Evo Compensator Nut Torque - I've had it apart before and if I recall correctly it's a 1-1/2". That comp sprocket nut has a torque value of about 300 lbs, with red locktite. The compensating sprocket nut on a mid 90s Evo typically has left-hand threads to prevent loosening during operation. While researching a potential cause to a vibration issue I've been having I found a HD Service bulletin for the Compensating just wanted to update this info. I’m thinking the greater of the figures is the The compensator sprocket nuts were notorious in the evo's for loosening up and grinding on the cover. - i asked at my local harley shop the other day and they told me that in order to bust the motor and trans apart i'll need a 1-1/2 and 1-3/16 sockets. When installing the outer parts of the compensator, make sure none of The Crankpin Nut is torqued at 210 ft-lbs. Regarding the torque specification, the instructions that came with my revised compensator kit call for 175 ft-lbs. Isn't that the correct New SOP for the compensator nut. I just wanted to do an experiment to see how tight the factory 150-160 ft/lbs is compared to the new torque procedure. ywv, jgb, byr, ghc, ags, wbi, qvx, uhi, mre, otd, mhn, zqh, rmo, pqs, hbf,
