2020 Harley Davidson Road Glide Special Stage II | S&S 475 Cam in the saddle review

[@americanbaggerraf6604]

I have a 2020 FLHT 107. After a ton of research I ended up with the Red Shift 468, fullsac MX header, S&S MK 45 slip ons, power vision and Arlen ness big sucker. 100 hp / 110 torque smooth curve no dips. It’s so much more fun to ride. I looked into the 475 but it definitely works better on 114 and bigger engines specially high compression. Sounds great, congratulations!

[@HudsonMoto]

Thank you for watching! I was looking into the red shift cam also. Moonshine Harley Davidson did an awesome video on cams.... I narrowed it down to the s&s and the redshift... and the reason why I went with the S&S was the shop that I go to was having a sale on the 475 haha

[@freebehindbars8654]

100/110? Left a lot on the table, definitely with the torque.

[@RAIDERWORLD]

Can’t wait to start my Stage 2-Up builds. Good stuff bro 🤟🏽

[@HudsonMoto]

Best upgrade for the money! You will enjoy it when you get it done! Thanks for watching

[@RAIDERWORLD]

@@HudsonMoto absolutely! Looking forward to it

[@PaulOnTheRun]

Good review. Ever since I put in my 475 cams.....I CAN’T HEAR JACK!!!...haha. Oh well but it sounds badass and garnishes the admiration or disgust of the people that hear it. Deuces ✌🏼

[@HudsonMoto]

Yeah, definitely sounds bad ass! Thanks for watching

[@harryhowell5644]

Nice review just did stage 2 on my ultra 107 HD torque cam S&S oil pump cam plate lifters. I found it really wants to be ridden now at 3k and up. Funny you said the same the meat of the powerband is now 3-4.5 k rpms

[@HudsonMoto]

Thanks for watching. if I'm not on the highway going 70 80 usually around town I'm in a lower gear than usual because I keep the RPMs around 3,000. it's something to get used to for people that been riding Harleys all their life because the torque is down low but if you ride a sport bike it's almost the same because the power on the sport bike is higher in the rev range.

[@TheHighestGodisGood]

I enjoyed the video and congrats on the 475 choice! Love it in my bike too! Just liked and subscribed 🤘

[@swiftcloud1]

I Have the stage 1 done now doing my research on what cam I want! for the stage 2

[@HudsonMoto]

Best bag for buck S&S 475 cam… and I would spend the extra money on the whole cam chest and a a good tuner . With those two things you can see a 20% gain in HP and torque…

[@FLYANDRIDE15]

Sweet ride! I recognize the road you were on, river road in edge water in route to Ft Lee(I thought you were making a right by interstate park at one point, or at least it used to be interstate park. :), old stomping grounds for me. I do love the sounds the 475 makes in idle. Enjoy the new power!

[@HudsonMoto]

Thank you for watching.... Yes it was interstate park beautiful area. It feels like a totally different bike now. And yes I agree the 475 sounds awesome!

[@tonniecate4231]

sweet bar set up. That's exactly the set up I have on my 19 Road Glide. I just ordered the 475 cam and have a bassani road rage 3 stainless coming.

[@HudsonMoto]

Thank you! The bar setup is great I feel like I have more control. And when you add the 475 the engine will come alive! Enjoy! Thanks for watching!

[@MrScrappydoo85]

Great review, I did the 475 cam in my 107 and you were right on with the power range. I put the Legend Revo A’s on the rear of the bike and it feels like an entirely new bike! I’m looking at the Legend Axeo for the front end

[@HudsonMoto]

Thank you... I appreciate it. Before I decided to go with the 475 cam I watched alot of KZbin and read too many articles lol. Best bang for buck... I have been pushing off the suspension cuz adulting gets in the way... Priorities I guess haha Thanks again for watching!

[@williammarx7800]

I did the same with the rear but holding off on the front til I do my fat tire kit.

[@THEHEADLESSBIKER]

[@j.vosier6786]

Does your bike ever feel sluggish or wants to die when upshifting from a stop? My cammed street glide stalled twice at a red light when i was trying to accelerate

[@HudsonMoto]

I don’t think it’s the cam you might have to get it tuned correctly… if you are using the SE tuner with a 475 cam. The tuner can’t handle that cam … I would go with power visions or thunder max tuner

[@j.vosier6786]

@@HudsonMoto i bought the bike used from a harley dealership, previous owner had it cammed, im taking it back to the dealer so they can have a look at it, thanks

[@j.vosier6786]

[@ridertrinity1617]

Hello. That's a nice bike. I have a question. My motorcycle is fltrx which was shipped in 22 years. I usually run from 1500 rpm to 3500 rpm. What kind of camera is right for me? 475? 465? Does 475 have a severe fever? I want to change the camera and feel the vibration and sound more shaky than the pure sound and vibration. Like an old bike. Is the 475c cam effective after 2500 rpm? Does the 465c cam have a good effect from 1500 rpm? Thank you for reading the question and please reply. Have a nice day.

[@HudsonMoto]

Personally I would go with the s&s 475 cam. You increase your horsepower and your torque. Peak torque hits at 3500rpm. If you want your peak torque to come in a little lower then 3500rpm. I would get the Redshift 468 cam by zipper’s performance. You can not go wrong with either one. And to get the best results make sure you get it professionally tuned. Thanks for watching

[@HudsonMoto]

I haven’t really don’t an actual test but with mixed driving I would get about 200 mile a whole tank… when I went to Tennessee last summer on the highway I got about 220. That’s cruising at 75 80

[@wooddawg4868]

I love Harley Davidson bikes, I have owned 3 in my lifetime with my current one being a M8 107 Street Glide special. But here and now in 2023 HD bikes are overly complicated and outdated designs. Pushrods, primary chains, lifters, 3-hole oil fill, and drainage. The discontinued engine by Victory now owned by Polaris did away with all the parts that caused problems as did other bike manufacturers such as eliminating pushrods, eliminating primary chain, using full counterbalancing, full water cooling, smooth shifting manual transmission with no clunk sound, chain driven overhead cams. HD has just been trying to sell the outdated 1940s/1950s design forever until they came out with their Revolution Max format that will take over the entire line if HD is to move forward with a less labor intensive power plant.

@@HudsonMoto Rockford fosgate sends a template to cut out your speaker lids so you wont need new ones. That amp they sale with the purchase fits in your fairing and can power up to 8 speakers. I went with 6 speakers myself. 6.5" Uppers, 6.5" lowers, and 6x9's in the bags. The lowers I bought OEM painted from hogworkz for $360. I could add 2 more 6x9's in the bags but I would need a special lid to house duals in each one. Dont need them anyways. You can hear me coming from about 5 blocks away or something stupid.

All KZbinrs have this one thing in common.....they lose me in the preamble. Too much chatter, instead of getting right into it after the intro. I'm not sure whether this to lengthen the time of the video. But I think it makes more sense to miss the audience with all the jibberish, and irrelevant commentary. I'm willing to BET that their listening audience will magically increase by very noticeable margins.
