Greetings fellow adrenaline junkies.
New to the forum and a new Buell 1125 CR owner. Got about 300 miles on it so far. Can’t wait to see what the engine is all about after the break in period. I got the red. Putting it on the track next year. Inside Pass is a must do. Glad to support the effort that brought this bike into being.

The weather is supporting some riding this time of year. Still working with the break in limitations. While coming off a merging ramp, leaned over to the right, left thigh hooked over the seat looking behind, I got a glimpse of open space. I cracked the throttle a bit and the front end picked up, skipped along for awhile, the set back down. All while leaned over hanging off. Wow, I bet that looked cool I thought. Guess I better get used to things like that happening.

Them ice stunt guys, thats just plain crazy. Hit some black ice before, it was all over before I realized what happened.

Picked up the handlebar kit today. It looks promising. But, the more I ride, the better I like the CR bars. There is something about the CR bars. They are round and curvy with a pointy edge as well. Maybe they are Bi-polar too. The mirrors still freak me out a bit.
Really glad I replace the water with antifreeze on the track bike yesterday. Got a little nipply last night.
