I think it's pretty damn cool. I wonder what it'll cost.

It's only a few pics here, but I am not digging the side air scoops.

I cannot make out the exhaust very well, but it looks kinda cool.

well there are some parts that are really cool, I mean, the brakes look cool, the scoops are sweeet, the frame, and tail looks fine, the motor is good and visible, its only that fatter, early 90's cbr styled ultra fat looking front fairing that looks ghey.

 

[CliveS2R]

Thats a hot bike. I would like to see more angles, but from this one, it looks sexy. And apparently that fairing is designed to make a "comfortable rider enviornment".

Re: New Buell 1125R

I thought it said vacuum assisted slipper clutch.

Looks like fun, much as I hate to say it.

 

[motolocopat]

Never mind, now that higher res pics are out, that thing is ugly...

It will defintely have to perform. Otherwise, I predict stagnant sales.

Well if these numbers are ANYWHERE close

72 degree liquid cooled 1125cc Rotax twin.
10,500 RPM redline
146 horsepower
84 ft-lbs. torgue
Six speed transmission

You would have to be dragging an anchor or they'd have to stick it in a fatboy chassis for it not to perform pretty darn sweetly :

Like the swingarm and the exhaust has some sort of strange appeal to it but that front middle part looks like a 9 month pregnant womans belly

It costs $11,995 according to the specs page on the 1125R mini-site:

Re: New Buell 1125R

Okay, I take my comment back. Now that I see the high res photos, it looks more like Big Gulp sized SVS1000 meets McDonnell Douglas F4 Phantom. [cheeky] [cheeky] [cheeky]

Geez look at the girth of the intake and fairing! You can barely see the rider in these shots. What's Buell gonna get into next? Girder bridges?

A sportbike without buttloads of wind blast.

Re: New Buell 1125R

I like it

but a vacuum assisted clutch...why?

.. a nice way to say it sucks?



seriously, the front end looks vaguely like a 748 in the headlight area.. not the rest of the bike, just the horizontal layout and the square fairing a bit

72 degree V-Twin??

Just like a MotoMorini!!

 

[Euclid Baker]

Re: New Buell 1125R

OK, on second look, the resemblance to the 748 is passing..

Here is what they used for inspiration:

The BLACK MANTA!

sorry, none of the CBRs ever looked like that.

1992 model:

 

[rscontrino]

Anyone want to photo shop it into a different color. I bet a nice royal blue would look slick on it.

Thanks

Re: New Buell 1125R

Yeah

I think your going to get a ton of Wind protection which I wont complain about.

Re: New Buell 1125R

doesn't look so wide with a rider on it.
