heres a link to the Buell wed site http://buell.com/en_us/bikes/sportbike/1125R/ take a look and let me know what you think of the bike. I seen it at Laguna Seca. It has a Rotax engine putting out 146 hp and 82 ft/lbsof torque.
not bad for a V-twin.

So they either got the engine from Aprilia or they copied it lol. Still a Buell though, and that explains a lot. They can put whatever they want on it, it isn't up to spec with the other V-Twins out there.
However, it is something different that people may buy.

Saw it at Laguna... Not impressed. It may have some good features but on looks; it's a bike only its mother would love. :p

Wonder if there is any relationship between Can Am and Rotax.

No Rotax was the one making the Aprilia V-twin motor. So its a good motor and the Buell is a fun bike to ride it just need a good powerplant. I think I'll give it a year and go buy an '09. Or I may buy the KTM :confused:
