Default Winter tear down-assembly started

Got to do some wrenching on the bike today. Going to get the heads ported, 95" and gear drive cams (still trying to decide on cams). I'm also going to install an auto tensioner on the primary while it is tore down.

Thanks, but it's my brothers. Mine aren't that nice (stuck with two townhouses for sale) Once I get settled into one real house, mine will be that nice.

Trying to choose between these cams
