Although I love my Nightster I am getting a bit fed up with HDMoCo at the moment and am just looking at my options. Does anybody have experience of the 1125CR (not the R)?   I would probably fit the higher handlebars for a better riding position and a proper pillion seat for my girlfriend - anyone know what the 1125CR is like two-up?

My only worry would be that they haven't been out long. Any design fault that might show it's face won't get fixed as there won't be an R&D dep't to redesign it. They'll just keep replacing the faulty part till they run out of bits. other than that, i think the intakes look shite. Nice rotax engine tho.

I think it has 'Marmite' styling cos I love those scoops! Besides have you seen the chassis? Mmmmm...   I am hoping they will have learnt their lessons from the 1125R debacle. That model has been around for a while and the CR is only a variation on that.

TeeCee - prices should be tumbling shortly as Harley are binning the Buell brand, where that will leave owners for spares is a bit debatable.

prof - that was one of the reasons I was interested in it. List price £8080 but you can ride one away from the dealers now for £5495... (c'mon exc - now THAT is affordable! Wink)   Seems to be no problems with the parts/warranty for the foreseeable future according to Erik Buell.   Took an 1125CR out for a test ride today from Edinburgh dealer but it wasn't the bike I hoped it would be. Still a very interesting bike though!!

Damn good price,think my mate Steve will upgrade depending on what he's offered on his 07 model which cost him about 8k back then..currently not affordable for me though!lol

Shame you didn't like it TC (maybe I'll do a head shave to raise money so I can buy one moth ball it for my retirement fund lol) bloody good price for a brand new cycle though................
