Yesterday morning, on my way to work while waiting for a traffic light, the guy in the car next to me rolls down his window and tells me thats a beautiful bike! I was speechless, Great to see some people can think outside the box.

Buell Ulysses, the "Pug" of motorcycles?

GREAT art work, Pontlee77! An attention grabber for sure. Super well done!

I like the look of Uly's. I 'may' be a 'bit' biased but I think my Uly is a great looking bike, and I don't have enhanced paint work like Pontlee has. Power, speed, agility; they are all exuded by the Uly. : )

truly the pics come from the web the artist is Luis Royo, the work was done in the UK with vinyl on the inside of the air box and fly screen, he did a superbe job as he had to do many tests to make the shape with out making a distorsion on the design.

Seems I run into two or three folks per year that share my appreciation for the unique looks of the Uly. My favorite was the cute parking enforcement cop in her cushman at a stop light downtown. Only downside was having to turn down the offer of digits, I don't think the wife would have approved.

Pontlee, love the art work. Though it might be hard to concentrate on traffic with that image front and center! Hey, what sort of vinyl is that and where do you get it? How does it adhere to the inside of the cover? I have another idea for mine, but it's not artwork. thanks.

well as for what i know is a thin vinyl, as I live in spain and no one was able or interested in doing it I spoke with a shop called The Banner Shop, I asked and they said, they would send it to the UK where they get the banners done, so i don't know who, how and what vinyl he used It cost me around 125$ for both part to be done. Cant help any further.

Good stuff, Froggy!!! Though I'm serious. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, someone once said, : ), and the Uly has it for me. Nice play on words though! : )
