We'll got the 222's in tonight. Adjusted push rod to .130 Let it idle to about 180deg head temp valve train sounds good I can live with that. The bike has 20/50 Dino oil in it. Don't know what it will sound like when the oil temps come up to cold and wet to ride. Jamie sent me a map for it should be pretty close. I am sure you can make more power with different cams but I want power from 2000 to 4000 don't really care what it does after that. Riding to Sturgis and to the springfield mile I try to stay anywhere from 70 to 75 not in a hurry to get anywhere. All I here about these cams is they pull really well in that area so I wanted to try them. Loved the way the bike ran with the 2014 cams in it. With the 14 cams and everything else I done in the cam chest it was dead quite any RPM and any temp. If the 222's make to much noise it want be nothing for me to take them out because it would have to gain 100 more HP and 100 more TQ for me to listen to excessive valve train noise. In fact I liked the 14 cams so much for the way it ran and how quite it was I bought 2 sets and it want hurt my feeling to put them back in.

When you go to figuring it cost about one thousand dollars per horsepower. That is not a bad price you paid for the Hp.
Know there are a lot of people on here that like the Vance and Hines exhause.
I have never been a freind of them. We took the Vance and Hines off of a 2010 SE SG.
And put the Stainless Steel jackpot header pipes on Fuelmoto has and put the 4 1/2 " tuned mufflers on for the 110cu motor and it made better Hp.
Also took Thunderheader mufflers off a 96 cu motor and put some jackpot exhuast on and it make better Hp.
The HF breather you have and the exhause you have may be holding some power back.
And with the 6hp you are saying you made.
If you raise the compression and do headwork, it will complement that 6 hp even better.
But who better to explain this to you then Fuelmoto.
I'm very hard at explaining this stuff even when its explained to me.
