i agree with cam upgrade
I stopped at shop [ Drago ] last November 2019 after getting cut off a few times on the way home from a Patriot guard ride and asked about making my bike louder. I already had the full sac insert in muffler but needed a higher volume
We discussed the issue he said drill the cats and add a cam [he makes his own cams] and use a tuner and some s@s parts to fix up weak points on 2017 motor. Guy does motor work all over the country so i trusted his gut.
I am knocked out by the positive difference in sound but especially power [30% increase] .I have the same bike as you and very happy .
