Thanks for all the helpful responses. This is my 2 cents:
Like SBB, I get the occasional clunking, grinding when starting.
I have two riding buddies with 2010 CVO SE's and neither have had any similar starting noise issues.
The MOCO now installs this compensator on 2010 CVO's and Trikes. Is this being done as a product improvement, or is it a fix to a problem on pre 2010 110's? What do you think?
I have some long distance trips coming up soon, so I was going to pull the primary cover to inspect clutch, chain, and tensioner anyway.
Though modest, my performance improvements (no-cat, TTS, Fullsac cores, Ventilator air cleaner), still increases HP/TQ by around 15% over stock.
Much of my riding is two-up, fully loaded.
And most important, I have not added or changed anything on the bike for over two months!!!
Thanks again for for your opinions.
