Wild! No venom, no backhanded quasi-compliments, just an outline! Light at the end of the journalistic tunnel?

Did the Motorcycle.com guys write that?

It read like a press release...

I'm still waiting for an actual review of either an '09 1125R or an 1125CR.

That's the Buell press release, word for word.

No hope in sight.

How about David Edward's Late-breaking comment in Oct.'08 Cycle World:

"Buell is bouncing back from the botched roll-out of its Rotax-powered 1125R sportbike with a debugging of the fueling system, thank you very much, and the addition of a naked version, the 1125CR."

Can't quite read the tone of this one...

Yeah, the 1125r roll-out was botched...ha ha.


When David Edwards gets his face out of the breasts that Suzuki probably sends to his house every weekend, he might read some news and see how the 1125r has been performing extremely well on the racetrack this year. Pretty hard for a 'botched roll-out' to do as much damage as the 1125r did this year to the competition.

Sad story, 99% of moto journalists write stuff that their readership wants to hear. As long as the majority of people are riding Gizzers, the majority of articles will be tilted to make Suzuki look good and everything else look not as good.
