2008 Buell Ulysses XB12XT

Buell's liquid-cooled 1125R sportbike is also a departure from the company's air-cooled, Harley-powered roots, however the 2008 Buell Ulysses XB12XT journey sport tourer capitalizes on the success of the XB12X by shifting the focus of the dirt-ready platform to long distance sport-touring.

Starting at $12,995, the Buell XB12XT includes 3 saddlebags, a lower seat height, and normal heated grips with built-in wind deflectors, together with sport-tuned suspension and different revisions to the XB12X platform. Included may be a 24-month, unlimited mileage warranty.

The XB12XT perpetuates Buell's practice of building quirky bikes with unique engineering. Buell's so-called "Trilogy of Tech" incorporates mass centralization, frame rigidity, and reduced unsprung weight so as to boost performance, and therefore the XB12XT's adheres to that philosophy. for example, 4.4 gallons of fuel are stored within the frame, lending it a curiously tall shape. An underslung exhaust sits directly beneath the engine so as to keep weight centralized, and oil is also stored in the swingarm for the same purpose.

The XB12XT's forged aluminum wheels are every a pound lighter than the XB12X, since they are not bolstered for off-road riding. Zero Torsional Load brakes up front feature a 375mm rotor mounted to the surface of the wheel so as to transfer braking forces to the rim, not the spokes. A 6-piston caliper provides front stopping power, and a single-piston unit activates the rear brake.

Buell 1125R RMR Daytona SportBike

For an avid motorcyclist, one of the biggest question marks around Daytona AMA Pro Road Racing Sportbike class is what it feels like to ride one of these "sport bikes" in the race full adjustment of the factory. Recently, the motorcycle, USA given that opportunity, testing the Geico Powersports Richie Morris Racing Buell 1125R racebike around Road America road course of 4 miles in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin.

In our comparison of Daytona Sportbike street bike was found that, in fact, a 2009 production Buell 1125R has a performance advantage compared to its class rivals - including the 2009 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R and Aprilia RSV1000R. But how does it compare with the bike of values that is based out of? To our surprise, not so different.

In order to create better parity in the class, the rules of the DSB would not allow a lot of engine Modifications. Instead the set of rules gives more scope for changes to the chassis. So many of the changes the team focus on that area.

Most obvious is the goal naked in the aluminum frame and swingarm for enhanced racebike, which also allows a conventional chain / sprocket end rather than the stock belt. It is also surprising how different the bike race is plastics. The lower fairing and tail section of the 1125R racebike closer look at a European or Japanese sport bike, until the eye picks up these two huge balls of air on both sides and their upper fairing large, that remind all Buell.

The Code also makes use of dual exhaust right side, with the previous Buell, of course, known for their particular systems of low-lying escape.
