Re: My Buell Ulysses

Mr P has a Uly. Loves it.

Admittedly he spends most of his time re-setting the TPS. He sold his Honda to buy his first buell 4 years ago and has never looked back. He wanted something "fun to ride with more character" - character means many hours of swearing in the garage and worrying about this and that after every couple of hundred miles.

Give me my Honda anyday!

it does look lovely though...

Re: My Buell Ulysses

I'll try and pursuade him to bring it to the National at Dartmoor Chad.
I'm sure he'll let you have a go.

That's what put me off, even the demo bike I took out already had a broken clutch cable restraint! I would be worrying about it all the time, and I need the bike to travel to work on every day, so it has to be very reliable, winter and summer.

And I found the Buell cooked my leg in slow traffic.

Shame though, as it was one of the most fun bike I've ever ridden.

Re: My Buell Ulysses

If the wife makes me do a one bike family, I will get rid of the Tenere and Buell X-1 and go down the uly path..... I have the ECMSPY lead to remap the ECU as well ......

Tell him, my TPS works fine! The Buell X-1 is the best Buell made to date, you only have to ask Maz at the emporium.....
