Can't complain but only have 1,000 on her now. It does become a pain doing a cop to civilian conversion but overall, she's everything I asked for and thensome

When I took mine in for 1000 mile service engine was knocking. Picked it up a week later with new engine.

At about 15K the rear O2 sensor burned up and sent a code, warranty repair no hassle. 22K now and no problems, love the bike.

Not too shabby. So far, over 97% of us haven't paid a dime for repairs to our '07s. Mine was an added HD part but the dealer comped the repair even though it wasn't a warranted stock part, one owner needed to have his added IDS repaired too but was charged, and 1 other owner needed to repair an after-market non-HD type problem.

Fantastic bike. I bought my ultra new in Sept of 06. The only thing I have done is change the fluids and replace a rear tire. 15,000 + miles and 0 problems. The 09's look nice with the frame and rear wheel changes, but their is nothing there worth trading for IMO. My 07 runs so good it would be hard to part with.

Default Part Fell Off
The passenger floorboard and mount on the right hand side fell off the bike. The mounting bolt broke off for some reason. Unfortunately I was not aware that it went missing and now believe that it is OTS (out there somewhere) on its own journey of discovery. And yes the guys I ride with still make fun of the fact that the bike has lived up to the true HD tradition by having parts rattle off the bike along life's highway.
Other than that, the bike is one of the best I have ever owned and rode.
