What was the advantage to change the cams for the 865s? If the cams in the 790 are better with the BB, why would they not be better in the 865s?



Like the Tbkike cams, the 790 cams are more of a high rpm hp type grind.
The 865 cams are more for low end torque.
I think Tbike even takes the position that they offer no improvement over the stock 790.
I take this to mean the 790s & Tbikes are a similar grind.
All this would basically hold true regardless of engine displacement or CR.
It still strikes me as odd that the 790 engine has the "hotter" cams but lower redline of the two engines.
