Magpul Ronin: Buell 1125R of the future

Dissatisfied not only with the disappointing reality of the Buell 1125R, but also the company’s untimely death, Colorado-based Magpul has taken matters into its own hands and evolved the superbike into the visually stunning, pared-to-the-bone motorcycle they always knew it could be. The Magpul Ronin eliminates the 1125R’s bodywork and front end, replacing them with a girder set up and an integrated subframe, tailpiece and airbox cover. The changes aren’t just visual, but are designed to improve the steering and drop 50lbs from the wet weight too.
