I think the XB12XT seems to be a great sport tourer. How does it handle high miles? What is the highest anyone has on an Ulysses model?

My 06 Ulysses has 38+K miles and there are several with much more...no engine troubles. Other than tires, oil changes and brake shoes I have spent $60.00 total.. for one TPS reset and one BAS sensor.

I traded in my '06 in January with over 47K miles on it and it ran excellent.

My '08 has just over 5000 miles on it now and is still breaking in.........

That's what I was expecting and hoping to hear. Knowing that there is a solution to the broiler that comes stock on the right side means both concerns I have are alleviated.

I've currently got 48K miles on the '06; it's been bulletproof and trouble-free.

I'll break 30K this week. never had any problems. I dont think there are many bikes on this planet that are as good as a Buell.

I have 35,800 miles (06) - couple of wiring niggles early on and a neutral switch. I've been riding for 38 years and this Uly is my all time favourite.
