2006 Buell
XB12X Ulysses
MSRP $11,495
Despite its off-road pretensions, the Ulysses is as much a nimble backroad sport-tourer as it is an adventure-tourer, and as such it fills a void in the Buell lineup that was vacated when the old tube-framed S3T was axed. While Buell's earlier XBs were a huge step forward in terms of quality and performance, their diminutive size and radical chassis geometry appealed only to a tightly focused market. With the appealingly versatile Ulysses, we expect a much wider range of buyers to come trotting in to Buell dealerships around the country.
