I've just finished running in an 09 Buell 1125R for a friend. Took it for it's first service today. The 09's black frame and swingarm look much better than the 08's IMO. Very nice..... Power is deceptive and the thing wheelies without effort. I really liked the instrument display but would have liked a fuel guage. Fairing is really good with no buffeting at all and your hands are well out of the weather. Mirrors actually work you can actually see whats behind you unlike my Ducati. I think the belt final drive is the way of the future. Those pirelli corsa 3's are awesome too.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The 1125CR suits me even better.
My images do not do it justice.
It all fits together in 3 dimensions.

Yeah I reckon the CR looks good. But the fairing on the R just works soooo well :)

It does - but I have no need of it - it's great that they have the option.
A Ulysses with the Rotax would be sensational. I wasn't into the idea at first.
Done a 1000ks on the motor now. Tune changed.
