Disaster in my primary

    Everything out of the primary, Pull the clutch apart and wash the plates, and check for scoring. While you at it maybe do the inner bearings and any seals that look like they have been scored etc. Dump the chain and give it wash in petrol/diesel to get all of the crap out of it. Hopefully the main shaft is not scored/damaged but you won't know until you remove everything. The hard part is that the stator bits are magnetic so getting them of the ferrous parts will be the slowest bit.

    Off with the primary drive and clutch, remove the primary case, off with rotor, remove stator if it's still there and re-assess the picture.

    Could be only the primary/clutch is contaminated, you'll find out when you get everything off what else has been modified.

    Good luck.

    sounds like the rotor magnets have come apart  & made a mess, you will have to strip & clean  every thing new rotor & stator & reg as well , strip clutch & clean also

    Mate I would be pulling that whole thing apart, get yourself another magnet to pick up the excess magnetic material that you can find. Rare Earth if you can lay your hands on one. You main Clutch shaft bearing looks full of it as well.

    As a guess your Compensator nut came loose so the rotor could slide on the shaft and wear enough so that the stator housing wobbled on the shaft enough that in the end it caught the stator and bang end result..

    Whatever happened you have a lot of work ahead of you.

    If the nut was tight then maybe once of the windings shat itself causing that sort of damage. Funny, but the same thing happened at work on a generator, and exactly the same result. Nothing was loose eother and we put it down to a magnet on the rotor had come loose from the case as they were only glued in

    it's hard to tell if that splined centre piece your holding is out of & EVBT .the T.C. has a wider spline area than the earlier 1999 T.C. the EVBT spline was only as wide as the rotor itself, the later T.C. has a wider spline boss on the rotor, either that or the magnet's just come loose as they are only glued in place , best to replace the reg as well,

    There is an aftermarket replacement that magnets not glued much stronger. seen them for EVO. & was told they have them for tc.

    Accel used to do a aftermarket stator with a life time warranty, dont know if its still the same now--that was for my evo--cheers Grim

    suggest that you might also have a look at comments by Hilly on the thread called Primary Bearing Failure - he mentioned a few things that might help

    best of luck with the repair

    While you have inner primary case off you might consider getting a workshop that has a press to get your old bearing out and press in the new one that you have already bought. There is a heap of info on the USA HD Forum - some good suggestions - seems to be a major drama with 2006 dynas inner primary bearing http://www.hdforums.com/forum/dyna-glide-models/322821-2nd-failure-of-my-inner-primary-bearing-7.html
    I'm taking the inner primary case out to replace the bearing on my 03 Wide Glide
