Steve Cole and I are doing a cam test in March. The WM8-22x, RS468, and CR460 are my cams. When the tests are complete I will have at least two cams that I will not need. If one of the TTS cams turns out to be the cam I like best then I will have three cams I don’t need. I’m not going to give them away, but they will be discounted and all will be almost new.
I really believe all these cams are comparable. One thing I am going to do is ride the bike with each cam so I can judge the rideability of each cam. An impressive WOT dyno graph doesn’t always mean good performance at partial throttle. It will be just my opinion, but I will give it.

Now your talking. Thats what I have been looking for is somebody who by the seat of there pants can compare these cams. To me the paper graph is just a starting point. Im looking for the real deal. If I had a cam removal tool I would do it myself. But I would be waiting for awhile. Its still winter here in Idaho.

So if you're saying you may have some cams for sale I might be very interested in one. Right now I'm leaning towards the zipper cam.

If you're going to do a ride test on each one, you should do it blind to get unbiased observations of the rideability.

Yeah, thatll be kinda hard to do since Ill be the one installing the cams. I promise to give my honest opinion, but again, it will just be my opinion. I dont have a dog in the fight so I think I can be unbiased!
