EBR 1190RS

[agfish18]

I need a towel to clean up the mess in my pants.

 

[misternikko]

i think its ugly too. bring on the affordable stripped down ones.

 

[jzchev28]

i loveeeeeeeeeeee it, some of u guys are nuts fyi

 

[jerseymayhem]

love it! i'd send that exhaust to Randy to play with though.
The lights arent classic buell, but im sure HD is holding some of Erik's design patents.

Next up is hopefully a typhoon

 

[03Firebolt9R]

Ah, shucks, cant ride two up now.

 

[thnd3r]

I thought Pegasus Racing was going to start selling Typhon conversion kits this year too.

Bet you can't take off the fairings. Radiators need controlled airflow, that's why the 1125s have pods.

Love the look, except the headlights. Put the 1125 lights back on and it would rule.

When I first saw the 1125R .. I thought it was the ugliest bike around! Now though, I see it as a gorgous work of art.... cheesy I know [smirk]
I think it's the same with this bike ..

I know it's not what we're used to from a buell, but it's not really a street bike, so styling has to take a back seat to function. Besides, if you look at the kind of vomit other companies are trying to pass off as styling, I think it only make the 1190 look that much better....

It's pretty crazy to think about owning a motorcycle company, and not even knowing if you're gonna be able to own one of the bikes you're making! I'm sure he's got quite a few cool bikes stashed in his garage though.

“I was just telling the guys the other day, ‘I’ve got to have one of these,’ but I don’t have any money. My money’s all tied up in the business. I’ve got to have one of these. It’s so beautiful. It’s so very, very nice, and it’s exactly the kind of bike I would love to own. I just don’t know if I can afford it right now. I’ve got to sell my car and drive a Pinto or something. I’ve got to have it.”

Don't hold your breath on a naked version. I suspect that the next version will be a less ex$pen$ive, fully faired model. Hiding the radiators and what I suspect is a pretty large muffler/cat is going to be tough without bodywork.

I'm surprised that nobody mentioned the dual air scoops for the front caliper. If that's not a "Buell" answer to the question of brakes, I don't know what is. EB is determined to use ZTL-type brakes, and given the anticipated performance of this bike, had to channel air to the caliper to reduce the chance of heat-induced rotor warp.

Personally, I'm relieved that the lines are a little more orthodox. The broad, squat front view of the 1125R never worked for me. I suspect that this bike has seen some wind-tunnel time, or at least a bunch of CAD time, and that's an aerodynamically efficient shape.

As to the oil in swingarm, while it's clever, it does introduce some complexity and vulnerability to failure that's probably not acceptable for a race bike. The Rotax is a dry sump motor, IIRC, so there's an oil tank somewhere.

Sadly, unless by some miracle I see one at the track or at the IMS show, pix are all I'm gonna get.

And more....

[Jobe Zeebuh]

I like to bike. Will definitely buy a used one 5 years from now!

 

[bttrfngrz]

i think all the current styling looks fantastic! buell is just at the ducati level of styling.

Bike looks nice but me likey my underslung exhaust and not that pea shooter thing on this one

 

[twoguns]

is it me... or does anybody else agree that that is one big arse rotor on teh front. looks fatter then ever before.

If you look at it close enough, it has an underslung exhaust and those two pea shooters are held on by clamps coming out of it. Easily removed, but satisfies regulations.

Man... I can see me with that!! I want a BMW S1000RR (as a 2nd bike, of course), but it looks like my mind is changing... Hope EBR gets with Bombardier or something to bring mass production pricing to his produce. Hmmm.... tail chop, Hawk, ....hmmm
