Well, I sold my M8, bought a 2014 Road King. Couldnt be happier. question is, anyone running an Andrews 48H cam? Looking at the numbers, I think Im going to go with that one.......... Thoughts?

 

Are you a revver? A lugger? style of riding? 2 up?

All factors. Thats a great low end cam to give you some punch off the bottom but it signs off kinda early if you rev a lot

 

Subscribed , I have a set of 48's sitting on my bench that I have been contemplating putting in bike . So far , the word around here , is what am I waiting for , get er done . I'm an average rider , not looking to win any races off the start , but like my power when I need to pass on the highway . I hear that's what these will do .

 

I put the Andrews 48's in my 05 Fatboy . The rest of the motor is pretty much stock except for the V&H exhaust and stage 1 filter kit and PC3 USB tuner from Fuel Moto. I could not have asked for a better choice in cam for what I wanted. I wanted a stump puller, I have a lot of torque all the way up to the redline. These cams sound awesome. I have been very happy with them since I put them in


Trust me they will not disappoint!

 

Yeah, Im not a revver...... I like the punch down low. I spoke with Fuel Moto, they suggested the Woods 555, great cam but I dont punch the bike. I like cruising and dont hang out much above 3000.

 

Thanks, I am really looking at the 48 or the 57. I read Fuel Moto's take on both cams and I think they liked the 48 better. I like the low RPM range of this cam.

 

great point, I guess Im a lugger, without actually lugging the motor. Never rev, i like hanging out down low in the RPM range. I do some two up, but not alot.

 

If above is true then you’ll benefit from a “torque” cam (and there a lot of decent ones out there) which will give you a lot more get up and go from idle to about 4-4.5K RPM. It’ll help riding 2-up and also passing in top gear.

HTH.

 

I have the 555s in my 96" RKC, and it's true that they like RPMs. I would bet they would respond better with the 7 extra cubes, but definitely more of a mid-range cam as the bottom end is about the same as Stage 1.

Fuel Moto has a ton of dyno graphs for the 103...should make picking a torque cam relatively easy.

PS...my Fuel Moto 107 Big Bore Upgrade is only 1 week away...my bike will arrive at FM today or tomorrow after a very long journey from the West Coast!

 

The 48's are a great cam. Ran them in my 96". Good bottom end that doesn't fall on it's face if you occasionally rev it out. It is as you stated a low end grunt type of cam. The woods 222 falls in that category as well as a few others. I think the other benefit with the 48's is they are easy to tune and not super fussy about exhaust.
