The 2013 KTM 450 SXF

The 2013 model KTM 450SX-F represents a new SX generation. Above all, the ergonomics and function of the plastics have been designed in such a way that the whole chassis and engine package forms a perfect harmony with the rider down to the very last detail. The fuel tank and spoiler have been restyled along with the airbox cover and the front fender, including the front number plate. A particular highlight is the new front fender, which has no ribbing on the inside, to prevent mud build-up. A pioneering structure and improved attachment of the fender to the triple clamp result in up to 50% greater lateral stiffness.

The engine arrive with 449.3 cm³ (27.418 cu in) SOHC SX-F, 1-cylinder, 4-stroke engine, water-cooled, engine lubrication used pressure circulation lubrication with two Eaton pumps, ignition contactless controlled fully electronic ignition with digital ignition adjustment, clutch used multidisc clutch in oil bath/hydraulically activated and 5 - speed of transmision.

The 2013 KTM 450SX-F used modern frame design of lightweight, high-strength, chromoly steel section tubes guarantees an ideal mix of longitudinal and torsional stiffness, resulting not only in easy handling and precise steering behavior, but also in excellent ride stability. The four-stroke frames in MY 2013 feature a stiffer frame triangle and thinner-walled down tubes. This leads to an improvement in tracking stability (increased torsional stiffness) accompanied by a reduction in weight. The engine braces to the cylinder head have also been optimized, along with their attachment to the frame.

This bike also used aluminum swingarm. Its has been developed with state-of-the-art calculation and simulation software and constructed, in terms of design and wall thickness, for minimum weight with optimum stiffness and sufficient flex. For the 2013 model year, engineers have redesigned the rear section of the swingarm to allow installation of a thicker rear wheel axle (25 mm (0.98 in) instead of 20 mm (0.79 in)) for the benefit of better tracking stability.

The fork used 48 mm (1.89 in) upside-down fork featuring closed-cartridge technology has been optimized with completely revamped settings developed in the United States for perfect harmony with the new frame and engine. The new oil is significantly more wear-resistant and guarantees more consistent damping throughout both the course of a race and the bikes life cycle. A new lower triple clamp is 80 g (2.82 oz) lighter and, just like the upper triple clamp, CNC-machined from high-quality aluminum, whereby the steering characteristics, and hence, the responsiveness of the fork have been noticeably improved.

2012 Daytona Bike Week A bike show under the sun

Few people know that the Daytona Bike Week is also a large outdoor bike show. Potential buyers can make the most of it and sample a number of models from a selection of more than 200.

Harley-Davidson, Kawasaki, Suzuki, Honda, Yamaha, Triumph, Can-Am, Victory, Ducati and Boss Hoss V8 all showcase their new products under special tents at the Daytona International Speedway. Most manufacturers even allow visitors to try out their favourite two-wheeler – in a safe environment to boot.

Getting your hands on a specific model at the dealership isnt always easy. In most cases, actually, people agree to purchase a motorcycle without a prior test-ride. Thats why the bike show in Daytona is the best place in North America to choose your next motorcycle. And when you return home, there will be no doubt as to which model fits you best. The only thing left to do will be to negotiate the price.

Go ahead and take a look at our photo gallery that captures the spirit and magnitude of this unique outdoor exhibit.

Great stuff from the Packard Auto Museum courtesy of Ted Guthrie

Heres Bruce, with a German-made Horex moped, which he just unearthed. The little putter features zero miles, having never been fueled. Bruce himself is well-known for his restroration work on Indians and numerous other brands, as well as his extensive collection of BMWs and other German bikes.

This sculture, which sits in the lobby of the museum, not only shows the design of Packard automobiles famous hood ornament, but also lists some of the manufacturers innovations in the auto industry.

Heres a couple of real oldies. Just visible to the left is one of the first Packard automobiles ever produced. It runs - regularly.

Check out that gorgeous Indian sidecar rig. To the right is one of the Packard familys personal cars, dating to the 30s, plus two 50s-era concept cars in the back.

