Ok I stole this idea I saw over on the ADV pages. Post your pics of your ULY sleeping. I had to wait until my ride this afternoon to catch mine taking a nap in the Arizona sun.
There is a larger slope than the pictures show, plus my short legs and gravity happens everywhere. |

My Uly was a lazy bastard, but my SS must be be running on 200 octane or something. 0 wrecks in 2008 so far! |

Nope, just dusty as hell. That was at the 230 miles of dirt for the day. The Uly was tired and the driver. |

Isn't it sad that our first instinct after dropping the bike is to take a picture? Here's mine, taking a mudbath:

By the way Rotorhead, is that an aux tank on your beavertail? (Did you make the beavertail into an ESSS for the Uly? Hmm... I wonder if Hellfires would... Never mind.) |

Yo Rotorhead, You haven't got any pics of how you mounted your tool tube have you? Looks like a good place for it, maybe you could describe how you did it if you don't have photos- is it on the luggage rack crossbar? Regards, Hoon PS If Ulyrat has a sleep I'll try and get a picture for you. |

Hoon - there's a tool tube thread here with some other ideas: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/402125.html |

Heres a link to explain some of the mods to my Uly as of late to include my AUX tank, tool tubes and Chain swap!! That Aux tank is a great way to fill once and forget about fuel for the rest of the day. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/416426.html?1227472763 |

I haven't even taken delivery of my Uly yet (19 days) and I already hate the stupid belt. |

of all the times I have been down, gone over, fallen off the beaten path, I have never taken a pic of it. I guess I was just too Pi$$ed that the bike went out from under me. |

Adrian, if I'd had my camera available, I'd be posting your pic and not my own. I'd say we can recreate it at March Badness, but let's not... |

I like the matching color on the bags. How did you do that? |

What exactly is it you'll take Froggy, the Uly or the belt ? |

Both But yea, I was talking about the belt. If you do a chain swap let me know, i'll buy the belt. |
