Just got the new issue (comes with AMA membership) and on the cover is a pic of the 1125r. Inside they have a 2 page
write-up. It's very complimentary of the design and execution, although they still don't acknowledge the fact that tire
choice was the culprit in the much belabored "tendency of the XB series to stand up under braking".

Ya, I was getting gas on Sunday and saw this at the counter @ 7-11 so I bought it, and forego getting 5 bucks extra in gas..LOL

Dam good review though, despite the bikes not being tuned in..

But what I liked to hear about it was the part where they said it would wheelie coming out of corners...That means more and longer wheelies!!

Congrats Jaime!
