The Magpul Ronin
is an experimental motorcycle project based on the Buell 1125R sport bike. The
project itself represents the first iteration of a design exercise inspired by
interests, hobbies, and passions shared by many within Magpul. Taken from the
Japanese word for a samurai who lost his master, the name "Ronin"
was chosen after the Buell Motorcycle Company ceased production and closed its
doors in 2009. The model 1125R was selected due its high level of performance
and aesthetic potential that were never fully realized by Buell as a subsidiary
of Harley Davidson.
Due to the experimental nature of the project,
it is not yet known if Ronin
motorcycles or Magpul-designed components for the Buell 1125R will be made
available for purchase. More information about Project
Ronin will be released as the design
progresses,
