    Default problem with primary chain adjuster

    triGlide has 37k. on it .anyone having problems with OEM primary chain adjuster? whats the best manual adjuster. installed a new bolt in the screaming eagle compensator which had a shoulder on the bolt that the old one didn't have.

    1.59 from dealer. it had blue locktight on it. so i put 2 drops of red on the inside of the blue; and torqued it to 170 ft. lbs.

    just bought a open box with no instructions

    need install instructions for DRAG solid sprocket compensator

    p/ 1120-0390 vn 191200

    started the bike up ad the p/ chain flops wildly. just over 3/4" slack. it was 1/4" when i removed the primary cover.thanks leon

    You don't state what year your referring to, but the compensator & cam chain adjuster have been a problem for years.

    Have you tried using your GOOGLE machine as there are a bunch of instructional videos on YouTube.

    Here's 1 link of many from the guys at Fix My Hog addressing the problem:

    Check Baker Drivetrain for a primary adjuster.

    Your chain all stretched out and your maxed out on your adjuster?

    Is the block worn out?

    How many teeth were on the compensator versus new??
