Thread: 1190RS

  1. #1
    Just released the teaser at ratpakrecords.com

    Pretty much an 1190RR but with all the stuff that makes it street legal. I'm interested in the claim that it will be in direct competition with the BMW S1000RR. I want to start road racing next year and well the XB9SX won't cut it (although I love it to death) I kinda want one....Hope they sell them in Canada Any other thoughts???

    There is no way EBR can compete with traction control, electronic ABS, and electronic shift assist.

    yea, I have a big thought. Where are they going to sell them? At regular dealers? Who will actually carry them, are we going to end up with the same bs we get from hd dealers now? What's the price tag? Chain drive or belt? I've got plenty more questions

    I agree with dave. They just don't have the dollars to do what they need, hp isn't everything. But I would still love to have one!

    I'd love to see an 1190X. It will blow away the other "adventure" bikes.

    I am seriously thinking of parting out what I have from my current bike and buying the 1190 if it becomes available next year, little hesitant since it will be the first year of production and even more so now that Buell is even smaller.

    I dig Erik and like what he's trying to do...but seriously...competing with the S1000rr? That's like saying you've bred a new type of pitbull to race against greyhounds.
