They like compression, 1200 heads are Ok, the stock cam is pretty good too as it maintains a decent bottom end torque curve.
I researched cams for what seemed like ages, unfortunately unlike the big twins with sporties there is a trade off over stock. The only cam I found that kept the low end torque and carried it through was the Hammer .570
Self tuned through a less than optimum 2-2 exhaust it netted 88/85 on a ball breaker of a dyno. Once it hit 3500rpm it went real good, kept all the bottom end too.
The guys at hammer are legends, Spoke to them on the phone for well over an hour about what my goals were and they are a pleasure to deal with.

Thanks for the responses guys
I might go have a chat to Brian again , Bloody good tuner the dyno was money well spent .
recently I have lost 22kgs and have noticed my bike has gone much quicker , thinking that is awesome , made me thought to add more power lol , cams have been on the mind so that may be a possibility.
Dont get me wrong the power for me is pretty awesome , pulls hard and has plenty of power for the street but a little more to get the heart pumping would be nice :)
Also brash your old sporty seat is pretty dam good and comfy thanks for that
Also the tuner I am using is the screamin eagle one orange colour

Diet and training at the gym .
Pretty easy actually . Just weight your food count your calories and workout

Different pipes and air intake may give more hp, but you would be chasing small increase over what you already have. Big dollars for small increase
