Amazing Off Road Bike KTM 300 XC-W


This motorcycle is a motorcycle off road racing that is worthy of consideration if you are a fan of racing off road. The 300 is slim, light and simply feels like a racer when you are sitting on it in the garage. KTM markets the machine as a ‘do it all’ bike, so it has minimal off-road frills but the wiring to run enduro lighting, the off-road racer’s preferred 18” rear wheel, an X-ring chain, a big quiet muffler and adequate fuel capacity (Three gallons) for a typical enduro loop. It even has an electronic odometer, important if you are racing timekeeping style enduros. The other stuff is all ‘normal KTM motocross bike’, with the suspension set up somewhere between motocross-stiff and enduro-squish.

Interesting Motorcycle Kawasaki Vulcans


The motorcycle is suitable for you fans of touring bikes. Its name is Kawasaki Vulcans. Vulcans represent Kawasaki’s cruiser line of motorcycles and have come in a variety of sizes from as small as 500cc to as large as 2053cc. Due to a U.S. tariff on imported motorcycles larger than 700 cc’s, Kawasaki limited the original Kawasaki Vulcan to 699cc until the tariff was lifted in 1986. The Kawasaki Vulcan 750 was powered by a liquid-cooled, DOHC, V-Twin engine producing 60 horsepower. The Kawasaki Vulcan’s five-speed gearbox sent power to the rear wheel via a shaft drive. The Vulcan 750 stayed in Kawasaki’s model line-up for 23 years, finally ceasing production after the 2006 model year.

Amazing Yamaha R1


The main key performance Yamaha R1 is in the transmission. R1 delivers more power than 132-hp. This vehicle only requires less than three seconds to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph. While the maximum speed reached 165 mph. Extraordinary!
The original engine design was the five-valves-per-cylinder engine format, but the 2007 model did away with that technology, replacing it with the more standard four-valves-per-cylinder layout. In 2009, borrowing from Yamaha’s MotoGP effort and the highly successful M1 prototype, the new R1 featured an engine with a cross-plane crankshaft, creating an uneven firing interval for an alleged increase in a rider’s feeling of rear-tire grip. Also introduced in 2009 is the D-Mode, Throttle Control Valve Mapping which allows the rider to select differing power delivery depending on road or track conditions.

Amazing Motorcycle 2011 Harley-Davidson Blackline Softail


Just like other Softails, Harley’s counterbalanced TC96B powers the Blackline through a 6-speed transmission, but it boasts a fresh two-tone look. Its lower end is powdercoated gloss black, accented with silver powdercoat on the cylinder heads with machined highlights. Chrome brightwork is provided on its derby and timing covers and its simple, round air cleaner, followed by a chrome over/under shotgun exhaust. “Just enough shine to make the black parts look blacker,” says Harley.
The Blackline’s riding position is aggressive, with a fists-forward reach to the narrow, internally wired handlebar. H-D’s designers first tried to fashion clip-on handlebars, but they proved to be hard to fit while maintaining adequate steering sweep, and they’d also take away customization options. Forward foot controls are polished.
The axles of the 21-inch front wheel and 16-inch rear are set 66.5 inches apart, while the rake angle is laid down to 30 degrees. As is typical of Harley’s slammed cruisers, lean angles when cornering are quite limited: just 24.4 degrees to the left and 25.9 to the right. Rear-suspension travel is a decent 3.6 inches.
Braking duties are handled by 4-piston calipers biting on 292mm rotors front and rear, which should be adequate for the Blackline’s 683-lb fully fueled weight. Anti-lock brakes are available in an optional $1195 package that includes H-D’s Smart Security System.
