RE: more hot 07 ultra
Bought my 07 Ultra in December of 06. Even through the winter months I could not stand the heat so I did some research on how to cool it down. The only thing I've done to my otherwise stock Ultra is install a Power Commander III and it now generates much less engine temps and runs way better to boot. Cost: about $350.00 . . . well worth the money.

RE: more hot 07 ultra
Have a 07 Ultra in San Diego. Oil cooler did not help with the heat but did drop overall temp on oil at least20 degrees. Frigging jug temps were running in the 300-350 degree rangeafter a freeway ride at speed, this was measured with infared temp gauge. In stop and go traffic it was just unbareable. Installed Bub 7's, K&N and T-Max, temps have dropped to 240-290 range. Still warm butI can live with it. Performance and soundare aboultely awesome.Did the cheap thing and bought the parts online, installed myself. Wasn't diffcult.K&N kit from FOX performance$112, T-Max from Eastern for about $725, BUB 7'S Ebay $625. These were delivered without tax. In parts and labor proably saved about a grand.

Thanks to all who replied, That sounds just about right dollar wise for what I had planned. When I picked up the bike I asked a service tech at the dealership about getting an oil cooler and he didn't recommend it for Michigan said it made it harder to get the oil out on changes. But as hot as it runs I'm inclined to go with one. Any recommendations on what cooler to use?

Don't worry about getting all the oil out of it at oil change time- only a few oz remain in the cooler so it hardly matters.
