My experience.Firsth thing I noticed was you had to short shift compared to anything else I've ridden. 4500rpm and its shift time. Secondwas It felt like my wrists were directly atached to the front axle --the steering felt just that precise. I wouldn't own one but thats only because they arent to my taste no reflection on the bike

I think they are ok for the money, mates got one a 2010 ulysses and first thing you notice is the cheap looking instruments, switchblocks, in fact anything plastic on them, then after a ride (his model has a very high seating) they are pretty guttless for the cc and that huge front brake is rubbish feels wooden and shimmers, of course never told my mate that as he absolutely loves it but this is comming off a harley,his only complaint so far is it done a rear wheel bearing after 4000kms.

Love our one (2001 buell lightning). Not the best for passengers but that doesnt stop me getting on the back LOL. Owned ours for 3 years now and regular oil/ filter and havent had a problem. Friend of ours has the orginal book with his so we know now that the front forks are due for a reoil. Keep the maintence up and they are awesome!
