Adjusted the primary chain after work. I take it for a test ride to QA my work. I return to the house and get asked by the Mrs what I was doing. Knowing that she hates how quiet the Uly is I ask her, "You have no clue I was riding up and down the street do you?"

Her response "No I thought you got the lawn mower out. That motorcycle is too quiet!"

Sigh 20 more months....

See if you can find a race kit somewhere and have the dealer install it.

I was hoping they would come out with one for the Uly instead they discontinue everything.

eBay is your friend. Check around. Someone is likely to have one.

You can still get the race ECM, the K&N filter, then just buy the Drummer can. That is what I have. I have had the bike back in for warranty twice. I bought the Drummer out right and still have the original air cleaner and ECM. It is really nothing to switch them out before taking it to the dealership. It's kind of nice being able to switch the character of the bike back and forth too.

I got scolded again last night. I meet the family at swimming lessons and we both took the same route home. "You were right next to the car and I couldnt hear you!" "That is not safe."

Then she just called me 10 min ago on her way to work to inform me that she still thinks the Uly needs some volume.

Well honey got $800 bucks laying around?

I'll make you a good deal on the Special Ops Tailgunner that I am no longer using since I installed the race kit.

How much horsepower does the K&M, Race ECM and Drummer give you?

Does the bike Wheelie too easy now?

Aeholton, I might be interested in the tailgunner. Can you tell me more details? Is it off of your Uly? Thanks, Jerry

I didnt buy the tailgunner.

There is a Econo Drummer on Ebay if anybody is looking.

My wallet told me I can buy new tires or a pipe but not both. She can just deal with the Stealh XB.
