In July 2003, the renewed Bimota organization, still in a start-up stage, chose to come back to the commercial center with another model which would be 'Una Vera Bimota' fusing the best articulation of innovation, advancement and Made in Italy design flair. Therefore was conceived the new Bimota DB5 Mille.
MotoGP machines are manufactured only around one goal- to win the championship and decimate the competition. Manufacturers spend millions on researching and exploiting the machinery to the last bit. But, there's always a separate department that searches for loopholes and notifies the team of engineers to look it up.
It was a cold night and I was out with two of my friends heading towards Lavasa. I don’t know what happened but a friend of mine who was a pillion, gave his helmet to me and took mine as my helmet was acting funny (wind power mind you!). As I started leaning before that corner the bike started behaving absurdly, like it was fighting against my will to turn, I ran wide.
We have the laws, where wearing a helmet is a compulsion, on papers at least. In some cities, especially at the Financial Year endings, helmets are enforced and people are charged heavily if they violate the rules. As a result many roadside helmet shops emerge. And the prices start from as low as 300 rupees if not less. Well, their usual customer base is the people who want to buy helmets just to avoid the fines. Every year this happens, again and again.
There are some engine oil “additives” in the market which claim to improve your engine’s output and efficiency and keep the engine cleaner. But the main question here is do they really work? Let's find out-
Motorsport on two wheels has been on track for almost a century now. The previous championships involved a showdown between two strokes (Limited to 500cc engines) and also was a 2 stroke vs 4 stroke affair in the 1970's. The regulations then became more stringent and manufacturer-friendly to attract more number of bikes onto the starting grid and gain the reputation as the best form of racing amongst purists.
Today not many bikes come with dual shocks on the rear, and those who do are the budget commuter ones which concentrate more on giving more distance to the fuel burnt and also being able to carry as much as weight it is asked to carry like a fully laden donkey. So here we are going to check out the various kinds of dual shock absorbers available for the bikes as follows:
We live in a world where everyone is just trying to belong somewhere. In the pursuit of belonging, people might do something that makes them think they are cool, or following something or someone is cool. And that is what has given birth to the term fake fanboyism.
If you are also wondering like us as to why Honda is being such a douche and not introducing the new updated Honda CBR 150R, 250R and the new 300R. Well, you might think that it is not feasible for the company to invest so much into India and the current crop of bikes are doing well for the company if we look at the figures. But seriously, is only that what it takes for a company to make such decisions?
This motorcycle may not be for everyone's liking. We have heard from many who loved the motorcycle for its looks, many more going for it just because it is being built from the metal of INS Vikrant and few complaining about its looks. Overall, the motorcycle looks very good, it definitely looks better from the side as well as the rear profile.
