      Ducati Reveals Most Powerful Single-Cylinder Engine – 83.4 bhp

      by

      New Ducati Single Cylinder EngineDucati’s new single-cylinder engine can be used for multiple new bikes, one of which will be a motard-style machineAlso known as the ‘thumpers’, single-cylinder engines are popular for their affordability and low maintenance. These are the most widely used engines for entry-level motorcycles and are available in both two-stroke and four-stroke formats. However, single-cylinder engines have their limitations. As if to push this architecture to its limits, Ducati has come up with the world’s most powerful and highest revving single-cylinder engine.Ducati Superquadro Mono – The complete storyIt’s been almost three decades since Ducati last produced a single-cylinder bike. It was in 1993 that Supermono 550 race bikes were in production. These too had quite a reputation, generating 75 hp at 10,000 rpm. The bikes used borrowed hardware such as the horizontal cylinder and desmodromics from an 888 Racing V-twin.[embedded content]Now, thirty years later, Ducati has come up with an even better version of the Supermono. There’s a human connection as well, with Ducati CEO Claudio Domenicali actively involved in both projects. Thirty years earlier, Domenicali was the project leader of the Supermono project. Now working as the CEO, he has played a key role in ensuring the success of the world’s most powerful single-cylinder engine.Ducati Superquadro Mono – tech specsDucati’s new 659cc, single-cylinder engine is being claimed as the world’s most powerful and highest revving road-going unit ever produced. It borrows the 116 mm piston from the 1285c V-twin ‘Superquadro’, which has been used on the 1299 Panigale. The stroke is 62.4 mm, which is only 1.6 mm longer in comparison to that of the superbike. Due to this, the engine has huge oversquare dimensions and high revs. It also explains why the engine has been named the Superquadro. It essentially means the super square.New Ducati Single Cylinder EngineAt max RPM, the piston of Superquadro can move 21 meters per second. The engine borrows various other components from the 1299 Panigale. It includes the combustion chamber, valves and desmo timing control. However, around 80% of the Superquadro engine is entirely new. In standard configuration, the engine generates 76.4 bhp. This can be increased to 83.4 bhp in track-ready configuration. With a desmodromic top end, the top rev range is an impressive 10,250 rpm.New Ducati Single Cylinder EngineChallenges for the Superquadro projectWhile it was easy to imagine the Superquadro, developing the engine was not an easy task. To make it practical, it was necessary to keep the engine as compact and lightweight as possible. And without compromising on the targeted performance figures. Every gram of metal had to be wisely used to ensure a lightweight profile and achieve higher power-to-weight ratio.To make it possible, a number of tweaks and innovations have been implemented. For example, the cam profile has been completely redesigned. A smaller throttle body diameter has been used for the intake duct and the length has also been changed. Design and length of the exhaust pipe were also tweaked accordingly. All these changes helped achieve a robust torque curve. More

      Hero Xpulse 440 Resumes Testing – KTM 390 ADV Rival, Harley X440 Engine?

