  • @mvrtvcom Is 2008 the year when they changed the tires on that bike and put Pirellis, instead of Dunlops I think? I don't think you mentioned it. Better grip, specially off road, no? It's a beautiful and original bike and I don't understand why the company went under.

  • @machintruc313 Yes, I believe this bike had P tires. This bike is still a specialty item, not a lot of power, not quick, vibrates like a Harley. Still has one of the best seats in the industry and maybe the best suspension on the street of nearly any bike. MVR

  • Really nice review like all the others from mvrtv. After watching many of your videos i am still not through with my buying decision F800GS R1200GS or XB12X very difficult. Maybe i should flip a coin ;).

    Nethertheless you guys did a perfect Job! Best regards from Germany! Chris

  • @chef77able Thank you, thank you, thank you! Lots of dirt - F800GS, lots of street - R1200GS! Watch for up coming full movie post which shows both of these off-road in the So Cal Desert. Maybe in the next few weeks, spread the word. Bill MVR

  • OK I want one...

  • Yea, me too. Primarily for the comfort and ride quality.

  • i like the japanese bikes, but after I knew Buell, i became a fan of this bikes, i like BIG trails, and here in brazil, I think that ulysses is the best option in her category

  • I have an 07 and can honestly say it is one of the best all around bikes you can buy. It is more comfortable than my electra glide, and it has excellent power.
