2010 Suzuki Hayabusa GSX1300R

2010-08-01T19:50:00.000-07:00

Own the racetrack.

Ever since we introduced the Suzuki Hayabusa, it's had only one competitor: Itself. That's why the 2010 Hayabusa is so impressive - compared to the original, it's hotter than ever.

For enthusiasts, that comparison will make your heart pound. The Hayabusa's engine is thoroughly updated from the previous model for more power and an improved power-to-weight ratio, which you'll experience as an even greater rush of acceleration.

Its refined chassis and suspension help provide crisper handling. And its striking fairing offers sleeker aerodynamics. The original Hayabusa was the best. With the 2010 Hayabusa, you're looking at better than the best.

2010 Aprilia RSV4 Factory

2010-07-30T17:48:00.000-07:00

A revolutionary project and a unique history of victories on the racetrack have come together to create the RSV4. A super sport with absolutely exclusive racing technology, developed around the 4 narrow V cylinder engine developed from the technical know-how that has led Aprilia to victory on racetracks all over the world.

33 championships, 254 Moto GP World Championship wins and 8 Super bike victories : over the last two decades Aprilia has become a modern motorcycling legend. The bikes from Noale have dominated tracks the world over thanks to the genial design, courage and extraordinary abilities of the technicians who pursued innovative solutions by experimenting, innovating and sometimes revolutionizing technical schemes that seemed to be unchangeable. Aprilia RSV4 FACTORY, the bike that brings Aprilia back into the 2009 Super bike World Championship, is the product of this immense technical know-how. It is a highly technologically advanced motorcycle, conceived for racing and for this purpose designed and developed by Aprilia together with the marque's Race Division, the largest and most advanced of its kind in Europe and one of the most important in the world.

Aprilia RSV4 FACTORY is a racing machine that, in line with the Aprilia tradition, follows a completely innovative approach in its design and construction. Its narrow V engine, the use of state-of-the-art electronics, plus its lightness and extreme compactness are only a few of the features that make it unique in the world. Aprilia RSV4 FACTORY is designed and built with the same philosophy adopted by the Aprilia race division. This is why RSV4 FACTORY is the most "complete" Super bike racing replica, ready for those who want to venture onto the track with a class leading motorcycle.

The engine of the RSV4 FACTORY is the most innovative and powerful Aprilia has ever built. It is a super compact 999.6 cc 65° V-four cylinder engine designed for maximum power (180 CV), where power plant engineering comes together with the finest materials and the most advanced electronic control solutions. Aprilia's engine, in fact, uses a Ride by Wire multimap technology, a solution that opens up new frontiers for engine management, with practically infinite possibilities for further development.
Besides the triple map Ride by Wire system, a sophisticated electronic injection system with two injectors and adjustable height ducts are fitted.

Aprilia RSV4 FACTORY is an absolute super sport motorcycle, the most complete bike available on the market for bike fans, and its chassis confirms this: designed for the racetrack, it has adjustment features that are typical of racing motorcycles. The adjustable geometry chassis allows parameters such as the position and inclination of the headstock, the height of the swingarm pin and even that of the engine to be changed. The construction technology is also motorsports-derived: the RSV4 FACTORY chassis and swingarm are made of aluminium with variable section castings and pressings.
The components are the state-of-the-art in motorcycling technology: Öhlins Racing fork, rear monoshock and steering damper, Brembo monobloc callipers, forged aluminium rims.

Honda VT1300 (2010)

2010-07-22T20:35:00.000-07:00

The engine is the same fuel-injected, 1312cc, SOHC, 52-degree V-twin with two spark plugs and three valves per cylinder: two in take, one exhaust. Liquid-cooled, it hides its radiator between the aforementioned down tubes, the upper coolant hose concealed beneath the forward valve cover. Spent gases exit via a double-barrel shotgun exhaust, while motive power makes its way to the rear tire via a five-speed gearbox and shaft drive.

