Cycle Week said "it makes a Ducati 749 feel like a dump truck " back in 2014. The original XB and into EBR geometry was the Honda RS250 GP bike. The early XB had the same 52" wheelbase. In around 08 they went to 54" , added 1" to the frame and 1" to the swingarm. All the weight is super low in the back of the frame and the front of the swingarm. EBR bought the rights to the 1125 motor, bored it to 1190 and added their combustion swirl technology to the heads and bumped a 150hp motor to 185. The motor is all EBR.
OC- so glad you got the advice on the TC. Those settings make learning this bike a great experience as well. You can start off getting used to the ergos and handling at TC 10 or 13 and then slowly wean yourself down to TC 0-3.
@@christianbinger1503 Yea the Sidwinder Silver RX was only a 26 bike run.... it's 25 now because I totaled one and bought another... was lucky to be able to ride at all after that bonehead mistake.
I offered up my 1190RX back in 2016, but it couldn't happen for risk/liability issues. I'm glad you finally got the opportunity - from a long-time owner of both, the RX (Hammerhead) and SX are amazing bikes. (P.S. keep TC off) (P.P.S. the quickshifter is amazeballs)
Considering this bike has been mechanically UN-changed for over a decade, this speaks volumes for how advanced it was when released in 2014. I got one because I know it's the very last 'analog' sport bike we will ever see. Real Riders>Electrons😁
Nice review. I wish you could have a pov hot lap on track anyway. So we can hear how the bike sounds and handles. Like how the bike reacts to rider input like twitches, shakes, and yaw when braking in different corners. No commentary 😅Thanks 👍
Everyone needs to experience these bikes. They are so different to what else is on the market (in a good way) that you have to feel what a bike with a good throttle is like, especially when metering out the kind of power the 1190 has in the midrange. Chase, you don’t need to worry about the traction control-when these bikes spin the rear on corner exit, they are super controllable because the torque falls off as the RPM rises. The original EBR bikes raced in AMA had no traction control while everyone else did and they were competitive right out of the box. You won’t die if the rear end spins up a little coming out of a corner, promise. ;)
I’m glad to see the Buell resurgence. I’m still bitter over how Harley did them dirty in the 2000s. A high price point on their production bikes but at least now they’re cranking out 185hp instead of 85
Chase these camera views are better suited for track use. It looks great. Excellent video. I hope you do more with this bike. I’ve been a follower since they were with HD
From some owners who have had the ebr 1190 for 10 years a worthwhile modification is fit a specific r6 throttle tube which reduces the rotation needed to get to wide open throttle
Now, imagine if it got this much positive press when Erik owned the company... It'd be way updated by now... "I don't know why it's so nimble" it was engineered by a fanatic...
Not many companies these days are designed, engineered, built and raced by the owner 😂. It's also amazing that a chassis designed in the early 2000s is still one of the best.
@maguslascivious4980 what else could you even do to make it faster anyhow? Bill already made it where a CF body is affordable and standard, that was Erik's real last step. Gosh I can't think of any performance improvements.

It was when they got completely and utterly screwed over by Hero. They entered into a partnership where they were going to be develop some concept bikes and do R&D for them - tl;dr, EBR worked on 13 different bikes, yet Hero never paid them the $20M that was agreed to. That's how the company went down more or less, sadly.
I'm glad they're making bikes again. I love that it's a V-twin with few electronics. I just don't like the styling and price, it looks too American, it's hard to describe what that look is exactly but to put it briefly; The overuse of intake/exhaust vents that don't quite flow into the body shape.

