Added a new Buell to sit next to the Uly. Did not have to buy this one, she was won on a raffle ticket purchased from Road Racing World Action Fund! I some times have to work a little to lift the front end on the Uly, not soo much on the 1125!!



I'm a really old Fook and these bars and my back just did'n cut it!



The high bar kit was my first farkle and makes this beast very ridable.

Now that's the best way to end up with a new bike- regardless of brand. That is unless you bought $8k worth of raffle tickets.

Don't forget you have to pay sales tax on it. It will be interesting to see what they state as the value. I paid $4999 for mine during the "fire sale" here in N Texas. I may have the sales paperwork if you need it.

How can a 1125CR be better ... by not having to pay for it.

Nice, congrats !!

You'll have to pay income tax on it also. Uncle Sam always gets his cut!

Well done on the prize! I had a Uly prior to my CR, and I found the front would lift alot easier on the XB than the 1125. Maybe it's just me though. Just got to keep practising I suppose! Lol.

Glad to see that the bike went to a Bueller!

And thanks for supporting Air Fence, i luckily haven't used any, and hope not to, but it's great to know that it's there.

On the Ulysses, it is a combination of the upright riding position putting your weight back, the soft rear suspension, and low end torque that make it easily come up. The 1125 dosen't have those flaws, so while the Uly rider is having a hard time keeping the front on the ground, you will be a quarter mile ahead doing 120mph.

Couple more small farkles since the high bars for the new cr. Trying the pegs from the Uly and tank mask to protect it from jacket zippers. Only have about 50 miles on the pegs and I'm not sure it makes that much of a difference. Unfortunately the cr pegs don't fit on the Uly so I'll probably be switching back.

What is that furry thing on the seat of the CR ????? I do hope you dont ride it like that, not good for the image of the rest of us 1125 owners : )

Didn't mean to offend any cr riders but that old sheep skin gets moved to every bike I ride. This old fook has a tender ass!! There is also a gel seat hiding under the skin.

As long as the sheepskin doesn't have a "racing stripe" down the middle. I've heard those are caused by riding with chaps.

cr in winter mode. It's starting to get cold here in Pennsylvania. Controller for the Warm & Safe liner and the Hippo hands from the old Concours.

I tried the hippo hands on the V-Rod, and discovered that at speed, the wind pushes on the front brake lever.....
