Author Message   2_spuds Posted on Saturday, October 08, 2005 - 09:03 am:        I had the seat off the uly getting familiar things and I found the corner of the rocker box was making contact with the plastic seat pan. A little nip with a grinder on the seat pan took care of it. You may want to check yours for clearance.   Dave Posted on Saturday, October 08, 2005 - 10:04 am:        Like this? Mine has about 200 miles on it. My plan as well. DAve   Eor Posted on Sunday, October 09, 2005 - 01:36 am:        I think they all do that.   Aeholton Posted on Sunday, October 09, 2005 - 08:25 pm:        Yeah, mine rubs there. I just thought it was because I'm a fat guy.   Lowflyer Posted on Monday, October 10, 2005 - 09:32 pm:        This is very disappointing. I thought mine was the only one with that rub. Until now, I thought it added character. Now it's just like yours.   Jim_sb Posted on Monday, October 10, 2005 - 10:23 pm:        Same here guys. And I can testify that Madduck's has it too. Saw it first hand. I was going to simply use a half-round file to touch it up. Regards, Jim in Santa Barbara   Chadhargis Posted on Tuesday, October 11, 2005 - 10:51 am:        Judging by the photo above, it doesn't seem to be anything major. What is the downside to the seat rubbing other than it will eventually wear away enough that it doesn't rub anymore.   Dave Posted on Tuesday, October 11, 2005 - 06:34 pm:        Just remember...that was about 200 miles. I took a dremel/grinder to the seat and took some material off. I kept at it till chalk on the rocker cover diddn't show on the seat pan. DAve   V2win Posted on Wednesday, October 12, 2005 - 07:34 am:        DAve, Just ran across this thread. You still have your S2 and S3T? How you like'n this new bike? JOhn   Dave Posted on Wednesday, October 12, 2005 - 09:06 pm:        Yo JOhn! Yeah man I still have the S2 and S3. I've been spending lots of time on this new Uly and really like the ride. (Keep in mind that I liked the Tiger too) The Uly isn't top heavy like the Tiger and is very agile in comparison. I enjoy the 1200cc V-twin though I never really cared for the 955i triple. As far as comfort...the Uly wins as well. Bags haven;t arrived yet but folks are in motion. DAve   V2win Posted on Wednesday, October 12, 2005 - 09:15 pm:        Bob and I are going to be about 400 miles east of you this weekend. Riding down Friday and coming back on Monday. Staying at the Anglers White River Resort near Mountain View Arkansas. Ride on over and say hi. John   Dave Posted on Thursday, October 20, 2005 - 08:32 pm:        Follow up to the seat rubbing the rear rocker cover. At 2200 + miles it's still doing it after taking off some seat material with a grinder. It appears to just be one of those things. JOhn...I took the new bike up to Chicago this last weekend to visit my son. He's a freshman at UIC. This Uly really works for me. The NUked Demon S3 may be up for sale in short order. DAve
