Hi everyone im now the proud owner of my first Buell 1125r, with a custom 'Bennetts' paintjob for Image design. Had my first blast on a reasonably dry scottish 'summers' day and was really impressed!!! The bike was great when opened up but handled like a snatchy pig when going through built up areas...is this a normal characteristic?

I thought the same thing when I saw the photo. Have not seen Martin since Em's day a few years back after a wet (but very enjoyable) week on the IOM.
