And buy the proper genuine H.D. shop manual for it.

Why is that? Is it more specific?

Default Deceleration Squeal

I just solved my squeal on my 2011 Roadglide Ultra. I thought it was in my primary,but it was not. Turns out my drive belt was loose, but I really think it was coming from the rubber of my muffler hanger. They tend to harden over time. Got both of them replaced and I'm squeak free now

That's very nice.
I'm glad you fixed your problem.
Not real sure why you decided to resurrect a 4 year old thread to express your happiness.

You might want to tell others in the Touring section of your success as it might help one of them on their newer bikes.
