Default Automatic Compression Releases

Does anyone have any insight on installing and/or the cost of having ACRs installed? My head's have already been set up for them.

If you buy the acr socket they are easy to install as long as your bike is wired for them. If not you will need to buy the wiring kit and install that. The. Turn them on in the ecm. Pretty easy altogether. Depends on the year if the bike though

Default Acr

This will save you the hassle of going thru the ECM bullshit, There is also a manual option, but you have to remember to reset them every time you start bike. also pay attention to thread size, there are 3 available 12,14, 18 mm

How about easy start cams from S & S? Would that be a better route to go then compression releases? If so which ones should I get? I have an 08 night train with the 103ci kit.
