They posted a dyno chart for it. 5.3HP increase (7.7%).

I know you can't really feel 5HP on a car, but how is it on a motorcycle? I'm still hoping to hear a clip of the exhaust because the sound really the main factor for me...not too interested in performance gains.

On a bike this size you can feel 5hp, won't be like you threw a nitrous switch but you can tell. I'm actually liking stealth mode so no loud pipes on this bike. My last bike was a Honda VTX1300 cruiser that I put Cobra low-boy staggered pipes on and unbaffled it, LOUD when I cracked it open, could set off car alarms which was kinda fun. But even though this bike isn't meant as a speed demon it has a sportbike look which to law enforcement if it has loud pipes makes it more conspicous and more of a target to get pulled over so I'll stay stealth as I really don't want to give the state of RI, or CT, MA or any other state more of my hard earned money than I have to

I can attest to these front signals.

This was the best price I found, @ $30 with shipping. They fit perfectly and look great. I'll have a picture up soon. They do come in other colors too, but the chrome looked best on the white bike.

As for the fender eliminator, I used a generic one and "massaged" it. Looks good and was cheap (again, pics soon), but took more planning and work than a simple bolt-on replacement.

Thanks! I just ordered them. I couldn't stand the look of my turn signals. I think the chrome should look good with the black.

For the Raven I'd go chrome or smoke. Either way it will look nice. All depends on if you want flash or stealth.

Hope you like 'em, they are easy to install.

As promised, here are pics of the lights and FE.

The FE was one I picked up at CycleGear. The white one was on sale for $8, so it made sense. The lights were @ $25, but they have a neat feature of amber sides, so they are visible even to those next to me. Also the screws for the plate have LEDs so they illuminate the plate. Those were $20.

Where did you get the FE from? Did I miss the link? Looks awesome!
