A little bit of Multistrada
2012 S1000RR
This may come as surprise and maybe a dissapointment for those who just bought the S1000RR, almost two years after its launch the BMW S1000RR gets a revision.
The main objective of the revision was to enhance the riding precision and agility of the bike by giving it a punchier power buildup, and a much more sensitive response…these enhancements were based on feedback BMW got from super stock racers.
The bike got a lot of other enhancements but if it’s any consolation, no changes to the power and its still producing 193 hp but with a bit more precision. Read more
The Superquadro
Meet Superquadro, the most powerful twin-cylinder production engine on the planet !
Ducati has yet again set a new absolute production twin-cylinder milestone of 195hp @ 10,750rpm and 98.1 lb-ft (13.5kgm) @ 9,000rpm, the power delivery is customizable with several Riding Modes that deliver the power appropriate to your riding style .
The engine might have the same looks of the 1098 and the Desmo driven valves, but it houses a completely different technology…so S1000RR here comes البنغالي .
I’ll leave you with Ducati technical words on the Superquadro :
Nice Ad !
But aren’t these almost the same features of the 2011 model?
The 1199 Panigale
I don’t think we’ll be seeing any more of the Panigale before EICMA, the name Panigale came from Borgo Panigale the home town of Ducati and i hope local nick name for the bike won’t be “ البنغالي ”
10-10-2011
In the soft launch date of the new Kawasaki ZX-14, and looking at the a couple of leaked photos the bike has killer looks…and almost a ZX-10 clone.
The full launch will be at EICMA on November 8th, but will it be a Hayabusa killer, and what about Suzuki do they have anything under their sleeves are they gona surprise us at EICMA ?
It’s an Anniversary
50 years, thats how long Yamaha has been in business and to memorate the event Yamaha is intruducing a special, limited-production World Grand Prix Racing 50th Anniversary Edition in the same color scheme that Jorge Lorenzo and Ben Spies used at Assen, Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca and Indianapolis Motor Speedway.The Anniversary machines will have numbered plaques and 50th Anniversary emblems on the fuel tanks, gold-colored tuning forks in the Yamaha emblems.
