Description

10. XX miles. extremely clean. stock except for EBR clutch cylinder upgrade. recently replaced stator. Starting a company and need to cut costs to a minimum so sadly this toy is up for sale. Bought in 2011 with 200 miles on it from Bob Weaver Motorsports near Niagara Falls. NY and moved to NC shortly after. This bike has taken me on 6 hour rides many times. been trailered to mountains for weekend mountain rides. and on a 1000 mile/3-day trip as well. It has never been down and will pull the front wheel up rolling on the throttle in 3rd gear. 375 lbs dry and 150 hp. The clutch cylinder was replaced early in its life. which is standard procedure on the 1125's. but has never given me an issue since. The stator was replaced last summer (also standard procedure) by Carolina Coast Harley Davidson. Since the replacement I have only put roughly 1. 00 miles on the bike since work has significantly cut down my time to ride.  This bike has been fantastic and I will buy another as soon as I have the opportunity.  Current issues:-There is a crack in the display (shown in pictures) that has been there since 2012. My only guess as to how it occurred is someone hitting it walking by. but it has not been a problem. rain does not get in to it.  -As with many of the 1125's the gas and check engine light come on and go out without reason sometimes. Carolina Coast tried to figure out the cause. and the Buell boards have hundreds of theories. but it has never caused any rideability issues. -There are no other issues. Here's an excerpt from one magazine review to go into more detail:"Putting the bike in motion is an 1125cc V-Twin (built by renowned Austrian engine manufacturer Rotax to Buell specifications). that sports all the features a high-performance engine requires; liquid-cooling and 8-valve. DOHC architecture utilizing a Formula One-derived "finger follower" valve actuation system claimed to reduce friction and allow for faster valve open-and-closing time.  Internally the two pistons are separated by a narrow angle of 72-degrees and slide within a 103 x 67. 50mm bore/stroke. Fuel-injection feeds two 61mm throttle bodies and the gas/air mixture is pummeled to a respectable 12. 3:1 ratio inside the engine. Three internal counter-balancers help mitigate vibration generated by reciprocating inertia. while a dry sump engine oil lubrication system helps keep mechanical losses to a minimum.  Power is transferred to the rear wheel via a six-speed transmission that employs a Hydraulic Vacuum Assist (HVA) Slipper-Action clutch. A completely maintenance-free belt final drive complements the set-up. Harnessing all 146 horsepower is a thick aluminum frame that uses the engine as a stressed member. An equally beefy cast-aluminum swingarm mounts to a pivot point within the engine case. A 3-way adjustable (spring preload. compression. and rebound) Showa monoshock connects the swingarm and a forward pivot point on the engine case. while an equally adjustable inverted Showa 47mm fork handles front suspension duties. Complementing the sturdy chassis is an equally heavy-duty 375mm front brake rotor and large 8-piston caliper. The rotor itself mounts directly to the wheel. while the caliper uses four-individual brake pads. Buell terms its setup. ZTL2 (Zero Torsion Load) technology. and it's designed to disperse energy loads more efficiently and is claimed to be lighter than conventional dual rotor/caliper applications. Out back a 240mm conventional rear braking disc is clamped down by a double-piston caliper that's integrated into the inner surface of the swingarm. thus eliminating the extra weight of an external caliper carrier piece.  Swing your leg over the new 1125CR. and you'll be surprised by how small it feels between your legs. Pick it up off the side stand and you notice that its 375-pound dry weight feels low and centered. Reach forward to the thick clubman-style handlebars. and your torso is pitched forward. close to the front wheel. An equally aggressive set of high-mounted footpegs push your knees into the carved recess of the matte-black frame and pseudo fuel tank. The 1125CR utilizes Buell's fuel in the frame system. while the traditionally-located fuel tank actually houses a ram-air equipped 12-liter pressurized airbox. Turn the key. thumb the starter button and the big V-Twin comes to life without hesitation. At idle. there's no mistaking this bike from anything coming out of Japan. The sound bellowing out of the low-slung exhaust is just the right amount to draw some wanted attention. yet even at wide-open throttle its tune doesn't reach annoying levels.  Winding out the engine to redline exposes a visceral acceleration experience that can become addictive. Yet the engine is also fit to be short-shifted through its plump mid-range. And despite what your senses lead you to believe. around the track. the key to going fast is to just grab another gear and ride the wave of asphalt-grabbing torque.  The Italian-made Magneti Marelli instrument display provides you with an assortment of data headlined by the easy-to-read swept analog tachometer. Directly below there's a small multi-function LCD display that includes a bevy of electronics: an integrated shift light. digital speedo. odometer. dual trip meters. lap timer (records up to 99 lap times). ambient air temperature. coolant temperature. gear indicator. average and instant fuel consumption. miles to next service display. low fuel (plus miles traveled on reserve). high beam. neutral. turn signals. and clock. Also standard is a four-digit pin enabled security system with an integrated ignition immobilizer. "Technical Specifications:Engine: 1125cc Helicon V-Twin.
