First, Thanks for taking the time to answer some of these questions, It really does help build the excitment of the new bike.

Will it be available in Yellow???

Black with dark blue metallic frame and wheels only for 2008MY. Don't know beyond that.

I wonder if the skins will be interchangeable with the XB models. Then you could make it any color they have.

It's already been asked & confirmed elsewhere that yes, you can use XB parts on the 1125R (Airbox covers, wheels, etc.) So other than the frame & swingarm, your "color" options are only limited by your checkbook.

The fairing and scoops are still only available in black since there is no equivalent XBR part...

Im painting the frame flat black. I dont like the diamond blue color. My friends are already making fun of me buying a black and blue bike. They say it will match my body after i get it. Even though ive never wrecked a bike in my life. Unless you count the time where i didn't tighten up the oil drain plug on my katana and while racing through the street in fort worth texas with oil all over my back tire. was like riding on ice. Ended up going into a ditch but took no damage at all. Actually kept the bike up on the wheels.

This would be doable with the extra/XB parts available.
...and a can of black Krylon, lacquer of course.


Red 1125

You can have it in any color you want... as long as it's black.

I will probably paint my frame matt black and the same for the wheels,
since I am not big on polishing and prefer to ride instead ,will probably remove decals as well it makes it look more interesting and people will keep asking is that a Ducati

Man I would like a little bit of a red accent.



Or maybe a bit of a orange accent?


I just can't make up my mind. And I do have a set of Sunset orange and the Uly gold / silver wheels here as well. hmmm...

It would have to be a blind and deaf person to think the 1125 is a Ducati.

Some kind of Suzuki.....possible.

These bike/wheel color combos look pretty good. Especially red wheels.

According to Anony - yes, wheels are the same XB-1125.

"are the wheels identical to xb9 wheels"

You'll have to remount the rear tire as the rear wheel mounts the opposite direction on the 1125R vs the XB's. E.G. Brake rotor on the right instead of the left.

I'd like to see a 1125R with the cherry bomb wheels, air box letters, and a cherry bomb wind shield!

"It would have to be a blind and deaf person to think the 1125 is a Ducati.

If you saw a 916 or a 1098 coming at you head on, I bet you'd think 1 thing.."Is that an 1125?" They don't look too far apart if you ask me. We're all Buell Nuts here, we could see the difference, the big question is..can the non-Buell enthusiast tell the difference without reading the tank logos?
