Naa i still like the 12r and the 1125cr (the 1125r is hideous) and i really was looking forward to getting one in a couple years. I wanna ride one again to see if it was just an off day.

I've only ridden a TLR once...and that was around the block...so I really have no idea on the engine characteristics. But I did ride the 1125R at the track. I loved the engine....and that was a pre-production model.

Then again, I also love the XB engine even more.

TL = the ride of jesus christ himself in my book, nothing but unadulterated fun. Even if it is a fat pig.

^$#%^&$#%^%$# it's not a fat pig!!!!

It's wide thanks to the upper radiator, but not fat! It weighs about as much as a CBR900RR, and I don't hear people calling those fat!

I have to agree with you about the TLR. It is stupid fun, and more than should be legal.
