Compensator?

Are there any reasonably priced good quality compensators for the evo, or stick with the HD part?

Thanks

What motor,since if still a 80cu motor, oem comp will out last the motor in the first place.

Plus, with the first TC motors having the old evo comps to begin with/them pulled to update to the later TC comps, easy to find a good used evo comp with stator rotor as well. Hence TC later comp used a different stator rotor, while the evo stator rotor has the cup with concave springs as part of it instead.

Side note for fun, but even the old Lambretta scooter motors where running comps to smooth their pulse out.

Not to highjack the thread but does someone know who makes the comp with the isolation dampeners in it, they are smooth and replaceable.

Darkhorse comp?

If yes, then will need to change out the stator rotor to later model rotor, since the Evo comp has the spring pack Cup as part of the rotor piece (welded to it).

What you will need for the iron house comp to work.

I got one from JP Cycles in 2013 for $99, its been on a 111 it’s whole life, still running it, fed nothing but Rotella. changed a failed rotor not long ago and it still looks good. Check V- Twin or Drag Specialties or JP, probably all out of the same manufacturer, looks like around $200 today.
