I have that same back lash issue you mentioned and I have the Baker unit.
I am thinking about going with the Darkhorse unit or the solid front sprocket.
Road Dog, I would appreciate any additional feedback you have.
So far so good, A lot less noise than the stock one , really no moving parts , still get the noise of the clutch plate's rattling in the clutch basket , pull in the clutch that stops , I used a hayden primary chain adjuster I have used them for years no problems , for $ 500. its worth a try and it can be rebuilt for less than $100.
Sounds like it may be a good option.
The decel backlash I get is my biggest complaint.
decel backlash to me is the primary chain out of adjustment ??
That's what I thought too, but I asked my local shop and he said the comp should take care of that.
I actually have the Baker Attitude Adjuster in it.
Just turned 9500 miles and dealer said I need to replace the compensator. Dealer said about $500 to $600 does that seem correct? Doesn't really matter since the ESP will cover it. Just curious.
Also, does 9500 miles on the clock but using the front brakes 90% of the time seem wrong that the dealer says I need all new pads AND rotors? I think it's ridiculous.
thanks

That mileage using the front brake mostly the front pads could be worn enuff to replace, I would measure them and the rotors and compare the specs. The rotors and your comp sprocket should be covered under your warranty, the pads are a wear item tho
Jack - Dealer said the rotors are a wear item and not covered under ESP but the compensator is. Rotors are listed in the ESP brochure though. I'll see what the general manager says.
A gal in our chapter also has a TG and has 16K and the pads seem to still be OK.
MDO - I haven't noticed any thing out of the ordinary with any of my brakes. No squealing, no pulsating, nothing but smooth stopping.
My Straight Talk ESP lists rotors as covered, good luck with your dealer
