The first 1125cr showed up at the dealer i work at today and i gotta say that it looks a hell of a lot better in person than it does in photos. It looks pretty good. Can't wait to get to ride it |

I saw one in person yesterday, I'd have to say I like it even more. I wish I had more money. |

24 miles on it, I do NOT like the bars for my ergos. Was talking to the tech and he said that the upper triple clamp was attached to the dash housing?!?! Whats that do for changing the bars? I think a set off the new VRod Muscle (and the headlight and dash housing while we are at it) would make more my style of cafe. |

CityXslicker, If you'd get out of the mud puddles once in a while you'd know that Buell has you covered for a bar conversion kit to a more umpa lumpa friendly upright position. Oh and XL1200r, I've seen one at two different dealers. |

city, look on Buell's site under accessories for the CR. All the part #'s are listed. About $200 in parts. Rob |

OK, so anyone know what the small pegs are, that are next to the rear axle on the swingarm? For a stand, I hope? |

yes they are spools for a stand 146 hp on dirt... scary... tempting... all it does is spin the tire first through sixth! i sure as hell need some uly or city x tires on it if i am going to do it very often. you can offroad anything, you just have to be willing to drop the hammer in the most incorrect places (Message edited by no_rice on September 19, 2008) |

Is that a good thing? No. My CR was supposed to ship a week ago. At last check, it wasn't even built yet. Anxiously waiting... |

There's a CR at Adamec HD in Jacksonville. It looks great in the flesh, so to speak. I sat on it and I loved the way it felt. The cafe bars were perfect. |

Thanx for the affirmative reply on the spools being for a rear stand, no_rice, that's good news. What brand's stand will be suited to the 1125? And perhaps Buell will offer one? Otherwise I'll have to import one from USA (I'm in Oz). |

I think I may have to trade my Uly in on the cr...depending on insurance... I hate being in high speed pursuits and not knowing it... |
