    Misfire at cruising speeds

    I got in there to clean up the grounds under the airbox and I found a bare spot on the head temp sensor wire. Hopefully, that was the issue.

    My new camping rig

    Since the wheel bearing thing seems to be caused by too much tension, I wonder if one of these might help... https://www.freespiritsparts.com/en/buell-xb-belt-tensioner-black.html I know it isn't for the Ulysses, but maybe they could make one that fits. Someone on a Ulysses facebook group...

    My new camping rig

    The whole thing, fully loaded is like 100lbs. I have done a lot of motorcycle camping trips and most of the time, I don't want or need anything aside from what fits in my bags. But when you are gone for a week or more, a few creature comforts are really nice to have. I also don't have to...

    My new camping rig

    This was the process to make it fit the Buell. I think it was originally made for an XR650 or something. It uses a rod through the hollow axle, but the main weight is handled by the bushings on both sides. They fit just into the recess of the axle and don't move around at all once tightened...

    My new camping rig

    I like to go motorcycle camping. I usually do at least 1 trip per year with friends. Some of them don't have good luggage and my wife doesn't have good luggage either (she hates a top box). Sometimes, we have stiff stacked in crazy or uncomfortable ways. I wanted to make it more comfortable...

    Misfire at cruising speeds

    Thanks for the tips. I have been cleaning grounds and I cleaned the connection for the CPS. Cleaned all of the battery connections. This evening, I'll jump into the key switch relay and double check the fuse box terminals. Biggest problem now is that I have to take it for a long freeway ride...

    Misfire at cruising speeds

    2006 Ulysses Recently I went on a trip that was over 300 miles each way. On the way there, I had the bike misfire for a few seconds and I let off the gas and got back on it and I had no other issues that day. I chalked it up to bad gas. On the way back, it started doing it again, closer to...

    How to remove your xbr motor

    I know this is an old post but this is great! I just used this guide to do a top end on the Ulysses. Great write-up! I bought one of those exhaust stud kits (not the one from above) and it didn't fit right. I had to pull the frame off just to get a straight shot at the stud because it was the...

    About to rotate the engine, anything else I should do?

    https://alloyboltz.com/product/polished-grade-8-stainless-harley-exhaust-stud-kit-4/ Says grade 8. I know it seems like overkill, but I want stainless so it doesn't rust all to hell and I don't know that I should trust the $10 set from Amazon. I already ordered the o2 sensor. When I was doing...

    About to rotate the engine, anything else I should do?

    Alright. Found the bosch O2 sensor is #12014 and is less than $20. I'll replace the intake seals and the plugs/wires while I have it all apart. Thanks for the help.

    About to rotate the engine, anything else I should do?

    I have an 06 with 33k miles on it. She has a broken exhaust stud on the rear cylinder and I need to rotate the engine to fix it. I'm putting in new grade 8 stainless studs (w/ anti-seize) and new header gaskets. Otherwise, she's a good running bike. No oil leaks or anything. For the last...

    Taller front tire?

    Someone posted a video on one of the facebook Buell Ulysses groups about using a 120/90/17 (Shinko 705) instead of the 120/70/17 that is standard. The 90 gives you 24mm more sidewall so basically it turns the 17 into more of a 19 front. My question is... has anyone actually done this? If so...
