My wife recently sold her Sporty and is moving up the line. We re looking at a 2006 FI Deluxe with 7500 miles in immaculate condition. Any tips, problems or known history with this year model would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time

06 has better heads then previous years. Check tensioners at ~30k. I'd look for an 07+. Drivetrain will be like your Ultra - 6 speed, 96" and better oil pump and cam tensioners.
