It is my main ride to work. Saves me soo much fuel money it is crazy. Almost dumb not to have one. Being in Vegas an rideing 335 days a year helps.

Well the bike has been parked for a few weeks. Had a noise that was indicative of a bearing. Well I took it to a friend of the gun shop that works at Harley. This is the out come.

Spent $1000 getting the primary fixed. The support bearing was shot and the compensator bell actually has a 6 inch piece ripped from it. That piece took a ride around the primary chain roller coaster and found a home in the in the bottom of the primary case. The fluid was trashed and it had a few leaky seals. The guy took good care of me. I have an updated CVO compensator kit now and the bike no longer makes any noise in N. i also had them put rear brakes on too.

The bill was 1800 including labor. But he cut the hours down to 3.5 and gave me dealer cost on all parts.
