Gorgeous bike!

Based on the amount of slack in that chain I’d say the old shoe was working fine…..

So you do have to buy a new rotor for the bdl to work

Is it nessesary to remove the starter ( bolts ) ?

Nice bbut the baker is twice the price of the screaming eagle ? I mean a baker is about 800 euros?

Great video thank you.

What was the bike doing that made you replace the mounts?

Check out an evolution Industries bump stop. Retain the factory tensioner but stop it from rathecting wherever you set it for slack

Nice job! Seeing people dremel the case is very unnerving!! Doesnt look that bad to do it properly. Im leaning towards Baker myself. Need to pop the cover & take a look, getting weird noises. 09 UC, 41k miles. Thanks!!

Thanks for sharing the torque spec. Im thinking my 2003 electra glide ultra classic is the same.

Your moving a bit quick there mate. You didn't film the actual installation of the compensator. . You jumped a stage in filming.

hey how much did the spring pack cost you and is it a baker also.

That wedge will never slip past half the slide, unless the compensator falls off....

i meccanici americani muovono le mani a vanvera, senza uso razionale degli strumenti, senza rigore

So wise of you to use a torque wrench to loosen those bolts and I just love your method of stopping the rotation while doing so. Nothing like the ignorant teaching us all how to do it right eh? They make these things called "Manuels."

Plenty of weird looking supermodels,this one's not a cookie cutter blonde

Hartley got this set up from the old Triumph AV link frame

Hello everyone, kindly check the link on my profile to get all motorcycle parts at affordable prices, can ship anywhere and also available for pickup

I need to do this too my 03' Dyna! I also need too change out upgraded chain adjuster back too manual adjustments because auto is ratcheting up tension just like you said here! I've learned to make chain measurement readings on 3 equal distant chain locations, too get that 5/8"-7/8" as accurate as possible!

I need that exhaust !!! Where can I get one ?

I have to do this ,I have a noise in my Dyna primary, , when I turn it off from this area ,thank you

I don't like silent movies

I just had my shop do exactly this, and it’s very noisy. Even the mechanic was concerned with the noise. I’m not sure if it’s the primary chain running over the baker adjuster or it’s too time. The mechanic assured me he measured 5/8 play at several points. I’m not satisfied with this. Maybe the chain is too tight, and we should back it off to 7/8. IDK?

Red locative on the compensator bolt

You did not have to unscrew the clutch adjuster, just take the spring clip off and it all comes in one piece and you won’t have to readjust the clutch,

You did not torque the compensator nut to Harley Davidson specks

Excellent job! BTW what handlebars are those?

Haven’t these dynas got a rear mount as well. I just bought a set front and rear

Question, I just fitted the compensator & new rotor cover. But the spring basket is free to move it rotates and has free play (1-2mm) side to side. Is it the same on yours? The original Harley spring basket is welded to the rotor cover. It has eliminated the clunk on start/stop but has a spinning noise when running. Appreciate any feedback

Shouldn't the locking tool be switched around to the bottom of the compensator to the top of cluch pack?

Typical hack job (no torque wrench)

awesome, I have a 09 heritage, i have bought all the ins n outs i need. about to do this on mine. I went with the dark horse comp eliminator, and baker tensioner, also have a thundermax ecm to install, looking forward to the new bike when its finished

Those auto tensioners should never be any more then half way on the slide, any more then this indicates a worn primary chain / sprocket.

Love the VB beer on the shelves!!

Do it on a Harley

uhm!v uhm! uhm!. Are you begging for ohms??????

two things I'd like to point out.1 your supposedto torque the comp nut, back it off and do final torque. 2 it 55 oz of primary oil when dry. about a quart wet.

Great video on the baker install. Well done mate ;)

It would help if you would say what the problem was you were having with your bike in the first place. Was your bike making noise while you were starting it??

VB!

Update! Had the hard starting issues when hot again....baker has been in for nearly 60,000kms now....pulled primary apart and inspected and it’s showing signs of wear and skipping at the top of the ramps so that’s what’s causing it to kick back....spring pack looks intact so not sure why it’s worn the top of the ramps....only done it a few times over the last month or so but I know from last time so it’s getting changed out..this time going with dark horse crank works compensator the design looks awesome and serviceable, baker out did the Harley one by 20,000kms so can’t complain.

hey installed 1 of those in my bike 3 years ago and opened my my primary to see whats going on in there and found out my Baker Attitude chain adjuster was bent and chain was not riding flat along shoe. Took it out and with a 10' crescent wrench and straighten it out wasn't that hard so i won't put it back in. I noticed that Baker web site has beefed it up but people are still having problem with it bending.Talk to Baker and they wouldn't do anything for me but i really didn't want anything from them anyway. Just my 2 cents guys

What SIZE NUT is on the shaft? One one each end, but what SIZE are they? I'm in the middle of pulling the swingarm outta my '96 King...

Thank you for this video. Is there a way to post a photo how to keep the swing arm from falling off or to keep it easy to move around please ? Also, if there any parts ie suspepension or wheel to remove before the work please ??

Great video

I still think man should have three hands

Having trouble indexing the alignment pins on left and right side,right side is at 1 o'clock?

You know what , I was actually thinking about buying one of these things , not no more , Thanks for the tip . Cheers .

How often do you have to check / adjust the primary chain when you switch to a manual chain tensioner?

Had my primaries apart lots of times and never once put new inner primary bolts? Why? Unless they are stripped or rounded just clean loctite and torque good to go! Same reasoning you don't install new outer primary Allen's every time...
