Default 1999 Night Train Question

Looking at a 99 Night Train with 52k miles. My question is what cam, and lifters should I use to do a refresh in them? I believe the bike is basically stock except exhaust.

or would you ride it until you had to do something?

It really depends upon what you're after regarding performance. At a bare minimum replace the lifters and inner cam bearing. Use a name brand lifter and the Torrington/Koyo bearing. I don't have part numbers but there are other more knowledgeable fellows here that do.

I’ve got a 1997 Bad Boy and I swapped out the cam for an EV27 and a Torrington bearing. No issues. Keep it simple….. And thats not an expensive mod.

That’s a unicorn bike btw. A 1st year NT with an Evo engine. If you don’t get, please share the details.
