Default What cam

Hi all am looking at putting a new cam in my 2020 fxlrs 114, looking at ss 465, other cams like Woods and Redshift are not readily available in the UK,I do mostly 2 up riding,never above 4000 revs,so looking for a torque cam that pulls straight off the line,and will pull through the mid range, problems seam to arrive when I say I have a V&H 2 into 1 upsweep exhaust, seeing as it's a competition exhaust I do not see the problem,any ideas would be appreciated Regards MJ

Contact Fuel Moto here on the site and see what cam he recommends with your set-up and desired result. But I see no reason why the S&S would disappoint. I have a T-Man 216 in my 20 FXLRS and it is great! So maybe look at that one as well.

Might be worth reading the cam testing threads on this site. A lot of info, and some feedback as well. TTS 100 is a good cam for your riding style, buT you need their tuner and somebody who really knows how to use it. Fuel Moto can get most other brands as well as maps for DJ tuners. Do some research/reading for combo’s. TTI inserts from DK Customs if you need to reduce the exhaust flow for better torque.

Thank You all very much for your advice,I contacted V&H who told me my 2 into 1 upsweep exhaust does a very good job of scavenging and pulling in air,so I am happy with that, replace lifters is a good idea,not sure about the cuffs,read many threads on it,that gives good reason for being tough plastic,and a very knowledgeable member on here gives a good reason for keeping them, lifters fail,and the cuffs get the blame, parts are a lot more expensive in the UK,than the US,cam bearing US $15 ,UK Ł45 , everything is the same,so gotta get it right first time.Regards All

Spivitz, how are you liking the 30-30 cam? is your clutch stock? i am wondering if the stock clutch will hold the extra power. I am ordering this week for my 2020 low rider s, just waiting to see if there is going to be a black friday sale.

I got a Red Shift 468 sent to the UK as part of a Zippers package with S&S Pushrods, Lifters, Bearings and Gaskets, through e-bay from American Classic Motors.


As others have said do your research first and look as to which cam suites your needs best, there's a lot of information on the Fuel Moto site.

A possible UK site to check out is Fast Lane Headworks
