That's awesome. Saves a shopper a LOT of time. Thanks!

We should get a sticky goin about what peoples mods are, how/where they ride, and what cam they use for it. Or add it to this?

Stewie, the CRF head has a different head than the TRX, so those numbers might be off a tad.
 
Anyone ever come across a crf450 pro circuit cam in our quad motors? Previous owner of my 05 put the cam and matching valves and springs in with it. I know it pulls pretty well but I've always wondered what the actual numbers would say.
