couple things...find your local Indy guy you will pay 1/3 the price and get 5 times the service...any changes will void your motor warranty.....you will need to think about a tuner as well.....i went with S an S 585 gear drives and love them...very reliable vs the chain....do some research......i went from the 204's to the 585 s and s...never lost any fuel mileage and the power is crazy fun........hope this helps a little

Prolly 6-7 labor hours at a dealership Sasha!! 3-4 hours at an Indy shop,
. Maybe look at some of the other drop in Cam options from Andrews and or Woods?
I have no warranty so I dunno....I would think if the dealer installed a drop in cam like the 204 on an otherwise unmolestered motor??
211's,Milled and ported heads, Flattops, 10:1 Comp, Rinhart Pipe, stock throttle body.

EDit: Googled the 585's....Didnt look at the specs but they do claim it to a drop in cam. Seems mighty tall for a bike with stock compression and no headwork tho??

585's in a stock motor probably would work real good for Sasha....Whats the specs on that cam? Is that one of those new ones they just made?

Sash's bike is a 2009. NO NEED to go to a gear drive- stay with a chain drive cam. The new style hydraulic tensioners are WAY better than the old spring style. No need to spend the extra $400 to buy gears.
