This is a subscription only online motorcycle review.

http://www.motorcycle.com/manufacturer/buell/buell -1125r-first-look-61314.htm

Nice review, a bit late in coming, but goes directly to the point: how will the bike compare with the likely competition: Ducati, Aprilia, KTM etc.

Interesting read.

That is definitely good reading!.... I like how it still felt very neutral and not aligned with any bike in particular. Just gave a good review and prediction of the new bike.

I cant wait for the "thrashing" on the track by the magazines when they finally get to ride the 1125. I would love to hear what non-badweb and non buell promotional devices have to say about this bike. Even though I am already totally sold on buell as a whole it is still good to hear from the neutrals and the opposed.

Very interesting, thanx.

I noticed what I think was a cutaway pic on the scoop showing the built-in crash absorption system, cool!

NOTE: www.motorcycle.com recently changed from a "subscription only" publication to a free publication. Now we can all have a good read.

Yeah, but the new forum areas are tedious to navigate and content is not nearly as good as it was with the old format.

Thanks for noting that - I'd have skipped the link/article otherwise...

Yeah, I like the old motorcycle.com website. The forums and comments were hilarious. Now, I'm not even sure how to get to them. Plus, they deleted a lot of their old archived articles.
But that was the best article yet on the 1125R.
