I saw an 1125CR this morning on my way back home from PT. The one morning I don't take my bike because I'm running late and I see another Buell, go figure. It looked alot better driving past me than it does on the Buell website...perhaps I'll make it my next bike.

Maybe i should keep my fingers crossed and mouth shut. The CR and the whole 1125 platform, .... when i tried the 1125R i was disappointed. The bike was bad at low rpms. They have relased an update for the 08 models and they say the 09 models have this problem solved. I talked to a dude at a dealer. He told me the update was not making any significant change. Also, i wonder if the CR is as bad on low rpms as the R model. There are nicer bikes - they are not Buells though. They should have done what Wakan did, go S&S 100CI, 50th anniversary S&S engine had been the bomb. I think Buell will have something going lost when they go Rotax. I hope they find another path, some day near. They just sold their thing of originality!
Smart move: - nope!
