Default Balancer chain gear help

I have a 2005 CVO Fatboy I picked up as a basket case. I need the sprocket for the crankshaft balancer chain. I have looked everywhere. I am trying to avoid finding a junk crank just for the sprocket. The number on it is 14766-00A H-D. I can buy a crank from the dealer for $1K. The crank itself is fine except for a missing tooth on the sprocket. I know it is pressed on the crank with no key. I can time it by lining up the flats with a dial indicator then tac welding it. I just cant find the sprocket. I would mind paying for a good CVO 103 crank. Any help would be great. Thanks.

It's not a service part. Call John Dahmer at Darkhorse Crankworks. It's a 2005 so it should trued and the crank pin plugged/welded if you have it apart. I am willing to bet they have those from junk cranks. If you call John tell him I said hello.

You'll be money ahead addressing the entire crank now.

Thanks Ed. I will give him a call on Monday. I will address the whole crank while it is out. I just needed to made sure it was feasible.I checked it before I removed it from the case. runout is at .003 on the left side. less on the right.
