How do you break a frame like that!!!   Froggy Posted on Monday, January 18, 2010 - 10:05 pm:        Hell pick up a used frame, a CR front fairing, and your golden.   Joel Posted on Tuesday, January 19, 2010 - 12:13 am:        The forks don't look like they took a front end hit. Hard landing? Joel   Nallac Posted on Tuesday, January 19, 2010 - 04:52 am:        Joel,That must of been one hell of a wheelie landing to do that......   Malott442 Posted on Tuesday, January 19, 2010 - 08:04 pm:        That is what we call a karate chop or a mousetrap. ••••••• squids   146hp375lbs Posted on Tuesday, January 19, 2010 - 09:00 pm:        The same guy has an 08 xb on ebay. Steering angle looks a little steep!   Rc3094 Posted on Tuesday, January 19, 2010 - 09:19 pm:        Ouch, damn! That hurts just thinking about it. The forks are definitely tweaked on the XB.   Avc8130 Posted on Tuesday, January 19, 2010 - 10:35 pm:        That's actually NOT the only one on Ebay with frame damage like that! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Buell-1125R-25th-An n-project-wrecked-CLEAR-TITLE_W0QQitemZ32047578749 1QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_motorcycles?hash=item4a9dd8 70e3   Manxboy Posted on Tuesday, January 19, 2010 - 11:28 pm:        I'd like to know how hard a hit these two bikes took to break the frames the way they did? I'm racing an '08 just like these!! I'll be keeping the wheelies to a minimum....   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, January 20, 2010 - 12:02 am:        Avc8130, I spy DHM sliders + Precision Eng brake lever, it might just belong to a badwebber!   Avc8130 Posted on Wednesday, January 20, 2010 - 07:54 am:        Froggy, "Clear Title"! LOL ac   Jos51700 Posted on Wednesday, January 20, 2010 - 12:42 pm:        The frames are designed to break on impact, BUT they're designed to break in a manner so that the fuel is contained within the frame. I don't see how that could happen with so little damage done to the rest of that R.   Avc8130 Posted on Wednesday, January 20, 2010 - 12:50 pm:        FAIL Fuel doesn't look contained to me. This guy is lucky it didn't turn into a fireball! All of that heated fuel spilled out onto the hot radiators/engine/exhaust. Looks like a safety hazard. Better send all of those dangerous 1125s to me. ac   Blake Posted on Wednesday, January 20, 2010 - 05:55 pm:        Please don't post other strangers' ads from ebay here.
