I want to buy a CR any advice, tips or suggestions?

Been stalking this site and you tube for cr videos pics chat etc.....want one in the worst way. Really seems like an awesome machine and I love the fact it doesn't have a full fairing like the R and is geared lower ...since I'm not a top end guy. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks

Any advice? They are bad ass. Love mine. Make sure stator and rotor are done already if not just do it before you get stuck pushing it home like I did.

Love my cr as well. Check to see if the stator and rotor have been changed, along with the ebr clutch actuator o-ring kit to get rid of the clutch weep. Also depending on miles, see if the valves have been checked. Needs to be done at 12,400 miles. Other than that just the basics. Tires, brakes, check for leaks, etc. If u get one u'll love it!

once you have the clutch weep and stator issue resolved remember the following for true performance upgrades. K&N Air filter, Dean Adams exhaust and EBR ECU or TunePro RT.

I just think buell is the way to go. I love my cr but frankly I would be happy with a 1125r, lightning, firebolt or a tuber. I'm with logix too. First upgrade should be dean adams exhaust and an ebr ecm. Xblights led taillights are a must have. And oberon bar end led turn signals with crg blindsights are super easy to install and make the bike look more cafe racer.

You will absolutely love the cr. The very first thing you should buy is a service manual. After that a Keda exhaust system and so on and so on.....most unique, brutal fun bike I've owned!

Advice, just get one. Then get another, then get an 1190. And fun for everyone!

Definitely gonna get one, was just checking what to look for. I already have a firebolt and an S1 with an S&S motor....so I've been bitten by the Buell bug already.
