You didn’t expect Buell to build the amazing 1125cc liquid cooled V-twin found in the 1125R without eventually debuting the same power unit in other models, did you? The new 1125CR is essentially a naked version of the 1125R, with many of the same features. At a claimed 375 pounds dry weight, the 1125CR will be one of the lightest, big bore nakeds on the market.
The big V-twin puts out a claimed 146 horsepower at 9,800 rpm and 82 foot/pounds of torque, also at 9,800 rpm. U.S. MSRP will be $11,695.
We certainly enjoyed the 1125R when we tested it at the press introduction here. We expect the CR version to be just as enjoyable to ride.
