TW-6-6 Cams
First off I would like to thank Jamie at Fuel Moto for providing me with my stage 1 upgrade this past spring and my stage 2 upgrade that was just installed. And a big thank you to Roeder Racing LLC for installing my stage 2 upgrade which included the updated hydraulic cam chain tensioners, lifters and adjustable push rods and a tune. My cam chain tensioners had approx 500 miles left on them and the bike has just under 48,000 miles. I gained 10hp and 10 ft/lbs of torque. For those of you contemplating doing these cams in my opinion this is a great upgrade. I am attaching. The dyno chart.

I read and see all kinds of stuff on changing your cam.
But what does it really give you??
I run on the highway at about 3000 rpm. That 95% of my driving.
So for 5% of your driving your changing you cam?
Even nominal running around town I'm lucky to hit 4000 rpm maybe 4200
Doesn't look like a cam really does make much difference until your over 4000. So yah it will help passing. But is it worth the $$$ and the extra wear and tear on the engine to get more power for passing?
What am I missing here?

I used the S&S 510G's and mine starts around 2400rpm to around 4400 which is great for the old lady and i as we're both bigger people. We ride 2 lane rural mostly and it's good to have the extra boost when passing, less use of 4th gear.
