compensating sprocket nut

[militaryrider]

1982 flh 80 cubic inch shovelhead , I must remove the compensating sprocket nut , is this a right or left hand thread ? than k you

Compensator nut is right hand. Usually difficult to remove because people tend to use a lot of loctite. Nut on the clutch hub is left hand.

And the loctite is a good idea. Mike
