Author Message   Jerry_haughton Posted on Wednesday, December 12, 2007 - 05:05 pm:        what U4euh said. i think a 10-amp inline fuse is standard from Widder and Gerbing, possibly maybe "only" a 7.5? hey, at least the fire will keep you warm!   New12r Posted on Thursday, December 13, 2007 - 12:24 pm:        Spike, You got some mail Jlnance , what U4euh said +1000. at least the fire will keep you warm! Yup, the fire inside will burn hot!   Ulywife Posted on Thursday, December 13, 2007 - 05:09 pm:        Spike - e-mail sent regarding MBV.   Rubberdown Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 10:27 am:        I'm riding a loop tomorrow. Headed down to Wilmington via back roads to have lunch with some folks at Hells Kitchen, then go for a ride with them. Afterwards, I'll head over towards Lumberton to meet some folks for dinner at 5:30 at the Texas Steakhouse. Then, I'll take the back roads home. Anybody wanna ride?   Ulyessesman Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 12:48 pm:        hey rubber down, whats up man i'm new in here ,my pops met one of c3's riders on a ride in jacksonville a few weeks ago an he reffered me to you guys im stationed in germany right now but i'll be home at christmas , i just bought a 2008 uly and i have to pick it up from newriver hd on the 31st and i live in richlands if you wanna hook and ride then, that would be great write back and let me know what cha' think   Ulywife Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 01:11 pm:        Ulyssesman - you're not far from us! Let us know when you get in town. I'm sure M2nc (Grifton) and Webethumpin (Kinston) would be up for a ride. Check out the Jacksonville thread up top. When the weather is good they usually ride out on the weekends to Old Maple Hill and hit Hollands Fish Camp for lunch. Welcome to C3 and come home safe!   Rubberdown Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 01:41 pm:        Hi Ulyessesman congratulations on the bike! Yes, let's ride some. These are good folks to ride with here. Have a safe trip home! Mike.   Ulyessesman Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 04:22 pm:        hey,thanks you guys ,i cant wait to ride the uly for the first time i've read and heard much about it i dont care if its -20 degres outside im putting 500 miles on it in 2 days ,gotta get as much time in as possiable gotta be back in germany on the 6th of jan, then to iraq in march ,im lookin forward to riding with all of yall as soon as i can ,oh yea wanna see some god videos of buells? www.youtube/buell.com, burnouts ,wheelies stoppies , you name it they got it , till latter, thank you and keep the shiney side up! and the rubber side down! lol   Ulyessesman Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 04:31 pm:        that was good videos ,sorry   Ulyessesman Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 04:56 pm:        do we have a chat room?   Ulywife Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 05:21 pm:        This is it. BadWeB is the big umbrella with lots of sub sections. Did you find us through Buell.com? If so, it dumped you right into Storm Fronts which is local riding groups and upcoming events. Our daily chatter takes place here on the main page. There are topics up top and folders for Info, Pictures and Adventures. If you don't see something, ask. We'll try and answer it for you. Carolina Corner Carvers (C3) covers all of NC and we have honorary "members" in TN, VA and SC. You will find lots of Uly topics under the Big Bad and Dirty Section. Hope this helps explain a little bit of BadWeB. Best bet is to just look around and explore all sections.   Ulyessesman Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 06:09 pm:        thanx ,its gonna be a blast n here, every one is so nice and helpful! and no i did not hear about u guys through buell, my dad met some one who rides with yall a few weeks ago and they talked i guess and he told my dad to tell me about C3 becouse of me buying the uly and now im here and glad of it , i think my old man said the fella was ridin a uly too ,which ,by the way how is the uly? fast? comfortable? me and my wife are lookin forward to ridng it ,i havent sat on it yet ! its still at new river hd waiting to be picked up well ill post this and hang around a while ,thanks again   Ulyessesman Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 06:12 pm:        oh yea , its 1210am here in gemany 5 hrs ahead of eastern standard time, any ideas how long yall be on here?   Ulywife Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 06:39 pm:        People are on and off all day and night. BadWeB is on eastern time. As for the Uly, we love it. I'm guessing your Dad ran into M2nc or Webethumpin. I ride with M2nc when I can. Our 12 year old daughter rides with him more and we both love the Uly. As for comfort, it's got it going on. I did my first long distance trip last year to the OBX. My long trip holds nothing to Carlos (M2nc) and others who have ridden hundreds of miles in a day. M2nc and Jlnance have 06 Ulys and Webethumpin and Noseed have 07 Ulys. Check out Jlnance, one of our C3er's, here on his Uly. From Raleigh to Seattle WA and the southern route home. