I was on th HD website today and saw that are listing an isolated drive system fix that apparently is standard on 08 models to retro fit 07 models. The part # is 40287-07 with a list price of $305.00 , I been reading a lot about 07's and wondering if this would help?










Isolated DriveSystem Sprocket Kit

Introduced on the '08 Touring models, the Isolated Drive System improves rider comfort and ride quality by dampening the mechanical noise and vibration caused by the engine's torque pulses. The rubber compensation elements in the sprocket act like a cushion, absorbing the power pulses from the engine. With the IDS installed, the motorcycle feels more refined, and is quieter while accelerating, shifting and cruising. Kit includes sprocket, compensator bowl, and installation hardware.

don't mean to be a jerk, but what "vibration" are you referring too? I believe the general consensus is this is for the clatter issue that some experience on the 07.

Need to fix your post btw, that's a doozy!!!

 

Yeah sorry about that , hope thats better . I've read complaints about clatter , whine , andvibration , according to the description it looks like it might address 2 out of 3 , just saw it on the web sight ,
justtrying to be helpful.

 

this ids has "cured " clatter on the 07's read others post about it and they are really liking it.
its the paying for it that sucks

 

IDS will only help if you have clatter, whine will still be there and it will not help end a vibration.

 

Interesting that HD finally "caught on" to this NEW device that metric bikes have used since the 60's - LOL.

 

I hate to sound like a jerk but hey Ted? If your going to do some Harley bashing how about doing it on the Gold Wing site! Jeeezzz![&o]
