I remember three years ago many of us swapping mileage on our 1125Rs. There were a number of riders here who were way ahead of me.

I've been riding mine since Jan. 2008 and I'm just shy of 27k.

What's on your ODO?

Ridenusa4l,

What do you mean between 80-100k, but you're at 25k?

April 09 1125 R purchased in March 2010, 16 000Km or metric Miles. Not many I know but since I stopped commuting on it, Most of them are Huge Grinning Km on windy backroads. Couldn't be happier, 2 x stators and now 2 x voltage regulators. Worn out more tyres than that!

i mean mine has about 25k miles, however the highest mileage I have heard of is between 80k-100k miles...i know for a fact that someone on this board is over 60k i believe....we just had a thread on this probably no more than a week or so ago. look it up.

all i will say...i am straight up jealous to those who have those kinda miles! lol

I know for a fact there's at least one 08 1125R with 100k miles on it. Sadly, not mine.

Mine's at 35k and has been pretty much static for the past 6 months since I moved. I should sell it. I'm not riding it often. It's too much bike for Seattle.

Got my '09 1124R in May of '09, it has 28,500 miles on it at the moment. I've made a number of changes to accommodate my 6'1" old body. IE; Knight Design 2" drop pegs, Corbin seat, 2" up & back handlebars, Harley grips, and Zero Gravity Double Bubble windshield. I can do a 300 mile day and feel like doing it again the next day.

Syonyk,

Wow! 100k in four years on a Buell 1125R?! That's amazing. I wonder what kind of riding this individual did to acquire that kind of mileage.

Neil(Ccryder) hasn't posted for a while but he rode his 11 to work every day for 4 years, 150 miles a day.
He has some serious mileage. His new job is much closer to home so his miles are growing much slower now.

Paul, I think, is the guy from the Portland area with HUGE miles on his 11. I forget his BWB name...
He was one of us "early adopters" that got our bikes in late 07-early 08.
I bought Loretta 14DEC07 and took delivery on the 18th.

I've taken 2 road-trips on Loretta, one to Texas and one to Homecoming without a hitch.
She has 28k now, hardly ridden this year... mostly on the Uly. it has 29k and it's an 09....
I am putting her on a lift at the shop and fixing a couple of things so I can start riding her more often.

About a 130 mile round trip commute up some awesome roads, pretty much year round.

For a while I was doing the counter-path somewhat regularly, and would see him in the evening and in the morning. 1125Rs are pretty distinctive when lit up!

Russel - not true! Shoot me a PM and let's ride sometime soon. It's nice today and i rode in (commute). Might get sprinkled on during the ride home, but happy to take it out and enjoy a crisp morning ride in.

Some great rides and would love to hook up with a fellow Badweber. Show you it's a great place to ride - maybe not like socal or NM for all-year riding, but we have mountains and some gorgeous places to ride!!

and to the topic of this thread i have about 13k on my 09 R. Not too much, but loved every mile so far!

PM enroute.

I commute on bicycle or motorcycle most days, and I think a 50cc scooter would be overpowered for the bulk of my riding.

I take the Blast if my fiancee doesn't take it most of the time, or the XB9. They're both happier than the 1125 sitting in traffic and creeping at 5mph, or putting along in a line of traffic at 25mph.

I did take the 1125 to Tacoma last night. It was nice getting it out on the highway on the way back - I'd forgotten what acceleration actually felt like. It'll probably be another few months before it moves again. I really should get a battery tender.
