    Thumbs Up for Speeding!

    Gotta love getting the nod from a cop...! A couple of weeks back I was making a early morning run down the top of Natchez Trace and came around a bend only to pass a Williamson County Sheriff doing 68 after tapping the brakes. He turned on the lights and waved me over... I pulled over, turn...

    1125r Gas Smell

    I am not certain that the gas smell is only related to an overfilled tank... I have noticed the similar smell at the end of rides on a hot day, to such an extent that I will leave my bike in the driveway to cool so as to not have the smell in the garage. What stuck out in the original post to...

    EBR ECM failure??

    Interesting to hear how common the sputtering and surge < 4000 RPM issue seems to be with the '08 1125R. Summer of 2010, this was only felt in 1st gear and once into 2nd and beyond, the affliction went away and left me to enjoy my ride. Recently, early August, the trouble reared its ugly head...

    Tire Recommendations

    Decided on the 2CT and went with a new front and rear at the same time. Found the best deal on Motorcycle Superstore which was tax free and shipping was included. Only shop that would mount them in the Nashville area was Bumpus HD in Murfeesboro which ran me just north of $200. The ride was...

    Tire Recommendations

    Did you have any issue with fit on the stock rim when going to the different size? The Diablo III is pricy (>$200) for the rear...thinking of sticking with the Diablo changing model...thoughts?

    Tire Recommendations

    Front is in good shape but I am not married to the Diablo. Willing to change both... What did the change in size do for you?

    Tire Recommendations

    Just passed 5,000 miles on my '08 1125R and the rear tire is shot. Looking for recommendations on new tires and if I should replace the front at the same time. Appreciate the help...

    Laid it down yesterday, now hunting for a few parts...

    Great ride yesterday up to Burkesville, KY for the 3rd annual "Balzzin the Alpine" closed road event. Well planned and nice folks...everyone should go at some point... Only downside is that I figured out how to lay my 2008 1125R down on run #2 of 6 (the last 4 were my "get back on the horse"...

    Advice

    After you sand and have painted, I would suggest looking into vacuum packing in PET film versus coating with a penetrating oil...doing so will remove the risk of staining or discoloration...

    EBR license plate bracket

    Just finished up with the install of the Jardine undertail kit...bought it through St. Paul (MN) HD...was $72 delivered...good directions and easy enough to figure out for a non-wrencher... Thanks Popeye for the recommendation...

    EBR license plate bracket

    Going to have to admit that my wrenching skills are in the needs improvement category but the Jardine kit looks simple enough and should do the job... Thanks for the direction here... [up]

    EBR license plate bracket

    I have been looking for a solution to the jutting out license plate holder on my '08 1125R... Have seen an undertail kit from the UK online that sell for $110.00 and several home mods but nothing I could pull off on my own... Does this EBR eliminator do the trick and how easy is it to install...

    Dude..like the the spirt there...would be great to see this project unfold...you should start with designing a simple and inexpensive undertail mod kit for those of who are less mechanically inclined... All the best...

    Hawk Performance 1125 Mufflers!!

    Been reading through this discussion and it is very similar to the great debate I am currently having on ECM and exhaust in general... Do you go with the EBR ECM for stock exhaust or wait for EBR to come out with the Keda tuned ECM and go whole hog then? Not sure how you guys have staged these...

    Anyone else running hot on the 1125R?

    Texas - Not sure that I would recommend a move to the mid-west...saw snow here in WI Saturday and probably have done the last ride for the season... More to your heat issue, I saw some very high temps this summer on a few rides but only in traffic where there was little or no air movement...

    75 mph to 0?

    Had a similar experience this past summer on my '08. You can imagine my surprise when I was cruising down the interstate and looked down to see that my speedometer was reading 213 mph and then quickly went to 0 mph! After a week, it got to a point that it would just constantly be all over the...

    WI Winter Project Plan

    This is good stuff guys... Sounds like really could be a contest between the Barker, Drummer and the Keda-RT 3 or RT4. From what I can tell, EBR makes a ECM to match the Barker and Drummer but I am not sure if the Keda exhausts are plug and play as the Barker / Drummer seem to be. On their...
