Hello All,

Thanks for the add.

Born again biker after 20 years.
Always liked the Buells but never had one.
Had a good sniff round some Buells at the Copdock show (Thanks Kev M.) Just bought a Ulysses.
Can't work out the picture thing here so I will put some on the FB site.

Its an '07 and way too tall, so lots of fettling and farkling (thats a new word) to do over the winter.
This forum seems to be a great resource.

All the Best
Paul

Welcome

You've already met Kev so you've made a good start on the road to Buell knowledge.

If you need to get work done then Maz is the man. Based in Manchester - you'll get loads of recommendations for him and others will post links and stuff.

Enjoy

Welcome to the forum.

Best move I made after getting my Buell.

I've had loads of help & info from folks on here over the past few months.

Enjoy doing your Buell to how you want it to be.

All the best Paul.

Thank you all for your kind welcome.

Been forum lurking; lots of useful info and very helpful - Looking forward to finding out all about this bike and getting it to where I think I want it to be.

'Farkling' a new word to me. Been out of touch for a long time - no doubt I will be using it like an old hand in the near future.
Not seen any other Buells in Suffolk - I'm in Elmswell.

I will surface with all the various questions that newbies come up with in other parts of the forum.

Onwards!
Paul

Hi there,
Don't worry about seeing other Buells, I live near Matlock in Derbyshire & I've only seen one other in over a year & there are hundreds of bikes every Saturday & Sunday just down the road in Matlock Bath. They are a rare sight indeed, but I'm sure you'll get as much support as I have in this forum.
All the best Paul.

Welcome!

Looks like you got a fettler there alright. Good luck, hope all goes well.

Will you unwrap the headers?

And see if you can borrow/try out a low seat, that might make a big difference.

Use Photobucket for photos BTW...It is tricky.

Looks fun. Were you planning on putting it back to a belt?

Hi there I'm only up the Road a little Way in Felixstowe, nice to hear of another Buell in the Area

No, I think I'll leave things as they are for now.

A belt would have been my preference. The only disadvantage of a chain that I can find is the lack of a cush drive. I guess a belt absorbs some of the shocks..

Perhaps in the future, but lowering is the priority right now. The height is a bit intimidating at low speed.
