 \\; \\; Looking into the Rivera Primo IV Extreme Open Primay set-up. \\; Anyone out there experience one or know of somebody who is running one on their bike. \\; Want to get some input before making a decision. \\; Please let me know anything if its worth it or suggest another company.. Thanks
In general, Primo is about the best stuff available. Expensive, but if that's your deal so be it.
Why not just run an inclosed primary with a nice engraved cover? Just curious.
i run a bdl, there cheap. i put a engraved outside cover on it and a bullet proof jackshaft, so it would not grind, and thats good. if i would of had the money id would of gone with primo.

I would make sure to get a belt shrowd for a number of reasons. Protect pant legs and minimize debree. I ran a 3 inch open on my 63 FL for ever (many years) forget which one now as its been a while and the bike is gone. White Brothers I think.
I have an 84 FL here with the 3 1/2" setup on it with the outboard bearings. It is a very smooth setup. Heavy for sure. Much quieter than my BDL. Better feel on the clutch lever with the Primo over the BDL.
