Compensator Sprocket Upgrade
I bought the Andrews 30T Trans Pulley. Goto page 4 for a pic.
I've searched and haven't found my answers, so I need your help guys.
I looking to change my my compensator sprocket to a lower tooth count for more get up'n go. I'm looking at the:
Evolution Industries 30 tooth kit, which is about $330 (only setup kit I found)
The stock compensator is 34 teeth.
Is there any other kit that is 32 teeth?
I just think 3250 RPM's on the highway at 70mph is a bit to much?

Post the link to the setup you have.
Did you notice a big difference?
The stock transmission pulley tooth count is 32.
Dennis Kirk $131.99 for this 30 tooth setup:
Andrews Belt Drive Transmission Pulley
Is it harder to install than the compensator sprocket? Is this all I would need or a new belt too?

It is harder to install because you have to take off the comp., clutch and inner primary cover to get to the pulley, then it's a bitch to get the nut loose but the stock belt does fit, mine has been in for a few years and I still have room for adjustment, I don't think it will stretch much more anyway. It's a mod well worth doing.

here is a link from when i did it, should explain everything. It is by far the best power mod that I have done. makes it very nice to cruise.

What's the advantage or point of getting the Screamin' Eagle® Big Twin Compensator $249.95? Is the tooth count smaller? Harley says:
"This premium compensator has been engineered with heavier springs and increased travel to support the high-torque output associated with high compression race and large displacement engines. Designed to support up to 7 times the energy absorption capacity of the Original Equipment compensator, this unit helps protect the engine and driveline components during harsh drag race launches."
....so is the only advantage a smoother ride?

I agree, the transmission and crank need some shock absorbtion. I would use the 30 tooth pulley. Installation takes an extra 5 mins compared to the comp sprocket.
