    I would be very interested to see how you've mounted the reservoir. can you maybe post a photo without the heel guard?

    custom bellypan 1125cr

    The position of the brake reservoir has been quite a headache, because there are not that many places to hide it, especially since I have no free space left below the seat. The small bracket still has to be powdercoated so it will be black. The reservoir itself is easy to change. It just takes...

    custom bellypan 1125cr

    After modifying the tail and fitting an APH exhaust, I now want to start working on the bellypan. Just like the tail, I want to make it out of aluminum. The photo shows a carton mockup (flat) which is fitted to the bike and painted in photoshop afterwards. What do you think?

    Buell 1125cr tail mod

    I hope so, because I really tried to make it look like it could have been done in the factory. that is also why it took so long because I had the aluminium undertray redone by a body shop after I wasn't fully satisfied with the piece that I made myself. The whole point is to make the bike less...

    Buell 1125cr tail mod

    ok guys, I realize I have been quiet a bit and for sure a lot more time has passed than I had expected, but the work is done and the project has been completed! �� Tomorrow I will upload some photos and I'm very curious to hear what you all think.

    Buell 1125cr tail mod

    I want to make the undertray from aluminium sheet and bend it near the shock so it can be attached to the original mounting point below the seat.

    Buell 1125cr tail mod

    ok, just got my first learning moment which I would like to share with you guys; "If you use photoshop to decide which parts to cut, ALWAYS make a rendering of BOTH sides of your bike!" As mentioned earlier in this topic, the subframe of the 1125 is asymmetrical with regards to the mounting...

    Buell 1125cr tail mod

    that should fit for what I've read and my first idea was to fit the complete ebr tailsection, but it is not available in Holland and I would have to buy all kinds of new parts, which would be too expensive. and finally, the thing that really made me change my mind after putting the parts in...

    Buell 1125cr tail mod

    i'm considering the radiantz led strip, but my first idea is to add a very small led unit inline with the micro signal lights Inhave mounted on the licenceplate bracket. I haven't found it yet however so I have to see if it will look as I have in mind.

    Buell 1125cr tail mod

    hahahahah I guess that that is the best compliment I could get as the XB tail swap is basically the only mod I could find for the 1125. Thanks!

    Buell 1125cr tail mod

    thanks for the advice. I marked the lines on both sides of the fairing as accurate as possible and used a thin grinding disk to make the cuts. I intentionally kept a few mm of margin so I can sand both sides. in this way I have a bit more control to get both lines right and equal. As can be...

    Buell 1125cr tail mod

    I need some advice. the next task is to cut the abs tailpiece. I don't want having to repaint the tailpiece as it is in mint condition as it is, so whatever method I use to make the cut, it has to be precise and clean in one go, without to many burrs etc. which tool would be the most suitable...

    Buell 1125cr tail mod

    correct. the xb frame has symmetrical mounting points and the 1125 frame doesn't.

    Buell 1125cr tail mod

    as i said, it took hours to do it (and it is not finished yet as the batterytray etc will have to be welded back) and together with shipping to and from Holland, that would probably cost you a small fortune, but thanks for the compliment��

    Buell 1125cr tail mod

    1) make a photoshop rendering 2) start the actual mod �� To be able to have a fully flat panel below the tail piece, all extending brackets as well as the batterytray had to go. Here are a few pictures of the subframe during cutting. Although it probably only took about 10min...

    Buell 1125cr tail mod

    Hi guys, I’ve been away for some time as I bought a KTM RC8 after selling my XB9S. Although the KTM is a great bike and a big improvement over the XB with regards to BHP and the additional 6th gear, it could not prevent me from starting to miss my Buell. As it is a bit of a difficult bike to...

    Oil change -> no oil filter!

    I just bought a 2009 Buell 1125 CR at a local dealer with only 4460 km's. Basically the bike is brand new. The deal was: "cash and carry", in other words, I came with my old bike and left with the Buell without it getting any service or checks. To be sure, I had the oil changed two weeks later...