The differences are in the details. The Sabre is essentially a Fury with a drag bar and a 170mm-wide rear tire instead of a 200. The Stateline substitutes a 17-inch front wheel for the Fury's 21-inch pizza-cutter. And the Interstate adds a windshield, saddlebags and floorboards. Honda's Combined Braking System with ABS is a $1000 option on the first two but strangely not on the third; apparently the marketing department was adamant about keeping the price below $13,000.

The U.S. press was invited to sample the VT1300 line in Temecula Valley Wine Country northeast of San Diego, just as the wildflowers were blooming in April. Because the Interstate is the most significantly different model, I'll focus on it here.

Husqvarna TE630 (2010)

2010-07-22T20:30:00.000-07:00

Following BMW's purchase of Husqvarna in 2007, the brand has been trying to attract road riders as well as the hard-core off-road contingent. One of the first fruits of the takeover is the TE630-a street-legal dual-sport single based on Husky's old 610.

The TE gets a new DOHC 600cc engine in place of the 576cc SOHC lump, complete with an upgraded cooling system, hydraulic clutch and a third crankshaft main bearing for increased durability. A new high-level, twin-silencer exhaust system helps deliver an alleged 57 bhp at 7800 rpm-20 percent up from its predecessor.

The rest of the package aims to be more rider-friendly. The seat is better padded and an inch lower thanks to revised suspension. The steel-tube frame gets an extra degree of rake to improve stability at speed. Styling is fresh, the headlight brighter and detailing neater thanks to molded/painted graphics. There are even passenger grab handles.

Even so, the TE630 still feels lean and racy sitting more than 3 feet high-tall enough to put most riders on tiptoes at a standstill. The big single fires eagerly, sounding like an irate cement mixer. Despite its height, the TE is manageable at slow speed, mainly because of its sub-350 pound heft. That's light for a 600cc single, if not for a Husky.

Performance is predictably lively. The engine pulls cleanly through the midrange, though low-rev throttle response is a bit snatch. Typical single-cylinder vibration comes juddering through the seat at higher revs and above 70 mph

All that was forgiven when our off-road route turned steep and bumpy. Despite a reduction in suspension travel, the TE floats over rocks and drainage ditches that would make less dirt-worthy bikes very unhappy. Metzeler's Karoo tires did a good job of coping with everything from dry tarmac to wet leaves, though they feel predictably vague on-road and can't match real knobbiest on dirt.

Back on the asphalt for one last blast to the lunch stop, the more rider-friendly TE is a compromised, uncomfortable roadster. The big single's vibration quickly becomes annoying, and despite the softer seat this Husky still bites your bum after a few hours. The 3-gallon tank should be good for more than 100 miles, but its rider would be looking for an excuse to stand up on the pegs long before then.

So? The TE isn't the most road-ready dual-purpose mount, but it is one of the most capable when the going gets really rough. Fans of the legendary Husqvarna marque needn't worry. Whether its ownership is Swedish, Italian or German, the brand stands for off-road excellence. The TE630 has gained some civilizing touches but it's still lean, focused and every bit a Husky.

Harley Davidson Sports Forty Eight Right Side

2010-07-22T20:26:00.000-07:00

It's that tiny teardrop tank that gives the Forty-Eight its name. The "peanut" was originally introduced on Harley-Davidson's 1948 125 S-better known as the Hummer-and became an icon on the XLCH Sports, the hot-rod roadster that ruled the '50s and '60s.

It's surprising that history-conscious Harley waited until now to create a modern replica. Perhaps that's because fitting the peanut tank meant cutting capacity from the standard Sports less-than-generous 3.3 gallons to just 2.1, which many riders would find totally in-adequate. Whatever. This bike isn't supposed to appeal to Joe Sensible. It's a stylish, serious throwback to a bygone time, but with a modern flair.

The Forty-Eight's other features are more practical. Most obvious is that fat-tired, 16-inch wire-spoke front wheel that replaces the typical narrow 19-incher to change the look without significantly altering steering geometry. Above it sits a cut-down fender, plus a fork brace with alleged weight-saving holes to match those in the fuel tank's mounting bracket.

Shorter shocks lower the rear end and exaggerate the Sports look, reducing the solo saddle's height to a knuckle-dragging 26.8 inches. Foot controls are forward-set, as on the Sports Custom. The speed is also set lower than on previous models. The slightly raised black bars are from the Nights.

