Great to hear a review that isn’t just regurgitating product details that I can find a million other places online... subscribed
I'll have a full review up after I get some more miles out on. Only a couple tanks of gas in
Just had this cam put in also. It makes the bike sound like a Harley should. I used to short shift with stock now it's so much fun just to stay in the throttle. You hit 4500 rpms and it's like a turbo kicks in.
Oh yeah. It balances out the power much nicer so you can rev it out and actually feel like you're still in the powerband
I had it installed on my 19 rgs few weeks ago. I agree , when I hit 4k rpms feels like a turbo or a dirt bike power band.
I have the same bike and cam, I think it makes the ride so much better
100% agreed. Wife hopped on the back this weekend and it has no problem pulling the 2 of us anywhere at any speed
Good video; bike sounds great. Clearly the stage 2 upgrade didn’t come with a free bike wash...🤷🏽♂️
Ridden not hidden. But yeah a wash was in order so that's what I did this weekend.
Yea I never let my H-D get that filthy , I have pride in my investment
@talkingrock7011 probably why mine has 41000 miles on it now and why yours barely leaves the garage if you're so anal about keeping it clean
Runnin the 465 in mine and i love it as well . thanks for a great review 👌
I have a love the 475 in my 2020 M8 114. Would love to hear more about differences between 475 and 465.
Just put this s&s cam kit into my 114 fat bob and it’s turned into a complete rocket ship. Just using the power vision tune from fuel moto until I can get the dyno tune in a couple of weeks and really dial it in but I hear your comment about taking it easy. It’s far to easy to smash speed limits. My mpg seems to really have been impacted but will know better after the dyno tune!
Mine hasn't been too bad. When I'm just cruising I get 39-40 mpg. But if I'm a little less conservative I get 36. A dyno should help figure out where maybe you're too rich in your mixture causing you to lose mpg. Fuelmoto knows there stuff but to dial it in for your elevation, pressure, average humidity etc will make a big difference
@@MeathedMoto got the bike back from dyno today. Making 121hp and 12 torque and feels so much smoother / better haven’t had a chance to work on mpg yet but it’s definitely going to be better
123 torque. Not 12!
Dam that motorcycle is loud! Your neighbor loves you
Thankfully I have a neighbor with a loud V8 F150 and another with a loud power stroke so I fit right in 😂
Funny. I have the 2020 114 RGS. We must have similar taste...I also did the 12-inch Vintikta bars, full 475c kit from S&S. Did the 13-inch windshield (perhaps yours is the 9-inch? Even though Im only 5'9", I sit pretty tall because I have short legs. Added legend shocks front and back, Scorpion seat with extra gel from BadBoys, Kromewerks slip-ons, HD Screamin' Eagle Ventilator Extreme Air Cleaner. I ride it as my daily rider since I share a car with my son and he takes it to work each day. I live in tune with the weather. If it is too cold, rainy or snowy I just look for stuff to do around the house and do my errands the next day. I'm also semi-retired so it is likely easier for me than a younger guy who needs to be at work at the same time every day. Have taken it several states away and back to visit family....works flawlessly. I do, however, need to get it to a good Dynatuner guy at some point as the mileage is a bit low and the o2 sensor triggers the check engine light...even after I reset it a couple times. I'm sure it goes off as it is simply running too rich and sometimes smells a bit like gas in the garage. Cheers!
Sounds like you might be two rich at idle. Definitely worth taking to a Dyno to get it dialed in and get some more ponies too
@@MeathedMoto yup. The problem is I live in a pretty remote place. Will have to wait until I go to the city at some point…about 1.5 hrs away. Keep making good content. I know I like all of your videos
I love the S&S 475 and your bike sounds great! If I look out the window and see snow, I'm waiting for a warmer day
I hear ya. But as soon as the temps start rising I get the itch
Bike sounds killer, especially when you’re running it out!
Oh yeah. Past 3500 it's a screamer.
Gotta love a dirty Harley. Miles are definitely being laid down. 👌😎. gonna install the S&S 465 in my 2020 softail standard soon. power vision tuner lands tomorrow. Great video man!
Spot on about the 475 with a 2-2 exhaust and losing a few hp! I have a 132 BB low compression and opted to keep the 475 and keep my Vance And Hines Mini Grenades over going bigger cam and 2-1 exhaust because of the raw bad ass sound! Ill take the few less horsepower and smile every time i hear the exhaust and cam lope. Once you hit 150hp, it doesnt matter anyway lol!
Realistically the butt dyno doesn't feel the difference between 110 and 106
@@MeathedMoto spot on my guy
I’m super excited I’m getting a s&s 475 installed and dyno tuned on the 19th can’t wait hope it’s worth it ha
Definitely gonna feel like a different bike past 3000 RPMs. Still is strong down low but it's really awesome past 3k
@@MeathedMoto what year is your bike mine is 2021 so I’m keeping stock oil pump. Fuel motor told me no reason to upgrade unless go bigger bore later
Bike sounds strong 💪
Pulls hard and has a much more balanced powerband now. It's well worth the money to gain 20hp over an exhaust and tune.
