2023 Buell SuperTouring 1190

Browsing

The new Buell SuperTouring 1190 motorcycle debuted this past weekend at the Daytona Bike Week, but you would never know it from the American brand. Save for one video on Instagram, the machine is virtually non-existent from Buell’s marketing channels.

The lack of a coordinated product launch live at an event and also virtually online can perhaps be forgiven from a small company with limited resources, but that same forgiveness shouldn’t apply to the motorcycle itself.

“A lack of resources” is perhaps the best way to describe the new Buell SuperTouring 1190, as the bike shown in Daytona is generously a bit rough around the edges, and not what you would expect from a serious player in the motorcycle industry.

If you are in Daytona, Florida this weekend, then in addition to the usual Bike Week festivities and Daytona 200 race, you will have the chance to be one of the first to see the first new Buell motorcycle in quite a while.

This is because Buell Motorcycles is getting ready to unveil its Buell SuperTouring 1190 sport-tourer.

Based on the 185hp / 101 lbs•ft 1190cc v-twin engine found in the Buell Hammerhead 1190 superbike, the American brand is touting the SuperTouring as the fastest production touring bike on the market.
