SOund clip..Idle speed, cam questions

[mittens]

Cell phone clip (Iphone 6), walking around my 107.

It does sound better in person.

Per the other thread on too low of Idle RPM is horrible on Main bearings...

You guys think that's to low of RPM?
Any guesses what cam that's in there?
The hollow hits, in-between the firing strokes, I assume is the other cylinder on the opposite stroke?

Looking forward to it. We need more videos and specs of what we are hearing. I know on LSX motors, you can youtube any cam, or exhaust and hear 20 videos of each one. you youtube, S&S 107 600 cam and not shit. kinda of surprising actually. or any of the cams really, 585 there is a few of, but its all on harleys.

with short pipes and no baffles, kinda hard to tell, but it does sorta sound like a 585. if the idle is a little low, you can make a 569 sound a little like a 585. (for a little while) it also varies with how well the motor is warmed up. lots of variables.

Wood... not sure about who/what your talking about... if it´s about my vid, trust me it´s a 585. the 569 it´s now on my desk as "paperweight" :2thumbs:

Mittens Bike is an earlier model... 04? I would say it has a 600 cam?



BTW, its with BCT Baffles.

BTW, I´ve been listening the clips on three different PCs... and all diffrenet... the BEST way to hear it properly is with the "headphones"... awesome... try it!

Yes Mine is a 2004 107 S&S.. .just dont know what cam.

could be a 520, could be a 600. or something in the middle? haha. don't know.

Headphones are the best for sure. that's what I am using here at work.

Yours sounds good Fanco! yours has the mis mis mis hits a few in a row, mis mis mis hits a few in a row sound... Like it!

Mine is more of a slow hit, mis, slow hit, mis. slow hit, mis... but i dont know what is a bigger cam in a Vtwin. i know cars ha

Nice video, I see Sole was having some fun twisting throttle:2thumbs:

 

[woodbutcher]

was talking about mittens, he is the one that started the thread and ask questions about his bike.

 

[francoblay1]

rgr that. thought so.

Both sound great! but I think mitten's sound like a stock cam, franco you can definitely tell yours has the 585! That thing sounds bad ass! Makes me want to put one in my bike now!, and I love Sole on the bike while it's running, showed my wife and told her to do that she told me to shove it!:lol:

 

[mittens]

It probably is stock, but what stock one is the question ha

 

[francoblay1]

That was my point... 107 stock (if I am not wrong) b4 the EPA crap... they all had a .600 cam .... you need to call S&S and find out :up:

I was in the believe you already had a 585 in yours...... Oh Man..... you NOT know what your missing.... YOU WILL LOVE IT!!!! :2thumbs:

Just do it! It´s only about $100 bucks and a an hour (or two) of elbow grease!

 

[francoblay1]

Old one... TP Rocker Boxes & 569 cam... it was when I installed the V&H 2-2

This is what the BDM Service Manual 1994 ~ 2004 says on page one.
"107-inch S&S (Big Bore) motors are identified by the SA (Special Application) stamped near the serial number on the motor cases. S&S 107 inch motors will have either the S&S 520 or 600 camshaft installed."

I believe most were shipped with a 520.

The easiest way to tell is how many MPG are you getting? If you blow through 4 gallons at 100 miles or less it's a 600 if you can stretch 150+ out of the tank it's a 520. The guys with 600's can correct me if I'm wrong here but I don't think they can get 150+ mpg and I can get 150 pretty easy on my 04.


And franco, I believe you proved the point I was trying to make on the other post...any video recording is tough to make educated guesses. Can sound different on any PC and speakers and the recording instrument probably isn't great. How many people have tried to take a video of a concert for it to barely be audible or sound like dog poop?
