Default SG Cams Upgrade

Any thoughts on 08 Streetglide cams? I would like to get rid of my stock cams and the chain tensioners, upgrading to direct drive. I’ve already put on a set of Rinehart slip-ons, SE air cleaner & PowerCommander III. Thanks

The jury's still out on the new chain tensioner system and most are sticking with the new tensioners as opposed to going direct drive. I kept the chains and dropped in a set of bolt in Zippers 575 redshift cams. There are a few others that are good bolt ins like HQ500's or Woods TW6's. I would consider keeping the chain setup on the 08's until it is proven otherwise that they won't last.
