Did the amphibious Froggy ever actually turn the 1125 into a ULY/1125 crossbreed?

No, but another guy in the 1125 forum did. He put an entire Uly tail section with bags on his 1125CR. Initially, he installed the Ulysses fairing, lights, and windscreen, but not long ago he went back to the 1125CR front end parts and decided he liked them better.

Search the Badweb 1125 forum; there are at least two separate threads on the bike.

Not yet, my issue is a lack of tools and skills to make the adapter brackets. I'll get down to Jersey one of these days and have a set fabbed up.

That said, I don't have a real desire to do it anymore, my seat on the 1125R is fantastic, and more comfortable than the Uly seats. The only reason I would do it is to give more passenger room, but that is not a big issue. I would still have to get creative with mounting the luggage racks and passenger pegs, so I've held off.

Froggy hurry up and get creative with mounting the luggage racks and passenger pegs so I can see how you did it on the 1125r

If it is done the same way I do everything else, you will not want to duplicate it for your own safety : )

Remember, I've accidently set my home computer on fire on several occasions : )

That's awesome!

That's right up there with a buddy of mine who literally melted the 12V output stud off the back of the alternator in his Mustang due to the massive current draw when listening to AC/DC on his high powered stereo rig WFO.

Here's the real thing:



Don't think I'd want to try any off-roading with that aftermarket muffler though...
