    New Buell in the house!

    Well, the boy is home from Iraq safe and sound! went and picked him up on tuesday at Ft Dix and wed morning we were back on the road to pick up this 1125r in Frederick Md. its an 08 with 200 miles. what a cool bike,alot differant than the xb12 but its supposed to be! It feels more like a jap bike to me and a little heavier but man will it go!!enjoy the pics.

    very nice... have him give us a review when he gets a few more miles on it. I got my eye on the CR...

    interesting note on the Rotax motor. I've been reading about the 1125, but I haven't seen this in print. The sales manager at Cerini told me this... for what it's worth.

    I thought Buell made a deal with Rotax to purchase a motor they were already building, but that's not true. Buell actually designed the whole motor, then they went and found someone to build it to their specs. BRP Rotax was the only company that would work with them. Pretty cool, I think.

    I still like the chug-chug sound of the xb12 with a drummer on it, He got a sweet deal on it, the dealer was overstocked so he got it out the door for $7,000...plus Pa tax. what the hell...it was Obamas money anyhow ! plus they through in the 2010 grahpics kit and a sport seat that is backorderd.
