Significantly cheaper than an exhaust and it actually produces more power!

From 20.6 to 24.9HP is quite a difference. Plus 20%.
Do you know what the difference is between the standard camshaft and this upgrade? Is it the valve timing or the lift height or both? |

Hitchcocks a UK dealer in parts for Royal Enfield offer a hotter cam swap for the 411 Himalayan . The himmie is like a Vespa in that it is a low brake horsepower engine. However Im sure with the himmie , they also couple the cam with a through flow air filter and an ecu piggyback.

Is it the valve timing or the lift height or both? No, sorry, no details. Probably both but cannot be much extra lift nor very aggressive because it is a straight drop in. It thus should not affect the life span of the engine much if any. Here another example of the little sister models |

Interestingly they changed the camshaft without removing the engine - very tight!!! PS I aim to change the camshaft+cylinder+fm3 in my hpe in a couple of months |
