As per the article; "The 1125 uses a Canadian Rotax BRP engine. While you won't find the line "Canadian-powered American sportbike" in any Buell literature..." Can anyone confirm that the 1125 Rotax engine is built in Canada vice Austria? I fully realize the company is Austrian/Canadian owned - I am curious though if the Buell's engine is actually manufactured right here in Canada. Thanks! |

I think it's made in Austria. |

Inside the oil filter cover, it says "Made in Austria" as do several other parts I've seen. Z |

Maybe all the various engine parts are made in Austria and its assembled in Canada. I dunno. Doesn't really matter, I was just curious... |
