Default cams cams cams?

I have an 08 lowrider with hd's hi flow air,vance and hines shortshot staggers and pc III.I just ordered S&S 510g cams for it but Im blown away by all the variance in opinions.Seems to me most people are putting them in heavier bikes with varying results.Mine is only around 650 lbs.I dont care about going 100 mph plus(got a cdl to protect) im just wanting good snap in the bike.Am I making a good choice? anyone have a similar setup?

Very good mid-rev-range cams. Should do you nicely. I thought they were for up to 2005 models only though?

Strong cams... look , just about anything you put in there is gonna be a sure improvement over stock, even 255's or 204's or Andrews 26H... hell if it woke up my heavy bitch it will make yours a rocket...I like the usable power up to about 4000 rpms...after that to me it's waste...i rarely rev it up that high to get where i need to. Biggest issue you will have will be keeping tires looking new...LOL
