Baker Drivetrain has what Bert Baker describes as "the final solution" where the late model compensator problems are concerned.
It is engineered with an annular oil distribution system that scavenges primary oil and pumps it with centrifugal force to all radial and axial thrust surfaces - or as Bert translates, "this sprocket delivers quiet operation, relentless durability and refined function to smooth out the inherent power pulsations of the second-generation Twin Cam and M-8 motors."
"This drivetrain compensator kit is made from heat-treated 4140 alloy steel and features a decreased compensating cam lobe diameter to yield a significant reduction in cam lobe velocities, and with that comes a reduction in wear," says Bert.
The increased radial width of the compensating cam lobes reduces the P.S.I. loading, which greatly extends durability, and seven supportive spokes structurally tie the sprocket ‘ring’ to the sprocket hub.
The mass of the sprocket is concentrated towards the center, so the ‘flywheel effect’ is minimized - which reduces noise and vibration during operation and shutdown.
Basically, Bert's message is that it is better, quieter, more reliable and longer lasting than stock…simple.
It is available for 2006 - 2017 Dyna; 2007 - 2017 Softail and Touring; 2017 - later Touring M-8 models and 2018 and up Softails, though it should be noted that it currently does not fit Softails with wide rear tires (e.g. 240 rear tires on Fat Boy and Breakout).
"For 2007 to 2010 Big Twins, the customer will need a H-D rotor; for a 2006 Dyna, the customer will need a H-D rotor and stator; on 2011 Big Twin models, if the stock spring cup is welded onto the stock rotor, a new H-D rotor will be needed." H-D rotors and stators are available for separate and additional purchase from Baker Drivetrain.
