i know this has been asked a thousand times, but bear with me.

bike is a 2004 88" fatboy. big sucker intake. vance and hines big shots with baffle. and power commander III. stock besides that and dont plan any other motor upgrades.

im 2 knuckles deep in changing out my cam tensioners to cyco pads. Measured my runout and got .0045" so no gear drive for me.

figured since im in here, i should change my cams for a bigger smile.

im 175 pounds and ride a little bit of everything, single, two-up, city and interstate. but i really never get too high in the rpms.

Wondering what cam would be the best change for low-mid rpms on this mid-weight bike.

leaning towards andrews tw-21 or the the tw-26.

anyone have any recomendations and experience?

 

I really like my SE204s they sound awesome too. What ever you do replace those inner cam bearings with the full Torrington’s 04 would be B148.

 

You won't regret either choice....

I have an '03 Heritage with a big bore 95ci kit. I put 26s in that bike and it runs really well..... It had SE203 cams in it, and runs better with the 26s...

I have a new to me, '01 Springer and need to address the cam tensioners. I'll be putting 21s in that bike. It's a stock 88ci.

From what I've read, the 21s will have a little lower rpm grunt than the 26s, and the 26s benefit from a little higher compression than the 21s..... Thus my decision to go 26s in the big bore and 21s in the stock 88....

Either way, get a good tune and it will much better than stock.....

 

Andrews 21 or the S&S version of it

 

thanks for the advice. I went with the 21.
gets delivered today. but its currently -20 degrees F outside. So i got a long waiting game
