For
many riders, the Suzuki Hayabusa represents the epitome of sport
motorcycles. And there is no wonder why, as it offers a pretty
impressive package that includes a super strong engine, top notch
suspensions and a comprehensive list of high end technologies that are
all working together for a single purpose: mindblowing speeds.
To
spice things up even more, Suzuki unveiled a limited edition of its epic
motorcycle at the inaugural American International Motorcycle Expo in
Orlando, Florida. The new GSX1300R Hayabusa 50th Anniversary Edition was
created to celebrate Suzuki’s five decades in the U.S. market.
The
special edition can be easily recognized after its Candy Daring
Red/Glass Sparkle Black paint job and the red-striped black wheels.
The
GSX1300R Hayabusa 50th Anniversary Edition is propelled by a 1340cc
in-line 4-cylinder fuel injected, DOHC liquid-cooled engine with
16-valves and Twin Swirl Combustion Chambers (TSCC) that cranks out a
maximum power of 173 horsepower and 104 pound-feet of peak torque. This
power is more than enough to propel you to 60 mph in only 2.5 seconds.
The maximum speed is rated at 186 mph.
Overview
The
Suzuki Hayabusa 50th Anniversary Limited Edition, quite simply, isn’t
for everyone. With performance credentials that have established it as
the most exciting sportbike on the planet, it’s designed for serious
sport riders who will settle for nothing less than the best. If that’s
you, and if you choose to ride the Hayabusa, you’ll be rewarded with a
riding experience you’ll never forget. Its combination of unsurpassed
power, crisp handling and superb aerodynamics creates the ultimate sport
bike.
2014 Suzuki Hayabusa 50th Anniversary Edition Key Features:
•
Lighter and more rigid than conventional bolt-together calipers, the
Hayabusa’s top-of-the-line radial-mount Brembo Monobloc front brake
calipers deliver better feedback to the rider. Piston diameter was
enlarged from 32-30mm to 32-32mm. Larger pistons help apply greater
force to the brake disc, which results in increased initial bite and a
more controlled feeling
• The standard equipment Antilock Brake
System (ABS) unit features a lightweight, compact design. The ABS
enhances brake performance by helping prevent, to a certain extent,
wheel locking due to changes in road conditions or excessive braking, by
matching stopping power to available traction.
2014 Suzuki Hayabusa 50th Anniversary Edition Features and Benefits:
Engine:
•
A 1340cc in-line 4-cylinder fuel injected, DOHC liquid-cooled engine
with 16-valves and Twin Swirl Combustion Chambers (TSCC) provides
phenomenal power and broad torque delivering breath taking acceleration.
•
Lightweight aluminum alloy pistons with a compression ratio of 12.5:1
are used for maximum performance in all connditions. Hard, smooth
chrome-nitride Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) coating on the upper
compression and oil control rings on each piston reduces friction while
improving cylinder sealing.
• Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM) cylinder plating improves heat transfer, durability and ring seal.
•
Lightweight titanium valves allow the use of light valve springs and
high lift while maintaining accurate valve control. Iridium spark plugs
are used for high combustion efficiency.
• Curved radiator with a
compact, dense-core design and engine-management-computer-controlled two
ring-type electric fans mounted on the rear of the radiator, increasing
the control accuracy and keeping engine temperature stable.
• The
Hayabusa’s engine is fed by tapered, 44mm double barrel Suzuki’s SDTV
(Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve) throttle bodies utilizing dual 12-hole,
fine-spray injectors per cylinder and ram air intake with large volume
airbox. This precise, carefully controlled system improves combustion
efficiency results in improved power delivery and a more linear
response.
• Idle Speed Control (ISC) system improves cold starting and helps maintain stable engine idle under various conditions.
• Suzuki Pulsed-secondary AIR-injection (PAIR) system ignites unburned hydrocarbons and reduces carbon monoxide emissions.
•
S-DMS (Suzuki Drive Mode Selector) allows the rider to choose from
three different engine settings depending on riding conditions or rider
preferences.
Transmission Features:
• An optimized 6-speed
transmission features oil spray to the 4th, 5th, and 6th gears to
reduce wear and mechanical noise during highway cruising.
• Suzuki
Clutch Assist System (SCAS) serves as back-torque-limiting system for
smooth downshifts and also contributes to a light clutch pull.
Chassis Features:
• A lightweight and rigid twin-spar aluminum frame minimizes weight while maintaining high torsional strength.
•
KYB inverted cartridge forks feature a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC)
coating surface treatment on the 43mm stanchion tubes to reduce friction
and increase reaction to small surface irregularities. Spring preload,
compression damping and rebound damping are fully adjustable.
• A
bridged aluminum alloy swingarm features a cross-sectional shape for
increased rigidity, which also helps cope with improved rear tire grip
and increased engine output. The Hayabusa’s fully adjustable rear shock
absorber has a 43mm piston and 14mm rod diameter.
• Large 310mm
(12.2 inch) dual-floating-disc front brakes with efficient, race-proven
aluminum-piston, radial-mount Brembo calipers, and 260mm (10.2 inch)
single-disc rear brake with single-piston brake caliper work together
with a new ABS system offering superior braking performance
Additional Features:
•
The Hayabusa’s instrument cluster features four analog meters for
speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge and water temperature with an S-DMS
mode indicator, gear position indicator and adjustable engine-rpm
indicator.
• Vertically stacked twin headlights provide increased
light intensity, improved light distribution and match the elegant flow
of the Hayabusa styling.
• Advanced aerodynamics offering superb wind protection both for normal and completely tucked-in seating positions.
• The tire’s profile and compound were developed through a variety of testing to achieve a high level of stability and handling.

2011 BRD RedShift Electric Motocross Prototype
2011 BRD RedShift Electric Motocross Prototype
Just
like their four-wheeled counterparts, electric bikes are slowly
entering the market, giving riders a far more ’efficient’ alternative
than the gas-guzzling road mongers they’ve come to know over the years.
With the direction steering clearly towards an electric future, BRD is looking to get its foot in the door first with the new RedShift electric motocross prototype. Built using a two-piece monocoque chassis partly painted in a blue finish and contrasted by an orange battery pack, the pre-production RedShift is looking at becoming a trailblazer in its own right.

2006 Fischer MRX 650
2006 Fischer MRX 650 
The
Fischer MRX may be gorgeous, but it’s no high-maintenance Prima Donna.
The MRX was designed from the very beginning to be a rider’s motorcycle,
one that can log hard miles because it’s comfortable, easy to ride, and
solidly put together.
When
you walk up to the MRX, you’ll be awed by the beautiful lines. Climbing
aboard you’ll appreciate the comfortable seat and riding position, and
the high-tech rider communications pod, with the large, backlit
tachometer, the cool light tracers that follow the tach needle, the
digital speedometer, multiple temperature gages for coolant and oil, and
the fuel level gage. Built in lap, zero to 60, zero to 100, and 1/4
mile timers make this a fun track bike, too.
The first Fischer MRX American Sportbike arrives to customer
The first Fischer MRX American Sportbike arrives to customer
Fischer, the American sportbike manufacturer, has started to deliver their MRX model, one that is powered by SV650 ’s
V-twin engine. Featuring an aluminum chassis as well as top notch
components such as USD forks and an Öhlins shock, the bike has a dry
weight of only 367 lbs.
This unique combination is just right for the new owner of MRX #1, John from Minneapolis: "The engineering is great, the seat is very comfortable, the exhaust sounds really good, and the MRX turns heads wherever I go,"
Sounds like a success and a very good deal to me, as the MSRP starts at $7,995!
