I apologize if this has been already mentioned, I did not read the articles yet either ...... In the July/Aug issue of FUELL there seems to be some revealed secrets. Page 10 there is a new windscreen/flyscreen fitted and silver in color. Page 11 there are several points of interest. It looks like shortwheelbase XB's with Ulysses front ends. Two are 9 motored and one is a 12. All have Lightning tailsections. The really interesting thing I see is what appears to be chain conversions. Now I know these could be old testing photos from pre-Ulysses days but...maybe not. Anyone, Anyone...BUELLER! NUTS |

I noticed those photos too. My bet is those are from early development of the Uly. I noticed the chain type conversion swingarms and the 9 motor. The swingarm was most likely the easiest way to get the extended wheel base of the Uly in a prototype. The flyscreen is again a most likely an early prototype for the Uly. Notice the BMW in the same photos. They would be using it as a bench mark for performance in the testing. |

Why does it see like I'm the last person in the country to get my copy of Fuell? Every issue I see posts and sometimes receive emails about it at least a week before mine shows up in the mail. I got the First email about this issue back on the fifth. I'm still waiting. |

I guess I shouldn't have been in such a hurry to chime in, cuz I sure don't like the taste of my foot...That's right, guess what I got in the mail today? Yes, my cell phone bill. Oh yeah, and the latest issue of Fuell! I guess I am not the last person as I thought before, 1313 |

My guess is they are development bikes from the Uly. I seriously doubt if R&D would let upcoming bike pictures out of the building. |
