I run the belt fairly loose, so loose in fact if you get on it in the fat part of the power band it skips. I run a gear hi because there's less to...

I'll just have to keep my eyes open for an XBRR or PVM wheelset, not that I expect either to pop up any time soon.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Yep! Notice the melting is at the connector-side of the system...not the stator wiring and coils. Cycling resistance at close to...

How much lighter are non-Uly rear wheels vs my Uly unit?

It's a self-escalating problem. A tiny bit of resistance in that plug, be it from being loose, corrosion, etc, generates heat. That heat softens...

Greetings Markus

Thanks for the offer. All available locally except the fuel level sensor. I can live with that though.

Thanks Barrett. On my wife's I replaced Pump, FPR and filter last year, so I'll just do the same again here. Bosch pump, filter from HD and FPR from...

Bringing one back from the dead, I know. I pulled the fuel pump from my '07 Uly today, planning on rebuilding it with the kit purchased from...

Unfortunately yes, all the failures I have seen with this (my own '06 and at least 4 or 5 I have done for other people) all started with the female...
