Mid-range, top end pull.

I agree the 555/777 would probably be best with a higher CR, and I always have an open mind, but I just can't get over the fact the Fuel Moto literally says it's a low-end and mid range cam. Obviously personal experience is different. I know I won't get a tire-scorcher in there with a stock CR and stock headwork, so my options are limited. But like you and many others have said, the 48 looks good. Thank you. I think I'll grab a couple of those.

Gonna need alot more than just a set of bolt in cams for what it seems you're wanting. Get the check book out.... you're gonna need quality heads, a 103 SE or 106 with S&S big bore, bigger cams and a good tune.... Bolt in cams for your application won't produce the power it sounds like you want, AT ALL

I've got tw6-6 cams in my bike. The heads were shaved for compression and 106 ci.
Bike makes 107hp/115tq. Hits 100tq at 2200/2300rpm(I forget) and the hp doesn't drop off until I hit the rev limit.
Apparently they are similar to woods 555s. As far as power these things really move my dyna.

Djl: I've done chains on other bikes, never a belt on a Harley, however.
Matt816: I know this full and well, buddy. The check book will only let me do cams and intake currently. I'm no stranger to building motors, but I have no shame in admitting I need schooling on my Harley. I'm not expecting a pro streeter from mild street cams.
Shredding rubber: I'd love to hit the 100/100 mark! And then surpass it.
Bigdog1949: I hear compression releases are a must-have if you bump up the CR. HD has a tool to install your own. Doesn't look too difficult.

Bob Street, you don't want to change the belt on a Harley.

Matt: Thanks, that pull provides a good basis to look at. However I'm planning on a good 2-1 exhaust because of its scavenging properties.
Djl: Haha I'm sure I don't. It was more of a figure of speech than anything. From what I gather, however, these drivetrains can handle significant power increases with minimal modifications.
