Cams and bigger jets in carb. or a bigger carb. might be a few ways to go.
I go least expensive first, like rejetting the carb.
Just my .02

Ps. see also this post ......."cam set up on 1200 sportster", on this page
Everyone wants to change the world but, no one wants to change the toilet paper.

An adjustabe igntion would help you. I like the Daytona Twin Tech ign the best.

Hillside Motorcycle

Headwork, cam change, GOOD exhaust system, carb, ignition, and a good tune.