The Forty-Eight feels very skinny as I throw a leg over its ultra-low saddle. At a claimed 567 pounds full of gas, it's hardly light, but all that weight rides so low and the bike is so slim that it's very manageable.

The bike doesn't roar like an old XR1000, but those shotgun pipes are rowdy enough to let the big twin's exhalations be heard down the block. The air-cooled V-twin kicks out maximum torque at just 4000 rpm, and pulls away from the line smartly. Fuel injection provides crisp response, and the five-speed gearbox is easy to navigate.

As a city bike the Forty-Eight is great. It's fine for a short burst on the highway as well, where rumbling up to an indicated 90 mph happens quickly enough. Its rubber-mounted engine is smooth enough to make 70-mph cruising fairly painless. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the mirrors, mounted below the bars, stayed clear and useful at that speed.

The Forty-Eight steers with a pleasantly neutral feel. It's easy enough to flick around with a tweak on its bars, but those forward-set pegs scrape early-long before the fat, Harley-branded Dunlops run out of grip. Braking is reasonably strong, with the single front disc and twin-piston caliper backed up by a similar-sized rotor and single-pot caliper at the rear.

I love the Forty-Eight more for its looks than for its functional capabilities. For those who can accept its concessions to style, few production bikes hit the spot like this one.

Highland Viking (2011)

2010-07-22T20:22:00.000-07:00

Mats Malmberg, who founded Highland Motorcycles in Sweden 15 years ago, wasn't necessarily looking to re-enter the bike-building business. Discouraged by seemingly endless frustrations producing the original Highland 950 Outback a decade ago, he back-burnered his bike-building dreams and transformed his company into a successful engineering firm that developed technology for Husqvarna and others. And he certainly wasn't looking to relocate to Oklahoma-a state most Swedes aren't even aware exists-until Tulsa-based entrepreneur Chase Bales made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

The two met when Bales was negotiating a deal for Highland to supply engines to American dirtbike manufacturer ATK. That venture didn't pan out, but Bales-who actually owned an original Highland Outback-had another idea. He made Malmberg an outrageous offer to re-launch Highland as a full-line manufacturer of high-end, American-made road and off-road motorcycles.

Before you could say smorgasbord, Bales bought 25 percent of Highland and Malmberg became the newest resident of The Sooner State. "To develop technologies for others is satisfying," Malmberg admits, "but it's much more fun to do it for yourself, under your own brand, and sell bikes under your own name." That was 2008. Today, barely 16 months later, a heavy-hitting board of directors-led by Bengt Andersson, former chairman of Husqvarna-is in place, a brand-new manufacturing facility has been built on the outskirts of Tulsa, more than 30 employees have been hired, and U.S. Highland is set to deliver its first production motorcycles to customers by the end of the year.

Motorcyclist dropped in on the new firm the same week it was moving into its new factory, which was alive with activity as employees set up CNC mills and other tooling. Scattered around the shop floor were R&D projects ranging from outboard marine motors to side-by-side ATVs, along with every possible variation of motorcycle: dirt-spattered motocross, super motor, street-trackers, even a single-cylinder road racer. Modular construction using two basic engine layouts (single or V-twin, in displacements ranging from 450cc to 1050cc) and a few basic frame designs will allow the firm to offer a dizzying array of products, easily customizable to each individual buyer's specification. The company plans to offer 15 models ranging from race-ready motocross and enduro machines to street-legal street fighters, and will add more according to customer demand.

Highland follows a decidedly top-down design strategy. "We're going to build what we love to ride, and hope we find a market for it," Bales explains. Judging from the two street-legal prototypes we sampled-the Viking street fighter and Desert X enduro-what Highland honchos love to ride is high-powered, hard-edged motorcycles that are barely a half-step removed from hardcore race machines.

Both bikes are powered by the same extremely compact, 60-degree V-twin, which has its roots in the Folan engine Malmberg purchased outright 12 years ago. That engine has been completely redesigned over the intervening decade to the point where it is now 60 pounds lighter and nearly 50 percent more powerful. "Everything has changed," Malmberg says. "There are hundreds of changes to the castings, the crank, the clutch, the pistons; everything is different inside. There is no Folan left in it. It's all Highland now."

