The oil pump drive gear was one of the upgrades on the '07.

How many more miles are you talking about?

An unknown number of 07's have defective cranks, I'd lean to the 06.

"an unknown number of 07s have defective cranks"

has there been any recurrence of this with similar build dates? sorry to hi-jack, just curious as to if its been narrowed down

Darth_buell: whats up with your 04? no longer with you?

I had an '06 and it was a friend who couldn't afford the payments. I hadn't heard of Buell at the time. Rode it for a year making payments. Fell in love but he was to under water. Let Harley take it. In 3 weeks 4 screaming deals have slipped through my finger. Now looking at an '09 with 7000 miles for 5300. got to get it shipped. Will never ride another bike.

If you are looking at something that new might as well find an 1125. You can get roughly 40hp more for the same price.
