what particular 650 cam do you have in mind? A few of us are running the woods 650 - the high lift short duration on this cam is designed for torque rather than HP. You will most likely have to change your springs but everything else should be ok. The sound of your bike is determined more by your exhaust than it is the cam.

i believe stock cam is 525
the woods designer cam that i have is the 650 lift , W6HF duration is 248
woods springs are necessary and they are nice as hell. buy the kit and get titanium retainers.
i also ported the head and raised compression to 10.5.to 1
i was after the sound at idle and there is a little more radical sound than normal.
and while i was at it i powder coated and diamond cut it

You should also look at your rocker arms you may have standard "non-roller tip". If you do these are not made for that high of a lift cam.
At minimum with the 650 as noted you'll need:
1. Compatable springs and rocker arms
2. If have the heads off while changing springs you should deck jugs back to S&S standard spec (remove approx .040 from the top)
3. A high flow air filter
4. $$$$$ How fast do you want to go:roll:

Who did the work for you? How is it done,.....were your jugs diamond cut after the powder coating? Were your cylinders smooth, polished, before the powder coating process? What does that process cost? Thanks, lou
