Yeah, I know the bikes have their quirks and whatnot. Doesn't hurt my feelings any. I will try to post pics when I get a chance. Thanks for the advice/support, etc. everybody. |

Pizat I have had a few problems, they frustrate. I had the #77 plug go out and leave me stranded. Then I had the (if memorry serves correctly ) #46 plug go out.Also the day before my annual 2 week motorcycle trip my left fron folk seal started to leak (took my wifes Wee Strom, not as much fun as the Uly but adequate). Preventive maint. that I did: got the 2nd iteration belt, followed ideas from this forum and rerouted or moved some of the wireing, last tire change swapped out to black seal bearings from orange, and will go to new wheel next tire change, went into fuel pump (very easy if you remember to remove the upper rear shock bolt also easy)and did the simple fix on the wires in there to prevent short. Each time I have a minor problem I think I need to sell the bike and get something better, but once I get it fixed (which is usually very easy) I realize that this is the most fun and probably the best bike I have ever had and worth all the little irritations. Enjoy your new bike. And also enjoy the sense of achievment and accomplishement which you will you will experience with many of these simple repairs. |

Well here she is, just got home with the Uly. Even got to ride home in some bad weather, not raining but cold and windy as F. Not much to see or talk about at this point, the thing is like brand new.
I was going to post a couple of pictures but it wasn't working for some reason. Anyway, bike is Barricade Orange and the odo reads 559. You get the picture. |
