Default heat

Welcome to the club. I went from a 2004 Yamaha Road Star (with little heat) to a 2006 Harley ultra. I was disapointed in the lack of power and the heat. I do enjoy the ride and handling of the HD! I use NO MORE FRIED THIGHS to help with the heat. They have several combinations to chose from. I get a lot of compliments on mine. You can find a link to NMFT in the forum area.
