Modifications Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade

Modifications Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade. Shorn of Honda's badly chosen paint jobs, the ridiculously huge number plate hanger and minus the mirrors, this bike achieves a strikingly aggressive, timeless look. RSD build this CBR to benefit pediatric brain tumor foundation, Ride For kids. It'll be making appearances at each round of the International Motorcycle show, where it'll be raffled off to raise money for the charity. We know Roland's been hankering to get his hands on the new CBR since it premiered last year and we really like what he's done to it, the only thing we'd leave off are the tacky wheels.

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.

Custom Street Vyrus 986 M2

Custom Street Vyrus 986 M2

Vyrus 986 M2,Since its debut, the Vyrus 986 M2 has undergone some changes, most notably the hub-center steering design now has a direct steering column to the rider, likely the help increase the steering feedback. While hub-center steering benefits from separating the steering, braking, and suspension forces from each other, in practical application the design has had an uphill battle winning over riders who have grown accustomed to how a conventional fork front-end operates.


With established riders literally growing up on modern fork suspension technology, companies like Vyrus have to contend with riders having to re-learn how to race a motorcycle (an issue similar to the one in MotoGP, where riders have to relearn how to ride using carbon fiber brakes and the unique Bridgestone spec-tires). From an engineering perspective, the mechanical setup of most hub-center steering systems also adds to the problem, with multiple linkages usually involved in transmitting the rider’s inputs at the handlebars to the front wheel.


With this revised front-end design on the Vyrus 986 M2, the Rimini-based company looks to be using a steering column that directly applies the force from the handlebars to the front wheel, while the hub-center swing arm sill does work from a suspension and braking point-of-view. Perhaps not as visually stunning as the original release, it should function much better on the street and especially on the track.

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”.

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”.

Honda NC700X Vs Yamaha XJ6 Diversion

After a first round against a reference trail road, the Suzuki 650 V-Strom 2012, it is time to oppose the new Honda NC 700  X 4 cylinder to a road, able to satisfy both beginners and experienced bikers. The arguments “classic“ of the Yamaha XJ6 Diversion will they measure up to those of the new Honda crossover? Verdict …

Honda NC 700 X vs Yamaha XJ6 Diversion S: The comparative

We saw in our first comparison against the Suzuki DL650 V-Strom that the new Honda NC 700 X is almost as a roadster a trail road. Moreover, a user of Honda Transalp 600 crossed in Reims during our test, let go, “the new Honda? I’d say it half a trail.“ There, wrapped it weighed. And there is nothing surprising in this respect, since the new Honda NC 700 X is based on a platform “multifunction“ (Trail, Roadster and maxi scooter) and also offers an ergonomic hybrid. When you jump from one seat to another, calling it truth, or usefulness of comparisons.
On the Honda, it does not suffer too much the feeling of climbing, despite a saddle 830 mm, 45 mm more than the Yamaha, so a gap. Then, the Honda NC 700 X offers very relaxed position, with legs and arms folded under more relaxed and removed as the Diversion. So much for the trail – and so relaxing – the Honda. The Yamaha XJ6, the saddle really lower (785 mm) will be a real asset for small jigs and the fairer sex. It will be crucial in the U-turns, stops on slippery surfaces and all situations where it is beneficial to place one foot flat frankly.

Yamaha XJ6 Diversion: DNA Motorcycle School

The stripped version of the Diversion, the Yamaha XJ6, many motorcycle school team: we understand why the Diversion is so easy to understand. But yet the Honda NC 700 X advance other arguments. First, between the flexibility of controls, the box more smooth than the Yamaha, injection free of a sudden, we must recognize that the Honda NC 700  X is not without approval. It also shines better than the Yamaha XJ6 Diversion and – thanks to its upright position and ergonomics typical trail – it requires less effort when sneaks.
City and suburban roads, we drive “to cool“ on the Honda, but very soon, we discover an unusual engine use. It delivers an immediate torque (maximum value is located just 4856 r / min) at the opening of the throttle. This gives almost a side “punchy“ when starting on the hubcaps.

