RE: 2 Questions about '07 Ultra
yes, there is a gear whine in 5th gear. it is not horrendous, it is not a problem, and it is not the end of the world. now, there are a few bikes out there that have more than the normal noise. but it is very few. personally, i like it. lets me know if i'm in 5th, the light lets me know i'm in 6th, and i can tell by the rpm of the engine if i'm in 4th....
i would recommend at least getting some sort of fuel management system. without it, it is hot. make your ***** sweat hot.... i ran a pciii from fuelmoto with a stock map for several weeks before getting v&h true duals, and screamin eagle ac. with just the pciii, a lot of the heat was alleviated.
be prepared to get some new toothpaste to clean all them bugs out of your teeth, you will be grinning a lot.

Mine has a rattle in fifth gearand sixth,no whine that I can hear but i'm getting use to it (8500 miles)
If you can stand the heat from the crossover you don't have to do a thing except smile.I have a russell daylong seat,wife didn't like her part of the stock one,I thought it was pretty good.

RE: 2 Questions about '07 Ultra
1) Thought gear sound was part of the HD experience til read posts on this forum. I like.
2) added synth oil,4k miles,and premium oil cooler .something made it cool way down. will think about exhost,air,fuel ..later...?
Just bought a new computer cause old one is 5&1/2 years old. well while its still in the box the place I bought it from replaced it with a better one. In 2 days!!! this about made me s**t!! Took a deep breath and eventually calmed down. because this always happens and is a fact of life.
...It stillway better thenmy old one

RE: 2 Questions about '07 Ultra
yeah, electronics technology advances at such a rapid pace that the computer you are thinking about buying next month is already obsolete. i would think though, that after only 2 days, you could take it back and exchange it? depends on where you bought it.

RE: 2 Questions about '07 Ultra
skratch-Well I was smart enough from getting burned with technology over the years that I kept A lid on the cost(did not spend much) for this reason andthought about bringing it back but they have a 15% restocking fee. Like you said ..next month..same thing
