Over the weekend at St. Paul Harley/Buell I noticed the newest Ulysses' on the floor have a dimpled chin fairing on them. My early 06' just has a smooth lower part of the fairing where my front wheel contacts it once in a while, as I have some rubber marks there. Was this change made to compensate for the tire rub? It appears that is why it is dimpled. Is there an update for the early bikes? Anyone else notice this???? | ||

It's the new Kirk Douglas/Spartucus edition. | ||

Great another new model name! But that is exactly what it looks like, now that you mentioned it. | ||

Anyone else notice this? Will the new dimpled piece take care of the tire rubbing problem? | ||

I saw it with my own eyes. The possibility of rubbing in the future would be purely speculative and conjectural at this juncture. | ||

Just looked at a newly arrived Uly: Kirk Douglas Sparticus Edition. Dimple present as reported. The Buell Elves are looking at the posts here!! | ||

It's been a known issue for quite some time, and was told that there was a fix in the works. I have personally not seen the new fairing (unless I missed it on one of ours) I'll look tomorrow. | ||

I just contacted my chin fairing w/ the tire today, I'm not saying it wasn't fun, just unexpected, even with the posts I've read, "it won't happen to me". Perhaps the Factory could offer a dimpled carbon fiber replacement???? | ||

Yes, I hope they offer up a replacement for the early bikes. Mine has contacted it numerous times. |
