Jerry, that has to be the most polished S1 I've ever seen! ; )

yea, I've heard of the red CR's called red lobsters, and white 1125R's called white crabs.
I call my CR the Black Lobster...

Thanks Bartimus. I'm tempted to say something like, "Yep, I always enjoyed rubbing on my Thong..." : D

My 1125cr is the "Black Lobster". I know, it makes no sense at all. So what?

"Boiler" is a pretty good description, particularly in summer.

Perhaps the best nickname for an 1125 is what Buell called its engine in the initial introduction: the "Helicon" engine.

When someone asks me what kind of Buell that is, I respond "the new 1125R with the even newer Rotax Helicon engine". Then I go into detail.........if allowed and they are interested.

DIP switches? You whippersnappers had it easy. Why, back in my day, we had to use jumpers. Now, get off my lawn!

I refer to my CR sometimes as the loki variant of Buells.
