I want your opinions!
Whats up fellas? Info about about my ride, I have a 09 Night Train, with an otherwise stock, except for v&h big radius pipes, hypercharger, and a map download from HD. Im looking for a good cam choice from you experienced guys. I love torque and have never had my 96 close to the rev limiter, a lil more horsepower would be sweet for the 96 right now as well, but tq is what I enjoy. I do plan to go for more cubic inches but later on when my pocket permits. So what do you guys recommend? I dont do any two up riding either. Thank you guys in advance. This has been a topic I searched for, but never found any opinions based on my riding style..

I like my SE255's. It's a great cam for low end torque, and I know a handful of guys that put that into a 96" and went to the HD103 download and the bikes run great, although I will agree that a tuner is the best way to go and if you add some inches later, it will save you in the long run. I think Woods has a similar cam that should be just as good or better, but I'm sure a few other can chime in about that one. It's really a matter of opinion, just do your homework...
I have been looking at the woods triple nickel, I believe it is the TW-555. I will prob upgrade to the 103 or 110 in the future, but it isn't gonna happen soon. I have heard good things about that cam I mentioned.. My plans are good tourqey cams right now, I have never seen the rev limiter as I said before, nor do I think I'll intend to do so. I mean even with high speeds on the freeway I have only hit 90 mph a few times.. I really want torque and a lopey lopey idle.. On the debate of the tuner, thats a great point, I am looking for a tuner that offers customization of all factors, and have great expandibility.. I appreciate all of you and your comments, believe me it has really learned me a thing or two and I appreciate all criticism.. I know it may seem like these posts are sometimes a pain as I can imagine you've heard it before, but I'm fairly new to HD and switching from metric cruisers and sportbikes. So far I love my bike, I see now why you all love Harleys..
