oh one more thing the rep had the dealer remove my primary and pull the compensator sprocket to see if that was the noise for 6th. I saw someone else thought the sound came from there. But all that was found was new parts and no problem. Now if the compensator was rattling why would it only be 6th gear. Once again smoke up ones butt. I just crossed over 1000 miles and oil in motor has been changed,trans twice and now primary. Wonder if I can skip the 1000 mile check up? not!

ya I know . I'am just feeding the fire. Don't undersell yourself. HD will have to make this right. They cannot make one transmission howl and another don't unless they haven't had their tolerances checked in awhile in the machining of all these gears. I'am not kidding on the demo that can be in 6th under 55 with no rattle. I tried my best to lug it and it wouldn't so go figure. go to your dealers and bitch!

I'm pretty sure most people now realize there are some problem bikes out there that need to be fixed or bought back if they cannot be fixed.
...and you're supposed to shift into 4th at 65....not 60.

The clatter noise I think everyone is hearing may be caused by the exhast bracket that is attached directly to the tranny on 07 touring models. Spoke with a guy who had the problem, he welded o2 bungs in a set of hard chrome t-rex true duals for use on his 07. He claims the noise completely went away and that he cannot recreate it. He still has the 5th whine, but says that it is normal for straight cut gears. I tried today over about 250 miles and I cant get any noise. Good luck guys.....but some of you are lugging the crap out of your engines......no matter what the manual says.
I FOUND IT!!!!!!!!! THE NOISE......... IT IS A HORESHOE!! from a amish buggy,,, trapped underneath hittin the belt and primary,,,, everyone go out and remove your lucky horeshoe,, ,, it made my lottorey #s hit last night! Im worth bazillions,,,,, I gained 37%more HP by no more friction,,and I can cancel letting my buddy weld on my "BUNG"!
....SLAP!!!!!!!!!...{wife---"get off the dang puter, get dressed and take me ridin!!!!}..... yes dear! see ya fellas

Just checked the bracket mentioned above trans and yes mine was somewhat preloaded.Mind you that everything was cold.I will let you know later on today of results.Lugging motors I can agree with but noise is there above lugging and due to air noise the rpms are lowered to hear this better.
