Compensator?
What exactly does the compensator do? I sometime hear a grinding sound when I'm trying to start my bike. This usually happens when it kind of "Kick back". Is this the compensator or the starter?
I had the same thing on my 2009. Also made a 'knocking' noise when
I took off in first gear (lower RPMs).When I took my bike in for a new
brake light switch...they replaced the Compensator.

I replaced mine (08 RG), what a difference! Starts like it should, instead of sounding like it was self-destructing. Much quieter when idling, no rattle from the primary. Good investment (SE Compensator). Ride safe.
