I have a 2001 FLHRI with a S&S 124 - 130hp 134 tourque. The bike has 133,000 miles on it and the compensator. I think the compensator is worn out (imagine that). I want to replace it with a heavy duty compensator but I have been unable to find one for a 2001 touring bike. Does anyone know of a SE type compensator for this model bike?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

 

There are no high torque compensators that I know of for your model you may want to consider a straight sprocket.

 

New stock comp is fine.. The Drag Specialties are OK but the diaphragm springs in the compensator spring pack tend to give up.. Price the stock HD,, It's getting pricey..

 

Thank you very much for the help.
I think I'll just put a Drag Specialties comp in it and hope for the best.

 

One other thing. I'm running a Barnett Scorpion clutch in it that requires ATF fluid instead of oil. Does this drastically reduce the life of the comp?

 

I'm running a Drag comp in 2 bikes. One is a 131 ci FXR (since built new) and the other is a 116 ci Dyna. The ramps and sprockets seem to to hold up well but the bellevile springs in the 131 were cracked after about 12000 miles when the motor came down for crank replacement.. The 116 only got the comp because the cams were worn at 55,000 miles..

From what I've seen the pre 2006/2007 comps do pretty well with about any type of lubrication. I used 10w40 motor oil.. I'd expect that AFT should work well but you might ask around for the best type of AFT.. Heck Mark should have some good suggestions.. Supposedly there are some synthetic ATFs that are pretty good.. Ask the guys at Barnett also..

 

I run Redline Primary fluid per discussion w/ Barnett.

 

Thanks. I talked to Barnett and he basically told me Amsoil, mobil1, redline....etc. and any of the normal weights would work fine.

 

Mark, What are the advantages/disadvantages of running a staright sprocket? Why would a person want a sprocket over a compensator?

 

Torque, compensators are made for comfort not high torque. Compensators provide cushion in the drive train. A straight sprocket is going to be a bit more jerky on and off the throttle because the cushion is gone.