      by

      Hero is on the verge of launching an affordable alternative to upcoming Himalayan 450 and 390 Adventure with Xpulse 440Hero MotoCorp and Harley-Davidson joint venture has resulted in a brand new platform that both the brands will deploy with their branding. First vehicle to debut with the newly-developed 440 platform was Harley-Davidson X440. What next? Nightster 440 under Harley-Davidson or Hero’s flagship Xpulse 440? Looks like the probability is stronger with the latter.Hero Xpulse 440 Resumes TestingIndia’s largest 2W manufacturer seems to be on the verge of revamping its premium portfolio. We are seeing test mules of new Xpulse 210 that have similar body and hardware as standard Xpulse 200 but pack Karizma XMR’s new 210cc liquid-cooled engine. Alongside it, Hero’s upcoming Xtreme 210cc street naked was seen testing too.New test mules show a larger Xpulse motorcycle that made its first appearance last year at Khardung La. After that, this vehicle was never spotted testing again, until recently. This time, they’ve been spotted testing in a more urban environment. Particularly, somewhere in Jaipur city. Alongside this new test mule, we can see a KTM 390 Adventure as well, probably for benchmarking.Overall proportions are much larger than current Xpulse 200 4V and match with the test mules spotted last year. When launched, it will take on bigger single-cylinder ADVs like upcoming Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 and KTM 390 Adventure. As of now, there are no real leads to suggest which engine this new Xpulse is packing.Xpulse 440 spotted testing last year at Khardung LaThere are two possibilities – a brand-new 400cc liquid-cooled engine, or the same 440cc oil-cooled engine that debuted with Harley-Davidson. We would wager on the latter as it will prove cost-effective and allow them to undercut rivals by some margin. It will be sold via Hero’s Premia dealerships.Upcoming Hero XPulse 440?As for finer details on componentry, there are wire-spoke wheels, dual-purpose tyres (probably tube-type), an up-swept exhaust that looks a lot chunkier than the one on Xpulse 200 4V, some sort of trellis frame, USD telescopic front forks and rear mono-shock suspension with longer travel.On the recent test mules, rear swingarm looks like it is milled from a single piece of metal, and not a generic box-section unit. There are LED turn indicators and previous test mules showed a squarish fully-digital instrument cluster that may be shared with Karizma XMR.Xpulse 440 spotted testing last year at Khardung LaWhen Hero launched XPulse 200, it primarily rivaled Royal Enfield Himalayan in off-road conditions. Now that Royal Enfield is readying the Himalayan 450, Hero has begun to hone the blades that will clash sometime in 2024 or beyond.XPulse 440 is likely to be lighter in weight and also affordable when compared to upcoming Himalayan 450 and 390 Adventure. If Hero priced it around Rs. 2.5 lakh (ex-sh), it would be an absolute phenom. It would slot above upcoming Xpulse 210 with Karizma XMR engine in Hero’s ADV portfolio.Source More

      Honda 2W Sales Sep 2023 – Activa, Shine, CB350, Dio, Unicorn, Hornet

      by

      Honda ActivaHonda Activa and Shine range of scooters and motorcycles accounts for over 80% of the total domestic sales in Sep 2023Despite facing challenges like the global supply chain disruptions and the ongoing pandemic, Honda continues to be a significant player in India’s two-wheeler industry. In September 2023, Honda’s domestic sales reached a total of 4,91,802 units, representing a marginal growth of 0.58% compared to the same period last year when they sold 4,88,950 units.Honda 2W Sales Sep 2023 – Activa TopsWhile the growth may appear modest, it is worth noting that the company has managed to maintain stable sales in a challenging environment. Honda Activa retained its top position as the highest-selling model with 2,35,056 units sold, accounting for 47.79% of the total domestic sales. However, the Activa witnessed a 4.30% decrease in sales compared to September 2022.Honda 2W Sales Sep 2023CB Shine, a favourite among commuter motorcycle enthusiasts, faced a YoY decline of 6.79%. With 1,35,339 units sold in September 2023, it continued to be a significant contributor to Honda’s domestic sales. This dip in sales may be attributed to changing consumer preferences and increased competition in the commuter motorcycle segment.One of the standout performers for Honda in the domestic market was the Dio. This sporty scooter experienced an impressive YoY growth of 29.04%, selling 38,703 units in September 2023. The boost in sales YoY is thanks to the recent addition of the Dio 125cc model to the range.Honda 2W Exports Sep 2023The introduction of the Shine 100 model marked a new addition to Honda’s lineup, and it made a significant impact by selling 26,205 units in its debut month. This demonstrates that Honda’s strategy of diversifying its product range is paying off, as the Shine 100 found a place in the preferences of Indian consumers. On the other hand, the Unicorn faced a steep decline of 29.44% in YoY sales, with 25,514 units sold in September 2023. This suggests that Honda may need to revisit its marketing and product strategies for this particular model to stay competitive in the market.Dream, SP160, Livo, and Hness CB350 have faced varying degrees of decline in sales compared to the previous year. The Dream and Hness CB350, in particular, saw sales decreases of 14.71% and 23.19%, respectively. These results highlight the need for Honda to address evolving consumer demands and preferences in these segments. Hornet 2.0 emerged as the standout performer with a staggering YoY growth of 458.26%, selling 3,852 units. This surge in popularity could be attributed to its sporty design and advanced features, making it a preferred choice for enthusiasts.Honda 2W India – Exports PerformanceHonda’s exports performance also demonstrated positive growth in September 2023. The company exported a total of 34,014 units, marking a 14.78% increase compared to September 2022 when they exported 29,635 units. Navi scooter led the way in exports with 10,337 units, reflecting a 46.04% growth from the previous year.Dio also showed significant growth in the export market with a YoY increase of 210.08%. While the Activa and Dream models contributed to export numbers, the CB Shine experienced a decline in export sales, down 60.93% from the previous year. More

