I rode my new 07 heritage home today, Even slight aggresive riding causes a scrape.

And it wouldn't surprise me that the dealers never tell the new owner it can be adjusted.. They'd rather just sell them $500 shocks later to correct it after the familiar OEM shock squeak appears. That's another thing the old bike did NOT do with the aftermarkets.. All the new softails I've seen with more than a couple thousand miles will creak and squeak in the rear end when you sit on them.
