Most of you probably dreaming about riding – even owning – the Ducati Monster 110 EVO back when you were just high school kid. And now, about nineteen years later, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer still producing the iconic model but adds more sophisticated gadgets.

The 2012 Ducati Monster 110 EVO street bike has improved components and higher performance. The Ducati Monster 110 EVO carries the first Desmodue twin-valve engine with a claimed triple-digit power output. Wait… a triple-digit power output? How in the world Ducati able to do that? One of the reasons why 2012 Ducati Monster 110 EVO street bike can pull off such incredible power is the revised cylinder heads alongside with reworked intake tracts, more valve lift, and of course a bumped up compression ratio of 11.3 from 10.7 to 1. Curious how much the figures set by this Italian monster? Well, when we put the Ducati Monster 110 EVO street bike on the Dynojet 200i, it successfully pumped out 86.69 horsepower and 65.93 lb-ft of torque.

When the 2012 Ducati Monster 110 EVO reaches it peaks at 5,900rpm; the torque curve on the street bike is fairly flat and you can feel the power through the rather tall gearbox. To keep the Italian street bike on the road, the 2012 Monster 110 EVO equips with a fully adjustable 43mm Marzocchi inverted fork that is coupled to a Sachs rear shock.

The standard features on the 2012 Ducati Monster 110 EVO street bike include a version of Ducati’s DTC traction control system and ABS brakes. Just for comparison; if the Ducati 1198 superbike has eight levels of traction control, the 2012 Monster 110 EVO carries four levels. In the real life, it is all it needs as half the power output will outburst loose the Pirelli Diablo Rosso II rear tire.

After revving the 2012 Ducati Monster 110 EVO street bike, pulling it down from speed is a joy and you will find out that the ABS system is not too intrusive. To grip the 320mm front rotors that offers sold bite and excellent feel is the complementary from the four-piston Brembo calipers. Want to own your childhood dream street bike?

NEW BMW HP2 SPORT BIKE

2011 BMW HP2 Sport

With a staggering 130 horsepower, the HP 2 Sport features the most powerful Boxer engine ever designed by BMW Motorrad. For the first time ever, double overhead camshafts are included in our famous opposed twin cylinder motor, kicking out even more revs. Making the HP2 Sport even more track-ready is new Quickshifter technology, which means faster gear changes without having to chop the throttle or use the clutch. Add a fully adjustable Ohlins sport front and rear suspension, Radial mounted Brembo Monobloc brakes, a lightweight carbon fiber aerodynamic fairing, not to mention forged racing wheels and tires and a MotoGP-inspired cockpit that computes lap times and other racing data, and the result is one of the most advanced sport bikes to ever scorch the tarmac.

Outstanding race results are inexorably linked with BMW Motorrad’s flat twin “Boxer” models. So it is an obvious step to build a high-end version! The result is the BMW HP2 Sport: the uncompromising realisation of the 24-Hour Endurance racer as a road machine. 100 per cent motor racing genes, licensed for the road. An exclusive sports machine by BMW Motorrad for motor racing connoisseurs and 2-cylinder enthusiasts which puts racing expertise into serial production – with power and authenticity. With an incredible air/oil-cooled 98 kW (133 bhp) and 115 Nm – a unique performance for a serial production “Boxer”!

For ambitious sports riders, the BMW HP2 Sport is the non plus ultra: consistent lightweight construction, excusive details and top-class materials give it truly unique quality. The self-supporting front and rear sections in carbon, even lighter forged wheels and filigree components reduce the dry weight to an impressive 178 kg. Exclusive motor racing features to be found in serial production for the first time such as the shift assistant which allows shifting without accelerator release and clutch disengagement, and the DOHC cylinder head with its four radially arranged valves. A maximum engine speed of 9500 rpm provides pure Grand Prix feeling! Speed fans can enjoy complete banking freedom since the aerodynamic high-quality steel exhaust system has been moved under the engine and seat and ends in an attractive rear silencer in the single-section rear. The large-volume silencer provides an inimitable “Boxer” sound - an acoustic thrill for racers. The 2D GP dashboard derived from Moto-GP racing provides all information to the cockpit. The chassis, ergonomics and vehicle geometry are individually adjustable, guaranteeing excellent handling. This orientation to the rider’s personality is highlighted by the use of carbon: due the consistency of this material the trim is made almost entirely by hand, making every BMW HP2 Sport a unique specimen.

In short: the refinement of the BMW HP2 Sport combines impressively high riding performance and exclusive visual appearance to provide maximum riding pleasure as you have never experienced it on a flat twin “Boxer” before!

 

2011 BMW HP2 Sport Features

When BMW Motorrad presented the BMW HP2 Sport in autumn 2007, a dream came true for many boxer fans. Not only is the BMW HP2 Sport still the sportiest and most powerful series production flat twin of all time tailored to meet the needs of ambitious two-cylinder sports riders – its numerous exclusive details used up to now only in motorsports which entered series production for the first time on the HP2 Sport are truly fascinating.

