Back on the road

After 83 days off the road, I finally picked up my 2008 Buell Ulysses from the dealership. At this point it is in better shape than when it went in. Showroom perfect.

This image is from two weeks before it went into the shop

It went into the shop on October 30th, and came out on January 21st. Nearly everything on the bike is new at this point except for the motor, seat, etc. Close to $5000 in new parts, and another $1000 in estimated labor. The last two weeks have been spent waiting on a single fuel pump line worth $50 bucks or so. The dealership finally had to call another dealer in Mississippi and convince them to ship them one out of their own stock, as Harley corporate was backordered on them until March.

Even though the ride home was cold, it felt good to be back on two wheels.
