Anyone know, in general, if the 107 /117 S&S motors for the Big Dog's came with roller Rocker Arms??

2007 EFI Bulldog with 117 did not come with roller rockers either. Has a 546 cam and single beehive springs rated to 585 lift.

Ain't just EFI. My '07 K9 has the above setup according to S&S when I called them. Gav'em serial numbers, they pulled the build sheet.

I had the dealer install a set of S&S rollers (at which time it was absolutey confirmed).

Which is why I'm looking for a "something less" than 600 cam to replace the EPA stick...

Why didn't you go ahead and have them put in some higher lift springs when you did the roller rockers? How much were the S&S roller rockers? About $500 I would guess..
Thanks for the heads up on that.
More people should pull off a rocker box and take a peak at what they have...

More like $600 range, included new shafts and bearings (and labor). At the time, the bike was less than 500 miles, was in Georgia and I was in Alaska... This one really pissed me off, 'cause the dealer absolutely assured me that the engine had roller rockers.

Now that the Dragon is home, I am shopping cams for a Winter project, but trying to stay within the range of the beehive springs - stick points to less stress on the top end for the long haul...
