Custom Cycle Engineering makes great stuff.  I wish I could afford to buy a panhead just so I could bolt on a set of their finned panhead rocker box covers.

I dont think many noticed but they won a product of the year award  with these
it not just a have azz set up ,it makes my pingel feel stone age. the two models they offer each have  totally diff feel from each other.

I did manage to get a few pictures of some of the nicest products I could find.  For example this is one of the tire displays.  I forgot to look up to see which one but that really is irrelevant.

One display had an increadible product that I just couldn't image improving on .....




But they made changes overnight, not sure which I liked better so I had to get another picture.



They seem to go good on either arm, who knew??

Steve at GMR, Dark Horse, and Tman all had left-side compensator components and kits.


K.

What did the tman have for a comp kit?

Springer,
I don't think my wife would let me buy one of those products and I'd need a bottle of Viagra or 2..

I saw the compensaver. The one at the show is plastic but the production ones will be cast steel. The sample comps showed me that it works.

I saw it too, here was their booth for those that didn't get to the show:

The two guys close to the table are Richard and Ron.  Directly behind Ron's right shoulder is Steve from GMR.

You just have to convince her you got it for her!

S&S is making pipes now, they look like drag pipes but they have a crossover that is well hidden.

I'm not too sure if this addresses any of the issues with the actual newer compensator itself or not...  T.R. and I got more involved in talking about forced induction piston design and cyinder head design. I forgot to ask him much about the left-side bearing support piece he had there.  Below is a picture of it...  He did mention how it definitely helps to support that side of the motor.  My earlier model stuff ('00) hasn't had any issues with the compensator, so I have yet to pay too much attention to them.

Did anyone else get the scoop?

Great Pics !       Mayor you getting the tongue?

I can see someone assembling one of those Hoban Compensators with the blocks in the wrong way then complaining later that it doesn't work.

I thought it might be reversible, one way street, other way drag strip...

Here's a pic from Maxicharger's bench.  The concept is pretty simple, it's the compressor side of a turbo that is belt driven off the cam.  I though the look was pretty clean. 

Great stuff !!

Had a great time in Cincy. It's nice to put a name to a face finally.
Great group of HTT members!!! 

It was great meeting all you guys. Good people. See ya all next year

wow I am so jealous.  The amount of knowledge in that room was probably only surpassed by the shear amount of Bull Sh*t being spread about like honey butter on corn bread, dang I wish I was there. very cool pics.

Mayor wanted do know why I didn't post this picture.



A couple more.
