Default Best Mild-Mannered Cam for 2011 103" Street Glide?
What would be the best mild-mannered, street-able cam for my 2011 103" Street Glide?

In addition to the cam, I'll be doing a HD Stage I intake & Rinehart 4" slip-ons.

I do about 80% solo riding.

I'm looking for a cam that's just a notch above stock. Something that's quiet and idles nicely.

What cam would Harley have used on stock bikes, if they were allowed by the EPA?

Thanks

I'm going to do the Woods 555's in my RKC 103.
Good low end power that comes on fairly early.

Based on what you stated, SE255. Had that on my Fat Bob with the Stage II upgrade. Worked great for me.

From all the reports I've seen the Woods 555s are really showing great #s, some like the SE255s but it is used in the SE 110, which means that they are EPA cams, my vote would be for the 555s.

IMO..............SE255 are worthless......Put them in my limited and they fall off way to quick.(I knew this but got them for free so I thought WTF..)...They are coming out real soon......I am going with the woods TW-5-6


A notch above stock insnt worth spending the money.......do your home work and do it right

What do you recommend? Keep in mind I'll be using stock heads, valve springs, etc.
Thanks
