As poorly conveyed as the question is, I think he/she is asking a valid question. I would answer if I knew, but I don't. I liked how that bike sounded as well. I am not going to get cams for sound purposes. I think sometimes forum members suspect sinister plots when someone new asks a question. Good luck in your search for sound "Nirvana"

what is a troll? how am i being a troll? what is moronic about asking if a cam will work in my bike and not wanting the only response to be.. choose this cam because it'll make more power
i simply wish to convey that power is not my concern ie i could give a crap about it
we are now at 19 posts and not one person has even attempted to answer my question
i like the way these cams sound and would like to put them in my bike if that makes me a moron.. very well

Anything can be made to work. The 211's are better in a 103 with higher compression.
Now the confusing part
From your original post:
...so were these vids of FI 96 motors like yours not working?

.. on youtube i have seen vids of fuel injected 96 motors like my bike has with a 211 cam in them.. but i cant find anything that says they will work in my bike..

You have to run at least 10.1 compression to have the 211 cams work all the way through the power band. The Screamin Eagle book tells you they work best with added compression. 203 cams do work great with stock compression (low to mid range). 211 cams should pull to 6200 with no problems.

thanks i just wanted to verify with someone other then youtube before spending the money on the cams.. i'm planning on rinehart true duals and a stage one air cleaner.. i figured if i put new cams in that would give me a good excuse to dyno tune it rather then just a reflash.. power is nice but i bought a harley for the sound not the speed.. guess i'm the weird one cause i would totally put cams in just to get the potato potato sound

Because he wants his bike to sound more like a Harley and is willing to spend some money to make it happen. I think his question was will the cams work in his bike.

fortunately i have a work vehicle so i don't have to worry too much about pissing off the neighbors.. just looking for a great sounding cam that wont hurt my engine.. in a year or two i could see myself doing a 103 or 110 kit on it so higher compression shouldn't be a long term problem.. i just don't want this thing to idle like a honda.. i'll give these things a try with rinehart tds and a dyno tune and let you know what happens..
still curious to know why i cant find a single distributor that says you can run them in a 96

Ah, that good ole Devo hit... "Crack that Wick"
...crack that wick,
...give the past the slip,
...step on a crack,
...break your momma's back,
...wick it, wick it good...
Ah yes, those good old days of wicking the throttle past midnight
