The 2007 America had this combination out of the factory. I have a friend that has one. It does not seem to have any advantage over my 2005.

Well, not exactly; 2007 had carbs & used a CDI igniter, not ECU controlled like EFI. The carb model igniter won't run with EFI, and an EFI bike won't run with the electronic igniter from a carb bike.

Seems like the cams were different, but to the good. I had a 2012 sm that had good low end power stock. Better than the 05
