Traded my 05 heritage for the 08 ultra SE last saturday. I was going for the standard ultra, took the wife with me to pick out colors, and she would only settle for the "pretty white and silver one over there". I do love that woman!

Fantastic bike! Fast, smooth, quiet, comfy.

I get a little tranny whine off and on, but nothing to complain about. Sounds almost like a bell ringing.

Even at highway speed, my right leg gets hot. Not scorching, but hot. But then I live in Texas, and it's been low 90's and humid.

Scary part is the throttle started sticking after about 100 miles. When I let go, it sort of drifts back to idle in a couple of seconds.

Headset doesn't work worth sh*^ and you only get one. All that money, you'd think they give you two good headsets.
