Rode in the March of Dimes "Bikers for Babies" Rode out of Watertown NY. About 300 bikes. I thought I had the only 1125CR there. Someone told me they saw another 1125CR and the guy called his bike the Angry Crab. Now, I can't look at the air scoops without thinking about how they look like crab pinchers. |

I named my red CR "Pinchy the Lobster Bike".

I had ridden in to work one day on my CR and at the end of the day I found a picture of Sebastion (the lobster on Little Mermaid) taped to the front of my fly screen with the tittle "Buell 1125 Rock Lobster". I work with some real douchers. |

Finedaddy - sorry but that's hilarious. I'm the only 1125R in the group I ride with and they say mine looks like an Angry ant. |

Funny stuff. But, you can't see it when your on it. All Buell since the XB look basically the same from the back, which is where most people should be seeing them if they are ridden as designed. |

I know, I know... if you're going to name your bike, you have to use a girl's name, but... I call my red CR Sebastian after the crab in the Little Mermaid... and to top it off, I found vinyl stickers of Sebastian and put those on each pod. Glad I'm not the only one who thought of the bike like this. 32 years of riding and I've never named a vehicle except this one! |

OBTW, After the ride, no one had anything for my 1125CR. The harder they tried to jump out in front, the faster I pasted them on the curves. Heard alot of "Wow I didn't know you were behind me until you passed me." I would have named my CR Angry Crab, but I already nicnamed my wife that. |

I'll see what I can do when I get home tonight, but I've got to finish packing the Uly for a five state, 10 day tour of the SW (TX, NM, CO, AZ, UT). Wayne |

Hmmmm. Could have been mine? I've got an 09 red CR, but it has been in Arkansas since April waiting for me to retire. Around Fort Drum it is known as the Angry Lobster by the people I ride with. I still have my 08 XT up here though. There is a black CR on post also. |
