Same place?   Anonymous Posted on Thursday, April 17, 2008 - 06:04 am:        Yes   Dano_12s Posted on Thursday, April 17, 2008 - 08:53 am:        Thanks Anon.dealer has put me on the list. Now get back to work and make those brackets!   Tasmaniac Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 08:10 am:        Has anyone purchased a steering damper for the 1125 from Buell race support yet? if so how much was it in USD?   Dano_12s Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 08:42 am:        They are waiting for the brackets to arrive. Mid May I was told.Should be about $420.   Xb9 Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 03:41 pm:        I just modified the steering damper from my XB9R for the 1125R. It is a Woodcraft-CFM that was offered in the early XB days but I don't see them advertised anymore. It's the one that mounts just above and in front of the lower triple clamp - has a bracket that attachs to the frame where the fairing/gauge stay is attached. I had to remove the knob on the end of the damper and shorten the rod some so it woudn't hit the inside of the pods. Also had to cut off a bit of the fork leg clamp where the damper mounts to it and open it up on the lathe 1mm to fit the larger fork leg dia. Works and looks great and it's tucked in clean if you're not looking for it you wouldn't know it's there. I'm sure they still would have the CNC programs for the brackets, call them and you may be able to special order? I think Woodcraft was making some of the brackets for Buell like the rearsets on the XBRR.   Arillius13 Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 05:03 pm:        So do you need a race license to buy this steering damper then? How about that lower fairing i see on the 1125r race bike? is that available through buell race support as well?   Fresnobuell Posted on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - 05:06 pm:        Ouch. $420. Is that true that you need a race license to buy from Buell Race Support?
