I have read most ot the treads about different Cams, but they don't fall into my rideing style. 07 Nite train. V&H B.R. 2-1, S.E. heavy breather and sert with crappy tune. I ride 1 up mainly backroads and some twisties, Interstate at last resort, I get a little sporty at times in the turns but that is about it. Ride between 1800-3000 rpm have shiftlite set for 3000. most of what
i read is higher rpm 3500-5500. Don't want big numbers just more low-mid grunt and better throttle responce. Was looking at SE 204s but don't know. Also the last time I put a cam in it was a sifton on a Shovel, What do you think install would cost, also can I keep stock lifters and pushrods.
