Buell 1125 R

Buell 1125R

The Buell 1125R motorcycle is vastly improved in the last six months(launch in late 2007) but, make no mistake, it’s not Japanese or Italian standard in any one area of the bike. The engine is a 146 HP Helicon™ liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, 72° V-Twin that delivers solid punches. But vibration can be an issue, depending on what uprated ECU setting is installed – development is still ongoing. As a road bike it would be best to describe the 1125R as a powerful ride that’s not make you feel good but also looks good.

BOND STOCK BIKES

Spending a day at the Cycle World International Motorcycle Show will probably remind you of what you love about bikes, and what you don't love, too. I won't use this as a platform to dissect my personal two-wheeled tastes, but in addition to the myriad manufacturers displaying their brand new, bone stock bikes, there are also plenty of one-off creations on display, including this custom 2008 Suzuki Hayabusa. A co-venture with urban clothing company L-R-G, the trick 'Busa is an exercise in clean styling, and features clear wheels that highlight the minimalistic tubular swingarm

WINTER BIKE

Winter in the northern hemisphere doesn't officially begin until December 22, but for many of us it's already too cold to ride.
I'm still riding here in sunny southern California, but if you're not among those lucky enough to enjoy year-round motorcycling you'll want to take proper care of your bike until spring rolls around: that means proper motorcycle winter storage, which we've encapsulated in our step-by-step motorcycle winter storage tips.
Depending on how long your bike will be in storage, you'll want to read up on various ways to avoid letting moisture and inactivity take its toll on your two-wheeled transportation. And if you're still riding, check out our motorcycle oil change, tire maintenance, and chain maintenance step-by-step articles.

SUBRA BULID BIKES

Car blogs are buzzing with a rumor that has been circulating the bike world for some time: that Subaru might enter the motorcycle market.
Rumors surrounding the supposed Subie (whose alleged spy photo is seen here) include mention of a 499cc DOHC single that produces 50 horsepower, manufactured by Subaru's parent company, Fuji Heavy Industries. The powerplant has already been seen in Polaris quads, and the hypothetical sportbike-- dubbed the HS500-- wears a Chinese-built, cast aluminum frame, and a beefy swingarm.
Though not as hardcore as Subaru's rally-bred WRX STi, the motorcycle, if it sees the light of day, could offer an economical alternative in the middleweight arena.
Do you think Subaru should bother building a bike, or are you content with their four-wheeled offerings? Share your thoughts by commenting.

SUPWE HEAVY WEIGHT

Well, there is a reason I did not go out of my way and call it the fastest two wheeler on turf and that is quite simple because it ain’t one. The Tomahawk is still a bike but it seems to have four wheels under it. To carry this super heavy weight among the bikes that is pretty much a requirement. But that does not take away an iota of style or sheer intimidating appearance that the Tomahawk carries. This is pretty much the “Iron Mike’ among the bikes and is designed to deliver that early second round knock out. That does not mean that there is nothing pretty about this machine.

HYPER SPORT SUZUKI

The Suzuki Hayabusa (also known as the GSX1300R in some countries) is a hyper sport motorcycle originally introduced by Suzuki in 1999. It has a 1298 cc (79.2 cu in) inline-4 engine and was consistently tested as the fastest production motorcycle in the world.The 2008 model has a MSRP of US$11,999