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/6817/312289.html?1194140873 C3 has a great group of people. Most are married with mortgages and some have pre-teen children that ride as well. Here is a picture of the last time I went to Jacksonville. Quiet a showing for an very impromptu "lets ride", 7 Buells, 9 Buellers.   Jerry_haughton Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 07:01 pm:        UlyMan, thx for your service, and welcome to BadWeB. FB   Ulyessesman Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 07:01 pm:        hey , is this pc on mhr?   Ulyessesman Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 07:05 pm:        hey jerry u r welcome man , say do you get to ride the dragon very much?   Ulyessesman Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 07:09 pm:        you guys know how hard its gonna be to get me outta here?   Jerry_haughton Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 08:29 pm:        say do you get to ride the dragon very much? i've ridden it a few times over the years. my partner Denise and i recently moved to the East Coast from Cali (today is our one-year anniversary in Virginia), which should make getting down there a little easier. we rode it back in October, but the place was crawling with Tennessee Highway Patrol. takes a lot of the fun out of it, but it's still a beautiful piece of pavement, even doing the speed limit. FB   Ulywife Posted on Friday, December 14, 2007 - 08:45 pm:        UlyMan, thx for your service +1......got so excited about another Bueller close to us I totally forgot my manners! hey , is this pc on mhr? I'm not sure what the little store is/was called, but yes, it's on/at Old Maple Hill Road. I'm sure Carlos and Mark will gladly ride with you while you put some break-in miles on your Uly. Your wife may not let you come back out and play for a while on your next leave!   M2nc Posted on Saturday, December 15, 2007 - 12:03 am:        Hello Ulyman - Welcome and congrats on the new bike. +2 on thanks for your service. We have had several service men here at C3. Webe which is the one in red on the right in the picture above spent a year in Iraq. Southern Marine now moved to the mid-west was also in Iraq a year and designed our C-3 logo while there. So you are in good company. As for the bike - it is one of the funnest motorcycles out there. As far as for comfort, that it has in spades. It is great for both rider and passenger. A combination of best seat in class, long compliant suspenders and comfortable riding position make for one of the most comfortable standard motorcycles out there. I have ridden mine from Ohio to North Carolina for 720 miles in one day. Other than getting sleepy, I could have kept going. Is it fast? Well that depends on your past riding experience. Its faster than any HD with the exception of the V-Rods. Against a V-Rod a Uly is still toe to toe as long as you are going straight. Add a turn and the Uly waves the V-Rod goodbye. If you are coming off I-4 Sport Bike, Ulys do not have the top end rush. They make stump pulling low end torque where 600cc sport bikes are dead. For the street they are perfect because shifting is optional. Ulys will rival those 600cc Sport bikes in the handling department. As for the Dragon, yeah I've ridden on it a few times and off it once. That is where I found out the Uly is also one of the toughest motorcycles out there. Let us know when you are in town and ready to ride.   M2nc Posted on Saturday, December 15, 2007 - 12:08 am:        Mike - Webe and I are planning on riding to the dinner as well. We do not have any plans yet on which route we are going to take, so let me know where you plan to be and maybe we can meet up somewhere along the way. Maybe I can talk Webe into OMHR and then south to meet up with you somewhere. If not we will see you in Lumberton.

Carlos, you 'n me need to go riding sometime, just the two of us...   Bigdaddy Posted on Saturday, December 15, 2007 - 08:48 am:        Carlos, you 'n me need to go riding sometime, just the two of us... Hey,,,,just the three of us,,,I can get a kitchen pass for this event   Reepicheep Posted on Saturday, December 15, 2007 - 09:22 am:        LOL! Last time I was on the dragon, the "fast guys" were on 2 Road Kings and a Victory. The S2, X1, and XB9SX were bringing up the rear.   Jlnance Posted on Saturday, December 15, 2007 - 09:45 am:        Which bike are you bringing Greg?   M2nc Posted on Saturday, December 15, 2007 - 10:14 am:        Carlos, you 'n me need to go riding sometime, just the two of us... Man, I would love that. You have sold me on the ability of an FLH. Hey,,,,just the three of us,,,I can get a kitchen pass for this event G2, Save that pass this time for warmer weather. We already did the cold tire test. Last time I was on the dragon, the "fast guys" were on 2 Road Kings and a Victory. The S2, X1, and XB9SX were bringing up the rear. The last time I showed a pair of HDs what the Uly could do was on the BRP. It did not last very long but Nance enjoyed the show.
