Does anyone make cams for these? I haven't found anything. Has anyone ever had a custom set made?

Yeah, bummer that there's no aftermarket support..I did some more digging, looks like the 1700 big bore kit
had the hottest cams. Looked at some pics on ebay, can see the difference
on the lobes.

I bought an exhaust cam the other day from a Triumph dealer to replace my cam with the broken off decompressor mechanism. I only found one part number/cam available now. Bought it and installed it. Can't tell any power difference from before.
