Bigscary- I hate to tell you this but to make the change (cam) the stage 2 is going to do you a better all around job. Looking at your sig you will be adding dual valve springs. So while you are at it you might as well throw in the 12-1 and be done. I have yet to see a really fast raptor on straight pump gas. I was talked out of a 12-1 piston in my very first 686 a few years ago. I really did not want to run race gas at the time. Big mistake on my part. Every motor that i have done since the first one has been 12-1 piston. I do believe that they run cooler and they are just as reliable. The race gas issue is not a big deal. I just got back from a 3 day week end in the sand and went thru 15 gallons of race fuel. If i had been a built 11-1 i would have gone thru the same 15 gallons of premium. So my 3 days of fun was a extra 30 bucks. The extra 5 HP is worth every penny of it and the smell is better. Saddle up and do it right when you go back in. 6 months from now you will not be kicking yourself for not doing it. Do it and smile everytime you hit the gas.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
Alot of us have been there and done that. Save the grief, bite the bullet and do it. It is just another 150 while you are in there now. 6 months from now it will be all the labor all over again.

JMO but I don't like Web cams I feel there too hard start wearng out other pieces too fast Plus when running a web they say you shound harden your rockers
There a major increase in mid to top from the stage 1 to the stage 2.
I run the 12.1 and love it and every body that has run it love it!!!!!
Rod problems I STILL think there a problem with the 01 and if its a newer bike then they jetted wrong!!!

Big scary- my 2001 built stock bore is every bit as fast or faster than my 2003 686. Use the springs that you have.
There are a few spring choices- kibblewhite and RD
Pat has a point about the web cam being a harder metal.
If i ever plan to run the wb 685 i think i would go with FCR's next time
