Dang,This is just Tease, Someone has got to pull that curtain back wonder if it's an newer 1190 type option,see the morror(left)Is that a fresh air (RAM) hose. Oh Man!!!!Phooey.Can't afford to cuss, niece gets money .25cents per word.I'm on the marine honor system. :D[up]
 
Damn that CBR is sexy.

I bet the 1190rs will look like the 1125 with better radiator setup and the tail section. Will be nice [up]
 
I don't like full faired bikes. Just not my thing. They nice for racing and track days but for everyday riding I take a streetfighter. Hopefully Erik will come up with one. Like xbs/xbr and 1125R/1125CR.

You mean this? Pretty sure it's already in the works.

The new 1190RS has a LOT of design and parts in common with the 2011 Barracuda that Harley Davidson killed before it was real.

Notice the deliciously thin front spoked wheels and uber sweet rear machined subframe? Frame and tank/airbox looks familiar? Same tail and tail/brake/turn signals. Same bits on the 1190RS.

BuellerPilot that is awesome. I would love to see something come out looking like that.The only thing is the chain drive.I love the no mess belt on my XB12Ss
 
I predict the 1190RS will be a near exact same bike as the Barracuda with some differences. One being the entire front fairing and headlights. I prefer the 1190 slightly narrower and pointy-er than the Barracuda's wide 1125R style anyway. Every thing else looks to be same so far from the spy shots and teaser pics. Same frame, swing arm, chain drive, front wheel, air box, sub frame, tail pieces very similar, same tail lights, same mirrors etc. I wonder if he cannot do the under slung exhaust because Harley won't let him? I hope not.
