Default Installed TTS-100 cams

Just installed the TTS-100 cams in my '12 Ultra. Wow what a difference! Tons of torque down low. I need to get the new wore off, so I can start driving it like an old man again.

Good choice, probably over 100ft lbs at low to mid 2000s and pulls to redline. Enjoy!

I have heard great things about that cam, that it pulls a lot better than a 255 from 4K up

I'm sold on them, I do have a TTS tuner, they have a tune for these cams which is nice. Sound is better than stock and really performs well. I can't wait for a group ride and show them off a little.

After my first fill up, gas mileage was very impressive. I averaged 41mpg. This was while riding very aggressive.
