Unless you have headwork and more compression than stock, different cams are a waste in an X1 IMO. Stock valve springs are only good to about .510 lift, and the stock .497 cams have that and a fair bit of duration.

Do the cams you have now have markings on them? If so what are they?

Looking at the pdf, they are "B" grind, which, if I understand correctly, is what the X1 would have come with from the factory. So they are the same as what you currently have in the bike. Although maybe European models were different?
