180 hp Harley powered American sportbike?
Fuck yeah. The Roehr 1250sc, completely American made, supercharged Harley revolution engine.
Cant find many pictures at all, looks like a lot of design cues borrowed from Mv Augusta http://g.photos.cx/roehr1250sc-c5.jpg http://g.photos.cx/roehr1250sc2-d5.jpg http://g.photos.cx/roehr1250sc3-57.jpg http://g.photos.cx/roehr1250sc4-b9.jpg previous version test mule http://g.photos.cx/roehr-superbike-1-32.jpg Quote:
And this "making the Roehr 1250sc the fastest and most powerful sport bike built in America." makes me laugh...let's see faster than buell...fischer...and....?? Not really saying much. It really is pitiful how tiny American contribution to the sportbike field is. We basically just modify Italian or Japanese designs and call them our own. Hope this starts a new trend. |
I sticking with the Harley tradition of charging $1000/HP on there bikes that thing should be about $180,000.... No thanks...
|
looks like a bobo ducati
|
Great looking bike...with what appear to be solid numbers...but yes, it's extremely expensive. Like 40 large or some shit. Fuck that.
|
Ohlins, Marchesini, Brembo, all stock...well, that should be an affordable bike.
|
Lets see, GSXR1000 - 07 holdover $9800
Ohlins shock and fork internals - $3800 Titanium full system - $1125 Power commander/cust dyno tune $ 450 Suzuki/Yosh Race ECU - $950 Marchesini Rims - $2200 Track side Pilot Race Tires - $ 350 Proud to be an American Flag Stickers$ 7 Total $18,682.00 Leaves $21,318 for track day fees, travel expenses, drinks, and lap dances.....:zowned: |
"Deposits to reserve your V-Roehr 1250SC are now being accepted. This $4500.00, fully refundable deposit, will reserve your limited production V-Roehr Superbike on a first come/first serve basis. "
Yeah, gonna be expensive. |
a completely american made bike, constructed from everyone else's parts :lmao: even the engine was developed with outside help! seriously, fischer has a better plan. more 600ss roll around than anything else. as a new unknown company why would you even TRY to compete in the 1000+ class? this is a recipe for fail
at least motoczysz has their own engine :rolleyes: |

The only thing you can't recreate from the roehr is the priceless amount of smugness and superiority...oh wait you have drinks and lap dances you still win. |
I'd like to see what this thing can do in real life. That 60-degree watercooled V-twin is a heavy unit (200-lbs +) and now add a supercharger on top of that? I'd like to see what the actual bike would weigh in at. Not to mention that they'd have to do some serious modding to the engine because that Revolution engine is a very slow revver. Powerful, yes, but revs slow as hell. When we do roll-ons on the freeway, my KTM is up and gone and my homey's Street Rod could never catch up even though it puts out 20 more horses. You rev the throttle on that Revolution engine and you'll wait for a couple of seconds before anything kicks in. So, I'd like to see what Roeher did to solve that problem.
