I'm considering the same, how do you reckon it would fair against a 79" Hayabusa?

Huh? a busa? I dont think a sport bike and a touring model is much of a race unless you have a supercharger on your street glide like my buddy!

I put the 555's in my 09. I'm very happy but I am getting some ticking when cold. Also some backfiring/spitting when I roll the throttle occasionally. Could be the cold weather or the stabil in the tank. I'll wait for spring before I do any adjustments to the push rods or PCV.

Did you replace the pushrods also or just the cams

Racing a Busa....Maybe if hook up a chain between the two bikes face in opposite directions and see who can get to a 1/4 mile first.....

I'd put my ZX10R up against that Busa from 0-140

Raced a few of them and have taken them down until well over 100MPH.. Then the big Busa starts to catch up and overtake the ZX...

My ZX10 only has a Akrapovic Full Carbon Titanium exhaust, a power commander, one gear down in the front and a really good dyno tune... 177 RWHP in a 400 lb bike is a lot of fun

As for the 777 cams, heard nothing but good things about them.. I run the TW408-44's in my 107 and love 'em.
