Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need a Stage 1 intake cam to match this?
A: While you can run this exhaust cam with a stock intake cam, pairing it with the Stage 1 intake cam will provide the most balanced and significant power gains.

Q: Will this cam make my bike harder to start?
A: No, Hot Cams are designed to maintain excellent starting characteristics while providing improved performance once the engine is running.

Q: Is this a good cam for street riding?
A: Absolutely. The Stage 1 cam is great for street-legal DR-Z400S and SM models because it improves the "snappiness" of the bike in stop-and-go traffic and lower speed limits.
