The
new for 2008 Buell 1125R superbike is powered by the first water-cooled
Buell since the company's first bike. The 72 degree V-twin comes
from the Austrian firm Rotax, and develops 146 hp and 82 ft-lbs
of torque at 8000 rpm.
Like all Buell motorbikes the 1125R is unconventional in its
design. Fuel is carried in the frame, the exhaust is positioned
low and exits just before the rear wheel, there are two radiators
one positioned either side of the engine, and the final drive
is via belt instead of chain.
