Depends on your RPM riding range. 255 cams are great in 2000-2500, good 2500-4000, and start to fall off pretty good after that. If you typically ride in the 3000 or higher range, there may be better choices out there. If you typically gun it to over 5000 RPM, there are definitely better choices.

However, if you ride around 2500, 255s are great for baggers...they provide a lot more torque. If you are looking to get a set of like new cams, I've got a couple of sets for sale in the Touring Parts section (or just PM me).

I like the woods cams they are expensive but worth it they sound real good and make alot of power,I was looking at the 255 but why buy a cam with stock duration they say the 255 makes alot of tourqe and alot of people are happy with them

Do a search on SE 255 cams. There are tons of treads that will help you out.
