Default New cam and apes


Cyclerama 570-2 with v&h pro pipe. Could have gained a little more by drilling out the baffle but decided against it. Very nice gains for drop in cam. Pick bike up in the morning to experience the new power. Shout out to Daren for the work. Very nice guy and very accommodating. Just had 16 inch wild 1 apes put on last week and they are a back saver for sure. Pics in the a.m. of apes for anyone looking to see what they look like.

Congrats! I Follow Darren on the tech forum, every tune the guy post is awesome. I spoke to him about cam recommendations for my build and went with his pick.
I have not heard any disappointment with the cams you have chosen. It is the "Hot" cam right now for the 103.
Love to see some pics and hear how you like the new cams and pipe
Congrats again

Looking at those numbers are making me think Big Bore for my 96”.

The 570-2 seems to be as good for the 103 as the 48H is to the 96.

The CR 575 do well in a 106 kit.

I was going to say, I bet your bike is a rocket! Nice set up! What compression are you at?

Not sure. S&S kit. Stock heads with .030 head gasket.
It runs pretty good.

That is a strong 103. Those 570's start early and have a broad torque curve. Sheffer Performance has built/tuned two builds for me and both of them were fantastic.

It's got to be at least 10.5/1 for those cams to perform. So I'm guessing you're at least that.

I knew the cam was a torque cam but man the first 4 gears really rip. Popped the clutch and was in the extra torque already and it never diminished as i was up to 70 mph that quickly. it will definitely put a smile on your face Rained on me about half the trip back so shifted as I normally would in 5th and 6th and wasn't really wanting to do 70 mph in the rain. Another positive I wasn't aware was going to happen is just how much smoother the shifts are. No throttle lag at all, as soon as throttle is twisted hang on. lol I'll get some seat time tomorrow and see what it can really do, Also,,,anyone thinking about doing apes....do it...My shoulders ached something awful with the heritage bars, The 16's are the ticket
