    WI Winter Project Plan

    My understanding is that they mapped a KEDA can or two this summer. For some reason it is not available on the website yet, but it should be soon. Of course, been hearing that for a while now. I've also heard that the generic EBR ECM for slip ons and pump gas works well with Deans pipe. You...

    WI Winter Project Plan

    The one thing I haven't done to my 1125 is an exhaust and I am still torn on the issue. I don't much like the look of Barker's, but it is certainly the best bang for the buck. I do like the Jardine and to a slightly lesser degree the FMF slip on but too many others perform better. The...

    Where to buy Barker exhaust?

    Good choice on the Barker's. I am not a huge fan of the looks but it performs at least as well as the Drummer or Deans pipes plus it is the lightest. Factor in the price and the availability of the quiet cores and there really is no comparison.

    Rear Stand Recommendation?

    Vortex makes great stands too. Same price and quality as the Pit Bull. I have a Pit Bull rear and a Vortex front stand. Love both. Some guys swear by T-Rex stands and they are a bit cheaper, like closer to $100. All except the Pit Bull for the '08 require spools.

    how bout some pics of the 1125 beauties out there??

    One guy on BadWeb painted his "Orange Crush". It looks sweet on the Diamond Blue frame. Several have done white plastics on the blue frame, even my dealer did it when they were sitting on an '08 before they could get '09's and people kept asking for a white one. It looks awesome to use the...

    Flush front turn signal suggestions?

    I did the running lights to turn signal conversion and used the ASB block off plates. I found bullet connectors at the hardware store that matched the ones from the mirror/turnsignals and crimped them on the running light wires. That way I can just plug the turn signal leads into the running...

    Tank Bag

    I have the Buell bag too. I rarely use it, I like the Buell tail pack I have for the rear seat. If I were looking for one now though, I would definitely go for the Cortech. Great quality and better prices than the Buell stuff. Although, I haven't found a tail bag as nice as the Buell one.

    how bout some pics of the 1125 beauties out there??

    Yeah, I haven't added it up yet, but if I were to go with a full exhaust I am sure I will have spent more on the bike than I paid for it. I always wanted to do that...

    how bout some pics of the 1125 beauties out there??

    They are the Buell wheels. I had no idea what they were intended for, I just found a part number for white wheels. I sourced them from Lakeshore HD. 20% off and free shipping over $200 or $300. They were about $550 shipped for the set. When you can get a set of wheels for less than half of...

    how bout some pics of the 1125 beauties out there??

    Thanks again. You are correct about the pitbull for the 1125 being wider. I would also suggest replacing the stock spools. I bought anodized aluminum ones from Vortex, 6mm IIRC. They are cupped to help align the stand, and of course more trick than the plastic ones. They are reasonable too...

    how bout some pics of the 1125 beauties out there??

    I am on the road at the moment but I will get more pics when I am home. You can't see all the carbon fiber or make out the ASV levers too well in those pics. I am working on getting an exhaust on it this winter. Probably Deans RT-3.

    how bout some pics of the 1125 beauties out there??

    Thanks for the compliments! The bar ends, I like but they are not better for rearview than the stock mirrors. The PitBull is awesome. It is actually a standard size one, and I scratched my swingarm first time I tried to use it. I spread it out with a bottle jack and it works great. I...

    Exhaust Warning!!! (FMF Apex CF/TI exhaust)

    "Pulled over twice" Holy cow that sucks dude. Glad you were able to get out of the tickets. I've heard of several exploding FMF's on BWB. People who ride hard and track day regulars blow them out pretty quickly. My understanding is they have reversed the materials. The skin is now Ti and...

    Passenger pegs

    I am certain EBR has them, and they ship same day. Super service.

    Charging harness recall?

    You don't have to take their word for it. Remove your seat and look at the wiring. There will be yellow wires under there. This thread on BWB has before and after pics. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/290431/556857.html It should look like that, without the addition of an...

    Coolant temp.

    Yeah, the fans seem to run pretty much all the time. I am curious how badly they are needed on the freeway. I doubt they do any good at all at speed but whatever. These things do run stupidly hot most of the time. I think the only time they are moving quickly enought to dissipate the heat...

    2008 1125r oil leaking!

    Fuel boiling is a known and common occurence on these bikes. It doesn't seem to cause any problems, and I don't notice it on every ride. Just part of the bikes "character" I guess. It seems to me that these bikes are just big two wheeled heaters. I bet that is why no one ever put fuel in the...
