In the "gallery" on the Buell website, the orange Uly has orange aft of the seat.

But the blue and black Uly's do not carry the bodywork color aft of the seat.

What am I missing?

The only bike with a color seat that you can't match to any of the others is the orange.

There is a reason it comes in "short bus" coloration.

Strange...I didn't realize it's the seat itself that's colored.

Thanx.

After seeing how great Maximum's red Uly looks done up, I'm surprised that the factory didn't do it on the blue like they did on the orange.

My black is already factory color-matched !

after coming out with the ugly orange colored seat, they decided to make them look more like a normal motorcycle's seat!
Black!

I've never ridden behind an orange colored Uly before must be they aren't fast enough to keep up!

the day I purchased my Ulysses, they had both a black one and a orange one to choose from. The salesman asked me which one I wanted, I just laughed and he knew, he didn't have to ask anymore! He then had the beautiful black one taken back to have it washed. I wanted a motorcycle, not a school bus! lol

Orange = School Bus = Schools = Knowledge & Enlightenment.
Black = Hearse = Graveyard = Dead!

Am I the only one that sees the color as yellow? We all know what yellow is associated with. No, not urine...but now that I mention it...

When I bought my Uly, the dealer had both a black and a orange on the floor. The salesman asked me which one I wanted and I said "whichever one goes faster". Needless to say, that orange one is still on the floor rotting away, eventually it will turn grey from all the dust collecting on it and then someone will buy it and realize their mistake when they wash it off : )
