Now there's a Harley-esque solution for you.  Fix a simple machining question in one place by adding a wholly new and unnecessarily sophisticated system someplace else.

If this absorbs torque power pulses, it also absorbs torque.  Less tq/hp?

Will await real time reports on this.  Looks like a vibration damped sprocket - sort of.

Umm, guys, any of you ever own a Japanese bike in the 60's (or 70's, 80's, etc)?  What you're seeing is H-D reaching into the past and borrowing a device that was standard equipment on every unit construction bike I ever owned.  The rubber "cush drive" system attempts to dampen power train impulses, similar to the compensator H-D uses.  Pretty slick how they get you to hand them over $300 for something that should have been part of the design from the git-go.

Pretty much what I thought too.

The MOCO is about as crafty as they come.
