So, another vote for the Triple Deuces?

For me, yes. If you aren't going to change gearing or do any further engine work. Even then the 222 still isn't a bad choice

As has been stated it really comes down to how you ride...everyone is a little different. How often to you find yourself above 3,000 RPM and how long are you there? Do you find yourself in situations where you're winding it out to pass/get up to speed or do you stay down low. Best to be honest with yourself.

Both the 222 and 777 will give you more you have now with the stock cam, but where you'll feel it the most depends on your riding style and help you choose.

I'd caution you on the 777 cam. I just had it installed and I rev high all the time, BUT not drivable under 3k RPM at all so constantly downshifting. If I had to do it over again, I'd probably choose the wood 222 or 555 cams if I still decided to go with wood. There are a few other really good cams on Fuel Moto website that I think you'd also be very happy with. Good luck.

Thanks for your input. A light switch powerband is what I definitely want to avoid.

Don't count out the Andrews 48 either. It's a proven solid cam for low end grunt on the 103.

The Woods TW 5-6 it's an overlooked Cam that has great low end and can still out climb the 222..TDC LIFT is a little higher improving cylinder fill...

I haven't found any dyno sheets on those cams, in a 103" TC. Do you have access to one?

I will have mine done In a couple weeks..

The following the charts were downloads from Knight Prowler (Bob Woods) website..2 with motor work one stock..


A lot depends on the exhaust you will use..

S&S 570s are a great trike cam. Or Tman 580s. If the 570s interest you, I happen to have a set with real low miles I had in my 103 in like new condition I'd let you have. Just sitting here anyway. Rather they went to good use.
Throw me a little for shipping and handling and they're yours.
If you look at that FM cam shootout, most all are going to be within a pony or 3 in a stock 103. The 570s being one of the better ones.(99/110) And you can't beat the price. Nice quiet cam and the exhaust duration will help with cooling. Especially in a trike.
