Default '17 cvo sg

Getting ready to go with S&S 465G Cam chest kit , Fullsac MX Touring head pipe , Thundermax tuner and Vance and Hines 4.5 HighOutput slip on's(already had those installed) i see Moonshine HD in a lot of their YouTube tests use the Kromewerks Slip on's , stock 114ci other than the V&H slip on's. Anyone have an opinion on the direction I've chose to go? Thanks so much!

I have the Khrome Werks 2-2 performance system with 4.5 mufflers and I love them. They also make 3 different inserts that help low end tremendously. I just had FM install their 128 kit on my bike and it is awesome. I'm running a s+s 475 cam and I have the louvered insert in my kw mufflers.

As as I mentioned here, I took my Power Cores and Fuel Moto header off my 17' CVO-SG and replaced it with the full H-D system. Yep, I lost a tiny bit of power, but the H-D system sounds good, does not make my ears ring, and I can enjoy the sound system. I run the Woods WM8-222 cam. Love the power delivery.

Why are you going to bother using gear drive cams in an M8? The chain tensioner (1, only one cam ) in the M8s, are not an issue like the TCs

I would guess it's because the stock cam plate is a cast piece of crap.

Haven't heard of any issues with the stock cam plate, why do you say it's a piece of crap?
