Thumbs up

Only problem I have had with my 08 Ultra was the rear brake would squek the last several feet before I came to a compleat stop with only 2000 miles on her.

I had to waite several months last year until the dealer received the required parts from the factory as they were other 08 owners also complaining about the rear brake problem.

After winter, the repairs/parts the dealer had to install, stopped the squeks and I now have just over 7600 miles so far this summer without any rear brake noise.

I did have a terrible squeaking, squawking noise coming from the back. Got a divorce, now the noise is gone. Shiney side up rubber side down!
