The only problem with mine is I keep wanting to buy stuff for it. Other than that no.

Injectors had a recall,might want to look into that.Just had mine replaced. H-D covered the cost.

The early 06 models had issues with the injectors. There was a Service Bulletin.

The only problem I have had with mine was that the stator went out at 20,000 miles. It was repaired under warranty. I also changed over to gear driven cams at 38,000, but that was my choice. The bike now has 74,000 on it and still running strong.
