Default Dark Horse Man O War Sprocket istall info?

Ive been looking around for an install video or write up on a Man O War motorsprocket install. Is it a straight forward swap on newer M8 engines or must you remove the flywheel like on the Twin Cam engines? I am very interested in installing one of these especially if its a simple swap without pulling the fly wheel.

The compensator, primary chain, and clutch basket come off and go on all at the same time. Probably nothing you should attempt if you think it has something to do with the flywheels.

I installed the 32T version on my RK and didn't have to remove the flywheels.

Read the original poster's quote and THEN you'll get the joke. Reading is fundamental on the internet.

How much rpm's would you gain at highway speeds? Does this make a big difference from light too light?