Now BMW Motorrad is following up with the road-licensed “HP2 Sport Motorsport” special model.

The HP2 Sport achieved numerous successes in scores of races all over the world in the past 3 years, among other things with the BMW Motorrad Works Team in selected Endurance World Cup races. The racing boxer took part in renowned 24-hour classics such as Le Mans or Bol d'Or.

Like the factory machines the fairing, fuel tank, seat bench, front mudguard and engine spoiler are painted in the BMW Motorsport colours Alpine White, Lupine Blue metallic and Magma Red. The forged aluminium wheels are in Lupine Blue metallic at the front and Alpine White at the rear. In addition this exclusive special edition with the green and black start number areas on the seat body as well as the factory sticker set is visually very close to the successful BMW Motorrad Motorsport works motorcycle.

The HP2 Sport Motorsport has the same technical basis as the HP2 Sport launched in 2007. The flat twin engine equipped with double overhead camshafts and high-engine-speed capable cam followers used for valve operation delivers 98 kW (133 hp) at 8750 rpm. Maximum torque is 115 Nm at 6000 rpm, maximum engine speed being 9500 rpm.

The stainless steel exhaust system runs underneath the engine and generates the inimitable throaty boxer sound from a silencer which is aerodynamically well placed under the seat bench.

A further exclusive racing feature is the shift assistant in conjunction with the closely synchronised gearbox which permits fast upshifting without having to operate the clutch or stop accelerating. In order to reverse the shift pattern for motorracing if required, a respective substitution pressure sensor is available as an option.

The equipment and suspension of the BMW HP2 Sport Motorsport also features motorracing technology. The spring elements of the Öhlins sports suspension are fully adjustable and a Brembo braking system with radially bolted monoblock four-piston fixed callipers ensures optimum deceleration even in tough motorracing conditions.

Optimum ergonomics are ensured by the adjustable foot rest system, the cast aluminium adjustable handlebar ends as well as the radial-hand Magura instruments. The standard 2D dashboard, which stems directly from MotoGP racing, provides the rider with conventional information as well as with lap times and further motorsports relevant data.

Lightweight construction was a major factor in designing all components. This not only includes the self-supporting front fairing and the self-supporting rear made of carbon or the weight-optimised forged wheels, but also hidden details such as the lightweight generator used in motorsports.

With a dry weight of only 178 kilograms (199 kg fully fuelled according to the DIN norm), the BMW HP2 Sport Motorsport provides playful handling and great motorsports potential, be it on country roads or on the racetrack.

As an option BMW Motorrad offers ABS especially adapted for sports use. An additional pressure sensor in the front brake circuit permits more sensitive brake regulation and prevents the control unit from releasing the front brake too early when weight is taken off the rear wheel suddenly. The ABS can also be deactivated for racetrack use.

Honda CBR250R

The most anticipated motorcycle of 2011 the Honda CBR 250R is finally here in India. When we rode the CBR 250r in Thailand we were very impressed but, a quick spin in Indian conditions was what we were curious to know more about.

The ride started at Saki Naka, one of the most congested areas in Mumbai, that too in peak office hours. The CBR's 250cc engine is a short stroke design developing 25bhp of power at 8500rpm. Robust 2.3kgm of torque is developed at 7000rpm. However, even at low rpms there's sufficient torque in tap. The CBR felt quite at ease crawling through traffic. It didn't have to be kept on the boil. Instead, shifting up a gear or two on the slick 6-speed gearbox works well as the torque takes care of the rest. The crisp light action of the clutch doesn't put any strain either.

The most action packed zone is in the mid range. Snap the throttle open, let the revs cross the 4000rpm mark and the CBR just leaps forward. It will pull relentlessly to its near 11000rpm redline. Honda claims a top speed of 150kmh. liquid cooling and 4-valve technology let the CBR feel effortless even when pushed hard.

The conventional down tube forks at the front and the pro-link rear may feel a bit soft for the race track, but out on our far from perfect roads, the CBR felt incredibly comfortable to be on. It glided over un-tarred patches, and didn't crash in potholes either. The seating position isn't too hunched over so there isn't any strain on your wrists or shoulders. Steering it through traffic was a breeze too. While it was light to steer, the wide fairing mounted mirrors took a bit of getting used to, but after that it was no problem to slip through gaps. A must have feature is the combined abs system; Knowing that the wheels cannot lock up and land you on the tar makes riding a lot more fun, especially since unpredictable and potentially dangerous surfaces are in no short supply. So, the CBR felt comfortable in more ways than one over our roads.

