RE: Is anybody happy with thier 07 Ultra
New to this forum, it is great. I got my 07 Ultra 2 weeks ago and I love it. This is my 5th Harley (2 Sportsters, a 03 Low Rider and a 03 Dyna). The only complaint I have is the heat from the rear cylinder, it fries my right thigh. I guess I got lucky, my neutral light doesn't flash and the only odd noise I get from 5th gear seems to be related to rpm, like someone else said if I keep it above 2200 RPM it sounds fine. It certainly rides alot different, the light clutch took some getting used to and to be honest I didn't like the feel at first, but now I wouldn't have it any other way. I would buy it again in a heartbeat.

RE: Is anybody happy with thier 07 Ultra
I love mine. Less top end engine noise and tranny noise than any harley I have ever owned. Talk about torque, granted I have the 110 engine, but it is a monster. You can ride in 6th w/o any lugging down to 50 mph. If in 6th doing 60 mph you can quickly accerate to insane speeds with just the twist of the throttle. The almost non existant slop in the shifting is a little hard to get used to, but that old harley ker-klunk that I love remains. My 07 kicks butt. I ignored any nay syaing to get what I wanted. I am glad I did because my 07 kicks butt. Cant wait till my cuz wants to gas on that goldwing.....I think I got something for him. Did I mention my 07 kicks butt?

RE: DoCPoof
I'm beggining to wonder................. I started this thread, after putting up with "the noises" for a couple of weeks, to find out if maybe it was just my bike or a general problem. I concluded that there are quite a few peeps that have my same prob.,,,, after many calls to the MOCO by everyone,,, all of o sudden, this thread tittled "07 tranny probs",,,, is now filled with my bike is great, bla bla,bla,,,,makes me believe, the MOCO's answer is to " get on the forums, and shut us whiners up!" soooooo,,, if you that are happy, why would you even come to a forum tittled PROBLEMS???? , maybe I'll start a thread tittled "I'm so happy I peed meself," and you could leave this site , and let us continue our own discussion!, by the way, I wouldnt even be here if my bike sounds like the way most of yours are being described,,, I just wish i could swap for a few miles with someone not complaining yet!

I thought the title of the topic was "Is anybody happy....."?? Not "only post here if you hate your bike." So this to me means that "happy" and "Not happy" people should post. Just my observation
