HARLEY COMPENSATOR Noise Repair

TERRIBLE noises coming from my primary a mile from home! Finishing an Iron Butt ride of over 1,000 miles in a single day & I think the heat caused my Compensator to have issues. Likely the Springs. Harley Ultra Ltd 2010. Pulling Clutch in/out & shifting with clutch pulled in gave weird disturbing sounds! Bought a Darkhorse Man 'O War compensator and installed. Harley changed the design of the compensator from my model year forward 3 different times due to serious wear & durability issues. Their official line is that this is a "Wear" part. I'm thinking that if I have to do a $1,000+ repair every 10,000 miles this is unquestionably a design flaw - as evidenced by their series of design improvements.
