MotoGP 2016 Round 5 Race Report: Deja Vu?
Jorge Lorenzo did what he does best, Rossi started from the third row and Marquez fails to finish. Is this a Deja vu of the 2015 season? The last time Jorge Lorenzo clinched pole and won was in the Spanish GP at Jerez in 2015 which sparked an unstoppable run of 4 consecutive wins and trailing the leader Valentino Rossi by 1 point. Will this mark the beginning of another masterclass of a season from the reigning world champion?
The difference between regular spring loaded suspensions and Nitrox charged suspensions is not merely the looks but it is the functionality that differentiates between the two major types of dampers. Spring loaded hydraulic suspensions are the conventional dampers used in two wheelers since ages, very limited change has been seen in the regular spring loaded shock absorbers.
The Hornet loves to be revved hard and it is close to the redline that the bike really comes to life. We feel it is best to ride the bike between 80 km/h to 100 km/h which it does effortlessly. With such less NVH levels, top-end performance and a butter smooth engine and gearbox, the Hornet performs really well.
Today motorcycle technology has developed so much that we have everything really easy for us. Things have changed, but the basics haven’t. We are going to discuss the difference between DC and AC electrical in a motorcycle because even today there are bikes which run either of the two systems.

One of the worst things any rider would have to face is a seized engine. Then be it in a ride or anytime really, that doesn’t matter. Let us explore a little more into what exactly causes a seized engine and how it is caused.
Expansion Chambers play extremely vital role when it comes to 2-Stroke engines and their performance. Those beautifully crafted tuned pipes that you must have seen on 2-stroke performance machines are not for aesthetics, they are custom built for generating those extra horse powers. The genesis of the Expansion Chambers dated back to the Second World War era. However, surprisingly the invention of the Tuned Pipes took place for better fuel efficiency rather than the insane performance.
When we see the rear shock absorbers of any two wheelers, they are majorly categorized into two- Mono Shock and Dual Shock absorbers. In either of the two now a days “Gas Charged or Nitrox” dampers are commonly seen. You must be wondering what these dampers are and how good they are as compare to the regular spring loaded shock absorbers? Well, we will try to explain what these Gas Filled Dampers are and How they work in this article.
CDI units, also known as Capacitor Discharge Ignition is the same electronic ignition system, but in place of using a coil and having the coil create its own spark, here the ignition is provided by the capacitor charge. The reason this is used is because the coils take a long time to collect charge and create a spark whereas the capacitor simply charges and discharges within a very quick time making it possible to create sparks quickly.
Back to the mid 2000's when concepts were as crazy as today's youngsters imagination. One such creation from Yamaha was MT-03 Café Motard Concept. Even the recently MT-03/M Slaz(MT-15) gets its design cues from this very concept. Again this is a concept based on "Sound and Emotions".
