I am a long time sport bike guy...Raced a long time too (12+ years / AMA Pro for a few, etc.). I have had well over 20 sport bikes in the last 10+ years or so and just spent a nice weekend in the NC mountains. The Dragon, Cherahola, Blue Ridge, etc. Put about 600 FAST miles on it in a little over two days up there.

REALLY like this bike. One of my favs of all time. I have had other twins (RC 51, 996, SXV 550, etc.). This one really handles nicely, power is sufficient, etc. I also think it really fits my style of riding really well (I know this is subjective).

Anyway, I was all sold on the new BMW1000RR as my next bike before I took this trip. While I will have the BMW, I will NOT be selling the 1125!

Anyway, thanks to a great informative site and well as a great bike!

I used a Contour HD helmet cam...Sound needs to be worked on...Way too much wind noise at speed.

Zracer,

I spent time on the Dragon, too...Saturday and Sunday. I did the route early each day. Rte 28 was a blast, also.

Nice video. I am waiting for a friend to send raw vid files of my ride.

I had to DRIVE 10 hours to get those roads! I live in Florida...Very boring here.

Terp, great roads for the Buell. Just "tractor" right out of the turns! Good stuff...Can't wait to go back.
