S&S CYCLE - 106-5299 - Camshaft Kit - Easy Start - 585 Chain Drive - Big Twin '99-'06 (except '06 Dyna)
The S&S CYCLE 106-5299 is a 585 chain combining performance-oriented metallurgy with a weight-optimized design that keeps rotating mass low. Allows for easy start by initially reducing crank compression, but once the engine starts and rpm increases, the compression release lobe is centrifugally retracted and the engine runs normally, with full compression, and without any loss in performance. Designed for 88 - 106 CID engines with compression ratios from 9.7:1 to 10.5:1 and 106 - 124 CID engines from 9.0:1 to 10.0:1 compression, ensuring strong pin retention. Provides massive horsepower and torque increasses starting at 3000 rpm and hold steady to redline, and 3500 rpm - 6000 rpm for 88”-103” engines and 2200 rpm - 5000 rpm for larger engines give this chain the internal toughness to resist constant flex and impact loads. Includes camshafts, gearcover gasket, bearings, retaining ring, o-ring, threat lock and instructions. Whether running a practice bike, race machine, or trail bike, the 106-5299 delivers consistent performance. Sold as a complete kit.

How do I know if this part fits my vehicle?
Check the fitment information listed on this page against your exact year, make, model, and (where applicable) trim, engine size, or configuration. If your exact vehicle isn't listed, or you're not sure, use the product chat on this page or contact our support team before ordering - we're glad to help confirm fitment.
What does it mean if a product is listed as universal fit?
Universal fit means the product is designed to work across a range of vehicles, not that it's guaranteed to fit every one. Compare the listed measurements, mounting requirements, and connector or hardware specs against your specific vehicle before ordering, since some installations may need additional hardware or minor fabrication.
Where can I find installation instructions for this product?
General installation notes are provided above where available. For detailed step-by-step instructions, refer to the manufacturer's documentation included with the product, or use the product chat on this page for questions about difficulty, required tools, or whether professional installation is recommended.
