If you ride in the rain, pack some grease in the corrugated rubber sheath around the clutch cable hose and secure a zip tie around the top of that rubber piece. I collected some water in the clutch...

A performance upgrade may enable you to accelerate and ride faster, which would necessarily use up more gas. On the other hand, if you continue to ride gently and cruise at only moderate speeds like...
I'm even more of a newbie (first and only bike is a new 08 Uly I got last October), but here are just a few thoughts: Check wheel bearings and axles: Bang tires sideways with your fist while...
Might it be better to optimize ECM timing parameters on a dyno instead of just cutting a wire?
OK, I just hear back from Al at AmericanSportBike.com . I'm all set with the scoop order for my 08 Uly, but I can't speak for anyone else, so if you have any further questions about the scoop or any...

OK, thanks BPG, I pasted your note with the part numbers from the other thread in an email to Al. If he has an 08 Uly and has affixed the scoop onto it properly, I'm sure he'll say so. In the...
Toying with cops is an idiotic crapshoot -- I don't care how capable you or your bike are, or how amenable the local conditions may be to the game. Of course you usually win, but when you lose, you...
Al also emailed me photos, one of the unpainted fiberglass scoop, one of it painted. I don't know how to upload pics here, so just ask Al if you're really interested. Maybe ask him about the fuel...

1. Would your 9160 scoop REALLY fit my 08 Uly? I understand there was a...
Bike gets hot in NJ too, but more due to idling in traffic rather than hot weather. Can you give a little more detail (I'm a shameless novice)? I'll need to do a similar treatment soon. I already...
Lucky you -- fewer cars down there I'm guessing. I commute 22 mi from Rutherford to Whippany, via I80 on the Uly, via Eagle Rock Rd (and other back roads) on one of my zero cc's if the forecast is...
americansportbike.com sells the spiky pegs, plus many other add-ons you might like to browse.
Ortlieb makes nice waterproof backpacks and duffels, available from aerostich.com . I have one of each and like both. They bungee nicely onto the extended beavertail of the Uly. I don't go on big...
Ceramic-coat the muffler, preferably when brand new before you take delivery. I'm going to use jet-hot.com Sterling, but there are others. My muffler was already rusting badly after only 3 months...