But the illusion did not last long and it is faced with an extension almost non-existent. The twin of the Honda NC 700 X does not couple to the power like most modern motorcycle engines and cutting its impulses to 6500 rev / min in a shaking switch
Tails the moment chosen for the Yamaha XJ6 Diversion place extends all typical 4-cylinder. As for performance, one suspects, the Yamaha XJ6 Diversion easily clears the Honda NC 700 X at the lower stretch. 24.4 hp. between them over anyway. Furthermore, the Yamaha is capitalizing on the origins of its mechanical sports, with a thrust which is growing, a sound that is sounding the air box … short, when you push the bottom third, as we know. Most probably enjoy sports.

Honda NC 700 X: Rest and reasonable

But if performance is a general accreditation something – something that makes sense on a daily basis – is another. Placed on the Honda, I try to rewind or advance me a few millimeters to find the best position, which will spare me the turbulence created by the bubble rather small, while watching the highway Champagne.
The parallel twin seems frozen at 4000 r / min and obviously evil at the root command a stop before fatigue or boredom. Diversion on the pace highlights legal protection actually quite decent, better than the Honda. The times, once again relegate the Honda NC 700 X, and for good reason … The new Honda takes a long time in the sixth when the Yamaha takes very short in the sixth: 3 000 r / min difference for a cylinder neighbor.
The Honda NC 700 then X supports a rotational speed down to also include its use as the Yamaha takes to boost short times. So, obviously, the Yamaha XJ6 Diversion takes the left lane highways with no complex, but its “mill” to 130 km / h and more, quickly becomes boring and you point out in the Maxitest. You can not have everything.

Town and country: Honda NC 700 X defends

If Honda is losing ground in raw performance, the Honda-style returns in law. On smaller roads, walking mode, it defends itself with a good torque and comfort slightly higher (more relaxed riding position, saddle less firm). In addition, she did not leave after a with chassis similar to that of a roadster with its 17-inch wheels. Thanks to a center of gravity lower than the Yamaha, the Honda NC700X twirls in the pif-PAFS with great lightness and ease. Better still, it allows for more improvisation with his big handlebar that offers quite a lever arm.

 

The suspensions are more flexible on the Honda also participate in comfort, but do not harm or little driving precision. In fact, if we want to have fun while cornering, the Honda can easily stick to the train of Yamaha. The latter is more rigid, which is felt as input curve: the Diversion looks more “block”. In addition, the fork debate goes back more gradually and less when you start forcing the handlebars. But on small poorly paved roads, it requires more effort despite the excellent security of the Michelin Pilot Road 3 up (against Bridgestone BT 21 series).
The Honda, no less effective, is often more natural. Surprisingly, his only front brake disc is not a problem in current use. Probably inhibits the Yamaha XJ6 she stronger, but never shows Honda NC700X dangerous. Side approval, the braking of the Yamaha is good, but the outbreak of the ABS produces a slight rebound in the brake pedal. And if one insists, the bike extension as expected slowdown of its distance, making pumping suspensions in the process. Honda ABS control devices and full approval is still here in the game.

Conclusion: Two different philosophies

Back in town, we choose to park in a large place. Operation Seduction – practical tendency – for Honda: just open the safe located in the wrong tank to take the lock and swipe his helmet and go for window shopping, hands in pockets. On the Yamaha is no salvation: the “U” must be properly chosen to buy the bike, otherwise it will go through the box-top box or tank bag … and it will be to carry around the headphones. Everyone will not be 100% sensitive to this type of practical argument, especially since the Yamaha has a center stand as standard, unlike the Honda. But those who have tasted the Aprilia Mana for example, have become addicted.
Finally, these two bikes are very close in points that can give them, but further away from philosophy. The Honda is the practical, the flexibility of daily use, some form of ease and peace of use. And it will be even more the case with the double-clutch automatic transmission (DCT). This pack of approval “useful“ exchanged against € 6,490. The Yamaha XJ6 Diversion in proposing it more? As for performance, for sure. Approval side, it is less so. Certainly, it allows more fun, with its sporty engine character, but this character is sometimes boring. Too bad. It is still quite a good tool on a daily basis and shows competitive € 6 990.
