The 1125R is much better with trail braking.

When we go back down this weekend, I want to see if I can get a demo on an 1125R. I've been hearing good things about them and they have several to demo.

Well I guess Nick and I will go play with the 250's some more, while you stand in line for the 1125. :lol: :nee:

You think they'd just do a sign up type deal.

Not for the 1125. Apperantly they are really popular so they are doing the demo's for them alittle different.

Well they are great bikes for sure. Honestly the most user friendly and ridable bike I've ever been on.

Buell does their sign ups for demo rides different than anyone else. Everyone else, you go stand in line, you tell them what you want to ride, and they have a grid with the schedule; they'll tell you, "Ok, the soonest I have for that one is 2:15..." or you ask them "What do you have on a ZX10R later this afternoon."

Buell doesn't do time slots, they do "groups" and they'll tell you "each ride is approximately 25 minutes; right now we're on group 12, and we're about 2 groups out for the bike you want." They recommend you come and wait a little while prior to your group, then they announce the group #, and it's first come, first serve from there.

EXCEPT for the 1125... the 1125 is in such demand that they make you just wait in line there till it's your turn. They only had either two or four I beleve (1 or 2 in each of the two groups of bikes) so it's much harder to get a turn on one of those. When we asked about them, the kinda laughed at us.

How long was the wait for the 1125?

:shrug: they said a couple hours. We didn't wait. Went and rode the ZX10R instead. :lol:

Yeah that sounds fun...NOT. Lets wait in line for a couple hours. F that. I'd like to ride a ZX10R.
