You have a Ulysses, and the thing on the back is known as a "triple tail" or as I always called it "A great Rack".

oh and welcome.

Not at all, but if you want help, you need to have certain facts to hand before asking questions.....believe me, I learned the hard way!!

So what is wrong with the bike?

I used to ride on the bike with my husband but it was left to me.

My brother rides bikes and said that this was a good place if you had a Buell. It is clear that he was wrong.


This is indeed a good place. Properly introducing oneself certainly helps, though, as does a modicum of basic information on the bike. From what you wrote, should we be offering condolences (re the husband, not the bike)?

Knowing the part of the country where you live wold help members to guide you to a proper service establishment to have the problems sorted.

Thank you Jill and Motorad. Sorry but I am not very good at this sort of thing.

I am a GP and not a bike fixer. I asked because I would like help.

Great. So where are you located (don't worry, we don't bite...... too much :run: )
