- May 1, 2025
The Buell 1190SX returns in 2025 as a bold, no-compromise streetfighter, combining raw power, lightweight engineering, and aggressive styling. Powered by a 1190cc ET-V2 72° V-Twin engine, it delivers a staggering 185 horsepower and 102 ft-lbs of torque, giving riders thrilling acceleration and performance. Its aluminum frame cleverly integrates the fuel tank, lowering the center of gravity and improving handling, while the full carbon fiber bodywork reduces weight and adds a sharp, muscular look.
Designed with the rider in mind, the 1190SX features high handlebars, lower footpegs, and handmade seats for a comfortable yet commanding riding position. Its Showa suspension system and advanced braking setup—including a massive 386mm single perimeter front rotor with an 8-piston caliper—ensure precision control and strong stopping power. Every detail of the bike supports dynamic riding, from the lightweight 17-inch wheels to its intuitive layout.
With prices starting at $19,995, the Buell 1190SX offers a customizable and premium riding experience. It’s more than just a motorcycle—it’s a modern expression of American performance and engineering, built for riders who demand power, agility, and bold character from their machine.
