While you're in that far, I would do the SE compensator. It's on the list of my things to do in the primary. I think my stock compensator is a weak pos.... when I start the bike, it leaps to life so quickly that the stock one is slammed to it's limit... not a good thing. I'm sure it will help in other areas too.

When my starter went the first thing they checked was if I had the SE Comp. The stock one is a "POS"

ya the guy doing my machine work, whom has nothing to gain from this, since I am doing my own wrenching and buying off line, highly suggested this. said it is a very overlooked very important part of the build!
