Dredging up this old thread to simply say thanks to the people recommending needle nose pliers to get the switch out. Mine failed and I thought it was going to be a right mission getting it out, but...
Yes I did measure the resistance and it was out of spec - primary measured 1.1 ohms (should be 0.5~0.7) and secondary measured 12k ohms (should be 5.5 to 7.5k ohms). I measured the new one when it...
Sorry for the delay in getting this - I finally had time to do a 45 minute highway loop with the phone on so I could take screenshots. It looks like my AFV is normally 90% - I checked it over a few...
Hey upaero, what AFV am I looking for? I haven't actually looked at ECMDroid since replacing the ignition module, the bike is running great, no check engine errors and no misfire.
I received a care package from St Paul H-D two weeks ago that included a new ignition coil and finally got around to installing it on Saturday. As Monday was a public holiday where I live and the day...
That's exactly what I use mine for too - commuting during the week with 2~3 big multi day trips away throughout the year (+/- 3,000km over 6~7 days with as many gravel roads as I can find). I put...
Uh, yeah, that should be 241°F (damn freedom units ;-P )
Just got back from an hour long ride, it's a nice hot day here in Auckland so a good chance to test the misfire. Of course it didn't misbehave at all, engine ran great, though I did get the check...
I removed my front mount while doing my rocker cover gaskets and it appears to be slightly shagged - the rubber has started to tear, not noticeable on the bike but you can clearly see it when off,...
Completed my engine rotation over the weekend - did rocker cover gastkets, intake seals and fitted a Bosch o2 sensor. As a bonus the bike even still runs after I put it all back together! Took about...
Ah, never realised I could just leave the Buelltooth connected, that makes sense. I usually have my phone on a RAM mount on the handlebars so I'll be able to connect to it very quickly to get live...
Thanks everyone. I didn't think to check the "live" values while it was happening, mostly because by the time I'd pulled over and popped the seat off, connected the Buelltooth, connected phone to...
Hey everyone, I'm hoping the brain trust can shed some light on what might be the issue with my Uly.
I've got a 2008 XB12X with just over 100,000km on the clock. She's been 100% reliable over all...
Looks like another pre-order is up - so if you've been thinking about getting a skid plate go and express your interest!

Are you thinking of doing another run of these this year? I realise the current climate probably means this is a long shot (and the fact only two people ordered them in Jan) but I'd be interested in...
Thanks BuellyBagger - problem is I'm based in New Zealand so shipping could be a bit spendy. We certainly pay more for Harley/Buell parts over here - local Harley dealer priced a top mount up at NZ...
@lunatic I'm not familiar with the top clamp hack and fit routine - what's involved? My search-fu seems to be failing me.
@BuellyBagger I did look at Rox risers but they raise about 2" and move...
Hi team, I've been looking for some bar risers for the Uly - standing up in the rough stuff it feels like I'm reaching down too low. A quick Google throws up Diesel Moto (which is out of stock - no...
We can get pretty much everything down here, but sometimes it costs quite a bit more (the Syn-3 is actually one of the cheapest ones when buying per quart, about $6 cheaper than Belray and Mobil-1)....
BWB has a good run down on the different model years - doesn't appear to be much changed between the 2008 and 2009 models, though I'm pretty new to Buells myself so happy to be corrected.
Yeah I'll put another round of synthetic through it and hopefully it won't go so dark so quickly - what lunatic says makes sense and it might have just cleaned out the crap built up over a few years....
Thanks lunatic, all solid advice. I'm not too worried about spending money on oil (or other things) that are needed, I'm more worried about wasting money on something I don't need to and mineral oil...
Hi everyone, at the risk of starting another synthetic vs mineral oil war....
I bought my 2009 Ulysses second hand with 65,000km on it and not knowing the history of it I changed the oil pretty...
