I ran the 255s in my bike for the last 10k miles, I liked them.. lots of torque and a big improvement over stock.
The 57s that I have now makes my bike run like a raped ape, not as torquey but a lot faster.

The 57s wake up over 2500rpm but they still perform real well from a stop.
I'm sure there are other cams that may be quicker from a stop but the 57s deliver through out the rpm range, much more so at higher speeds.

I'll be keeping them for awhile.

I'm surprised that no one has as of yet recommended the 254E to you. That's the cam you are looking for.
