Hey Guys:
Who has been inside their 2011 CVO Road Glide Ultra's primary and knows what Harley installed for us?  I installed a Hayden M-6 on a Road King I owned for 16 years and loved the way it shifted.  My CVO RG is a little "clunky" for my taste.  It's time for a 10K service and I'm trying to plan ahead.  What's in there, or what are you running?

Thanks
Chris

Stock is the HD hydraulic tensioner. The clunk is pretty typical for the six speed trans and crappy compensator.

When did they start coming with a hydraulic tensioner? I've only seen a spring loaded racheting type tensioner.
