Have you rode one yet?
BTW...I just did an oil change, adjusted clutch and checked primary chain tension this evening. First time doing those on this bike.

Actually no....the shifting was a little sloppy. I had to pull the clutch lever all the way to the bar....after adjustment it's no bubbles no troubles. Primary was within spec so I didn't fuck with it.

buell claims the new relocation of the O2 sensors, new Targeted fuel injectors, updated engine spark and the new maps dramatically improve fuel economy...

honestly... I've been looking at the 1125r since it came out... but all the problems I've been reading about... I just want them to be sorted out... I talked to the military dealership here... I can put one on order and pick it up as late as October next year... and if I like the 2010's better... I can switch to them... $300 down... and I'm locked into the lowest price from now till then... right now it's MSRP... but mine includes tax and title. delivered to where I want. still not sure if I'm gonna do it... the bike's more than I need right now... and I need more seat time... but if I can put it off till Oct... I don't make any payments till then... just gotta see if it's worth it... see what the stateside dealerships offer them at. who knows... i may get back and sit on my bike and realize I need another couple years... but doesn't hurt to weigh my options |
