Description
If you’re running a touring bike and tired of timing chain lash robbing you of power and precision, the S&S Cycle 551 Series Cam with gear drive eliminates the slack entirely—delivering more consistent valve timing and unlocking higher lift potential. By reversing rear cam rotation, this kit provides additional lobe clearance, meaning stronger low-to-midrange torque where it counts on the street. You’ll feel the difference across the entire RPM band, especially in the 1,000–4,000 RPM sweet spot.
