VEHICLE REVIEW
2009 Buell 1125CR
A sporty all-rounder and stripped down racer
Naked styling and clubman-style handlebar give a respectful nod to the nostalgic era of café racers. A 146-hp liquid-cooled V-Twin engine is geared for acceleration. Sinister styling. Sophisticated technology. The 1125CR, Erik Buell’s 21st century interpretation of the classic café racer, is a new motorcycle that defies convention and expands the streetfigher category in the direction of superbike performance. Positioned behind the black-anodized, tapered aluminum clubman-style handlebar and streamlined headlight and flyscreen, the rider has a wide-open view forward that intensifies the sensation of speed. With a dry weight of 375 pounds, the 1125CR is the lightest liter-class streetfighter on the market, and combined with 146 horsepower, it offers the best weight-to-horsepower ratio in the category.
The Buell 1125CR offers liquid-cooled technology and responsive handling from a proven platform based on the Buell Trilogy of Tech principles. The Buell Helicon 1125 powertrain provides the foundation for this riding experience. This 1125cc DOHC V-Twin engine features a compact, 72-degree design and is rated at 146 crankshaft horsepower and 82 ft. lbs. of peak torque. Buell DDFI3 closed-loop EFI produces throttle operation with a quick, smooth response. New for 2009 on the 1125R and 1125CR models are targeted fuel injectors, relocated two sensors, and updated engine spark and fuel maps. The combination of these features offers improved drivability below 6000rpm, even crisper throttle response, improved heat management, and significantly improved fuel economy. The updated engine spark and fuel maps will also be made available for 2008 1125R models. A ram-air system pressurizes the 12-liter air box for a gain in peak performance. Twin side mounted radiators within aerodynamic cowlings lower the center of gravity (cg) and centralize mass. The exhaust system features an under slung muffler mounted below the engine to optimize cg location and mass centralization. An HVA (Hydraulic Vacuum Assist) Slipper Action clutch features hydraulic actuation from the hand control with assistance from engine vacuum for lighter clutch effort and reduced engine braking. Low 76/27 (2.815:1) final-drive gearing produces outstanding acceleration.
The engine is rigid-mounted as a structural component of the Buell Intuitive Response Chassis (IRC) that has outstanding torsional stiffness, yet is compliant in the planes required to help absorb mid-corner bumps, and doubles as a 5.3-gallon fuel reservoir. Showa 47 mm inverted forks and a Showa rear shock absorber are both fully adjustable. Positive braking performance is provided by the Buell ZTL2 front brake system. The rear brake caliper is mounted directly to the inner surface of the swing arm and weighs 1.5 pounds less than a typical rear-brake design. All this performance is packaged in a motorcycle that is visually stunning. A narrow headlight pod incorporates a clipped flyscreen, while a removable cowl covers the passenger seat section. The blacked-out frame and chassis components contrast with red highlights on the front brake caliper, wheel rims, rear shock spring and damping adjusters atop the fork tubes. The Buell 1125CR will be offered with Racing Red or Midnight Black bodywork.

STANDARD FEATURES (The New Buell 1125 CR )
Based on the 1125R platform, the most notable change to the 1125CR is the absence of a large front windscreen. The not so noticeable changes include a revised swing arm to accommodate the change in final gearing from the “R” model. There is also a new map for the ECU, which was introduced to make some rideability issues prevalent on its sportier brother under 6000rpm a thing of the past.
The Buell’s unusual styling, aggressive look and riding position are key elements to the bike’s appeal. The bike has air scoops on either side and a low slung exhaust; the finish highlights the fact that Buell’s level of fit and finish has been significantly improved upon and is now right up there aesthetically with the top bikes in its class. It has thick clubman-style handlebars, and your torso is pitched forward, close to the front wheel. An equally aggressive set of high-mounted foot pegs push your knees into the carved recess of the matte-black frame and pseudo fuel tank.
Buell also offers an upright handlebar accessory option if the angle of the handlebars is uncomfortable.
The new 1125CR has 171kg claimed as dry weight, which feels low and centred.
The 1125CR utilises Buell’s fuel in the frame system, while the traditionally-located fuel tank actually houses a ram-air equipped 12-litre pressurised airbox.
Once the bike’s V-Twin engine comes to life there is still a fair amount of engine vibration, but unlike other air-cooled Buell motorcycles, you don’t feel like it’s going to rattle itself apart.
The Buell handles different types of riding scenarios competently, with a lot of power coming out of corners. The CR variant has lower gearing than the R version, and this makes a big difference to the bike’s real world ability. The Buell CR forgives gear-selection errors on the rider’s part by pulling very well in the 2000-4000rpm range, so you rarely feel stuck in the wrong gear. There’s useful power everywhere in the range. A pulley keeps the final belt drive under tension as well, so throttle response and rapid gear changes are translated into instant urge seamlessly.
The 1125CR has an eight-piston calliper on the front brake, which offered outstanding stopping power and a good level of fine control.
The Buell’s acceleration is powerful and responsive, and it has a lap timer inside its electronic dashboard and adjustable footpegs and control levers.
The Buell has a detachable tail section for emergency pillion transport and a 20-litre fuel capacity for a decent range.
