I'm considering a Ulysses, but I will be using it in Arizona's 120+ degree summer weather.

Any experience with the Ulysses in hot weather (100+). How is performance? Are there any issues such as engine pinging, overheating of rear cylinder, or too hot on rider's legs, etc? Other riders comment on heat from the engine on their legs while riding.

We don't have 120 degree days here in FL, but it gets pretty hot. Right leg gets pretty warm but not unbearable.

Wrap those headers!
It makes quite a difference to me here in Atlanta, on my XB9S.

you should redirect this question to the arizona thread in the storm fronts.
I know in all my years in Phoenix, I never really had any issues with accessive heat from my tubers OR my XB.

Here in St. George its in the low 100's and mine pings in the heat. And the right heat I dont even notice, but the heat on the left was noticeable, and the seat was getting hot. (course I have the low seat)
