54F Ok, I don't have an 1125R but have dreamed of having one. Oh well, will enjoy my ride that I have and hope to do lots of track days this year. Also in the process of learning the dirt. A kawasaki KLX 140 is in my future.

Wait a minute, isn't this for the younger folks!!! Am definitely enjoying my life.

42 Male. Picked it up from the dealer and took it to Jennings GP to do some laps with it. It sucked to have to keep the revs below 6,000 RPM.

I just put 200 break-in miles on it today.

Young enough to ride sportbikes... Old enough to do it safely. Sex - Yes.

Steve, your profile says 50+, theres a bunch of us there.
JPfive said he's 61...8 of 30, 27% are in their 50s.
I'd say you're good to go, we might even be a target group.

Other numbers -

Average age now - 38.1 years

Had to guess on Nick - I put you in the 50s group too. : )

Marines - 7 of 30 and 23% - had to look up devil dogs, cool legend.

Another average raiser! I'll be sixty-one April 1 ...Loving the hell out of my 1125 (480 miles since I rode it home from Danbury three weeks ago, in spite of on-again off-again winter weather!)... At Marcus Dairy this morning all the old farts(I count myself in that demographic!) had nice things to say about the bike and had a million questions...the average age at the Dairy on these winter mornings is definitely over 45! And oh yeah...I'm still a guy the last I looked.

I am glad to see that most 1125r buyers are people with experience that can recognize a good thing when they see and try one...That makes me even prouder to have chosen that marvellous piece of engineering.

Now I just hope that this superb machine will be able to make some rice fans cross over to the good side...

Keep the answers coming, this is interesting.

67 years young, been riding for 53+ years, the 1125 is my 9th Buell. Still have a 2000 S3T. So, right now I am claiming the title of "FOG" (fastest old guy)..1125 Rich

Yeah, OFG just doesn't ring.

'Kin-A man that's great, I am sure I'll still be riding in my 60s, 70s....
I still feel like a kid(if you don't count pain) although the Engineers here call me "Old Man".
Most of them are babies anyway.

I came across a young Marine last night with an 1125R. I do not know his age, but if he was 21yo I would be impressed. Then again I'm old.

Male
Sorry, I tried but no military as I was 4F because of the crushed knee I got in my M/C versus cage 32 years ago.

Blue Eyed Buell Girl rode on the back the other day. Does she count on the list? I have to keep the keys locked away from her now!

Btw the bike works very well two up!

Brad, 37 1125R VIN last 6 is B00187
Not sure what the military service is all about but 6 years USMC active, 12 years USAR and now a US Gov't contractor in Iraq. I put about 500 miles on it on R&R and love it.
