Got another cam choise thread. Been doing lots of reading but was hoping to get some more feedback.
Got 2001 FLHR. Do about 5k a year touring, 5k to work and few thousand bumming around. So nothing radical. would like to keep fair gas mileage.
Thinking 95", bore out existing cylinders. S&S gear drive and....
Is there a cam that will work ok with 88 & 95? I am hoping to both next month when I get my bonus. But don't know how much it will be. I want to open up and inspect cams tensioners, so would like to do the cams now.
Though I think there is a good chance will do it all next month.
My riding style is when touring is around 85, two up. Work ride is interstate 60-80. So I do alot of high?mid range riding. Looking for response in that range.
Here lots of peole talk about 37g.
Did read one post that with 37 will be shifting alot on hills. Whats the magic bullet.
Don't have tach, but have never hit limiter. Wind the first 3 gears out a little.
So far have SE AC, stock carb and V&H classics. Maybe someday go to 2-1, but won't be for awhile. When welded crack fails.
Got primmary off right now. considering gearing chagne, but money isn't there.
I also have to run ethanol alot, and getting worse. Plus do couple thousand miles a year out west with low octane.
Any help with ramblings would be appreciated.
Thanks
