Almost makes me wish I would have waited 2 months, before I picked up my Cherry Bomb Red. Very Nice Bike!

For those that don't frequent the 1125 board, here's what I demo'd when I saw the SS.

Awesome, just awesome. Check out the "Mother of God" thread in the 1125r forum for my Buell-Geek review.

I wish my engine was all blacked out like that from the factory. It would save me alot of work in the future.

Yep but they should have gone with the same finish as the frame for the sub frame it would look even better IMO

I still like mine better!



Blacking everything out is the winter project : )

Nillaice, they are on there, they just blend in with the frame

Froggy,

What all do you have attached to your handlebars? GPS unit, some round thing? Can't tell, can you upload a pic as if you were siting on the bike. I'm curious

\threadjack


Veypor VR2 race computer





Garmin Zumo 550 GPS, the round thing behind it, (not visible) is the XM Radio antenna. Works great, only thing that sucks is that it gets muted when my phone rings, i rather hear my music than talk on the phone. : )

Well, in fairness if I mounted all of that on my R you wouldn't even see it unless you looked into the front faring. The S is just a bit exposed -- though personally I would have mounted the antenna on the cheesegrater (something it is actually good for!), and the Veypor and Garmen over(or even instead of?) the speedo.

Still a very nice looking bike -- love the blue -- wish they made full hero blue translucids for my R, I would switch in a heartbeat!

The black engine and black frame are almost too black, just not enough pop. The proof is in Froggy's bike with the blacked out frame and magnesium engine...

Yeah... I think Froggy's looks better than the factory black. I do like the black too though. Just not as much.

Toph, if you have Photoshop, you can use the save for web feature and it does a great job. A free alternative is Paint.Net ( www.downloadpaint.net )
