RE: cam choice for 07' bagger
First off, welcome to the forum. You should go to the new members area and introduce yourself. Your question, has anyone done a cam in a 96" 07 bike, well, look at my signature information
Before anyone can answer what cam is good for your application, you have to ask yourself, what is it you are looking for? More low end power, quicker accelration, more top end speed? Do you ride mostly alone or two up? You mostly ride on the flat or in the mountains. Cams alone or do you want to do other mods, or maybe build in steps. A cam you put in today will not necessarily work with future modifications, although there are those that will.
Lots of questions, but answer those and ask again and I will bet you will get a lot of answers!

I was looking for the same improvements as you.
I got them with the Head Quarters cams.
I have a thread with some pictures at https://www.hdforums.com/m_2825599/tm.htm

Depending what you want to do in the future, a couple of good all around choices would be the HQ 500 or the Woods TW6 or 6H. They will work well with stock compression, and will also handle future modificationsincluding bigger bores and higher compression ratios. I have run Woods cams in the past and they really build torque, as does the HQ. I am now a HQ fan and am running the 575 and so far, it is great!

I just finished my cam install. 07 Roadglide. SE 255 cams and the Cobra module. Pulls solid thru the gears and is a nice combo for the stock 96.

If I didn't have it I would go with the TM with auto tune.
Put a Arlen Ness Big sucker II on the bike too.
