Avoiding suspension changes, how complicated would be to fit a Ulysses sub frame on the stt? Looking at some ideas, as i have a good chance to get a cheap stt. Thanks |

Bolt it on and place the under seat components. |

Unless your wanting to add saddle bags and a windshield for touring, I'd keep the STT as it is stock. One of the best Buell motorcycles ever made. If I hadn't already had my Uly, I would have purchased a STT. Great bike for short (my typically) rides. |

I've ridden the bike and it's taller than the uly with the low seat, it was quite uncomfortable and riding position was not for me, i wasent sure about cornering with it. |

I think the STT is the best-looking of the XBs. I'd love one. Buy it, but spoil it. If you don't take passenger you can tour on one. Tank bag and throwovers. |

Buy it, but don't spoil it, I meant. |

It's a sad bike because owner cant use it because of to much work, but i much prefer to get an X1. The stt has less than 20k miles easy ridden, termignoni exhaust with a race ECM, i i parchased it i would change that exhaust for a D&D and the EBR ECM i have sitting on the shelf |

I can't really buy it as transporting it down here is difficult. I am not a resident of Spain, which I'd need to be to buy it or I couldn't transfer the registration to Portugal. I've always wanted one, though. My Ulysses is well-sorted. It has all the mods. This STT could be rubbish. Who knows? |

I've know the bike since new so i know it well. My uly had a lot of upgrades, but i had an accident a month ago and the front de is all broken and a few scrapes on the bike, will take ages to get it sorted out, as the accident was against a french car |

That was bad luck, Pontlee77. I hope it gets settled in your favour as soon as possible. In your case I'd but the STT now. It will need the upgrades, though. Do you have somewhere to store the two bikes? Has your Ulysses been reliable? How many miles has it done? Year? Changing the focus of the thread, but I'm interested. |
