Your directions state 1/2" gap between shoe and plate.   

Yes, on the newer bike installations. You said you installed a while back on an EVO, I assumed that was a pre '06 unit, in which case the measurement is 5/8". It's all in our individual instruction sheets.

Thanks

Thanks for the response as just put one in my 2010 and did the 1/2"..  Did not know an EVO was different.

CAHDBIKER, if you wanted to go Old School, you could go the adjuster from Baker Drive Train:

Takes you back to the manual style adjuster.

 Wish I had taken a photo of my inner primary.  When they removed the clutch to replace the inner primary bearing there was a wear mark from were the front part of the clutch was contacting the inner primary.
These 2 problems feed each other. JMO.  If the stock chain tensioner gets to tight it puts pressure against the inner primary bearing....once the inner primary bearing starts to fail it allows the chain tensioner to tighten more which then puts more pressure against the inner bearing...and the viscous cycle continues.

Don't know if my theory is full of BS but I do know I am glad to have the Hayden primary chain tensioner on there now.

Mattm, thanks for the response. I am fine right now on both bikes. I did have a trans leak a while back on my 95 Heritage and I used a Baker kit to seal it. No issues at al since then. CAHDBIKER
