When installing the S&S 106-2874 cam kit into a MY2009-Up Victory® motorcycle the following parts will need to be purchased from Polaris®.
Note: When installing S&S .495” cams, it is required that you install S&S valve spring kit PN 49-0115.
Be sure to disconnect the battery of your motorcycle before starting on this procedure. Accidental starting of the motorcycle could cause
injury to you or others around you during the installation.
Model Year 2009 Cam and Cam Carrier Removal
1- Remove the front and rear stock cams and cam carriers from the engine that you’re performing the work on by following your 2009 factory
service manual.
Model Year 2009 Rocker Arm Removal
1- Remove the intake and exhaust rocker arms from the cam carriers by following your 2009 factory service manual.
Note: Intake and exhaust rocker arms should be labeled or marked front and rear so they go back together on the same head they were removed from.
Exhaust Rocker Arm Clearance
1- Front and rear exhaust rocker arms must be clearanced on the bottom side to accommodate the S&S .495” cams. Using a die grinder, remove
excess casting material on the bottom side of the rocker arms as illustrated in Picture 1.
2- When grinding on the rocker arms it is recommended to tape up hydraulic lifters, oil holes, bearing that rides on the cam, and each end of the
rocker arm where the shaft runs through to keep debris out of these areas.
Failure to clearance exhaust rocker arms will result in intake lobes contacting rocker arms.
