I'm interested in more info about this one piece compensator.
You'll have beast of a motor. You shouldn't want more than what it puts out. Unless you're going to start racing, you got more than enough for cruising the streets.
I know he called it an "evolution" compensatory. With a little google'ing, I came up empty handed....
Evolution makes a 1 piece sprocket in place of the compensator. I finally went with it after I kept tearing up compensators. I was told that the limit for torque on a compensator is 130ft lbs. If you are running more that that, do yourself a favor and go with the Evolution Industries sprocket. The only thing you have to remember is to keep the rpms above 2000. Anything lower, downshift.

Here you go. Not a compensator though. It is a sprocket that eliminates the comp. Page 16 is the 34 tooth and 17 is the 30 tooth. I would go with the 30 tooth...

We went with a stock gear ratio replacement, so I guess the 34 tooth. We have some 75mph speed limits here in TX, and maybe even a couple of 80mph zones near Austin- so 75-80 can be a common cruise control speed - I think that is why he he left the gear ratio alone.
I know I dropped from a 25 tooth to a 21 tooth (I think those are the right numbers) on my EVO , and it really helped it off the line - but hurt on the highway.....
Haven't been on this site much lately and just ran across this thread. I had Wolfgang rework a set of 110 heads and do my cylinders and pistons for a 117 I had in a fatboy. Ended up at 138/132, very fun bike. You'll be happy with your 124.

Thanks for the info !!
Honestly, I think I would have been happy with a well built 107 from him..... But he highly recommend a S&S crankshaft- and a 124" build seemed to be the best and for the buck if we were going to split the cases....
136hp should feel a little different then when you dropped it off!!! Nice man what was the tq? That's gonna be a runner for sure congrats man! Post a chart when he's done playing with it
