  • Buell 2009 1125CR - Jap Eater
    By  (I am an Owner) on Sep 08, 2011

    I purchased new, a 2009 1125CR. It now has 12000kms in just under 2 years (commutting and w/end rides) & apart from a couple of issues (wiring loom, stater etc) all under warranty, this bike is a hooligan. I have had/rode many, many jap sportsbikes but this is the most fun, ear to ear grin bike I ...

  • Buell 1125CR-just bought mine last week
    By  (I am an Owner) on May 25, 2009

    That's right! I just got one last week and I'm already attached to this thing like glue. It feels right, it looks great (got the red one) and it hauls major butt and it's not even broken in yet. Maybe it's not everyone's cup of tea or maybe you like riding what everyone else rides, but not me. In ...

    If you dare to go your own way and can appreciate a motorcycle that was designed to do the same, then this could be your bike.

  • WOW
    By  (I am an Enthusiast) on Jan 22, 2009

    I test rode a black 1125CR last week, and all I can say is "WOW". What an amazing bike. I have owned several sport standards (ZRX's, T-bird Sport, ect...) and this motorcycle is a whole new beast. Great comfort, wonderful power, super handling. The only detail, minor I might add, is the batbike ...

    But Im sure I will enjoy this as my next bike.

  • OMG. Just what I asked for.
    By  (I am an Owner) on Sep 27, 2008

    Had mine for a week, and have fallen in love all over again. More power that I can use, humane ergos that will only get better when I add the optional high/wide bars, and did I mention the power? Faster than my Lightning 1200 without going over the 6000 rpm breakin cap. Whatever your preconception ...

  • I got to ride this bike....
    By  (I am an Enthusiast) on Sep 12, 2008

    I was at the Mid-Ohio raceway and got a ride on the brand new 1125CR courtesy of Buell as a VIP. Thanks Buell! :)

    It is an amazing bike and quite frankly I think I may sell my 1125R to get one. The reason it is feels so light and nimble, and flat out goes!!!

    Buell ...
