Actually, I can make a case for smart kid!In general, raising the compression within reason does increase HP regardless of other factors. Adding the 2S cam provides even more HP at higher RPM, but damages performance at lower RPM - probably why Combats normally have 19T front sprockets. I've built a couple of Combats for people who asked for the 4S instead of 2S cam - less gain at the high end and less loss at the low end but stronger overall than a non-Combat 750.You made have also gained/lost with sticking with a 30mm intake track, but still the compression did raise the power.The 2S cam can help with kicking due to the low-end loss. It sounds like you made the equivalent of the RGM T140-style kicker - they do make kicking a little easier and so will your modification. Thiers is a little better because it sets out further from the bike while kicking so your leverage is a little better - I wish they weren't so expensive and out of stock a lot of the time!
