2006 Ulysses For Sale

[elfethe]

Hi all, I am selling my 2006 Ulysses. I have had it for almost 10 years and have enjoyed every minute of it. However, my budget is just too tight right now.

This bike has roughly 40,000 miles, includes hard luggage, top & sides.

I recently moved to the east coast, located in Arlington, VA.

Asking $3,500

Dang, I've always loved the yellow one. Too bad you're not on the West Coast.

You should fly to Va, pick up the bike, and have an amazing trip back to CA. The Ulysses would be a great bike for that.


But you have to take a lot of pics and post about your adventure... or we can no longer be friends!

 

[Endopotential]

Don't tempt me!

I'm actually just a wussy fair weather weekend / afternoon road runner, chasing the curves in our hills and coastline here in NorCal. Haven't ever done more than 150 miles in a day. My current toys don't lend themselves well to long distance cruising.

Now if this bike were up in the Pacific NW or even the wilds of Arizona, I'd maybe consider a moto road trip.

I hear ya. It always sounds better on paper or over a couple of beers. Lol

 

[Cooter]

Theres no excuse fellas!

Don't plan, don't even pack. Pick a a place you want to see thats close, but too far to round trip in one day. Ride till you want to stop, eat at a bar, talk to strangers, find a little hotel room, get a good breakfast the next morning, then decide if you want to go home. Yes? Go home. No? Repeat.

:angel:

 

[34nineteen]

I have a whole bag of excuses

 

[Cooter]

Is it that same "bag" you sit on?

 

[optomist]

Come on fellas, I am in the PNW and want to sell my '09 Ulysses. 28,760 on mine. Hard bags, spare belt, new fuel pump and new brake lever--running great, doesn't burn oil, decent Avons trail masters.
we have twisties, rain and all the fun stuff.

Hey Opto, I was just in Seattle / Anacortes / Whidbey and San Juan Islands last week. It's a beautiful corner of the world when it's not grey and freezing.
Good thing I didn't come across your bike, or I would have been sorely tempted! Alas, I have no more space in the garage...

 

[optomist]

Actually Endo, I am over on the Olympia Peninsula. Way less rain in my zone. If you head West from my place you get into the rain forest and that is like 60+inches of rain/year. We are in what is called the Blue Hole.

If you ever get back up here PM me.

Would love to explore that area more. Are you close to Sequim?

One of your neighbors is rebuilding a 100 year old boat by hand. I'm hooked watching that Tally Ho project

BTW, sorry to derail the OP's thread. But as he's never written back to any of our questions, I don't feel so bad.

 

[optomist]

Endo,

Between Sequim and Port Angeles. I am in the boat game also.

What questions have I not replied to? Sorry if I missed anything.

Funny you should mention it. I lived in Oakland until August, I just rode it across. Took 8 days, saw our beautiful country...
