Hell, it just occurred to me that this whole IDS scheme may be solely to prevent the pressed-together crankshaft from getting twisted as has been reported as having happened to some.

I would assume that you know the rattle or tranny noise everyone is talking about with the 07's. From your ride on the 08, do you believe that the IDS is the fix? I understand you stated there was still a slight noise, but what are your thoughts? Did they change something in the 08's??

RE: 07 Tranny vs. 08 Tranny
On the 08's the compensator was redesigned and the IDS was added.. I will replace the compensator (with an 08' one) and install the IDS on my 07 SG..
Here's a direct copy from the Rocker review...
The Rocker features the balanced version of the new 1,584cc engine. Power from the Twin Cam 96B is transferred through a six-speed transmission and primary modified to accept the Rocker’s wider tire and fender.
I turn the key and fire up the balanced twin and discover that the slight clunk from the compensator I used to hear in the TC96B is gone. The redesigned primary includes different ramping on the compensator that eliminates most of the reverse loading that occasionally caused that sound.

Makes sense, I've allways known it was the compensator... (rattle)

I like to consider myself mechanicly inclined! From the last post I understand what the IDS is doing. What I don't understand is how this IDS is masking the noise issue with some trannies! I do understand harmonics just can't believe this is the solution. Still curios to see the breakdown on the 08 vs the 07 tranny!! I still believe that "Red Line Heavy Shock Proof" is a great and really make a HUGE difference....
