It could make an okish touring bike with convertabars and a DB screen, and possibly a more comfy seat. Biggest prob is the 140 mile range. It's a typical twin though, great torque and rideable power everywhere. |

You should be able to steal any left over 08's they may have. And as long as the recalls/ECM flashes have been done, it should be as good as an 09. (plus you get the cool blue frame/swingarm and anny edition)

Super clean bike...congrats on the sale. Definately check out the Buells. They will let you demo them too. Report back with your findings.

Got back into town today. Went by the closest Buell dealer ( which is 20 miles from my house. Harley dealers every fuckin 20 ft but none sell Buells)
Store was pretty busy (they also sell Harleys). I go inside and talk to the sales guy. They have two 2008s and 10 2009s 1125r. The best they will do is knock $1000 off an 08 and $300 off an 09. So I ask him if I can test ride it? He says "well dude, its cold outside...kinda windy...if you want to write up a deal first, I can get a plate" I told him that I wasn't buying dick till I test ride. Then he says he is new and has to ask his manager. I said fuck it and left. So, friday I am going to a different Buell dealer , then look at the Busas and a connie.
