Default Auto Primary Chain Adjuster

Did I read right that you do not need to adjust the primary chain on the new Dyna's because it already has the auto primary chain adjuster installed at the factory? I have an 09' Fat Bob.

The newer (I believe 06 and newer) do have an auto adjuster, so the scheduled maintenance of of adjusting the primary chain has gone away. But for those of us with the older bikes we just have to remove an inspection plate to change the primary fluid.
