Author Message   Brumbear Posted on Monday, June 13, 2011 - 08:56 pm:        Well I gotta tell ya 874 miles in 3 days in absolute drenching downpours some of the time and the bike well it was amazing no problems and flawless. Thats all I gotta say bout that. The only thing wrong with my CR sometimes is me I am a little subdued by the power availability in the machine. I was more comfortable and actually turned faster on the XB. You could throg hell of the xb and not worry about loosing control the CR if ya forget for a mille second what your on it can bite ya on the ass. But I could think of worse problems to have.   Americanmadexb Posted on Monday, June 13, 2011 - 09:56 pm:        +1 I think my xb was much more fun on the streets for the same reasons you mentioned. I have to really pay attention to throttle input thru corners on the 1125. With the xb it was like second nature. I miss my Ss... R.I.P.   Nukeblue Posted on Monday, June 13, 2011 - 11:13 pm:        i agree! i tend to tip-toe through the corners now. thought it was just me getting old... gotta love those third gear power wheelies though!   Kinder Posted on Tuesday, June 14, 2011 - 12:47 am:        I felt the same about my Ss till I got my suspension properly dialed in. Now I'm much faster on the CR.
