at the WSBK bikes. They are getting 215 out of a those 1000 I-4's.

look what it's doing in World SBK... Imagine the 1125 out there racing against Spies on his R1. Laugh...

I just want us to win fair and square! What good is it really for an "American" bike, who's engine and almost all of it's major chassis components are made in other countries, to win a championship with a 500+cc advantage over the competition? Exactly how proud of that are you going to be?

Yea but I'm not sure what all they can modify in THIS class. I guess if this was the 600 SUPERBIKE class, I could see 140hp...

Believe it or not, I would love to see a truly American bike kick some ass in ANY race series. I don't see it happening unless Victory does something incredible in the next few years...

Because I'm sure every part on the Victory is made in the USA too, right.
