The typhoon is probably the ony bike that could tur me away from my XB.

The batman bike and the typhoon share the same builder. Pegasus race team.

you may need to translate the page so you can read it there's several ways to do this, easiest is with
windows 7 /internet explorer 8 right click empty space on page, then click translate or translate with bing .

 

[nativeXb12Rbuell]

I forgot to mention it is worth the translate and the read as it says towards the bottom !!!

The complete front will match available for XB models!
It is planned to offer bodyparts (also cooler!) as individual parts for 1125er models in the modular system!
To buy from 2011 at buell-parts.com

where the person that posted this info there is
unknown to me, maybe he has inside info(I hope), but like someone said before Erik says this is not the 1190rs , the 1190RS is not finished & has a ways to go.

I can't even find the kickstand, can someone tell me what I'm missing?? haha

 

[50dro]

I'm not sure how I missed this thread but I LOVE this bike!!!! Like the next natural progression for the XB Lightning!

 

[WALLSXB]

50dro------- i was thinking the same thing, it looks like the evolution of the Lightning , modernizing the current design. The more I look at it I wish Erik would announce it was the new 1190RS instead of a race teams project.

Nevermind, you were talking about the yellow bike above, not the typhon on the first page.

 

[jzchev28]

this bike is sweeeeeet!

p.s. what the heck is a "m-unit" ?

 

[GatorBuell]

Anyone want to buy a used xb lightning. I want this bike nay I need this bike.

 

[jsg]

I want it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BuellyBagger]

If they can manage to move forward with the 1190RS and the Typhon(which r both friggin awesome bikes) I hope they build something to the tune of a Ulysses with an 1190 in it. Talk About a do all monster of a bike. At least that way when i was ready 4 a new bike there'd actually b some thin better than my old one.

am i the only one that hates those 2 headlights? put the cr headlight on it it looks so mean

 

[WALLSXB]

Those 2 headlights are what gives it the Buell identity. That style goes back to 03 with the Lightning models . The CR light looks nice but IMO it lacks identity. It's kinda like a Rolls Royce or BMW grille , those 2 lights give it that Buell stamp. [smirk]

"Typhon" (Greek God etc etc).
