The new 1125R also features the next generation of the Zero Torsion Load single-disc front braking system, with an 8-piston caliper to provide plenty of…

G.T.X.This is an industry revolutionizing motorcycle. The G.T.X. (Grand Touring X-Wedge) is a stretched ProStreet mutant of a bagger type motorcycle, and we consider it a weekend getaway vehicle. One of the proprietary and unique characteristics is the position of the passenger sitting in front of the rear wheel. This seating position places more weight in the center of the vehicle to produce better handling and comfort for both the operator and passenger. Other key features include an additional auxiliary fuel tank located under the seat, totaling 5 gallons. A large capacity oil tank feeds the new efficient and powerful…