back to 2008 Las Vegas HD Summer Dealer Meeting Erik Buell had a what some would say. One last go at it. And when I say that man was sick. That dude was flashing green to pale white....Palms sweaty, knees weak, arms heavy . holding his hands up to his face and peeking through his fingers. Hiding around a corner in a hallway. Bathroom behind him and further down. The emergency exit. Center stage was a bike. Black sheet hiding it from the audience. Sheet pulls and the 1125R revealed. Some cheers, some applauses, some Huh?s, one guy speed dialing the local equipment rental place asking if a crane was available that evening to raise the bike a drop it from high above. And the rest looked like Chris Farley in Tommy Boy when David Spade opens the door and it falls off the hinges,,,!!?Whatdya dooo!!?...I wanted that bike badly and immediately. when I turned to the dealership owner. I got answered before saying anything in midturn. NO. You will break that too..Then I looked back at Erik and he was stuck in a one step forward and turn one away vice versa. Fight or flight. He chose to stay and fight. Glad he stuck around and shared his thought process. Good dude and his motorcycles are not for the easily distracted. Squirrel spotted midturn and that squirrel gonna have a Buell heading its way.
Would love to see a track review of the Daytona 660 against other bikes in its class you could do a series on it going from beginner bikes middle weight sports bikes to super sports and liter bikes
Love the Buells but you gotta talk about the shitty maintenance/parts part of this bike. Because of Buells weird chain setup, you have to have the chain bowstring tight. This causes the rear and front sprockets to wear down in less than 1k miles if you are actually wringing the bike out. Front sprocket cost $224 from Sweden and the rear cost another $120. You also have to stay in a lower gear constantly to keep the bike from lugging around, which exasperates the sprocket issue/wear. Best handling bike I’ve ever been on, but the cost/fun ratio is almost that of a Ducati.
OC: Definitely gotta have a series of track day bike reviews. Especially if you can get a few loaners in the same category for a all in one track day comparison. Like all middleweights or naked bikes.
Always liked Buells since seeing one an XB12R. Can’t wait to see the Super Cruiser review. That might make or break me getting off triumphs and back in to Harley’s let alone a Buell!
why do you have to get off of one for another. I have a Triumph Daytona and a Buell XB9R. They are two completely different machines that ride completely different and I love them both. And don't call a Buell a Harley because the XBs motor was developed for the bike it is in specifically and the year after the sportster received some of that tec. No V45 Harley ever revved to 7500 rpm. Worst thing Harley ever did was get rid of Buell and I lost all respect for them because of it. Will never buy anything from them. Indian would see me first
@@plap. yes, it's a terrific bike. But i'm more into the air cooled line they have tbh when it comes to indian(wouldn't mind a scout 101 though, tried one, very neat)
@@tontonsatan3093 Then you would love the XB. 80k miles on mine and still ride it more any of my others. Iv had it 21 years just beat the hell out of it done regular maintenance and it always works. Have a great cross reference list of parts. Most can still be had, believe it or not, from an auto parts store
lol i have the SX 1190 and a gsxr 1000, i have more fun on the SX, i always keep the tc at off, go through tires fast though. i do have the Dean Adams oval exhaust and tune but the bike with those mods at the weigh station was 400lbs with a full tank
SX must be lighter than the Hammerhead then because according to their website it weighs 419 without fuel. 4.5 gallons of fuel puts it at about 445 lbs. your not dropping 45 lbs with an exhaust.
I’ve got an 09 XR (BuellxHarley) made and I’ve been looking at the v2-v4 as a replacement. With a starting point of 20k how would this compare to the Ducati V2? Both v twins and different features
power delivery, the Buell's max HP/TRQ is sooner and broader. Handling, substantially more light footed on the Buell. Comfort, a Penigale is absolutely atrocious. And then the biggest one, maintenance/repair costs, the Buell is fairly simple and cheap; no more so than a KTM.
Don't even bother with the Buell, sorry. At this price point there is absolutely no reason why you wouldn't just get a Panigale or an RSV4. I'm sure the Buell is more "fun" but the price is just ridiculous, plus no one in your area will know how or want to work on them.
To bad your not in my neck of the woods! Road America is literally 10 minutes away and is a 4 mile track with big turns small turns and long straights! Check it out
Love the bike, but this isn't a "track review" as much as it is going for a cruise on a closed course...Also, at speed, flicking the highbeams as you cross the line isn't as easy as you might think. Many bikes including my v4r have that and yea, good luck remembering to flick that 😂
There's a trigger that does your split times. It's in a pretty good spot, but yea, you have to get used to hitting it, lol. The high beam flip is just to start the timer.
@@oneonlyxram Ah, nm then, I thought you thought that the brights had to be toggled each lap... lol. I'll be on my way... nothing to see here. VR4's are sick BTW.
My 28,000 mile 2013 Ducati 1199 with stock suspension and a slip-on has more power, weighs less than 400 lbs with a full tank, out handles, out brakes, out runs, out accelerates, and out 'Prima Donna's' this Buell. total investment is about $14,000. Take a hike Buell. I'll keep the Panigale.

Love the bike, but this isn't a "track review" as much as it is going for a cruise on a closed course...Also, at speed, flicking the highbeams as you cross the line isn't as easy as you might think. Many bikes including my v4r have that and yea, good luck remembering to flick that 😂
There's a trigger that does your split times. It's in a pretty good spot, but yea, you have to get used to hitting it, lol. The high beam flip is just to start the timer.
@@rayzorjay7331 yup I'm aware of its purpose. My v4r and many other bikes utilize the same thing.
@@oneonlyxram Ah, nm then, I thought you thought that the brights had to be toggled each lap... lol. I'll be on my way... nothing to see here. VR4's are sick BTW.
@@rayzorjay7331 haha no worries!
9:26 You only need to increase revs when downshifting...
More track reviews !!
Wow a 40-80 pull so intriguing 🤮🤬,
OC I enjoyed the track review
Are you doing a track day or are you riding to church. Show us what its got. Getting on it doing 60 mph🥴
How does it compare to a panigale v4 or s1000rr?
Slow
it doesn't, not at this price point.
Traction control is just to keep the squids alive!!
Says guy without traction control
Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.
U talking about twins like they all die off in the top end, ride a Ducati, even my 996 monster redlines around 11 and peak tq and HP are at almost 9 k
OC: the ppl want Liutenant Dan!
Track review: Does 50mph all through it.
Cmon.
Lmao I never seen him ride on a track before so I already knew it was gonna be like he’s on the street…
Exactly Slow Rider On Street Tires lol
Guy has a spare tire in his racing suit
Why are you riding so slow on the track?
Why tape the mirrors?
Track safety. If a bike goes down, it minimizes or completely prevents broken glass scattering across the track
Hmmm...401K loan for the R/W/B model !!! Hahaha
The white lightning is posted
There are more rules on track than there are on the roads.
Your holding the throttle incorrectly.
my guy looks perma stuck in novice.
It is triggering to see him riding this slow, I was curious about the bike but just can't watch this or take it seriously
Sounds like Buell is in his ear. YN said the exact opposite in his review.
YN also used to hate bmws till he actually rode one. He's kind of a tool...if it isn't a 3cyl or a yamaha, YN doesn't like it
My 28,000 mile 2013 Ducati 1199 with stock suspension and a slip-on has more power, weighs less than 400 lbs with a full tank, out handles, out brakes, out runs, out accelerates, and out 'Prima Donna's' this Buell. total investment is about $14,000. Take a hike Buell. I'll keep the Panigale.
Did you ride them back to back with the same modifications? Also how's your maintenance and repair bills?
You spent $14k on a bike with 28k miles 😂😂😂
k
Sick of POV only vids
At that moment she realized she had a sixth sense.
Quick shifter ? You need to be way faster to make real use of a quick shifter.
