So, it looks like those T509 cams are working out for you?
It would seem so. I must say that it was a very easy thing to do and the result are enjoyable.

May be there are more complicated way to gain power but I was not interested in that. With these cams it is about like having 100 HP at the crank which is quite good for this bike. At speed the bike remains me that the frame is not the one of a sportbike.

For your main interrogation about the T309 or T509, don't ask me, I could not tell you the difference between them. I did a fair amount of reading before starting this and I knew that the cams I was getting could be the wrong one. I was reading that I needed a certain year of cams but in most cases nothing was backed up with facts. (dyno run) Actually, the dealer where I got them verified the part number and they were the same.

Now we know for a fact that more recent cams are working.
