All new ... Buell's 1125CR
|
BUELL have launched a spin-off from the 1125R, the 1125CR. The company have called it part sportbike and part street.
According to Buell: "..the naked styling and clubman-style handlebars give a respectful nod to the nostalgic era of Café Racers, but styled in a thoroughly modern package. A 146-hp liquid-cooled V-Twin engine is geared down for optimum acceleration. Sinister styling. Sophisticated technology. The 1125CR, Erik Buell's 21st century interpretation of the classic Café Racer, is a new motorcycle that
defies convention.
"Positioned behind the black-anodised, tapered aluminium handlebars and streamlined headlight and flyscreen, the rider has a wide-open view forward that intensifies the sensation of speed. At 170kg, the 1125CR is the lightest litre-class naked street motorcycle on the market, and combined with 146 horsepower, it offers the best power-to-weight ratio in the category.
We expect the 1125CR to cost around £8000 when it is launched. It will be available in Black or Red.
