Custom Street Triumph Daytona 675 by Zero Gravity
Custom Street Triumph Daytona 675 by Zero Gravity
Custom Street Triumph Daytona 675 by Zero Gravity
Triumph Daytona 675's mechanicals were thrust into the spotlight, necessitating a cosmetic refresh of the components normally hidden beneath a fairing. Because the polished finish of its Galespeed wheels set a certain visual tone, that look was echoed with the Woodcraft rearsets and billet engine and stator cases, which were offset with anodized stainless steel pucks.
To refine up the visuals, several hoses surrounding the Daytona 675cc inline three-cylinder were re-routed. A polished can of Red Bull was utilized for overflow collection, and Cook chose to frame the newly fetishized powerplant with café racer-style bodywork.
Taking the stock fiberglass fairing and extending its tail section, Cook drew cut lines and resculpted it for an elongated profile. His company's trademark windscreen was installed, its curved shape reflecting an evolution of the Double Bubble screen that debuted on Ienatsch's 1995 bike.
Once the styling was finalized, Cook tapped Chris Wood at Air Trix for a distinctive paint scheme. Wood had been responsible for the metalflake paint on the Zero Gravity-sponsored Honda CBR600 SuperSport bikes campaigned by Ben and Eric Bostrom in 1997, and the Daytona pays tribute to the Bostrom bikes with a metalflake gold layer sitting atop white and silver striations, broken up with two thin red stripes. Atop the chiseled tank is a two-tone gold leaf Zero Gravity logo, and both wheels are guarded by Nexray carbon fiber fenders. Mike Lira was responsible for the Daytona's final assembly.
The custom Daytona's one-off bodywork and streamlined engine components lend it a sleeker, slicker look than the factory's naked Street Triple, and the mechanical alterations include greater power working in concert with a significant reduction in weight.
But how does this retro-styled Triumph Daytona 675 ride address the road?
I threw a leg over the Zero Gravity Daytona 675, and its first hint of personality came from the deep rumble of the underseat LeoVince exhaust. Even at idle the pipes are loud, and a blip of the throttle summons a bellow that echoes for blocks. The auditory effect certainly makes for a stirring ride, and the Triumph's acceleration feels smooth and urgent, adding a noticeably more flexible spread of torque than the stock version.
Cutting through the pancake-flat onion fields of Camarillo just a few miles from the Malibu coast, the engine's pull becomes most insistent when revs approach the 9000 rpm range, but a glimpse of a red and blue light bar ahead discourages gross displays of decibels. Patience and extended dragging of front and rear brakes finally brings the bike to Potrero Road, an undulating canyon two-laner that aggressively twists into a mélange of off camber and decreasing radius turns, replete with dramatic elevation changes and blind corners. The Daytona responds with a tilt and a yawn; the swift and agile middleweight flicks through the corners effortlessly; its sticky Dunlop Sportmax GP-A rubber, and slightly thicker rear tire, gluing the bike to tarmac. The pipe emits an ever-meaner note against the canyon walls, and the bike's front wheel becomes pleasingly light with throttle provocation.
It is an all-too-brief ride aboard Zero Gravity's trick Daytona 675, but that brevity is probably all the better, since confidence accumulates quickly and there is a precipitous line between self-assured speed and metalflake paint-scraping error. Returning to Zero Gravity headquarters brings back untested engine pucks and unscathed bodywork, and the ease with which the Triumph carries its speed makes the motorcycle feel less like a show bike and more like a go bike. As a two-wheeled homage to bygone racers goes, that statement is worth its weight in titanium.