This delicious motorcycle has already attracted 3600 bookings. It's VFR1200 inspired headlamp, the CBR1000RR inspired fairing give it a really upmarket, big bike look. The pricing too is hard to miss. The non-ABS version costs Rs1.51lakh while the C-ABS version costs significantly more at Rs 1.77L. The CBR 250R promises to be a versatile motorcycle that'll be easy to live with. Stay tuned for a full

report as we test the CBR250R's claims and put it through its paces.

Looks & Styling of Kawasaki Ninja 250R

Ninja 250R is the best looking 250cc sports bike in its segment. Though there is no direct competition to Ninja 250R as it is the only proper 250cc bike on sale in India. It comes with complete fairing with large plastic and steel parts. Ninja 250R features a very aggressive look when viewed head-on, as it features dual-lamp headlamp. The rear view mirrors are mounted the smart fairing which is very well integrated in line with the overall look of the bike.

Between the mirrors, there is black tinted windscreen that offers protection for the rider. Front turn indicators, however, are in the conventional style that also come out of the fairing. The mask fairing goes down at fuel tank and engine. Only the bike monogram is pasted over the petrol tank and airscoops. Ninja 250R comes factory fitted with 6 spoke black alloy wheels which looks very stunning with racing strips at rim. Under the rear seat, there are two helmet holders. The tail side is also have sporty looks. The tail protection cover is slim and sharp. Step-up seat is another attracting feature of the bike.

Instrument Cluster & Features of Kawasaki Ninja 250R

The instrument cluster of Ninja 250R disappoints a bit as it comes in analog format. Speedometer, odometer, trip meter and tachometer are in analouge mode. It looks a bit boring in comparison to other Indian bikes we are used to, like we have digital cum analog instrumet cluster for Apache RTR, Pulsar 220 and Karizma ZMR. The cluster features some warning lights such as low oil, low fuel, choked air filter, high oil temperature and low battery indicators.

Engine & Trasmission of Kawasaki Ninja 250R

Bajaj has launched the European Spec Kawasaki Ninja 250R in Indian market. It is powered by a 249cc liquid cooled, parallel twin, DOHC petrol engine which develops maximum power of 32 Bhp at 11000 rpm with maximum torque of 22 Nm at 8200 rpm. The Ninja 250R features a six-speed transmission that has been revised for smoother shifting, and is mated to a more durable clutch. It also features an entirely new radiator provides better cooling while being lighter in weight.

The engine of Ninja 250R has been tuned to deliver smooth, step-free power with an emphasis on low- and mid-range power for rider-friendly response. The Pistons feature reinforced heads and strengthening in the pin boss area for increased durability and also thick piston (longitudinally) rings help minimize oil consumption. The combustion chamber has been designed and optimized to maximize combustion efficiency and reduce emissions

Performance Figures Of Kawasaki Ninja 250R:

1) 0-100km/h : 5.75 sec
2) Top speed : 176km/h
3) Fuel economy : 42.5 Kmpl - Claimed By Bajaj India

Ninja 250R features refined intake and exhaust ports contribute to good off-idle response and smooth power delivery. Also the valve timing and lift has been designed for strong low- and mid-range torque while direct valve actuation ensures reliable high-rpm operability. And valves with thin heads and stems reduce reciprocating weight with 2-into-1 exhaust system contributes to the Ninja 250R’s low- and mid-range torque and smooth, step-free power curve. It meets strict emissions with dual catalyzers; one in the collector pipe and the other in the silencer positioning the first catalyzer as close to the exhaust ports maximizes its efficiency as well

The silky smooth 6-speed Gearbox features involute splines reduce friction and backlash between gears and shafts for easier gear meshing and smooth shifting under power. Also with spring-type clutch damper reduces jerkiness at very low speeds and minimizes shocks when rolling on and off the throttle for a smoother clutch feel. The paper-base friction plates help increase clutch durability.

Chasis, Suspension & Brakes of Kawasaki Ninja 250R

On the chassis front, Ninja 250R features a new diamond-type frame constructed of high tensile steel provides a steeper steering head rake angle, which results in an unchanged wheelbase when mated with a longer swingarm. The fork is larger and stiffer, with revised settings in comparison to 2008 model of Ninja 250R. Ninja's 37mm telescopic front fork with firm settings contribute to the 250R’s smooth, stable handling and enhanced ride control.

Also with uni-Trak rear suspension which compliments the rigid frame and re-tuned fork and provides great road holding ability. Rear shock features 5-way adjustable preload, enabling ride height to be maintained whether riding solo or with a passenger. The stopping power of Ninja 250R comes from large-diameter, 290mm front hydraulic disc at the front and a balanced action two-piston caliper offers excellent braking performance and a natural, direct feeling at the lever. The rear features two-piston caliper grips the rear 220mm petal disc

Price Of Kawasaki Ninja 250R

Though it was speculated that Ninja 250R is going to be priced around 2 lakh rupees but Ninja 250R is priced at Rs. 3.03lakhs (On-road Mumbai) which is very high and will keep many prospective buyers away from buying this awesome bike.