The Highland V-twin is almost unbelievably small-it looks more like Aprilia's 450 than anything else in the liter class. Malmberg says the motor weighs a remarkable 96.8 lbs. complete, including the starter, intakes and throttle body. "There are no exotic materials," he says. "It was designed to be a racing engine first, so we worked carefully to save material everywhere we could."

Yamaha YZ125 (2010)

2010-07-22T20:15:00.000-07:00

Talk about lightweight: At 195 lbs., the YZ is only heavy compared to a vintage bike. And it makes so much more power that it's power-to-weight ratio is off the chart. Unless you outweigh the bike, the suspension is amazing, letting you jump as far as your pinned throttle hand will let you with nary a care about landing. The brakes are just as good, but you'll seldom use them, so who cares?

Of course, all this pinning and shifting requires a lot of energy, thus you might think 125s are better left to the younger generation. Not a chance: Because it is so lightweight, it doesn't wear you out near as fast as a bigger, heavier four-stroke. Ignore the snickers as you line up at the gate, make peace with the fact that you'll never get the hole shot, and revel in being the underdog as you flow past one lumbering "diesel" after another. If it doesn't happen in the first few laps, relax; it will happen later. Let the 450s dig trenches down on the bottom and run 'er in there high, wide and handsome. Then smack the beam, pin it, fan the clutch and wheelie right over the ruts. You'll blow by them so fastest, they'll think they got buzzed by a mosquito.

2008 Kawasaki Concours 14

The 2008 Kawasaki Concours 14 is based on the ZX-14 and its monocoque chassis. It is powered by a 1352 cc engine and will feature the 6-speed transmission of the new C14. The C14 utilizes an all-new Tetra-Lever Shaft drive featuring a four-link design, which is claimed to offer the same ride quality associated with a chain drive. The new Concours sports an entire host of high-end components, including choice state-of-the-art goodies that will make any technophile giddy.

2009 Kawasaki Concour 14 ABS

The first thing needing to be mentioned related to such a bike is the type of engine powering it and if that is as reliable as well as high performing as owners demand. In this case, it would be enough just to mention that the 2009 Concours 14 features the Ninja ZX-14 1,352cc, four-stroke, liquid-cooled, DOHC, four valve per cylinder, inline-four engine which gets Variable Valve Timing. This ensures proper low and midrange acceleration without cutting in the top end or increasing fuel consumption. This feature virtually transforms the engine into a touring-worthy unit while we didn’t heard anyone complaining about the reliability of this engine, be it mounted on a Ninja or a Concours. The bike has been on the scene for quite a while now and riders have even managed to gather as much as 15-20.000 miles on it with just the usual maintenance which isn’t expensive by any means even for this category.

Getting in contact with a candidate for the “Ultimate Superbike” title can be a mind blowing experience, especially if you’re suppose to ride the hell out of the thing, but the 2010 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14 adds a little more to that feel. It’s all about the imposing dimensions and the constant thought of knowing that underneath you grumbles this manufacturer’s biggest and most evolved motor to be mounted on a superbike-type motorcycle.

2010 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R

Although Kawasaki initially had plans to launch an entirely new Ninja ZX-10R for 2010, their final decision was to stick to what they already had and slightly improve their open class sportbike in an almost unnoticeable manner. The move doesn’t turn the 2010-spec Ninja ZX-10R into a threat for the competition, but this would still have to deal with a more aggressive look and small technical tweaks now characterizing the Green racing motorcycle with headlights.

2010 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R

In 2010, the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R follows the trajectory of the previous year’s ZX-10R model and comes with the same engine and chassis refinements, the first for more power and torque and the second for sharper handling around the corners. Also, the bike is designed like its bigger sibling, leaving no clear visual difference between the two Kawasaki models.

