How's the wear on the SE comp and what fluid were you running for how long?

Wear on it is actually fantastic, surprised when I looked at it. Fluid has a lot to do with it, so from day one when I did my motor I ran Spectro primary fluid and when I installed my clutch I ran Redline Primary fluid. I have MAYBE 4k miles max on my SE comp setup.

I'll post detailed pictures later as I will be buttoning her up tonight w/ the Baker comp and will be picking up the gloss primary after work.

Did you change the levels or anything? What I'm getting at is I'd like one of those nicer clutch setups some day but I know the SE Comp and the clutch like different levels/oils so your feedback is valuable.

I always filled my oil level right below, so that it barely touches the bottom of the basket of the clutch assembly with the bike straight up (not on kick stand). As for exact amount I could tell cause I never measured it. The oil is mainly there for only the chain and the comp.

I also dropped off my outer primary on 8/3 to the Powder Pro and picked it up on 8/5. Fast service, great prices, and unbelievable work.

Ordered the Baker Comp on 8/3 and in arrived on 8/4! Can't beat that!!!!! What an awesome design that's been working on the older model cranks. Finally a company has researched and read what customers wanted then modified/improved upon and older deign to fit new style bikes! Fantastic!!!!

Going to run the rest of the Redline primary fluid I have and may switch to ATF Type-F next round.

Note: the nut for the comp is 1-1/2" socket

Now it was time to install everything together. It all went smooth and looks amazing. Finally happy that my primary drive is beefed up to the max!

Nice work HD Bobber! Looks fantastic and should perform great!

You are definately dealing with some 1st rate companies.

Thanks PILOT. Got some top brands in your too.

Gives me a peace of mind having all that hardware reinforce everything, but that's about it. Can't feel no other difference in the way it rides.

Rode over 200 miles today and put all the parts to the test a few times. Very happy with everything I did to say the least.
