Author Message   Tack691 Posted on Monday, October 03, 2016 - 06:22 pm:        Would like any and all info on the 2009 1125rr stamped "Race Use Only" such as production numbers and anything else you might know?   Squish Posted on Friday, October 07, 2016 - 10:40 pm:        Numbers. There were 3 made....?....does that help? From the front page of the 1125R Superbike Board: Production numbers: 1125R - 5836 1125CR - 3099 1125RR - 3   Xb9er Posted on Saturday, October 08, 2016 - 08:32 am:        Buell made 3 complete bikes; however, my old race bike was a factory for race use only frame. So I'm not sure how many race use only frames are out there.   Hybridmomentspass Posted on Saturday, October 08, 2016 - 10:12 am:        Only 3? Is that what Eslick and the others rode, the RR?   1313 Posted on Saturday, October 08, 2016 - 01:05 pm:        Is that what Eslick and the others rode, the RR? Not really, but Eslick's and Barney's rides could likely be considered the prototypes for the 1125RR. Some info: From Moto USA From AMA Pro Racing via Moto USA From Cycle World From Motorcyclist From RRW In addition to Cory West, Taylor Knapp also raced an 1125RR at NJMP the weekend that Eslick took the DSB championship. From the pictures I took while I was there, I really only captured Knapp's #44, with not much of West's #53. However, in the garage area of the pits, I can make out the making of 3 distinct bikes (#44 in the foreground, 2 bikes without bodywork - at the time - in the background). Since the release of the Buell 1125RR was so close to Wandell's ax swinging, and the forming of Erik Buell Racing, I think it will be difficult to find anyone who knows much more about them. But I welcome to be proven wrong! 1313   Smoke Posted on Tuesday, October 11, 2016 - 06:48 am:        i have Geoff May's AMA Superbike 1125R that Walt Sipp later rode to a CCS Team Challenge GTO championship although it now has a DSB spec motor in it. Walt rode it at Barber Vintage Festival last weekend. much racier than my 1125R race bike and still my favorite of all time! I have not ridden the RX on track yet though!! tim   99buellx1 Posted on Tuesday, October 11, 2016 - 01:13 pm:        Smoke has all the fun toys!   Anonymous Posted on Tuesday, October 11, 2016 - 07:27 pm:        Tim has the only complete 1125RR The rest are well, history   Torquehd Posted on Friday, October 14, 2016 - 12:17 am:        ?????   Mustang0 Posted on Wednesday, October 19, 2016 - 11:41 am:        Very interesting. Smoke could you elaborate on what a DSB spec motor is please.   Bullettooth023 Posted on Tuesday, November 08, 2016 - 07:34 pm:        From what I have been told and with research I've done through EBR I have one of the James Gang bikes. Not really sure where in the timeline it falls with relation to the RR.   Coolice Posted on Tuesday, November 08, 2016 - 08:30 pm:        Bullettooth023 I built all the James Gang bikes, still have one. I maintained "twins" for the 2009 season. It is not an 1125RR The 1125RR had the forward facing radiators All of the 1125R built for AMA had side mounted radiators and used Flexiglas bodywork for most.
