Did all the 2010's have the new improved SE Compensator? I have a 2010 SEUC and when the bike gets nice and Hot I have this Clacking noise coming from the Primary. If I pull in the clutch it goes away?????
[/quot

Your 2010 came from the factory with the SE Compensator in it stock. As for the primary when hot noise I have the same noise and have heard it on every 110" motor with the hydraulic clutch I have listed to, some louder than others, pull the clutch in and the noise stifles.  Doc

After my SE compensator was installed and the bike got hot it made a whirring noise.  The chain was to tight.  after they loosened the primary chain it went away.
Now that I have said that I will add the new SE comp definitely is more noticeable (sound wise) than the old one.

Well Tech support this morning informed me that the SE Compensator was installed new in the 2011's. The 2010's have the standard Compensator. Tech Support told me that was a normal situation and that it will not break.

All the 2010 CVO touring models recieved the SE compensator as stock. As did the trikes.  Doc

*Also posted in another Compensator thread*

Made the call yesterday to Harley Customer Service....  I explained that 1 in 5 times I'm getting a very loud 'kick-back' then the bike won't start, also an extremely loud bang when it doesn't fire, then the bike cranks repeatedly before it will start.   Explained about the loose metallic sound in the primary, and was told all of this is 'normal' for a CVO 110 motor.  Told there are no known issues with the old Compensator.   Was given a reference number and sent on my way......

Sounds like one of the tightwad execs found out someone was authorizing upgrading the compensator under warranty and put out the word to Customer Disservice to cease and desist.  I've always loved how they can sit there behind their monitors and read all those lies to the customers without giggling.

If you really have the issues you mention, and they don't fix it, sue the SOB's.  Small claims court, doesn't cost you much other than your time, irritates the hell out of them.

An official letter from an attorney to the Dealer/Motor Company will work wonders.
The Motor Company doesn't like those letters.
Yes, it's a damn shame it has to go that far, but we do what we have to do.

I think I heard that noise in mine with it hot, in neutral and the clutch out. A slight rattling noise. Only once so far though.

After speaking with the MOCO folks at Sturigis last year at that little meet and greet they put on for CVO Harley members, I've come to realize not only do they monitor this site regularly (they offered that up willingly btw) my own experience is they use it to their advantage when possible. In the interest of full disclosure, I wonder if I could figure out how to scan a copy of my receipt of the compensator warranty as a reference to the problem that doesn't exist??

They have no worries about alienating their loyal customers or their employees it seems!!! Shame on them!!!  :soapbox:

I'm getting ready to pull my engine for the Darkhorse crankshaft plug/weld/true and the Timkin bearings.

I'm on the fense if I should go with this new compensator then.  If it's main purpose is to eliminate 'shock' to the crankshaft will I see much benefit other than an occaional clank at start?

Absolutely you should.  The improved compensator reduces shock load from the entire drivetrain - not just the motor...   :2vrolijk_21:
