It's great to have you in the group. The Uly is a lot of fun. I've loved mine. The nice thing is that any bugs that pop up are pretty well documented out here and in case you do come up with something new there are a lot of helpful people out here to help you problem solve. That being said you should read the section set up for new owners (especially on moving the ECM) and then ride her like you stole her ... someone else's line, but I like it. |

Welcome. You will definitely learn from this group. They have some real aces here, and they are always happy to help. I'm happy to help too, I'm just not an ace. |

Welcome Ulysapper, glad to have you on board! Your bike looks nice. Please post any questions you have, you will definitely get answers. You will not find a more dedicated bunch of helpful people. Many of these guys are on this forum several times a day, myself included. I'm hooked! |

Wow, I wake up and check this post and see all these responses! You guys are great! I was at a shop yesterday and a guy outside was admiring the bike...he said "Don't see many of them around!" Feels good to have something special! |

Agreed, Mine will be blue as well this weekend as all my new plastic arrives. Had a ton of people at gas stations as about it. |

Blue is the fastest color for sure! Congrats on the new bikes and welcome, xbkris and Ulysapper. Plenty of good info and oftentimes entertainment here on the badweb. BeLinda. |

Sorry, I thought there was a thread on relocating the ECM under Big, Bad & Dirty / New Ulysses Owner Information but I guess you have to do a search. That being said, here are a few that I read: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/655635.html http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/654856.html http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/629631.html http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/628590.html http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/593565.html http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/517589.html http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/652719.html http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/650455.html |

Welcome aboard. When I bought my XT, I debated the red vs blue. I bought red, but that blue is the ticket! Great looking bike! |

^^ The last two links depict how I relocated mine (wedged beside the battery). Seems to work well, and is pretty simple to accomplish. |

Hardest part of relocating the EXM was removing the Fuse Box to bend the battery retainer out of the way. Thanks all for the assistance (Message edited by Buelldualsport on August 03, 2012) |
