Buell XB12X Ulysses: Electrical
Affects Buell XB12X Ulysses · 2006–2007 — about 125 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain motorcycles, a vibration at the mounting location of the bank angle sensor, if combined with the misrouting of various wires that impinge on the sensor or its pigtail, can compromise the isolation of the bank angle sensor. Under certain circumstances, this may create a false "tip" signal and cause the engine to quit while an operator is riding the motorcycle. This could result in a crash, which could cause injury or death. Correction: Dealers will move the bank angle sensor from the original location on the battery tray, to the current production location on the seat latch.
