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

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.
