Default New to Harley

Put an order in for a 07 Ultra Classic Electra Glide. After riding Goldwings I thought I should switch to a real bike. What can I expect in performance with the 07 model? And is there any info yet on mufflers, aircleaner, and power commander?

Some say it feels more powerful, others w/pipe mods say about the same after doing that to the 88 (and not the 96). Dunno about the performance parts avail. That should be soon if it is not now.
