Erik Buell Racing visar 1190RX

Erik Buell Racing föddes när Buell Motorcycles lades ner och nu presenterar de sin senaste sporthoj, 1190RX. Bågen baseras på modellen 1190RS, väger in på 207 kilo och har en V-Twin på 185 hästar och 137 Nm. 0-100 km/h ska gå på 2.8 sekunder och toppfarten anges till över 300 km/h.

På tekniksidan hittar vi en digital display, traction control och led-strålkastare för att nämna några saker. ABS finns dock inte. Precis som på tidigare Buell-modeller använder sig denna av en enorm bromsskiva på 386 millimeter med åttakolvsok monterad där fram i fälgen. Sulorna är i dimensionen 190/55 ZR-17 bak, 120/70 ZR-17 fram.

Produktionen drar igång i december och priset för kalaset ligger på 18 995 dollar.

Pressmeddelande

Newly launched EBR Motorcycles debuts on European market with EBR 1190RX sportbike

ORLANDO, Florida – After months of speculation from motorcycle dealers, media and

sportbike enthusiasts, Erik Buell Racing (EBR) today unveiled their latest sportbike, the EBR

1190RX, at the American International Motorcycle Exposition (AIMExpo) in Orlando.

While the new, street-legal high performance motorcycle is a direct descendant of EBR’s race-
bred limited edition 1190RS Super Bike, the 1190RX features many new rider-focused features

and has substantially raised the bar over competitive sportbike offerings. Most notably, the

new motorcycle weighs-in at just 419 pounds, yet boasts 185 horsepower and 102 ft.-lbs.

of torque from its ET-V2 1190 cc V-Twin engine. Few, if any, production motorcycles have

ever produced this level of peak torque. The 1190RX’s wide torque band assures riders that

ample power is available in every gear, and 21 traction control settings keep the power within

the rider’s control in all road conditions. Aside from boasting the broadest torque band, the

new engine delivers a combined highway/city fuel economy of over 40 mpg. Likewise, the

hydrocarbons and nitrous oxide exhaust emissions produced by the 1190RX are less than 25%

of those allowed by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards. Carbon monoxide

emissions are just 6% of the level allowed by U.S. federal regulations.

The breakthrough engine design and EBR’s racing-inspired handling features are coupled

with all-new styling and scientifically-derived aerodynamics that rival the performance and

drivability of any superbike produced by any manufacturer in the world. The multi-function

digital instrument gauge cluster allows the rider to adjust performance parameters such as

traction control, as well as to access numerous functions including track performance data,

service intervals and system diagnostics.

Perhaps the most surprising announcement during the unveiling and accompanying

press conference, however, is the 1190RX’s price: The new model is being offered with a

Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of just $18,995 (US market).

The EBR 1190RX is completely assembled at EBR’s facility in East Troy, Wis., combining EBR’s

in-house engineering and manufacturing capabilities with specialized components from world-
class suppliers around the globe. Full-scale production is scheduled to begin in December, 2013.

EBR Europe

At the same time of the introduction of the 1190RX in the USA Erik Buell Racing has announced

that the famous brand will also be represented on the European market. The European import

organization will be headed by Dutchman Edwin Belonje, Managing Director Erik Buell Racing

LLC. Belonje has gained vast experience in the international motorcycle industry and has a

broad automotive & motormotive experience in all aspects of sales throughout Europe but also

in Asia. He has excessive experience with retail, wholesale and manufacturer wholesale. Before

his appointment Belonje was Managing Director - Europe for Zero Motorcycles Inc and prior to

that International Sales & Marketing Manager, Europe & Asia for Triumph Motorcycles Limited.

Edwin Belonje: “It is a great challenge for me to build and expand the famous Erik Buell Racing

brand in Europe. I am convinced that with the innovative capabilities of EBR Motorcycles the

products will be distinctive in the market place. My first task is to set up a European distribution

network. I am impressed by the EBR 1190RX, but there is much more to come. I am convinced

that EBR will gain a strong position in the market in the near future.”
