Someone will have to give us the name of the comapny Chip, but a big aftermarket company is testing theirs and is supposed to be released in the next few months.

Anyone have a link to this "2014 model year technical forum" to see the breakdown of Harley's new compensator??

Posted earlier today in another thread...

sorry for maybe double posting but I didn't see it here: 2014_Model_Year_Technical_Forum.zip.

Note: as the Company got so terribly innovative as of lately it's no longer a .pdf but a shockwave-application (ca. 30 MB!), so you may need the latest Shockwave Player and after unpacking the .zip Datei you will have to start the "NMTF_EN.html" in "2014_Model_Year_Technical_Forum".

BDL - Belt Drives Limited - makes a compensator that I've used for about 1000 miles on my '12 SESG.  The original HD compensator was in bad shape after only 5000 miles.  Before I traded the SG for an Ultra, I removed the BDL comp and put it in the new bike.  It seems to work well; it's quieter than the stock unit and the magnet on the primary drain plug wasn't covered with metal shavings like it was with the POS HD compensator.  I paid $140 for it, but I think it retails for around $200.  

Here's the link:

http://www.beltdrives.com/chcomp.html

I couldn't find much chatter about it on the Internet, so I don't know about durability.  We'll see.  So far, so good.

I have been watching this one. I think they had issue with their first design. Like he said above not much talk about it. This could be good or BAD. I may try this one????

Any other users or reviews??

I haven't heard of this one.  Be keeping a eye on it and doing a little research.  Time for another new one is rapidly approaching.

I've been watching this one also.  As Brad said, they've had both manufacturing issues and design issues so far.  I knew there were a few out there as beta testers, but I didn't know it had come to the market.  I'd be careful with this version.  It's would be nice to have a compensator that doesn't wear out prematurely.  But don't lose sight of the purpose of the compensator - protection of the driveline.  I'd rather have a compensator that wears prematurely but protects the driveline than have the opposite...

www.darkhorsecrankworks.com   in Wisconsin is working on their own but is not to market.

Pictures can be seen at Vtwinforums if you do a google search of "darkhorse compensator"..

The compensaver is probably going to be going out of business the way I see it as the MOCO won't make any more of the compensators we all have so there won't be a need for the compensavor???   A compensavor is going to do no good on our compensators that are already worn out.  FWIW..

I would rather pay the aftermarket for a HD product than pay the MOCO again fopr the same item.

The old "fool me lonce/twice" line applies here.

Compensator's, compensator's, compensator's.
Today (but maybe not tommorrow) the compensator's are fine on the 11.5 SEUC and the 12 SERGC.
Hopefully sadunbar will decide which one I need to buy when it's time, but until then,
I'm more worried about lifters.
It's amazing, with the 01 SERG and the 03 Classic I don't worry about lifters or compensator's.

Wise choice!   :2vrolijk_21:

Of course, I took your advice.
But what worries me is I know lifters going bad is not the real problem.
It's what causes them to go bad that scares me.

 :2vrolijk_21: :2vrolijk_21:    From what I've been able to find concerning the design of the BDL unit, it is much closer to a solid drive gear than a true compensator.  Very limited travel and I'd suspect rapid wear of the threads it travels on as well.  The Harley unit is a POS in terms of reliability, but it at least provides protection for the drivetrain.  I'm not so sure anyone can assume the same for the BDL offering.
