careful clutch lever modulation will allow you to slip it manually and even adjust how much engine braking/ back it in you want. who needs a slipper clutch?

I stayed out too long Saturday on the lake and missed getting a chance to ride the 1125R. I still plan to but guess I won't be getting the free gear cable lock.

I went to Pig Trail H-D on bike nite and rode the CR and the R versions of the 1125. Your either gonna love it or hate it. After 5 in line 4s, a parallel twin and an SV, I Loved it. I pick up my R on Wednesday. It needs the bigger rear sprocket /pulley of the CR, but its a blast! Like drinking Dr Pepper after a lifetime of Pepsi. I think it will work great in the Ozarks!

What he said and congrats none the less.

I never did ride one but the wife is out of town this weekend and that sounds like some good "filler time" to play around with even if I did miss out on the freebie.
