No thanks to auto tensioners,I'd rather do it myself.Good chance to look around in there when checking the adjustment.

As I had the SOHB hydro on both of my evo, AND they did work!
So when I got the 08 RKC, that was one of the first thing I looked
at. Then thought I was lucky, that HD had a new and improved adj.
After reading further IT was less than desirable. So now I nees one.
But I cant keep ordering parts that are on back order, or the riding
season will be over. Tenn.Vol.

Suprize--suprizzzzze Harley made something LESS than desirable!

Not difficult at all. You'll need a primary gasket and 1qt fluid. When installing primary cover, torque the bolts in the proper sequence. Also check the comp nut for proper torque while in there.

pavin dawg said 1qt of fluid Faast Ed said his takes more than a qt 06 and down
takes a QT 07 and up takes more that a qt. Unless you have a 06 Dyna then go to
07 spec.
