Default It's Excessive!

I have an '07 Super Ultra Highway Glide Classic that has excessive heat from the engine. It has this excessive vibration and when I ride I get excessive wind. I think the price is excessive but I paid it anyway. I have to maintain it too, so when I change the oil or fill it up, I have to pay even more money. Excessive!

Please give me your excessive opinion.

Signed,

-Excessive Obsessive

Excessive heat and vibes, you can always get a Gold Wing and have the optional air conditioning installed.
