Shirley a round of Young's Double Chocolate Stouts for everyone that's
gathered here tonight, while I pick at the collective knowledge base. It
appears that my compensating sprocket nut may have loosened due to general
abuse of the entire drivetrain, hell the entire motorcycle if the truth were
told<g>, and while perusing the manual for the torque value I found the
following:
"Used sprocket nut: apply two drops of red loctite to threads, hand tighten
in clockwise direction. Insert primary drive locking tool on top strand of
primary chain. Tighten engine compensating sprocket nut to 75 ft-lbs. Mark
a straight line on the engine compensating sprocket nut, continuing the line
over onto the sprocket cover. Tighten the engine compensating sprocket nut
an additional 45 to 50 degrees."
IIRC wasn't there a bulletin about an update to the torque process? A
higher torque value, more additional degrees after torque value was
attained, something? Anybody else remember something about this? Also
would you go ahead and remove the nut, & re-loctite it, or just torque it
down to specs, whatever that may turn out to be? Go ahead and get another
Stout from Shirley, if you can get Kickstart to leave her alone long enough,
while I contemplate if I want to risk death and/or serious injury by not
unhooking the battery when I start working on it.

There's this one, but it doesn't apply to yours.
Anything else I can not help you with? <g>
Also, it's a negative on those part #s for the Deuce sliders, thanks for
looking, and the offer.

M-1170 Compensating Sprocket Torque Procedure
May 27, 2005
Purpose
This Bulletin documents a torque and turn-of-nut procedure for
tightening the engine compensating sprocket. This procedure improves the
clamp load on this assembly and replaces the present tighten-to-torque
procedure.
Motorcycles Affected
All 2003 through 2005 Touring, Softail, and Dyna model motorcycles
including CVO models with Twin-Cam engines. Production vehicles began
using this procedure May, 2005.
Dealer Action
Update all service literature and notify service technicians. To assure
this procedure is used, insert this Service Bulletin number in the
TORQUE VALUES tables in Section 6.1 SPECIFICATIONS of the Service
Manuals covering Touring, Softail and Dyna models for model years 2003
through 2005.

No problem. Sorry I didn't have anything that'd help.

Why does that somehow sound synonymous with Hershey Squirts?
<snippage re: Larry's nut>
You can't trade it on an '09 with a loose nut?

Can't trade it for an '09 anyways. It's too soon after getting the motor
built for Boots to believe that it would be the right thing to do. Wish I'd
married a dumb blonde, instead of a sharp one.<sfsf>
