A cursory look into the primary inspection cover doesn't reveal any reason for the chain slap I seem to be hearing. Chain tensioner seems to be in place and in one piece, tension seems to be fine.

Yup. My buddy build's bikes like that. Good profit margin. Garage candy for the track home king!

Here is my buddy's new-to-him 79 HD. Not sure what model it was/is. It has had a frame up makeover. He is waiting on some electronic ignition parts and a caliper. He also has a 07 Ultra Classic. He bought this so he could pull himself away from his shop 50 yards from his house to get away from shufflin now and then. Otherwise he'd just keep paintin bumpers and fenders 24x7

Redline in mine ( trans ) made a world of difference.
