motorcycle.com has a dealer locator - the link is a result of a search with Idaho and Buell...

http://www.motorcycle.com/dealers/idaho/buell

a)in this economy - ALL the dealers will tell you they can work on the bike...the trick is to find one that can do what they say...suggest you talk with a couple of service writers or even a parts guy to see if they know what a 1125 is and do they know about some of the issues ( clutch weep, wheel brgs., charging system)
b) If I worked at dealership and was in your neck of the woods I would have posted something by now...( not a good sign)
c) are there any other Buell owners you know of that could steer you in the right direction?
d) ...last resort - find a CanAm/Bombardier/Aprillia dealer who knows about Rotax motors...think of the 1125 as a Rotax engine powering a Buell designed HD.

good luck

Montana HD in Missoula was pretty good for Buells back in the day, they're also a Ducati and maybe even Triumph dealer as well so it is not all a**less chaps and chrome. Not too bad of a trip from CDL.

But, I just checked their web site and it says NEW OWNER'S and they changed the name to Grizzly HD so you may want to give them a call first. They also had a sister store in Kalispell which would be even closer for you but who knows now.

Big Sky HD in Great Falls I know is good but now your a 4+ hour trip.

My CR came from Meridian and they had already done the harness.

Hey, thanks for the response, yeah, I found dealers listed in Spokane,WA. and the ones you mentioned in Missoula and Kalispell but I wondered if any of them were into Buells still. Hopefully I'll get some response from Buell guys in the area who have dealt with some of them. Meanwhile, I'll call these ones and see what I learn, Kalispell would be the best ride! Thanks again
