   Just put in a Wood WM8-22x. ended with good results. Runs smooth and keeps pulling.

If you're keeping the factory warranty, use the SE447 torque cam and SE tuner.
If you're done with the factory warranty, I like the TTS150, RS468, or WM8-22X, and TTS or Power Vision tuner.

Gonna throw my endorsement in for the Zippers Red Shift 468.

Makes plenty of torque down low and keeps pulling right to red line. My bike is a 107 but I expect you would get similar results with the 114. My engine also runs significantly cooler compared to stock with the RS 468 cam and Power Vision tuner. Seems to run around 260 now compared to 300 or more with stock engine.

You definitely want a cam that makes lots of torque down low cause if the cam is biased for peak horsepower, you will be disappointed with it in everyday street riding.

We constantly use/stock those Red Shift .468's for use in both 107" and 114"s.
HUGE torque delivery, and when at 55-65 mph highway speeds, you are "in" the torque...just twist the throttle.
Finished another 114" yesterday with that cam.

While I really like the Cams mentioned above. And, have used them all.

However, for the expense and return in performance, as per your question: "best suited for touring & keeping engine cool " It's pretty hard to beat the Screamin' Eagle Milwaukee-Eight Stage II - Torque Kit [Part Number: 92500047].

   You can't bet that for what you get.

The Red Shift .472 will smack almost as hard, but have it's peak about 200 rpms farther out.
Just sent another 124" home to NJ, last Saturday, with an S&S .550, D&D Billet Cat, 64mm, with other goodies, etc, but without headwork.........139 hp/150 ft/lbs.
