[sm=WTFsgign.gif]Man, I sure see a lot of complaints on the 07s and now 08s. If this keeps up there will be a lot of inventory to choose from in a few months.

Damn...My '07 RG(4000 mi) engine is clean as a wistle(ok some bug guts),no whine in 5th,no biggie on the heat deal,normal motor noises..same ones as in my '99 RKC ...hopefully it stays that way.
Me too, 07 EG no problems whatsoever. A fine machine.

One tip I'll give you guys - DO NOT OVERFILL the tranny - even by an ounce or two. I've found that my bike has this same seepage and a small drip under it if I put more than 22 ounces in the tranny. Once I went from 24 to 22 ounces no more leak. I'd had the tranny/shaft seal replaced thinking it was worn but still leaked. Had them redo it and it still leaked. Then I reduced the amount of tranny oil (still on the dipstick properly) and now no more leak/drip...

Just my experience.

I came VERY close to buying a new '07 RKC...glad I went with a used '06 instead (thanks, HDForums!)

Even though I have an '06, I am thinking maybe an extended warranty is in order...is this something I can get??
