103 Engine upgrade and keep my true duals
Hey guys, Im looking to get a little more out of my 13 stock 103. After doing a little reading and talking to some people i think whatever I buy it will be from FM and I have yet to give them a call to talk yet. I thought I'd see what recommendations or experiences you guys may have relating to my situation. I currently have VH true duals and would like to keep them. Im not trying to build a race bike but I'd like a little more out of her. I'm not a little guy and also ride 2-up at least 50% of the time. Honestly don't see myself ever doing over 100 mph and even that would be pretty rare and short lived BUT if and when i do, i'd like to be able to get there pretty quickly. Anyone have any advice for turning the 103 into a 110 and what cams would work well for what Im wanting? Id say 80 % of my riding is on 2 lane twisty highways doing between 40 and 60 mph with the occasional interstate stretch at 75 mph.

I just put a set of CR575 cams in mine. I finished it up today. I still need to finish tuning and go over a retighten everything after a couple of heat cycles.
It seems to pull pretty hard so far and still usable at low RPM. I did keep it 103 for now.
EDIT TO ADD: I too have a true dual exhaust, though mine are Rinehart. When I spoke to FM about them the guy pretty much said I was an idiot and not their type of customer. He did make some recommendations, but said I really needed to change my exhaust before anything.
I did still buy from them. The ordering (online) went smooth and arrived very timely.
