atrain68.. this is exactly the type of write-up that makes it an easy decision for peeps like me to tackle this job myself. I'm good with wrenches and can certainly follow instructions.

the local dealer wants 7 hours @ 70.00/hr for the cam installation and then another 4 hours @ 80.00 on the dyno

this is just labor, no parts...

Thanks everyone. For the non-mechanic that I am, this was a great project. Feel free to PM me with any questions. If I do a big bore project this winter I will take pictures or make a video.

Kick azz write up, saved in favorites for future use. Bike is still new, gonna put some serious miles on her first before deciding. Thanks atrain for all the usefull info. When I see a write up like this, in that much detail, I cant see paying the stealer to do it when I can save the bucks. Write up like this and the manual, there is nothing I cant do to my bike. Stay safe and keep the shiney side up.
