Default Bolt In Cam

For a cvo 110, bagger. Won't be any other changes except pipes and tune.

Best cam be a woods 222.. U should have screaming Eagle 255s stock in the cvo.. People seem to trash the 255s saying there garbage but from what I many times is the 255s make some killer torque down low idle to 3700 rpms.. I guess it's all how u ride if ur at 6000 rpms all the time the 255s would be horrible but if u ride around from idle to 3500 rpms alot the 255s would be good

Sounds like ur not aggressive I would say the 255 cam would be best to stay with. The woods 222 does make better midrange and peak hp but if ur just cruising 2up in a heavy bagger I would bank ur in the not leaving the 2000-3500 range and that's where the 255 is good. But if not the woods 222 would be want u want or the andrews 48 ur looking for low end torque on that heavy bike

each of the cams mentioned have their own characteristics and the most notable is the heat of the 255 cam because it's an EPA cam. With that said however, it's still a great bagger grunt cam that can be tuned properly to get the heat out.

The 222 is a great grunt cam as well and will carry further out to the right (HP). If you're not a loyal HD follower, my choice would be the 222

Problem with 110s is the low 9.3 compression to keep ccp down with 255 cams. Putting decent cams in without raising compression will drop ccp and ya may see no/little gain, especially down low where ya will most likely lose. Putting in 110/113 10.5 pistons open up the cam choices and potential power gain greatly.
