Just picked it up yesterday from Seminole HD. $6200 including taxes, etc. Impressed with it so far (only rode it home)! I am a long time road racer...Retired in 2007 but still do track days. I raced 600's all those years except when I raced the Daytona 200 in 2002 (had a GSXR 750 for that race).

Looking forward to some minor modding of this bike...

Great forum!

Hey racer,
R or CR?
IYHO- which is better for trackdays.
I use a Ducati 999R for track work now.
TIA

"R" Model...Has upper fairing and clip-ons...Had a 2007 Tuono R a while ago...Nice but not sporty enough for me on the track.

I went there on a dyno day they were having, quite a mad house. Wish they'd have just tagged all of them with total prices like that. Lean more to an xb or two over any 1125 but...

I'd be interested in your opinion on the comparison between the 1125R and the Tuono. I was considering the Aprilia when I pulled the trigger on the Buell.

Differences in the T and the 1125R...I'll need to get some miles on it...

I'll do a separate post soon...
