I BOUGHT A 2007 ELECTRA GLIDE ULTRA BY HARLEY DAVIDSON ON SEPT. 8, 2006. I RETURNED THE BIKE ON SEPT. 9, 2006 SAYING IN WAS MAKING TO MUCH NOISE. THEY RODE IT AND SAID IT NEEDED TO BE BROKE IN, AND PUT 1/2 QUART OF TRANSMISSION FLUID IN. I RODE THE BIKE 500 MILES AND RETURNED THE BIKE ON SEPT. 12, 2006 STATING THAT THE PRIMARY SOUNDED LIKE A CAN FULL OF ROCKS, THE 5TH GEAR IN THE TRANSMISSION WHINED SO BAD IT SOUNDED LIKE AN AMBULANCE, AND THE VALVES WERE RATTLING SO BAD THAT YOU COULD NOT HEAR YOURSELF THINK, AND THE EXHAUST PIPES HAD ALREADY TURNED BLUE. THEY KEPT THE BIKE FOR THE NEXT 18 DAYS DURING WHICH A REP. FROM HARLEY DAVIDSON CAME BY TO RIDE THE BIKE(9-21-07). I RODE HIS BIKE AND HE RODE MINE AND AFTER THE RIDE HE ADMITTED THE BIKE HAD NOISES AND THAT THE MOTOR COMPANY KNEW THIS AND FOR ME TO WAIT UNTIL THEY FOUND A FIX. HIS BIKE WAS QUIET AS A MOUSE. ON SEPT. 29, 2006 I PICKED UP BIKE, AND AM STILL HAVING ALL LOUD NOISES, AND THEY TOLD ME JUST TO RIDE IT AT HIGHER RPM'S. THIS BIKE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED OR MY 22K GIVEN BACK. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP. *NM
