OK,

Seeing there is no Buell Retailer on the Island I finally got to ride one this morning.

The HD/Buell Demo truck was here today and I rode it.

Absolutely Amazing is what I can say - I think I'd trade the S1 and S3 for a fully decked out Ulysses.

Like red wine, the more you ride the more you like the ulysses, the more wine you drink the more you head to the reds.

Newfie; if you get a Uly, you'll be thinking about riding to Vancouver.
It would be a piece of cake for someone who can do a 1500 mile day on an S1.
The more I ride mine, the more I like it.
I still think the S3-T was the most beautiful motorcycle ever made, but the Uly is a better motorcycle in almost every other way.

How is it for a passenger?

My S1 is the shits and the S3 isn't really much better.

The only thing I got for a passenger is my old Dnepr MT10-36 but that got a sidecar and don't like much over 50mph on the highway.

Newfie,

My wife picks the Uly over the Road King. Plus with the bags on I don't have to ration her take-along 'stuff.'

I think I m going to have to trade my 9R in on a Uly, why not trade 1 in and keep the other?
