your opinion on the new Buell 1125R

[jsg]

LeFox I like that look but you forgot the rads lol

The ride of a Buell it the whole reason I bought mine...but they have a lot to learn, in my humble opinion, about styling of full bodywork bikes. I was never a huge fan of the XBR bodywork and how those bikes looked....that's why I bought an XBS. No offense meant to those who ride them. To each there own. But even those bikes look like beautiful pieces of art compared to that thing. I'm all for different...but that looks.....I dont even know what that looks like. It looks worse than a Katana....and I thought that would never be possible.

buell choses to make their bike, even their races, "open". meaning eric loves the view of the mechanical parts, which is actually part of the charme of a buell.

but the new 1125r was better behind a full fairing like:



for me personally, i like the hd sound of the buell, but i also like a duc- or rsv-sound.
so aslong as i can keep the steering characteristics and the low-end torque of a buell (xbs), i'm happy.

Great pics, i am guessing photoshop? I kinda like the bottom photo, makes the 1125r look agressive yet still retain the sleek look.

i didn't make them, though...a fellow buellrider made them, he has more time on his hands :D

3rd picture is the fairing of the xbrr and the cooling intakes are borrowed from ferrari :p

1st & 3rd is from buellgekk and another i found on the net...

I love the new model. I cant wait till the books come in and I can start breaking one down.

[DruAdams]

yeah i noticed the ferrari influence, but it looks really good, but in black it is more remanisant of the F-117 Stealth Fighter, especially with the angular look

I am flabbergasted!!!
How the hell did y'all do that SO FREAKIN' QUICK!!!
Wow!!!:p

Suddenly I'm not so negative!


Love the cleaned up look!
W/O them scoops, it changes everything.
I don't think the first is feasable,
'lesson the radiator's somewhere I can't see it,
but the overall change is OUTSTANDING!
My bud SirChadley (who loves hunter green)'s gonna ****!
Thanx for them pics!!!

all i have to say is i am damn glad that buell finally made a liquid cooled engine to hang with the rice. end of story, the cosmetics can be altered, but i say hell yeah to the 1125r
