Author Message   Garyt Posted on Friday, July 04, 2014 - 09:25 am:        I "neeeed" one ! ... http://www.cycleworld.com/2014/07/02/2015-erik-bue ll-racing-ebr-1190sx-naked-motorcycle-update-prici ng-specs-photos/?src=SOC&dom=fb   Hughlysses Posted on Friday, July 04, 2014 - 09:29 am:        Interesting- EBR calls it the "2014 1190SX" on their website. Which is it: a 2014 or 2015 model? BTW- here's the official press release from their website: http://erikbuellracing.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/EBRIntroduces1190SX.pdf (Message edited by Hughlysses on July 04, 2014)   Court Posted on Sunday, July 06, 2014 - 08:34 am:        People should reread that closely. Interesting.   Hughlysses Posted on Sunday, July 06, 2014 - 08:53 am:        Thanks, Court. I did re-read it, and a search based on that led to this very interesting document: http://c.ymcdn.com/sites/www.weda.org/resource/res mgr/gov_pp/ebr_marketing_us_expertise_t.pdf   Jstav2012 Posted on Sunday, July 06, 2014 - 11:09 am:        Wow, great find! Very compelling analysis from EBR.   Electraglider_1997 Posted on Sunday, July 06, 2014 - 01:53 pm:        That is good reading and information.   Hughlysses Posted on Sunday, July 06, 2014 - 02:01 pm:        I really like the way Erik thinks.   Tootal Posted on Sunday, July 06, 2014 - 02:49 pm:        Last page, last sentence: Never give up! Well we all know that's true!! Thanks Hugh, good stuff!   Ratbuell Posted on Monday, July 07, 2014 - 12:51 pm:        I need to print that last page and stick it on my sales managers office wall.... GREAT STUFF!!!   Ourdee Posted on Monday, July 07, 2014 - 02:36 pm:        I saw my bike. Diesel lil ULY. HERO turbo diesel 2wd   Buewulf Posted on Monday, July 07, 2014 - 02:40 pm:        I do like the look of this bike. EBR did a great job with this. Can't wait to see how it stacks up with its competition.   Hughlysses Posted on Monday, July 07, 2014 - 03:58 pm:        ^ AND the diesel scooter can double as a portable/emergency generator. How cool would that be? (Message edited by Hughlysses on July 07, 2014)   Buewulf Posted on Monday, July 07, 2014 - 05:36 pm:        That scooter also has plow and harvester attachments available, too. Maximum utility - makes this otherwise ugly ducking beautiful.   Ourdee Posted on Monday, July 07, 2014 - 08:11 pm:        Needs a V plow and chains for winter riding.   Malott442 Posted on Tuesday, July 08, 2014 - 04:12 am:        Offering engineering services will reciprocate certain kickbacks? Single and triple cylinder engines? A parallel twin? All exciting thoughts! I wish WI were warmer, and that I had my degree.... A man can dream   Natexlh1000 Posted on Tuesday, July 08, 2014 - 08:32 am:        I love that scooter backup generator thing. I would think it would be great to use every day to commute too. Imagine how much camping gear that little thing could carry and then think you could be camped out with electricity too!   Hooper Posted on Wednesday, July 09, 2014 - 12:19 pm:        "Make every ride thrilling!"   Ramman4x4 Posted on Thursday, July 10, 2014 - 03:13 pm:        Definitely a beautiful bike! The more I look at it the more I see the resemblance to the XB models...frame, swingarm, perimeter front brake, forks, etc.. Can't wait to see what the AX model looks like!   Ourdee Posted on Friday, July 11, 2014 - 08:07 pm:        Imagine how much camping gear that little thing could carry and then think you could be camped out with electricity too! Thinking........   Electraglider_1997 Posted on Sunday, July 13, 2014 - 07:11 pm:        Anybody find a spec sheet on that diesel bike? Is it a full sized bike or small? Wheel size?   Hughlysses Posted on Sunday, July 13, 2014 - 08:33 pm:        Craig- you can find more photos and limited specifications, but nothing like full specs.   Hughlysses Posted on Sunday, July 13, 2014 - 08:37 pm:        Judging from this photo, it's a full-sized bike:   Hughlysses Posted on Sunday, July 13, 2014 - 08:40 pm:        This article has a few more details: http://rideapart.com/2014/02/hero-rnt/   Electraglider_1997 Posted on Monday, July 14, 2014 - 09:28 am:        Hugh, Thanks for the article. I saw others but it was hard to get an idea how large the bike is except for that photo above. The turbo charger would probably be necessary because 150cc seems kind of anemic. Maybe for the U.S. market it could be up-sized to at least a turbo 500cc diesel.   Ourdee Posted on Friday, July 18, 2014 - 07:29 pm:        First, His shoe is untied. Second, How tall is he, or what size is that tire? Third, I thought it was supposed to be 2WD? 150cc diesel may or may not let you cruise 75mph. It would be great for 2 lane travel though. My TW only has 200 cc gasoline. Could make a better guess if you knew the wattage rating on the generator. I want a kick or pull starter on it for emergencies.   7873jake Posted on Friday, July 18, 2014 - 11:36 pm:        I put the OEM mirrors from my Uly up for sale on eBay when I got the Tuono mirrors. I see where they went now...on to the Hero diesel pizza delivery bike. Wait, if I'm in Panama, its a Subway delivery bike, in Mexico City and/or Bogota its a KFC delivery bike. In Abu Dhabi, Its either Subway or Pizza Hut and in Dubai its Haagen Dazs. In Mumbai, it would make a heckuva monoposto for dabbawallahs delivering tiffins.   Pontlee77 Posted on Saturday, July 19, 2014 - 06:06 am:        There are a few diésel bikes on the market, i think the first was a Royal Enfield Taurus, i remember that there was also a Kawasaki for the army that was diésel powered, a dutch bike also 800cc turbo charged and some others i cant remember
