Title: Compensator spacer?
Post by: BigT on January 27, 2019, 01:44:11 PM
  I'm in the process of reinstalling the stock compensator on my 2017 Street Glide and I seem to be missing a spacer that is shown in the parts book  exploded view. The attached picture has a arrow pointing to the part. Can anyone tell me if this part was eliminated and a possible error in the book. I can't buy the part separately and I'm not sure what would happen leaving it out.   [attach=0]

That is a o-ring that is inside of part 17

While we are on this subject, has there been any issues with the comp. like we had with the late T/C?

   right now with the primary being flooded with tranny fluid the comp should be very happy and well lubed.  :wink:
Time will tell how well the comp does once it has the proper fluid level in the primary.

I've seen a few reports of them breaking into pieces.
