I've got an '07 Uly that I recently purchased and am still getting used to/figuring out. The other day, I decided to try going up a rough road that heads into a great little lake. I've actually taken my lowered softail up there a few times. Now it's awkward, manuevering the softail around the pot-holes, especially going up and down the steep hill sections. The Uly should be a breeze, right? WRONG! Ist gear is just to high! Going up the hill I stalled 'cause it couldn't chug slow enough. Coming back down hill, Very stressfull dragging the rear and feathering the front brake! I'd like to use this bike for these kinds of roads as well as the paved, that's what it's supposed to be for, no? Anyone else find this issue? What to do? Cheers.

hmm, just hit the throttle until your tire starts spinning, as long as you're going forward, you're good lol. But on a serious note, the breather re-route should fix your problem. It can be found here. Hope that helps.

Thanks. I did the re-route and adjusted the idle to as low as possible. Will see now if that's the answer.
