Was changing all the oils today on my 08 FLHT and noticed a pretty big metal sliver on the Primary oil plug. There was only one sliver. Bike has 15k, no abnormal noises. Should I be concerned?
I get a sliver now and then too. I think they come from the compensator.
Yep, compensator would be my guess also. Mine started making noise at about 10K miles so I swapped out to a SE comp. Now at 25k miles and no more noise and no more slivers when I change primary fluid.
