The '''[[Buell]] 1125R''' was a liquid-cooled, four-stroke, 72-degree V-Twin Naked [[motorcycle]] produced by [[Buell]] between 2008 and 2011. Max [[torque]] was 81.87 ft/lbs (111.0 Nm) @ 9000 RPM. Claimed [[horsepower]] was 146.04 HP (108.9 KW) @ 9800 RPM. | The '''[[Buell]] 1125R''' was a liquid-cooled, four-stroke, 72-degree V-Twin Naked [[motorcycle]] produced by [[Buell]] between 2008 and 2011.

==History== | |||
In July 2007, [[Buell]] announced the 1125R, a [[sport bike|sportbike]] which departed from Buell's history of using [[Harley-Davidson Sportster]] based middle weight powertrains and tapping into the XBRR racing bike learnings. The Rotax powertrains uses four valves per cylinder, dual over-head cam, liquid-cooled 72 degree V-Twin displacing 1,125 cc and producing 146hp. It produces 83ft-lbs of peak torque but varies less than 6ft-lbs of torque from 3,000 to 10,500 rpm. There is a vacuum assist [[slipper clutch]] to give predictable drive performance in hard cornering and deceleration and a 6-speed transmission. | |||
The engine was developed by [[Rotax]] and built in Austria.<ref name="cw0510">{{cite news|title=The Demise of the Buell Motorcycle Company|last=Anderson|first=Steve|date=2010-05|work=[[Cycle World]]|accessdate=24 March 2010}}</ref> The design had significant Buell input, and was funded through Buell's cashflow, likely for 15–20% of the V-Rod engine development cost.<ref name="cw0510" /> | |||
The 1125R did not have a full fairing, as that would have put it in the same class as Japanese sportbikes.<ref name="cw0510" /> Erik Buell agonized over this, saying "it's not about listening to the voice of the customer."<ref name="cw0510" /> Cycle World said the 1125R was "a bit of an oddity."<ref name="cw0510" /> The bike was initially released with a crude spark map, leading to criticism of the bike at low speeds.<ref name="cw0510" /> The Rotax engine also ended up costing significantly more by production time due to fluctuation in exchange rates.<ref name="cw0510" /> | |||

It came with a 120/70 ZR17 front [[tire]] and a 180/55 ZR17 rear tire. Stopping was achieved via single 375mm disc, 6-piston caliper, ZTL2-type in the front and a single 240mm disc, 2-piston [[caliper]] in the rear. The front suspension was a 47mm Showa upside-down fork while the rear was equipped with a Showa fully-adjustable shock absorber. The 1125R was fitted with a 5.28 Gallon (20.00 Liters) fuel tank. The bike weighed just 375.01 pounds (170.1 Kg). The wheelbase was 54.49 inches (1384 mm) long. | It came with a 120/70 ZR17 front [[tire]] and a 180/55 ZR17 rear tire.
