Default Help Please...Used 2008 SE Inspection suggestions

I am in search ofa 2008 SE Ultrabut not rushing. With my job I travel quite a bit and have not ruled out the possibility of purchasing a used one. If a used one presents itself , what should Ilook (inspect) for past the normal common sense things? Is it the front, rear or both jugs that leak. Should I shy away from ones that were produced earlier in this model year production cycle, etc.? Thanks in advance for any suggestions!!!!

http://www.cvoharley.com/smf/index.p...ic=17469.0;all There's a couple pics in this thread of what you can look for on the rear cylinder for oil leak. I'm still waiting on a revised gasket to remedy this problem. It is the only thing I've heard of that has gone wrong on the 08's. If you have any other questions PM me.

Two words.......EXTENDED WARRANTY

Most '08 models will not have enough miles to be a problem.
