Why an automatic tensioner???? Well I'll tell you the shifting dramatically improved and the clunk is gone after I installed the Hayden M6 in mine. I'm sold.

I have a 2005 RK CLassic. Put a HB-125 on at 18,000 miles have 34,000 on the bike now. With the stock tensioner I had to adjust it 3 times in the 18,000 miles.

After everything I read and all the opinions, bought the Hayden M-6 going to install it this weekend.
Looked around on the internet and found the best deal at Parts Direct.
