Here is the 2014 Erik Buell Racing 1190RX

Debuting today at the AIMExpo in Orlando, the 2014 Erik Buell Racing 1190RX superbike is already the talk of the event. Based off the company’s uber-pricey EBR 1190RS racing machine, the EBR 1190RX is the RS’s more affordable, yet still potent, street bike sibling.

Featuring 185 peak horsepower in a 419 lbs bulk (sans fuel), Erik Buell Racing is posting some impressive numbers with the EBR 1190RX, though we think the $18,995 is the figure that will really get people excited. Putting the Erik Buell Racing 1190RX in “Ducati territory” for potential buyers, EBR is now a serious street bike company for enthusiasts to consider.

Diving into the details, the 2014 Erik Buell Racing 1190RX comes with a 21-setting traction control system (more settings is better, right?), and also features a color digital dash. With a top torque figure of 101.6 lbs•ft at 8,200 rpm, the EBR 1190RX on paper sounds like a peaky beast, though its dyno graph tells a different story.

The headlight is a full LED unit, and flanks the redesigned air intake, while the Suspension is Show Big Piston forks up front, and a full adjustable Showa shock for the rear. Unsurprisingly, Buell’s ZTL single-disc braking design is implemented on the EBR 1190RX, which should be fine as long as you keep the bike off the race track.

America, you have wanted a real American sport bike for some time now. Here is your chance.
