I have to say that many of you are sold on the new 1125CR as a great bike to have fun on, I own one myself just resently. Although, I have own many over the years, Cyclone’s, X1W’s, ST3’s! I have a 2004 FLHT for a cruiser, but wanted a fun all around bike for short runs and fun runs through the Texas Hill Country. My CR gets 50 mpg on the hwy, and 44 mpg in the city. When I run with the Duck’s and the Aprilli’s they laugh at first and take a hard look at mine after our runs. They ain’t laughing then, especially after I tell them what I paid for it. Thats my favorit part of the day! But it is great ot have two in the stables to ride when ever I want to. I cahnged out my handle bars to the tall bar that Buells makes, I have to say it helps but, I’m looking at Pro Tap for a set of Wood’s Hi bar which allows the 1 1/8th clamps and the 7/8th control heads. They are 2 inches wider but 3.74″ tall, compared to the Buell set that is 1.7″ tall. When I’m done I will sed a pic of the finished CR. You all take care!

Over the last several years I have noticed a trend when it comes to the Buell. The company is really starting to focus on fit and finish. Not just making a machine that works for a few, and that most people would not give it a second glance. Take the 1125CR for example, with all the little details that have gone into making the lines clean with out having large fairings to cover up things. I own two Ninjas…07 ZZR600 and a 08 ZX14. However after test riding the 1125CR, I sold the ZX14. OK I know yes the 1125CR over all will not out perform the ZX14 in the straights, But take the two down the same 17 mile twisty back road and you will find why Buell has built this bike. Not to say the ZX14 is designed for the twisty roads but when you compare the two bikes over all power, torque, ergos, and handling, I was sold. I am now proud to say I own a Buell. Yes and a Ninja but hey why settle for just one type. Like anything else in life when the mood hits sometimes you just have to be different and hope on a Buell.

But hey that is just my opinion.

DODGY, NICOLAS – Yeah, you’re both right. Sorry for my misunderstanding.

Yeah, there’s no better expert on motorcycles than the punk who busts the bikes out of crates and the kid who washes them, usually one and the same.

They are the TRUE insiders.

Several years of Buell dealership, group demo runs, and ownership mean my opinion doesn’t count….

Tom you are probably correct . That’s what attracted me to the Buell brand . I like unique motorcycles . I sold my mint 1976 Honda 750 and kept my crusty 1972 BMW R75/5 so that would sort of tell you what kind of motohead I am . Plus I picked the Buell over a Ducati . I sold my HD when everybody was doing it . I like being differnt and each bike reflects its owners personality at least that’s my opine . I’m not a real techy kind of motorcyce owner I just like to ride and have fun the simpler the better .
