What I read the CR is a little roomier. I am going ot head to a harley dealer in Long Island City tomorrow to sit on one to see how it feels. Theyre offering a killer deal of 9,999 dollars

Something I noticed was that the oil filter and engine case interfered with my feet. I only wear size 10.5.

I liked the R over the CR when i test rode one a few months ago, thats just me though, i liked the wind protection and I use my bikes more of a touring, canyon carving trackday bike so if it were my money i would def go for the R

it sucks being a broke ass graduate student... i would kill for an 1125R

From what Ihave read the gearing on the R is a bit better for canyon carving as well. thats the big pita on my priller running through the twisties I am constantly changing gears.
