got the front to get a matched set.
Two questions:


1. Does the 1125 have different lenth forks like the XB? Meaning..it's impossible to use a front stand that lifts from the bottom of the forks?

2. Does the 1125 have a hyraulic clutch or cable?

It's starting to cool down in Boston.

Already lining up lots of fun wrenching projects to pass the time (including a frame-off rebuild of my old minibike )

Two answers.

1. No, the forks are the same length, I just figured I'd get a stand to lift from the tripple to make tire changes easier. I already have a fork stand for the SV. I got the pins for both the 1125 and the SV.

2. Hydraulic. And I love it.

I'm about done too. As soon as my parts come I'm throwing them on, going for one last ride and putting it away. It's cold as shit here.

I'm done for the season. It's been in the low 30's and high 20's in the mornings and I don't see it warming up any time soon.
