With the "back end up, front down" look. Not having that is actually one of the things that makes the 1125R more comfortable than your standard SS bike. You get on and your nuts aren't instantly slamming into the tank (or airbox in this case)
Thats the first comment I get from anyone that sits on my bike after riding a R1/6, GSXR, ZX6/10, or CBR, "man this thing is comfortable"

Very true, but that's only an advantage if you're looking specifically for comfort. My nuts are rarely in line with the tank, so it's not as much of an issue. Plus, I had a friend who shaved a little off the back of his seat and flattened it out and basically achieved the same thing. Honestly if I was going to buy a buell for comfort it would be a Uly. I know Buell is all about doing their own thing, but with the amazing looking 'fighters' out there like the SuperDuke (Sex on wheels!)/Speed Trip/Tuono I think they could have done a better job, hell I think the old SuperHawk looks better, and it has sidemount radiators. :idk:

the new 1125r's MGP says 35-54... FUCK... if they get that... with a 5.3gal tank... that's over 200 mile range... I think I just found my next bike... I'll give it another year and watch the forums closely for issues though.

By the time you're ready to buy they should be well sorted machines.

that's what I'm counting on... as it looks like they'll more than likely be the only affordable V-twin sport bikes left...

FYI... you can't USE all 5.3 gal very well...

I put in 5 gal even, and I pushed it to the pump. 168 miles

when the fuel light comes on, you have 25 miles period... unless you are riding hard... then you have about 15.
