IDS is an option that a lot of owners went to in 07. I did not install one and it runs well. I vote for the 07.

What is run out on the crank?

Go with the 06. Less heat, same stock hp, 6th gear is mostly useless on 07's and 08's. Ask a really good HD indy and see what he says! Every mechanic i've asked said if they were tryin to build hp dollar for dollar they had rather start with 88ci. My 88 with less than a grand spent on the motor will out perform a stock 103.

I would go with the 07 then you could upgrade to a 120r they wont work in the 06 chassis.
