'06 with a 95ci up-grade will run circles around both the '07 & '08's

Not sure what all that white stuff is, but sure looks to be a problem.

Something else to think about!
How to get on a bike...
How to to park a bike in a garage...
How to figure fuel mileage....
...and now which bike is quickest??
I bought mine to relax and ride, too much to think about I guess!!! [sm=WTFsgign.gif]

Let's see: 105 in 2nd gear works out to be 10500 RPM on my '08 Ultra. That would be a pretty good build for sure

Ok, I have an 07 EGC and an 08 RG, the RG seems quicker then the EG, I know the RG is a little lighter, is the RG quicker????

Don't know about the differences compairing EG to RG, but a friend brought his '08 RG to Bike Week. On our way to Rossmeyers we did a little head to head roll on. He walked away from me! The good news is that I was on his '08, & he was on my '07! I was tryin' out his IDS, & he was tryin' out my handlebars. The major difference was my PC-III, he didn't have one.

We installed WG bars on his bike the next day, & he ordered a PC-III from Jamie as soon as he got home. Now if someone just made fat grips to work with that silly *** "fly by wire"....

Black is the fastest but black with flames is fasssssster

OK, for the last time

105th Copper Top color is the fastest color due to the added power of the Copper Top. Who ever has the official rule book for the Unofficial HDForum, please make the notation for me please.

Thanks and GO SPRING!!

Now I don't know who to believe. My dealer told me that the '08 White bikes were the fastest stock bikes ever. I guess I was lucky that he only had the white '08 EGC on the floor.

Now you guys tell me tht the Black '07 is faster. Do I have to trade down now?

My dealer promised me that the blue and white Ultra on the floor (a stock 96") wouold HONESTLY put 99 HP at the wheel and top 145 mph in 6th at 4,000 RPM.

Now that is what I am gonna but...and add some cool foxtails to the antennas (wind tunnel tested tails, of course!)

Dealer lied!
