True, Don. But on Honey Badger - for better or worse - that's a rounding error. In for a penny, in for a POUND...

Know that feeling.... 

I keep a spreadsheet on all the bikes with every part changed, added, upgraded or otherwise altered.  Keep it for the part numbers so my own maintenance is later made easier.  Don't have rediscover later what was done when I always have part numbers. 

There's also an MSRP column in each of those sheets should the unfortunate ever occur and something is needed for insurance.  That particular column is only visible on first data entry though.  After that I just don't want to know.

YEP! That's the way I look at it. And for a net $200 I'll do that in a heartbeat. It's a LOT better option than having pieces of plastic glued inside the primary...

Ken

That was my thinking exactly!

Anybody have the part number for that new cover?

Don, I did that on Bertha, my old '95 FLHTP. Looking at that spreadsheet got me to the point of depression.

I knew better than to do that with Honey Badger. Looking at IT would probably make me suicidal!

I've got a spreadsheet from day one on my ... it includes MSRP and actual cost (try to purchase P&A when on sale or from discounted dealers). Guess I'm just a little more anal than the average OCD'er.

Has anyone as of yet completed an install of this new kit?  I am curious about the needed rotor.

I am under the understanding that a rotor (30041-08) from a previous SE compensator install will eliminate the need to purchase a new rotor too.  However the instructions in the kit calls for a rotor 30041-08A?  This must be different or else Harley would not have given it the "A" suffix.

I wonder what the difference between the two are?  I hope there is not a difference in the machined flat surface area on the outside face of the rotor as that would affect the stack-up height and change the designed preload on the spring sets.

The SE catalog only calls for a rotor 30041-08 and not a 30041-08A as the instructions do.  

Any thoughts?

I have no idea of the "A" designation.

If you already have a older version of the SE compensator, you do not have to buy a new rotor.  All parts of the 2014 compensator are different except for tthe rotor and the clutch washer pack.

[jpb]

Thanks!

Still curious about the A revision though.

When you say clutch washer pack are you refering to the spring pack?  It is included in the new 42200064 kit and also has an "A" suffex added which is different than the previous SE compensator kits.

Strange.  I wonder if these springs have a different pressure rating or load curve.

The re-designed SE Comp still uses the same rotor and spring pack. All other parts are new

Going to do this change up on my 09 eglide

Up here in Canada it will cost 500 bucks 2014 comp kit, adhesive and new rotor.

I have a 2011 kryptonite sesg with gloss black motor so my 2014 part number is Gloss Black Primary Cover-60886-11A.  It is only $239 list so any of us with black motors would be crazy to mess with glue. I have over 16k miles so far without any compensator problems yet but now I know I can upgrade without messing with adhesive kit when I'm ready.

[LC110]

Is anyone 100% sure the new cover is a new cast or are they just glued parts added to the cover? 

[reg26]

I bought mine from Hales Harley and the guy opend the box to look at it before shipping and told me it is cast in there as part of the primary.....No plastic
