Glad to hear you got the Full Monty, Blue. Keep us informed on how she holds up. Mine is still great after my Full Monty.

i have a 06 fxdci that the IPB went out at 12,000 miles, making so much noise was afraid to ride out of town to local dealer, went to a local shop that has been working on HD bikes for 20+ years asked him to take a look thought it might be the chain tensioner....nope it was the IPB.i called the dealership they told me that they have not heard of any IPB problems but would be glad to take a look at it for a fee of course since my warrenty was out.i told the local shop to go ahead and fix since they had it apart anyway plus the labor is cheaper.found the IPB info on this forum decided to call HD .HD said have not heard of many problems on the IPB asked for my serial # guess my build number is in the date range just before the sent those care program letters out saying that the IPB are ok now,never got any letter on anything.so the lady tells me for them to concider fixing it i had to take it to a HD dealership,even then no promises to pay for repair.even if i took to a certified tech it would still have to go to a dealer.i told her of this info i found that if the IPB goes completely then the rear wheel locks up and i am toast.so i get the sorry nothing we can do now that someone else has worked on it.i get a ticket number of my call thats all.432.00 dollars later its all fixed now. i am going to send HD the trashed bearing and the bill....will see what happens.all these bearings should have been recalled and fixed...i only hope no one gets hurt .

Not heard of many problems, my a$$!! Sounds like you may be past help ($$$-wise) at this point. Anyone else reading this, call HD Cust.Svc. before you have the dealer do any work. Ask them to honor the terms of the pink letter; it's an admission of an '06 IPB problem.
