3200 miles since July and zero problems. Go for it!

 

Why wait? 08's could have a significant change and open a whole new can of worms. Worse yet, they could discontinue the model you want.

 

I have been reading through the treads, and appreciate all the replies; it seems to me that there are hardly any issues with the new 6-speed trannys in the Fatboys.

So my question is: Is the tranny in the 2007 Classic Ultra, which seems to be having the most problems different than what’s in the 2007 Fatboy? Are they not both the same new 6-speed tranny?[sm=confused06.gif]

Thanks

 

4500 miles since Aug and no problems, no noise, no heat! 07 Deuce runs great with new pipes, air and SERT w/o Dyno. Don't put it off, enjoy now, BEFORE that piece of plaque comes loose in your artery and slams into that heart valve !!!

 

Thank you.
Yup, BadAzz did it for me in the Photoshop thread. I really like what he did.

 

Same transmission in both models. The baggers have the fairings/windshields and some have the lower air deflectors, this directs more noise up to the rider. I have not read of any 2007 non bagger model that complained of the rocks in the coffee can sound.
I have read where some of the owners say the noise only shows up once the bike is fully warmed up and it is a warmer day. So if you take a short test ride on a bagger when it is not very warm outside the noise will not occur.

I have had no problems at all. I don't know what these people are talking about. No heat issues, tranny noise or shifting issues at all. The steering is balanced and very responsive. And this is coming from a Honda Race bike.
