The "new nose" is on the 1125R, the same flyscreen is still on the "S"

Toona,
No the new nose is not the same as that on the 1125.. The 1125 is not a Harley Engine at all...

It looks similar to the XBRR oil pump and cam setup. The oil pump is driven off of the end of two of the cams.
perhaps thats what it is, got that from another thread...?

Thunderstorm V-Twin Updates
Buell advances the performance of its air/oil/fan-cooled Thunderstorm V-Twin engine series with a larger crank pin, an improved oiling system, and a new electronic timing system and ECM that controls an all new DDFI 3 fuel injection system. Combined, these changes improve drivability and performance, and reduce service maintenance costs. The Thunderstorm V-Twin engine powers all models in the Buell XB platform.

I`m talking about the New Xb12 here Not that 1125r just to clear that up....

I Wd. expect the XBRR cyls. wd. fit right on these cases, maybe without any case boring???
One can wish...Plus that new ECM Hmmmm Interesting...
Reminds me when Buell came out with the Xb9 and then drop the xb12 out a few months later..
HeY what do you guys think.... Anyone else see this???
