Default SE 110 B engine in 2016 FLSTFBS-Fat Boy® S

I was wondering if anybody had any input on what cams are in this engine, they advertise "You get big power on the low end" but that's all.

Actually those cams are not the SE255. IIRC, they are the new HO103 Rushmore cams. Very similar profile to the SE255 but not the same; check the attachment for the differences.

He was asking about the new 2016 FatBoy model S. That has 110 engine NOT HO103 and the cams are 255.

No worries; when I am wrong, I am wrong. Before this error, I thought I was wrong once on another issue but I was wrong.

I am sure you know that my remark was "tongue in cheek"; don't let this out but I have been wrong at least twice.

BTW, Mike Lozano has taken off to Doha, Qatar to open up a racing motor shop. Don't know the details of whether this is a permanent move or not but no more dyno days until he returns to San Antonio. I am planning a 124" build for my old FLHT and now am going to have to depend on someone else for machine and head work.
