There is a small group of White CR owners in UK which appear to be scattered around by HD to ensure they never see another. This is to ensure the mythical status; like the Unicorn.
Any attempts to disguise a 2009 model would end in tears and pointing with wizened fingers.

Garry Glitter tried to get people to join his gang and look what happened to him :shock:


Does anyone know how many white CRs were made?
I'm sure when I ordered mine there was 10 available.

You're up late Norrie. :shock: I'm on 6-6 nights so have to be :| I recall :maz: saying he thought 3 were coming to UK, yours is the 4th I've heard of but that's Scotland so may not count.There may well be others out there outwith the fold of UKBEG and probably a few in Europe tho I would be careful of going over there or at least publicising the fact for fear of ambush.

I'm nightshift as well mate. :(
Still last night tonight and then I'm off until Tueasday and we're going to York at the weekend for our Christmas night out.
I was just wondering how many were made and In fact how many 2010's were made in total. I heard only 60 were made but not sure if that's true.

Whether this is true or not but I understood there was only 5 or 6 white 2010 1125CR in the UK.

Better to have the coloured plastic instead of paint that can chip though if possible ;)

Cool. 8-)
It's funny because I always thought the 1125 was ugly and I rode one at Em's do earlier this year and didn't see what all the fuss was about.
However after having a test ride from my local dealer and on roads that I knew I was hooked. It handled just like my XB and had loads of power and it didn't seem to matter what gear your were in.
Of course it could have been the massive price cut but I didn't think I would like it and didn't think I wanted one until having that test ride.
I also wasn't sure about buying a white bike especially not seeing it before hand but I have to say I absolutely love the bike the bits. :D

I was told by a reliable source that there is a rebate in this country on registration...

If there was zero profit, why would all the dealers be bending over backwards to sell them :?:



There is a rebate but nothing like 5K.



I doubt HDUK will be giving much more than £500 per unit but I'm guessing there's "backend bonus" for the registration.

Isn't the first service included by the supplying dealer?


It 'free' if you paid full RRP for it...

Most dealers remove the 1st service as soon as they discount a bike!

I would check to make sure matey... :?:

'nothings free in this life anymore'
