Default 07 Fatboy love it

I bought an 07 Fatboy in 2011..... I ride it every day, the only issues I have had was I had to park it for an extended period of time and the old fuel ate the fuel pump. The wheels will catch air like a Frisbee but I love it......

I understand some have had problems (tire wear, uneven tracking) and others have had none. I'm kind of liking the 07 as it was the first year of the redesign but I'm also including models as old as 2000 in my search.

Thoughts from Fatboy owners?

thanks in advance folks - ride safe
