This is opinion only. When the 110 debuted, it was a faulty product all of 2007 and early 2008. I think that the first year product may not be a good buy.

For a telecommunications engineer, your communication skills are woefully lacking. What is up with calling other brethren (engineers) "idiots". It certainly doesn't bode well for your engineering skills that you have to slam others in your profession. It just makes you come off as an ***-hat!

As stated earlier, if you don't want a wethead 2014 bike....don't buy one but unless you have something constructive to add to the forum....maybe you should step back and rethink. Jeezus man, never knew that engineers ate their own! Just saying......

I had a 2007 SE Ultra. The factory did a recall and replaced the heads with those designed for the 2009 model, they also did a couple other things. I had that bike from new and it never let me down, NO repairs other than the factory recall and general maintenance. My point: The 2007 110" motors were not "faulty products". My biggest issue was the heat generated and I fixed it with a good tune, new slip-ons and stage one air cleaner kit. I had the bike over 7 great years; until I upgraded to a new 2014 Limited.
