Definitely Not something I'm fond of... I liked the frosted or No shine paint I've seen on buells much more that that.

Might look good on a 80's cutlass with HURST decals and a V6.

I prefer understated paint on a bike that performs.

Leave the show paint, made in china chrome, and leather fringe to slow moving, noise making, Twinky harleys.

But thats just an old farts opinion.

Hopefully no one else likes it.

I need an 1125, but I will not be able to get one until January.

Bumpass has some chromed passenger peg brackets that would probably look good in that bike.

I agree with Augustus74.

Really nice paint application. How much were they asking for the bike? Could be the best of all an overstated bike that can back it up.

Like the paint effects, but not a fan of their design. Looks more laundry in the wind than sporty stripes.

Well, that's why they make blonds, brunettes, and redheads...

Not really my flavor, but it is nicely done.

It's well done, but I don't like what they did.

I call it the Spin Doctors effect, based on my feeling of the band Spin Doctors from the 90's.

The more you try to glamour up an 1125, the worse it gets.

One of the first mistakes that many Harley dealers made was to tart up the Buells. Many dealers came/come from a custom background so it was a natural act to Harleyize the bikes.
In effect, they tried to force-fit the Buells into their dealerships rather than recognize and appreciate what they really were/are.

This 1125 is just another example of mistaken identity.

I like it. I prefer understated, but the 1125R is too drab in my book. I'd probably like it even better if there were fewer stripes.

I would have to go the other way...a "stealth" finish, complete with anti radar and anti laser finish......or my license would be GONE...

I't hard enough keeping my butt out of trouble on my XB12s.

I was almost on my way to do a little custom paint on my Uly. Then the news of Buell closing down made me decide against it. The Firebolt needs a race stripe!

And the blue one above, along with chrome or polished wheels.

...be sure and extend the swingarm 10 inches, put Iron cross mirrors on it, and cover the tank with bleached mouse fur.

Whenever I see a customized or repainted sportbike, I always wonder what crash damage they are trying to hide. Even if that bike was never crashed, I'll bet the resale will be lower than a stock one. I would NEVER buy a sportbike with anything other than stock paint/plastics.
