Default Starter ring gear

Hi to all
I have a 2012 heritage softail 106200 miles
at 37000 miles I took off the compensator and put a twinpower solid sprocket adding a Hayden m6 tensioner...the bike was perfect till I had 103000 miles the bike did a noise and there was not tracción open de primary cover and in the outer clutch hub there were not any spinline and the gear main shaft was worn
both hubs and main gear shaft were changed at the same time I update the compensator using the New screamingeagle one with the oil deflector
a few days ago I starter the bike a a weird sound showed up open the primary and the starter gear ring had two pinions less
changed the outer hub again and few days later same sound and same issue one pinion less
I think that,s the compensator that do that ...so Ive put the solid sprocket again and till now the bike start right having one pinion less in the ring....
what do you think about it guys?
Sorry for my english I do my best
thanks a lot