The bike is filthy! Give it a clean mate.
The video is 2 years old mate.
Went from a RS468 cam on my M8 107 to the S&S 124ci and I LOVE IT! guess the moral to the story is some are born to ride the Beast!, but MOST! Aren't LOL! Ride safe Brother.
I'm sure in the future I'll go to a 124. But gotta build it right so I don't destroy it after a few miles. Ride safe man!
Just put this cam in my 2020 low rider s with an abuelo D&D upswept exhaust, very throaty and a torque monster
Awesome man! Enjoy!
sound is awesome
got the same cam in my 107 i find myself wanting to stay in 5th gear more often now instead of 6th.
Same. Until I get to the 80mph range on the interstates here I stay in 5th
Do thoes pipes have the pcx catalyst in them plus are the baffles in or straight piped
Bike sounds wicked 🤙🏾
Decent numbers with that exhaust.
Yeah it's not bad. Made a few more ponies with the 2 into 1 bassani plus the bassani sounds better
I'm very pleased with my s&s 475
Adding a 465 to mine, great vid!
Thanks man. You'll enjoy it!
Sounds great!
Running great too
Great video. Sounds sweet. How do you like your bars? I am Between those or the fxr Motowich.
I love em. It does depend mostly on your style choice. I've bounced back and forth on the FXR division bars too but I like the fact that nothing had to be cut or modified to make these bars work
Gotta be honest, he numbers are low, and it’s because of that crappy exhaust. It’s a power killer and not just horsepower, the torque you’re leaving on the table you would definitely feel.
No....I did not know this...I will change my ways
Like. Like. Like
So after putting on some miles with the Cam has there ever been any issues or slippage with the clutch??
No thankfully not. Haven't had any issues with the clutch and I have about 8000 miles or more. If I go get a big bore I'm sure I'd need to do that.
A nice microfiber cloth and a quick detail spray will help that beautiful bike lol! Love the bike very nice
Yeah this was shortly after it was done being worked on and had been sitting all winter. Shes not always clean but I like em dirty
Just curious and maybe someone on here can answer...what is the best Cam I can put in My 2022 107 Street Glide? Thanks!
Great video and the Bike sounds Awesome!
I love my 475 cam but it really depends on your riding style. If you spend more time in the lower rpms a lower lift cam like the 465 grind is better. If you're revving your bike out and running it to the limits the higher lift cams will do better like this 475
@@MeathedMoto Thanks for the Reply...I'm a HIGH RPM guy! 🤣🤣
Those pipes sound sooo much better than my 2-1-2 witu Tab zombies
They sound good. Want them? I'm selling them.
Which pipes you switching to?
Nice sound. Off topic, but who makes those bars you have on? Thanks!
Vindikta
The s&s 475 s king for a reason.
Sure is!
Hey mate, you notice much difference in your fuel range? 🤘🏽🇦🇺
It dropped a few mpg but I still get 200 miles on a little over 5 gallons
great video!
Thanks man
Sounds great.What tuner you using?
It was tuned with a Powervision. Only tuner I'd use next to a Thundermax
@@MeathedMoto Yeah.I heard nothing but good things about Power Vision.Vance and Hines FP3 is kind of limited.
@@1pollo1rabbit that's what I had before. It is very limited on it's capabilities. I think if you're just looking to run a little better than a stock tune after an air intake swap and exhaust. But if you're thinking of doing cams, bigger throttle bodies, bore kits etc, go with a Powervision or Thundermax. Almost all shops can tune with those as well
o shit it does sound good after its warmed up my bad
Yeah when it's cold the idle is pretty high. Once that thing is warmed up it for sure lopes pretty nicely
@@MeathedMoto czcams.com/video/CI4o5cBh5HU/video.html
@@MeathedMoto my 114 with 475 cam
What are those bars?
Vindikta Hoop Teez
I have a stock 114 and I want to get out of the realm of your hp. Any suggestions?
So the 475 cam is really there 100 horsepower cam. So no matter what kind of exhaust you're running you'll probably achieve a hundred horsepower. For reference my two into two pipes actually got me 106 horsepower but if I had a two into one pipe I'd probably be closer to that 110 horsepower. I would recommend either of the S&S 475 cam or the redshift 468 cam. I know that Woods also makes good cams as well but I do not have any experience with them. I do recommend buying a cam plate and oil pump so that way your engine won't be starved of oil and it will run cooler as well. My bike was tuned on a Dyno with a dynojet power vision so that is what I would recommend or a thunder Max tuner. Hope this helps.
