Well, I sold my 1125r (fortunately, I got ALL my investment back). I dunno, the thing just seemed like a grenade waiting to detonate. 'Twasn't really my riding style either as it seemed to only have two speeds-stop and GO LIKE HELL. I was truly destined to loose my driving privledges, and at my age, walking everywhere is NOT as much fun as it used to be. Someone will surely get a spectacular motorcycle as under my care, she ran like the proverbial spotted primate. I have already replaced her with a 2003 XB9S with only 4K miles (to be my XB12S's stablemate). So much more fun (for me) than the 1125r. Spending my time now bringing the XB9S "up to Speed" (recalls and upgrades). I guess I'll have to change my screen name now. Oh well, at least I'm sure that I won't have the same regrets as when I sold my '98 S3 (was wrecked two weeks after the guy bought it).
