Default Hot start or vibration issues

Anybody having any of these issues with the andrews 21 or SE 203 cams? Have done cam research until I could puke, and am down to these two cams. Looking for some extremely low end torque on a TC88. I rarely get her up over 3000 rpm . HELP!

Go with the andrews 21 for low end torque.

I hope you at least get it over 3000 rpm when accelerating. If not, then don't complain about the bike not having any power because your babying it.

Well, maybe I do baby her a bit. Shift around 2800 and cruise around 2200. That,s why I need that low end torque. Plus, 2 up 98% of the time.

The problem with your stock TC88 is the low compression (8.7) which will make it hard to maintain your low-end without a compression increase. I think a nice combo would be the TW48, the Andrews conversion kit, and a 95" BB kit that'll increase your compression to around 9.5.