Another fabulous Indian. Look closely and you can see that the pinstriping and the tank graphic are all hand-painted. Big Packard limo in the back.

Check out these two Ariels. Square Four in the front, and a twin behind it. Fabulous restos.

Cool, Maico streetbike from the 50s. Get a load of all the interesting features. Leading-link forks, all-enclosed bodywork, gorgeous paint & graphics, crankcase induction, big, comfy seat, bar-end turn signals. Also, how bout the chicken-coop-find BMW R25 behind and to the left?

There is much more to see at the Packard museum, plus they are preparing to open a huge addition. Note that the motorcycle displays run from January - April, each year. For more information, go to: http://packardmuseum.org

Yamaha Jupiter MX with New White edition is not full white edition, as you can see that the black color has dominated the New Jupiter MX white edition, its different with the Jupiter Z white edition which its looks more clear, I mean the real white colors has comes into Jupiter Z graphics. I know that Yamaha
motorcycles still trying to make their products looks better than their rivals as like from Honda products, Suzuki, Kawasaki or also from another motorcycles brands, the white colors products innovation looks good and I like it so much, like for white color edition of course. If you never know about Jupiter motorcycles series, both of bikes (MX and Z) are two under-bone "sports style" bikes from Yamaha, its has released by Yamaha in Indonesia, the bikes also released in another country likes in Thailand as Yamaha Spark 135 named (for MX).

Aggressive styling complements the Versys dynamic flexibility and strength, and an adjustable windscreen accommodates a variety of riders.

Relieve the Glorious Past in Bol DOr Classic

Exchange traded, villages professionals, exhibitions, clubs, old motorbikes, animations and concerts attract thousands of participants in search of rare and come share their passion. With a high point, courses and demonstrations that allow pilots to face anonymous former champions on motorcycles who scored 60.70 years and 80. At Magny-Cours, in the stands in the paddock on the runway, the spectacle is everywhere!"

Well thats a translated version from French, but what is evident is the spirit!
When such is the spirit, you just know that more than a race, the Bol DOr Classic is a get together of passionate bikers!
The Classic Bol dor is a side event for the annual Bol dor Race held in France. But this is where the fun is as you get to see a huge assemble of classic bikes with each owner trying to show-off his/her priced (usually) pristine possesion.

It happens annually on the second weekend (usally around 14th) of September at Magny Cours in central France. The race is run in two 120 minute stints, with each leg preceded by demonstration laps for bikes from the 60s to the 90s. It starts on the Saturday, late into dusk and again till Sunday late afternoon.

From Nortons to Moto Guzzis to BMWs to Ducatis to Bimotas to Laverdas and of course the Japs with Kawasakis, Hondas, Yamahas and Suzukis, you will find them all here. Not to mention, a fleet of Triumphs and BSAs, of couse no classic edition can be complete without the British entrants. Below are some classic "designer" bikes from the races over the years.

The track at Magny Cours

The Bol dor on the other hand, is a part of the Endurance World Championship motorcycle race, lasts for 24 hours and each motorcycle has a team of 3 riders taking turns. The 2007 edition was the 71st edition of the race.
All in all, in totality, it is a rally, a carnival, a show, and other related events, all thrown in one epic weekend.
The 2007 race saw Suzukis supremacy (with the Suzuki GSX-R1000) since 2001 coming to an end with the victory team Yamaha, courtesy the R1. Here are the results of the 71st edition held on 2007.
From 1998 to 2006, barring 2000, Suzuki won all the races making 6 in a row from 2001-06 on the Busa and Gixer until Yamaha last year broke the spell with the R1. In total, Suzuki has won the race on 9 occasions including their first win in 1993. Yamaha has won it thrice in 1994, 2000 and the 71st edition in 2007. Kawasaki won the race 4 times in 7 years between 1991 to 1997 (91, 92, 95, 97). Honda on the other hand won all the races from 1985 to 1990, after which they had managed only one win in 1996.
