Roadking V Buell Ulysses
I went for a Blast with Captain Nartman & his new Pride & Joy....a New Buell Ulysses!
After we got out of town & away from the Public we decided to try a few Roll of Races. So, at 100KPH/60MPH we counted one, two, three....GO! SNAP on the throttle flat out & see what happens!
Surprisingly the Roadking (1550cc) went well up against the Buell but not for long, the Ulysses creeping away eventually.
At 120KPH/75MPH the Roadking went better against the Buell. I'm sure this will change somewhat when the Ulysses undergoes a Power transformation via a free breathing air-filter & a power pipe!
It's all in the name of Fun & indeed, Fun was had!
Here are some more Pix of the New Beast in Town!
I should have worn my Platform shoes....these things are Tall!

Yeah the 1550 moves along quite well, the Buell is stock standard & will be 'moded' in due course plus Nartman was riding a bit on the conservative side as it's still run-in time....
TELL ME>>>>Are there Photos in the first Post (Look up) I put some in but for some reason I can't see em anymore.
WTF?
