Ducati Diavel AMG Special Edition

Ducati Diavel AMG Special EditionThis is the Ducati Diavel AMG Special Edition. The first bike to come from Bologna's factory to wear the badge of the German car manufacturer. The details that distinct this AMG SE Diavel from the standard one are: signature 5-spoke wheels, carbon fibre lateral radiator grills with aluminium trim, engraved end caps on a AMG designed exhaust tips and the new seat - upholstered incorporating horizontal stitching lines.

A special edition run from Ducati would of course not be complete without a numbering plaque (no word yet on how high that number will count though), which will be affixed to the gas tank.

The Ducati Diavel AMG Special Edition comes only in matte black carbon fiber bodywork, and has AMG's "Diamond White Bright" paint striping on the fuel tank, and color-matching frame accents. The special edition wheels, seat, and exhaust end-caps are all AMG branded (natch), while "AMG" is also laser-engraved into the air-duct panels that are on either side of the fuel tank.

Ducati Monster 1100 Wayne Ransom Edition

Ducati Monster 1100 Wayne Ransom EditionYou don't see bikes like this too often. The Japanese brands all chopped and shortened with fat tires, yes, but to take the Ducati as a platform and to build streetfighter machine, you don't see it everyday that's for sure. This amazing looking fatty was built by Ryan Danger (this is the name he goes by in Ducati Comunity) and we must say he done one hell-of-a-job. Taking 2009 Ducati Monster 1100 and reworking much of the parts on the bike is a bold move, while sticking the 300mm rear is a down right sacrilege (for Ducati folks).

It's not a cornering machine, not like the original Monster or Duc 848, and you would say it's pretty loud. Check out those shortened exhausts - "tire warmers" :) .

The sound is enough to make you deaf after an hour of riding...with your earplugs on. Ryan particularly love to pull next to the Harley boys and crank that throttle wide open, just to let them know that Duc can play that game as well.

2012 Honda CBR 1000RR Fireblade

2012 Honda CBR 1000RRThese are the first photos of Honda's 2012 Fireblade. Besides the new angular styling, the bike has Big Piston Forks, new rear suspension, new clocks and lightweight wheels.

Those hoping for a V4 will be disappointed, as the engine appears almost identical to this year's model. Also, there are no signs of any traction control - the switchgear has no extra buttons and the new dash has nothing to indicate there are any S1000RR-rivalling electronics.

The bike in the photos does not have any wheel speed sensor rings, so it seems Honda will continue to give customers the option to do without ABS.

The photos were posted on Honda's Hong Kong Facebook page, but have now been taken down.

2011 Yamaha YZF-R1

2011 Yamaha YZF-R1The MotoGP-inspired R1 is the most advanced Open-class production motorcycle.

The 2011 Yamaha R1 represents a paradigm shift in technology, performance and controllability among litre class sport bikes. Inspired by Yamaha's M1 MotoGP race bike, this latest generation R1 features a crossplane crankshaft design with an uneven firing order to provide outstanding yet easy to control torque and an exceptionally linear throttle feel never experience before. But there is far more to the 2011 Yamaha R1 than just a revolutionary engine.

The 2011 R1 ... Yamaha's technical "Tour de Force."

The R1 has been designed to be the "Ultimate Cornering Master" of the open super sport class and one of the keys to incredible handling lies partly in the chassis but equally as important, in its ability to put useable power to the ground. This revolutionary cross-plane crank R1 delivers as much power as the rider wants, exactly when the rider wants it ... by a simple twist of the right wrist; leaving the rider feeling like they are directly connected to the rear wheel of the revolutionary R1.

The Bark is bad. The bite is badder.

Forget everything you ever knew about the supersport litre class. The all new 2011 Yamaha YZF-R1 is unlike anything before. That's because it's the world's first production motorcycle with a crossplane crankshaft. The result? Incredibly smooth power delivery and outrageous torque for a rush like you've never experienced.

2011 BMW G 650GSBMW G 650 GS - the success story of the BMW Motorrad single-cylinder engine continues.

With the new BMW G 650 GS, BMW Motorrad has added yet another attractive member to its BMW GS family. With its lean, wiry offroad stature, the new single-cylinder enduro cuts a cheeky, light, and adventurous figure. At the same time it stands out clearly from its rivals in terms of quality, equipment, and comfort. In conjunction with its relatively low weight and the low seat height, it presents an attractive means of entry to the passion of motorbiking and the fascinating world of BMW GS adventure.

New edition based on a tried and tested platform with high torque and low consumption single-cylinder engine.
The new G 650 GS has opted for a technology on a widely used basis: the popular and successful BMW F 650 GS with single-cylinder drive of many years' standing. This liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine with double overhead camshafts has a displacement of 652 cc, delivers 35 kW (48 hp) at 6500 rpm, and develops a maximum torque of 60 Nm at 5000 rpm. As an optional accessory, the vehicle is also available in a power reduction version, delivering 25 kW (34 hp) at 6500 rpm and 47 Nm at 4500 rpm.
