Solid Compensator
#41
Mine where too much happy hand, usually the belt would let go but on 2 occasions it didn't and the output shaft either spun in the wheel or snapped off at the bearing. Others various reasons but everyone was scissored to some degree, you look at the overall build, condition of the bike in general and a bit of chat the owners you can usually sort out what went down. I am not a fan of the machine assembled pressed together flywheels the twinkies and later are using.
Your answer along with the video confirms for me, If I was working over a Twink I would be doing something with the crank insurance policy.
Albeit the S&S video showed a crank with some very shallow welds...
I don't know who welded that is was improper at best.
That is NOT a structural weld!
Still--
It does, in fact, show the lack of quality in a HD Crank.
But to belabor the point and the argument-
I have no clue how a comp deletion would hurt a crank unless it was ready to self-destruct anyway.
That all said, there have been plenty of Twink cranks that fall apart just tooling dwn the road.
I know of a Dressor that did that in Sturgis two years ago.
Yes, HD did take care of it fast and well. but still
Rubber cranks?

Yo must know right?
What do you use to base your answer on?
Is this a hip shot guess?
Internet expertise?
Prior experience?
You have heard?
You do realize there is thousands of comp deletes?
Also, these deletes have been around so very long, don't you think someone would sue someone if it ruined a crank?
Even if they lost it just woud not be worth selling a 100 dollar sprocket?
Please tell me where you absolutely base this fact of yours.
Thanx