NEW SPORT BIKE

2010 Kawasaki Ninja 650R

A wise man once said that intelligence consists in the ability
to adapt to new situations each and every time these emerge and it looks that
this is exactly what Kawasaki is doing with the Ninja 650R. This is the head of
their sports bike lineup and it meets the latest requests in matter of
performance, comfort, user-friendliness, reliability and style. It started as
Kawi’s response to the need of such a bike on the market and it got much better
with time.

2010 Kawasaki ER-6n

The series of modifications improved almost every aspect of the light and attractive Kawi bike so that the highest demands would be easily met and so far it didn’t disappoint. Furthermore, the 2010 model year gets a lowered seat from 30.9 inches to 29.7 inches, making this an even more appropriate choice for beginning riders who need to be steady on their feet.

2010 Kawasaki Versys

The updates to the often over-looked Versys come a year after the rest of the ER-6 range was revamped and improves the looks with new front and rear lights and a modified radiator cowl. The 62bhp 649cc parallel-twin motor remains unchanged, as do the chassis and suspension.

2010 Kawasaki Ninja 500R

This is the complete package: 51 mpg, aggressive style, a budget-friendly price tag, and gallons of fun -- all courtesy of the Kawasaki Ninja 500R. With its bikini fairing and belly pan, this tame Ninja oozes sexy sportbike style without compromising comfort. A liquid-cooled 498cc parallel-twin engine fires off enough torque for the twisties, while its lightweight chassis works wonders for handling. The Kawasaki Ninja 500R requires minimal maintenance and will last you for years to come. If you’ve been touched by the Ninja after seeing Top Gun, then the Kawasaki Ninja 500R is your Maverick.

2010 Kawasaki Ninja 250R

Kawasaki produced and sold the Ninja250R for 20 years before considering an upgrade and getting at work to develop a brand new model, the one that was launched a couple of yeast ago and which started a complete frenzy especially among beginning riders. Soon turning into Kawi’s best selling sport bike, the Ninja 250R carries on as a 2010 model year with virtually nothing changed on it, so the only rightful question related to it is: “Will it be the same 20 years from now?”

Yamaha has gone right for the jugular with a design straight of the 'Adventure' market mould; large lumpy engine with loads of torque, long(ish) travel suspension, high comfortable riding position, steel panniers, large tank and Dakar-esque looks.

The in-line twin cylinder engine should make the Ténéré competitive with 84ft-lb of torque. Its narrow design, by comparison to the R1200GS, is much like its other V-twin engined rival the KTM 990 Adventure. A claimed power figure of 104bhp, although ball-park, is a bit low for our liking mind you. The engine also features Yamaha's tried and tested electronic ignition system (YCC-T) and will have a three-stage traction control plus a two-mode 'D-mode' switch to engage sport or touring power options.

Running gear is practical and conventional for this class of bike; aluminium, spoked rims are the norm rather than cast type (they're stronger, should you go off-roading).

What Yamaha are calling a “smart ABS system” claims to predict locking wheels, rather than reacting after the moment like most. The brakes area also linked, front and rear. Shaft drive will be a huge bonus in terms of maintenance, despite the additional weight it brings.

Alan's 2010 Suzuki GSF1250

So, since xmas, I've been easing myself into the mindset of the Bandit owner. Part of that is re-adjusting to the riding experience: it's a big old lump, weighing in about 45kg heavier than the BMW F800R I had so much fun on. At first the mass is very noticeable, but after a few days (including one snatched ride on dry, relatively warm roads between xmas and new year) that feeling passes.

The other thing is mods. Partly that's because the basic Bandit is pretty short of gizmos. So you have to fit them yourself! But the main job so far has been winterproofing the beast. That means heated grips, heated vest connection and plenty of F365 spraying to defeat the salt.

The VMAX is powered with a new 1,679cc liquid-cooled 4-stroke DOHC 65 degree V4 engine, and as the company claims, is a showcase for some of Yamaha's engine and chassis technology, from engine control systems to the aluminium frame and the radial-mounted six-piston front brakes.
'While we do not expect sale of many units, we believe there is a set of enthusiasts that is interested in brands like the VMAX. This is like a dream bike for them, something like a Porsche in cars,' Tsuji said.
