LOL ... yep, my wife just loves it when I transfer the paper from the shredder to the boxes ... the stuff goes everywhere and she has to vacuum all over again every time.

It is so common I didn't even think to mention it, but we rarely get a plug & play, instead needing a short piece of metal to use as a bracket to position it in our desired position.
I usually grab a piece of scrap, cut and drill to what I want with a test fit & then paint black so it will disappear.  Lock washers on everything.

The JETSET was in a yellow folded bubble padded envelope in the box with the muffler.

Hahaha, glad you caught it before it went out in the trash !

Dyna muffler #64941-01 is the direct bolt up Dyna muffler.  You do need to make a gasket between the header pipe and the muffler but the mounting rail on the back of the muffler fits correctly to the 2 mount holes on the S40 frame.  Use carriage bolts to not spin in the muffler rail; 8mm or 5/16th by 1".  For the gasket I used aluminum sheet a bit thicker than a tin can.  I cut a 1 1/2" strip and cut a 45 degree angle on each end that matched up after 2 circles of the header, 3 wraps wouldn't fit.  I found 2 Dyna mufflers on ebay for $40 + $20 freight.  They were like new perfect.  Google "dyna muffler 64941-01".  There are a number of them available on ebay today.

It has been a while but the last time I had numbers they were:

Setup:  Stage 1 Cam; 36VM carb; cylinder had silicone carbide treatment  but still running Suzuki piston with stock compression; outer ring on exhaust port of head opened to 1.6" to custom match header ID of 1.6"; good high flow muffler.  
(header/muffler shown in photo above)

With that setup it was producing just over 40 hp at the rear wheel.  
0-60 and 1/4 mile runs from a stop required hanging over the tank to keep the front end down and I was still not able to fully use everything it had until after rolling a bit.  
0-60:  4.9 sec
1/4 mile:  Trying to remember...but right around 12 sec, 11.9-12.1 area  @ 90 mph.


The bike at the time was a bit over 300 lbs & I was a bit over 200.  Seems like the total wt. was like 525-530 lbs +/-.  

So I cannot really say what the Camshaft does all by itself, since I have not had JUST the Camshaft and no other modification in my engines.
That said however, the Camshaft does determine the CHARACTER of the engine.  The stock cam of the LS650 engine is "mild mannered" to say the least.  A Performance Camshaft will give this engine some real ATTITUDE.  These particular camshafts, the Stage 1,2 & 3, are not "Race" cams, but good efficient torque producing cams which is what this engine needs because that is what this engine is made to do, so you go with its strong points and enhance them.  
At this point I am only producing the Stage 3.  I think it has the best qualities of the 3.
