The new Buell is powered by a water-cooled, 1125cc, 72º V-Twin built by Rotax. The engine is said to produce 146 horsepower at the crankshaft with 84 lbs.-ft. of torque and a redline of 10,500 rpm. The bike has a six-speed transmission and is equipped with a slipper clutch. The frame will continue to double as the fuel tank but with more capacity, 5.6 gallons. Wheelbase is 54.5 inches, longer than the 52-inch wheelbase of existing Buell Firebolts, and the bike has an upgraded version of the Zero Torsional Load single-disc brake system. Buell will officially release information and photos of the new machine Sunday.   Nell Posted on Saturday, August 18, 2007 - 01:25 pm:        We finally have a liter bike; i can't wait for the demo ride!
