I'm in my 40's. I've been hotrodding anything with an engine since I was a kid.

I've installed cams in lots of stuff, and ported the 2 strokes..including several cars.

Now I know this bike isn't about speed, so I don't need to hear 'buy a different bike'.. but a little more juice couldn't hurt.

So with that being said, I have purchased a set of 2014 cams to send out to a cam manufacturer I've spoken with who will measure them for specs and get back to me with thoughts.

I'm not looking to go crazy. But with modern epa motors, the cams are generally very mild and easy to get gains without having to resort to extremes.

Just trying to get an idea if anyone else would want them as well.
No, I'm not interested in making such a mod, but I am interested in knowing how you get on.
^^ What my mate from a different tectonic plate said. Keep us posted on the adventure and share any cammed-up sounds with us, too, please.
I would like to have cams that would fix the deliberate miss matched timing.Biker
Don't need any more power though.Thumbs Up

Depending on the results, and the price, I could be tempted...

I've done almost everything else, why not!
Sure, count me in Wink
With the right cams, open exhaust, pod type air filters, and a Power Comander I think you could really open this bike up. Just sayin...
I might be interested.

I wonder if the exhaust cam is identical to the intake cam except for the engineered tweak for the resonance, with an eye to just using an intake cam on the exhaust side? They look identical in the exploded parts diagrams. Interested in your findings.

I could be interested. I'm sure this would be one of the big "corks" in these engines, as you can tell by riding it, they're quite conservative.

How did you get just cams from a 2014, or did you have to buy an entire engine?
