Default Which compensator in 2016's?

I know this subject as been beat to death. But, I've searched and couldn't find a definate answer. Which compensator does the 16's come with? Is it the one with the little tray? Is it the same as the SE one? Or would going with SE be an improvement? Bike is new but I'm tearing it apart to put a 126" in it. Since I'm upgrading clutch, clutch basket and chain adjuster. Figured I'd address the compensator if it'll be an issue.

All the Rushmore models have the new SE compensator. They work well on a somewhat stock motor however, if your building a 126 you need to consider a Baker Comp. and a Baker manual chain adjuster. I don't think the stock parts will hold up for very long. Good Luck!!

Go to the Harley video section. There is a history lesson on the different years up to 16 and CVOs

I installed a Baker Attitude Adjuster the day I bought my '15 Limited and couldn't be happier with it.

Best thing you can do for a quiet, trouble-free primary, IMO.
