RE: any problems with 08 ultra
The only problem I've had with my Ultra originate from this forum; I keep spending money. MeanCity Cycles seat upgrade, heat shields from RJS, HogTunes, IEDs, CeeBaily windshield (this week), Radio Shack siren, and the list goes on. The bike is great. Go ahead, I can't believe you will regret it.

I bought a 08 Ultra w/ABS on 10/10/07 & have 13,500 miles on it.I will be headed for the east coast in a month or so & will put around 8-9K on that trip.It is the best new HD I have owned to date.I did have a fuel pump go bad(cracked/defect) & the bearing in the IDS fail.Otherwise,I love it.Regards,Tom

got my money from bank this morning for a new ULTRA. but now that i am fixing to to get it all the people i know start telling me that ULTRAs are having alot of issues for repair. bad starting , cam chains failure @ 20,000 miles, & FBW probs. Can any one give some insight, or are my friends just jealous because they want instead of their 80 DG's. thanks for any opinions that are out there. It's going to be the Suede blue pearl&black W/ wire wheeels, Damn its PRETTY.

RE: any problems with 08 ultra
When I upgraded last September I had the same concerns and ended up going with a used low milage (2182 miles) 1998 Ultra (last year of the long run of the well spoken of EVO motor.) Not crazy about EFI but so far so good. Not knocken thetwin cam,96inch,6 speed motor just didn't know enough about it to commit large amounts of $$$.
While not state of the art by modern standards it was an upgrade in technology compared to my 1983 FL and I like it alot.
