1190RX rumor/news

[09BuellXB9SX]

are those pics a kit or soemthing? looks good

 

[DrogeN Omen]

yeah they are from a build called the Manticore project.
the guy is making these out of regular fiberglass and full kit is 9000euro

yes its a crazy price to spend on a bike that only costs about $7000USD now

they look good but i would say there is only really about $3000 max worth of kit on thise standard XB's

the guys a bit crazy if he thinks he will sell these kits for $9000euro

 

[DrogeN Omen]

here's some other pics of the kit.

i think this guy pretty much just copied the 1125R/CR Typhon project the Pegasus Racing did 3 years ago.

looks awesome, i'd like to have that set up for my xb

 

[BuddhaBuell]

only thing on that kit that I would be down with is the rear sub frame, that is some sweet looking machining.

 

[DrogeN Omen]

sweet looking subframe no where near $9k worth though

 

[09BuellXB9SX]

Id say realistically for me to buy it, and trust me i wish i could, $1500-2k tops and 2k pushing the limit.

anyway back on track with EBR street bike release in October.

who's going to it?

if you do, make sure you take HD video and high res photo's of all sides of the bike.

take a laptop with you to make sure your the first to post pics and video before the press and bike reviewers that seem to know little to nothing about bikes get their dirty hands all over them


what you recon the naming convention means?

AX = Adventure Cross
RX = Race Cross
SX = Street Cross

???

maybe this time he will develop an EBR dirt bike like he was going to with Buell?

or a Super Motard
