Aiight, let's get some info on them. Mods, or anything else interesting about them.
Obviously the SV has some non-stock parts on it, and the Buell had an interesting trip to Tucson.

and after 20k miles you'd still be hard pressed to find scratches on the plastics. definitly a well taken care of machine.

Ok so a little info about my bike...
Its an 07 VFR Interceptor
Color is Candy Dark Red...mmmmm
I bought it new about a month and a half ago and have 3800 miles on it so far!
Not shown in the pic is the new stainless steel scorpion exhaust I put on at 2800 miles...sounds so much better than stock.
It is a fairly different bike, it is the only motorcycle that I know of that has VTEC, yes like Honda cars...but kinda different.
Until 6800 RPM the engine operates on 2 valves a cylinder and then 6800 and up it opens 2 more per cylinder, this gives good torque in the low end and plenty of breathing room in the top end. It is also semi unique in that it has a V4 engine, and has a single sided swing arm.
I am totally in love with the bike and cant wait to ride her every chance I get .
Short list of mods:
Stainless Steel Slip Exhaust
K&N Filter
Rear Seat Cowl
CW Werks fender eliminator kit
Silver star ultra headlight bulbs
Techmount mount with radar detector
Tank zipper guard

Coz has a vid of him on his VFR going up Lemmon and you can hear when the vtec kicks in.
I gotta give props to the Buell though. That thing is killer and very unique.

I chose the 1125R for severall reasons. First, it has a rediculous amount of torque and I dont have to wait until 8 grand to get it. Yes, the bike will turn 8 grand, it redlines at 10.5. It is rated at 146hp, and 86ft lb. The bike is fast  . Second, its different <--- kinda like that guy, but in a cooler way. Third, its engineered very well. The bike is stock for 2 reasons. One, I just bought the thing, and two, no one makes anything for it yet. More reason two than one. The bike is relatevely expensive though. Sticker is set at 12999.99. Thats a lot of money and I almost didnt get it because of that fact. 2 weeks ago, I was visiting my family in IlLinois (the s is silent) and just for poops and hahas, I stopped in the harley dealership by my moms house to see what they had. You guessed it, they had an 1125R. Keep in mind, the bike STARTS at 12999.99. The guy was willing to be swayed. I walked out of there with a brand new (made last month) 1125R for 11900.00. That included everything. Mind you, I still had a plane ticket home. Didnt matter. I bought the bike and rode it back to Tucson. Thats 2100 miles. So you should definetely vote for the BUELL, it does power wheelies at 8000 feet with no problem, just ask stealth, he did it.
