    Thats kinda what I was understanding cooter from other posts by members, clean all the surfaces connect them then apply the protective coating to preserve the connection from water, air, or other contaminates now its just a matter of setting aside a day or two to make sure its done properly as I...

    I will keep that in mind once I find out how bad the corrosion or overspray of coatings is elsewhere in the grounding pathways

    Yup, I had done the same prior to trying the grounding mods to isolate exactly where the grounding issue were as there are multiple on the uly i have. and so far all indicators are to the tail section grounding as the other electrical issues of headlights burning out of fluctuating in brightness...

    Yup, that seems to be the common indicator of all the performance issues I've encountered in the short ownership I've been experiencing. By using the modifications/testing procedures others have posted or shared all performance issues disappear and the bike returns to factory or better.

    New update in tracing down the no start issues and bad grounding. No i didn't expend a lot of time resurfacing and prepping the tail frame components yet many other post indicate that is the source of many uly electrical oddities. So the other day I invested in a auto-zone version of other...

    yup, under 15k miles yet 12 years old, also realizing how finding a good ground when everything frame wise contains a semi flammable liquid is different from traditional motorcycles as I am learning from others experiences with buell motorcycles. Thank you for the :encouragement: I am almost to...

    I up loaded a quick photo/s, Still working out sort of. I think I may have run across why the previous owner/s, as I am the third now, installed auxiliary lights. I had a burnt out highbeam bulb and replaced it with a new one all good and since I had the time I installed the missing smaller...

    Prior to doing more long distances away from home and the higher heat of summer I am looking into that also.. I have had other HD batteries last for 4 to 5 years and never had a cranking only issue. The current battery is doing ok yet like you said others do better. The Buell bump I have not...

    I noticed that after doing the tps reset how the Buell efi operates differently than the MMI Harley efi system I am more used to as a late model rider vs a warranty assurance rider. Buell efi manages warm ups at more of a constant set rpm where the MMI utilizes a high and low rpm configuration...

    I had the local battery store load test the battery and all was ok there. I cleaned all the ground connections including the one mentioned. I also relocated the battery ground as it seemed odd that it was trying to ground thru the battery box and not directly to the frame(battery ground to...

    Hello everyone, I just recently came into ownership of a 08' uly and really enjoy the bike. The previous owner had installed auxiliary LED lights that mounted under the headlights and a Nautilus horn. I've had troubles with bad voltage drops causing no start issues. hoping its just the...