      New Honda Electric Scooter Concept Debuts – Can Work For India

      by

      New Honda Electric Scooter Concept. Images – Paul TanAs part of its EV strategy, Honda has plans to introduce a minimum of 10 electric two-wheelers globally by 2025At the ongoing Japan Mobility Show, Honda is showcasing a wide range of products and advanced technologies. A significant percentage of these relate to the world of EVs. The latest unveil is an electric scooter prototype that Honda is calling SC e: Concept.Honda SC e: electric scooter conceptBased on its design, it is apparent that Honda SC e: electric scooter concept is meant for urban commutes. It comes across as a simple everyday use machine and does not have any radical design features. The overall profile is in line with the conventional theme used for scooters. However, there are some unique features such as the full-width LED DRLs.New Honda Electric Scooter ConceptHonda SC e: electric scooter concept gets contrasting blue highlights that enhance its visual appeal. The blue elements can be seen on the front lighting panel, handlebar, floorboard and rear tail section. They indicate the vehicle’s electric character and complement the ivory-white shade used for the scooter. Apart from these aspects, there isn’t anything extraordinary about Honda’s latest electric scooter concept.Ergonomics are pretty relaxed and comfortable. The single piece seat is long and wide, and comes with adequate foam thickness. It should be able to ensure optimal comfort for both rider and pillion. As the battery packs are installed under the seat, the flat floorboard area is accessible to be used for carrying a wide variety of stuff.New Honda Electric Scooter ConceptHowever, with the under-seat battery packs, storage space will be pretty sparse. Probably, just enough to accommodate a helmet or other small stuff. The prototype does not appear to have any storage space at front. However, that could change when the scooter reaches production stage. Front storage is a basic feature available with most commuter-focused scooters.New Honda Electric Scooter ConceptIn terms of tech integrations, Honda SC e: electric scooter concept is expected to get Bluetooth-based connectivity features. A rectangular space can be seen for a digital instrument cluster, although the prototype does not have it installed at the moment. The instrument console will have modest proportions, and won’t be as big as screens used with scooters like Ola S1 Pro, Ather 450X, etc.Honda SC e: electric scooter performanceHonda SC e: electric scooter concept has two swappable batteries. Honda refers to these as Mobile Power Pack. The company has stated that the scooter will have good speed and range. However, the exact numbers have not been revealed. The scooter has the motor mounted on the rear wheel. This is different from other commuter scooters that have hub-mounted motor. Hardware specs include telescopic forks at front and a single shock absorber at rear. Braking duties are performed by disc-drum combo.New Honda Electric Scooter ConceptHonda hasn’t revealed any details about the scooter’s powertrain. However, Honda has stated that the scooter’s performance will be in line with the tenets of clean electric mobility. The scooter will have zero CO2 emissions. It has been designed to provide quiet and comfortable rides to users. The scooter will be part of Honda’s roadmap to become carbon neutral by 2050.Source More