2013 New Honda CBR400R revealed

"Honda is developing a new CBR400R to sit between the CBR600RR and CBR250R in the firm's sportsbike line-up".
The bike, an artist's impression of which is shown on the bottom right of the magazine's front cover (in case you're wondering, the main image is the Japanese-market Megelli 250R), is reckoned to have a parallel twin engine derived from the same family as the CBR250R's single.
Making around 50bhp, the 400 would have roughly twice the power of the CBR250R, but still less than half that of the CBR600RR, making it a perfect stepping stone between learner machines and full-on sports bikes, sales of which are dropping off worldwide as riders increasingly turn to less intimidating, slower bikes.
The enduring popularity of secondhand grey import 400cc machines like the old Honda VFR400R NC30 shows that there are still riders who'd like the style and handling of a sportsbike without the high insurance and 100bhp-plus performance. While those old 400s were made to meet Japanese licensing laws, and when new often cost more than 600s thanks to more exotic components and construction, the new rumours suggest a simpler, cheaper bike. With new 600s hitting the £9000 mark, more than twice the cost of the £4k CBR250R, the potential for an intermediate machine at around £5k-£6k is undeniable. And Honda isn't the only firm realising that, as KTM's already-revealed plans for a 350cc road-going replica of its Moto3 machine show.
In terms of appearance, Young Machine's artist's impression is by no means definitive. It shares some of the style of the CBR250R allied to a CBR600RR-style nose; a proposition that is believable in terms of the bike's rumoured positioning in the range, although with the CBR600RR already well overdue for replacement we'd be hoping that any new Honda sports bike – whether a 400 or a 600 – would show a new generation of styling.

Honda CBR1000RR drag bike achieves 200MPH
Honda CBR1000RR drag bike achieves 200MPH,Honda Drag Race team finished off the season with an amazing ProStreet win on the little cbr1000rr. The win was just a matter of time considering the Honda’s record setting ways since the U S Nationals. The most amazing part was that Cycle World editor Nick Ienatsch (a road racer) road the bike into the record books with the win. Stotz Racing rider Frankie Stotz said, "Nick and the cbr1000rr performed flawlessly this weekend and we are excited and expect more of the same next year when I get a shot at the title”.
READ MORE - Honda CBR1000RR drag bike achieves 200MPH
Kent Stotz decided mid season to pull his son Frankie from the Super Street class and put him on the ProStreet RR to get him ready for a 2009 ProStreet championship. With Frankie setting the 1/8mile record and winning 2 regional events, Frankie and the cbr1000rr are more than ready for 2009 ProStreet.
Kent called Cycle World and asked if they would be interested in doing an article on what these DOT legal, 500+ horsepower street bikes are like to ride. Nick Ienatsch was the obvious choice as he had done the Cycle World UFO articles and rode the Honda cbr1100xx (Blackbird) for a similar article in 2005. Nick was very excited, as he had been overwhelmed and unprepared for the explosive and sudden death structure of AMA/Pro drag racing in his 2005 experience. That did not happen this weekend.
After qualifying 4th, Nick’s stellar reaction times to the drag race specific Christmas Tree start, and a 7.28 ET got him the win in the semi-final over #1 qualifier and 3 time champion Mike Slowe. Another .007 reaction time in the final showed that Nick and the Stotz Racing cbr1000rr were here to win. After the winners circle photos Nick is quoted as saying, "I think of Kent Stotz as the Honda dragracing equivalent of Miguel DuHammel and Al Ludington, all rolled into one person. He's tuned and ridden Hondas to four ProStreet national championships and people have referred to him as the Godfather of ProStreet. He's the perfect guy to have in your corner”.
New livery Honda CBR150R 2012 version same like CBR1000R
New livery Honda CBR150R 2012
Although just different striping, but the graphics are so close to his new brother CBR1000R. Two line override each other is exactly the same sharp angular shape with a 4 cylinder Honda motorcycle.
The most visible can be seen the white color variants in the photo. Motive like her twin! As representing the spirit of bikes in the 150cc DOHC motor.
In Thailand, Honda CBR 150R with new motifs priced 75,900 baht or equivalent to IDR 22.4 million. Being in Indonesia, with a marketed tax IDR 33 million.
Because the Honda CBR 150R is sold in Indonesia come from Thailand, this variant also likely to be sold mass in Indonesia.
