Overview
Introducing the 2010 Erik Buell Racing 1190RR, a masterpiece of American engineering designed for the serious sportbike enthusiast. With a price tag of $44,900, this motorcycle is not just a mode of transport; it’s a statement on two wheels. Born from a legacy of racing heritage, the 1190RR positions itself as a track-focused machine, leaving the notion of street legality in the dust. EBR, or Erik Buell Racing, has crafted this bike with one goal in mind: delivering an adrenaline-pumping experience that’s backed by cutting-edge technology and uncompromising performance. At the heart of the 1190RR lies a potent 1190cc V2, four-stroke engine that unleashes a staggering 185 horsepower at 11,500 RPM, paired with a torque output of 126.11 Nm at 9,500 RPM. This powertrain is engineered for exhilarating acceleration, making it a formidable contender on the track. The 6-speed gearbox, combined with a multiplate slipper clutch, ensures smooth and precise shifts, allowing riders to tackle corners with confidence and agility. With a compression ratio of 14.3:1, every twist of the throttle is met with immediate response, providing an exhilarating ride that keeps enthusiasts coming back for more. The 2010 1190RR comes loaded with features that reflect its racing pedigree. The lightweight alloy frame not only integrates the fuel cell but also contributes to a nimble feel, tipping the scales at just 360 pounds. The semi-floating ISO multi-fin rotor paired with an 8-piston ZTL2 caliper delivers exceptional braking performance, ensuring riders can stop as impressively as they can accelerate. The Showa Race suspension system, featuring a fully adjustable 43mm inverted fork at the front and a rear damper that adjusts for compression, rebound, and ride height, allows riders to fine-tune their setup to suit various track conditions. The adjustable rake and wheelbase further enhance the bike's handling characteristics, making it adaptable to the preferences of each rider. **
