Hey guys I just landed a damn near new 2009 1125R and I need to know a few things. What stands do you tend to prefer and how difficult is the rear wheel removal compared to the XB platform? |

I use PitBull stands I got from American Sport Bike, they work great! Tire removal is pretty much the same as the XB. |

Thanks Froggy! Can a service manual still be had for this bike? |

Yep, American Sport Bike sells them, along with your local Buell dealer. |

Buellmojo, I see you have the same color as I do. That is the sexiest color made in my opinion. How are you enjoying our bike? |

The rear swing arm is wider than most and this makes a need for a somewhat specific application. Pit Bull and T-Rex have 1125 models... |

There's a guy on TWTEX selling a pitbull for like $100 that's 1125r specific. That's a fantastic stand. It's what I use and love. When are you bringing that thing to the track? |

Pitbulls, but my 08 doesn't have spools (Message edited by sprintst on August 31, 2011) |

Pitbull. Strong and high quality. I think made in USA too and sold by Cycle Gear. |

I use Pitbull, too. Got mine from American Sportbike. They're great stands. The quality is such, that I think my stands will be around long after I'm gone. |

Pit Bull makes an 08 rear stand. I saw one on sale at Latus HD the other day. 1.877.468.7584 |