Don't forget a good air cleaner as well to maximize flow into your intake
@@MeathedMoto I keep hearing s&s as well as woods did a little research on red today but my thing is I’d like to keep the oem look with the dual exhaust so maybe I could change the exhaust to a different company like bassani with some mufflers idk I want loud and numbers I’m looking to get into somewhere like 143 hp
keep in mind with that kind of goal in mind you'll probably have to go big bore (128 or 131). you'll also have to consider upgrading your valve train components, clutch basket, springs and plates, as well as the compensator. Personally try a cam upgrade with the pump and plate and get a baseline. You will be surprised at the difference just a cam and good tune will do to your 114 even though it's not 143 HP. 114s make bout 90hp at the rear or so just to 115-120hp with just a cam is a 33% gain.
My 131SE is very rideable , I don’t have a clue what you’re talking about
Your Harley 131 is probably rideable. I'm talking about the insane 124 and up builds that's make ridiculous power everywhere in the RPMs. I've talked with a few guys that have big bore motor builds and because the M8 can make a lot of power when you put all the right pieces on it, you basically can make it like a light switch where it on/off. The slightest twitch of the throttle and it's ready to buck. To me that can make a bike unrideable in a way. Your 131 if it's running the cam and tune that comes with the kit isn't that.
Hope the shop have you a discount for not giving you a washed bike back.
I'd rather pay for a bike that runs well versus a shop that gets it clean.
sounds pretty good, need info on exhaust
It's a Vance and Hines Big Radius 2-2
When was the last time you washed your bike? Lol. Cam sounds really good!!!
It was away in storage for winter then got pulled out to get work done so it was months
@@MeathedMoto ah ok. Same as mine lol.
Did you do anything to the clutch from stock?
No. Stock clutch pack can hold the power. If I get bigger displacement, change throttle body, injectors, etc I'm sure I'd need the do something about the clutch and compensator
Was it dyno'd with or without baffles?
With baffles
Who rides with their bars that close?
My bars match the angle of the forks. They are not close in reality
Beautiful bike! The SS 475 cam feels like it going to stall when in first gear at a stop Did you ever experience the feeling of stalling when in first when taking off?
I experience that every so often if I stop and start my bike often. Happens if I go to the gas station, shut the bike off, fill, start up the bike again and it idle downs a little too low to the point where it's like is it gonna stall. But it idles back up and finds it's happy spot. I rev mine a bit before I go in first at stop lights.
@@MeathedMoto Thank you very mush for your reply. I enjoy your videos. Ride safe.
I have the S&S 475 cam with bassani 2 into 1 dyno tuned with same numbers and definitely has a little issue wide open throttle off takeoff but if you just roll on the throttle then smash it you have no problems! I've been told that to get rid of it you need to upgrade your throttle body!
@@jacobfox6838 it's because of the aggressive cam timing of the 475, you need to wind it on slowly to get some intake velocity. Other cams without the huge over lap don't do it.
@@jarrodwilson7702 i can see that that would also be what make this cam sound more like a twin cam at idle, which i love ever since I trade my 09 for the 18 I was disappointed with the idle! Now it sounds wicked and just cruising at 3k rpm the bike kinda sounds like old big 4 stroke like a Yamaha 426!
Is there a break in time for these ?
No
Is that on a 107’ or 114’?
107
Is the bike weaker low diwn below 3k?It looks to be according to s&s dyno chart?I love the sound.
Not really. You don't have as much torque as a lower lift cam like a 465 or 468. But you have more top end. You get a more balance power curve. It makes more power everywhere than stock
Can you tour on this cam? 500 mile days?
Yes
Dude, you have to wash that bike.
I do what I want
lol sounds good
What did it cost?
With the upgraded cam chest plate and oil pump, the Dyno tune and labor it was a little over 2k in all
What c.i.?
107
I like the sound. Bad A$$
Thank man!
Question. Is the motor a 107?
Si
107 with the S&S 475 chain drive cam, S&S cam plate, oil pump, lifters, lifter cuffs, pushrods etc. Makes 106hp and 119tq at the wheel
What tuner do you have ?
It was tuned with a Powervision on the Dyno. I don't have the Powervision itself as the guy I go to just buys a new license then gets it tuned up on the dyno
@@MeathedMoto ive been debating on cam kit but i think im going with the S&S 475. Impressive reviews. Thanks for sharing your vid
You Don't Need A 2 into 1.... Your Bike a Is Awakened... Thats Exactly What I Want.
I enjoyed the swap to a 2 into 1. Makes better power and a better sound to me
i thought i ride in the cold when it’s 60 🥴 but u riding in snow lmaoo wth
Yeah I rode it back when it was 35 degrees a few days prior
dont sound cammed out
don't know what to tell yah then...
Bro, canned out all the way
Bike sounds awesome, bike is filthy. Please wash can’t watch video.
This was fresh out of winter storage man.
😂
