Hello,

I just picked up a new to me 2007 Ulysses. It is great but has one small issue. There is a vibration in the fairing area that sounds pretty loud until the motor gets past 3000 rpm. Anyone have any feedback, solutions?
It would be nice to have this sorted out.
Thanks,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

It is the horn vibrating into the flyscreen.

Remove the Flyscreen (6 screws) and "adjust" the horn to provide a little more clearance for some vibration from that unbalanced 45 degree V Twin.

Happy Trails.

I put double sided foam tape between my horn and fly screen

I just bent the crap out of mine to get clearance. It later broke the strap so I replaced it flipping it around to where it no longer touches.

Great, thanks for the input guys. I will correct it today.
Other than this small issue this thing is pretty cool so far!
