Do 255 cams come in the 2015 103" air cooled motors?

Very close but I forgot the specs.

Take a look at the 255 specs and compare them to the 2014s in the link

The new cams are very similar to the 255's. The specs are very close if not the same, but the lift is not quite as much. Like "o.o20" difference or so.

I believe that its only the High Output 103 Touring models for 2014 & up have the new cam. The rest of the 103 bikes have the same old cam. Thats what my dealership says...

I hear the new stock cams are breaking over 110tq on stage 1 bikes. LOL Someone better tell Bobby Wood and every other aftermarket cam designer that they're losing cheddar from these stage 1 fantasy camp bike owners.

You should tell them, you should know them personally from you signature you have all the answers and all the numbers except $. To get a 14 should save you some cheddar.
