      BSA Electric Launch Likely Before Royal Enfield Classic Motorcycle

      by

      BSA electric motorcycle is currently under development in the UK, and will rival upcoming electric bike from Royal EnfieldImage for reference. Credit – Neev MotorcyclesMahindra-owned Classic Legends revived the BSA brand of motorcycles by unveiling its first model in the form of Gold Star 650 late last year. The iconic British brand will go on sale in the United Kingdom initially followed by other international markets including India. Market launch for Gold Star 650 is expected to take place in the coming few weeks.While Classic Legends is currently focussing on its petrol-powered Gold Star 650, a part of its resources will also be invested in developing an electric motorcycle. This development has been confirmed by Rajesh Jejurikar, Executive Director, Auto and Farm Sectors, Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M).BSA Electric Motorcycle in the makingJejurikar further stated that M&M and Classic Legends will make use of BSA’s global popularity to venture into the electric mobility space. Reports of Classic Legends developing an electric motorcycle have been doing the rounds on the internet for a very long time. Initially, it was believed that the Indian bikemaker will launch its first electric bike under the Jawa brand but BSA seems to be a perfect choice.To jog back memories, BSA was awarded a grant worth GBP 4.6 million by the UK government as part of a low carbon automotive initiative across the nation. The company has already established a new research & development (R&D) centre in Coventry with a team of 12-15 members working for BSA.New BSA Gold StarNew Manufacturing facilities for EVs in BritainFurther, the UK Government has commissioned a facility specifically for manufacturing EVs that will be set up in the Midlands. Technical specifications of the electric bike are a complete mystery as of now and more details regarding this upcoming motorcycle are expected to come to light in coming months.That said, we expect the bike to flaunt plenty of classic retro styling elements in line with the upcoming Gold Star 650. If and when launched, it could lock horns with the upcoming electric motorcycle from Royal Enfield. However, there are no confirmations regarding specs and launch of either of these battery-powered bikes.Engine, Hardware SpecsComing back to BSA Goldstar 650, the modern classic motorcycle is powered by a 652cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled motor that dishes out 45hp and 55Nm of peak torque. This unit is paired with a 5-speed gearbox via a slipper and assist clutch. As for performance, Classic Legends say that this bike can reach a top speed of 166 kmph.The company has also stated that this engine could be tuned for more power and torque in future. Suspension duties will be handled by 41mm telescopic forks in front and twin shock absorbers in rear. Braking will be carried out by single disc brakes at both ends with Brembo callipers aided by dual-channel ABS from Continental. More

      2022 Honda Airblade 160cc Maxi Scooter New Gen Debuts

      by

      Honda Airblade 160 is based on the same platform as Vario 160 and gets the same powertrain setup2022 Honda Airblade 160ccScooters in India are primarily seen as commuter machines rather than high-performance vehicles until now. With the launch of Yamaha Aerox 155 last year, the Indian market has started to come to terms with scooters being an efficient means of extracting performance.In other Asian markets, performance scooters already cater to a sizeable share of their respective markets. Honda has launched the sixth generation model of Airblade in Vietnam. The new gen Airblade 160 gets plenty of updates over its predecessor, the most prominent of those is a new heart borrowed from Honda Vario 160.Powering the sixth-gen Airblade 160 is a 160cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that replaces the older 150cc unit from its previous iteration. This 160cc mill kicks out 15 bhp and 14.2 Nm of peak torque. These figures are 0.2 bhp and 0.3 Nm more than what Yamaha Aerox 155 derives from its motor. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a belt-driven CVT automatic transmission.2022 Honda Airblade 160 DesignAs far as design goes, Honda has made subtle tweaks to its styling. This includes an updated headlight cluster and revised body panels with elegant lines running through them. Overall design is similar to its previous iteration with a thick front apron and side fairing. In sync with contemporary maxi-style scooters, Airblade gets a spine running through the floorboard.2022 Honda Airblade 160ccIt receives a single-piece seat with a slightly raised tail section. Components like alloy wheels, upswept exhaust muffler, footboard and suspension setup have been painted black which enhances the sporty appeal of the Maxi scooter. Ergonomics is well suited for a comfortable riding posture. More importantly, Airblade is now underpinned by a new and lighter chassis.Features & PriceIn terms of features, Airblade 160 is equipped with all-LED lighting, a fully digital instrument cluster and a smart key along with an underseat storage capacity of 23.2 litres. The underseat storage also gets a boot light as well as a USB charger. Hardware equipment consists of a suspension setup that comprises telescopic forks up front and twin shock absorbers at rear.Braking duties are handled by a disc brake in front and a drum brake at rear which are accompanied by a single-channel ABS. In Vietnam, Honda Airblade 160 has been priced at VND 55,990,000 (approx. INR 1.87 lakh). It will lock horns with Yamaha Aerox 155. Airblade 160 will most probably not reach Indian shores anytime in the near future.However, Honda has filed patents for as many as three scooters in India which could cater to its performance segment. The most prominent of those is the X-ADV scooter which is most likely to be based on the same 160cc platform as Airblade. More

      2022 Yamaha MT15 Review – The Perfect Update?

      by

      Yamaha has already registered a record sales volume of nearly 10,000 for the new MT15 in April 20222022 Yamaha MT15 ReviewYamaha launched the updated version of MT15 more than a month ago. The naked streetfighter has always lived under the shadows of its fully-faired sibling which holds high regard among the Indian motorcycling community. Based on the fourth-gen R15 that was launched in September last year, the new 2022 Yamaha MT-15 comes with a series of updates over its predecessor. So is the latest iteration of MT-15 able to establish its own identity this time? Let’s find out.2022 Yamaha MT15 Review – Design, QualityOn the styling aspect, there isn’t any significant change in the new MT15 in comparison to its outgoing version. However, subtle updates like addition of gold anodised front forks have enhanced the bike’s visual appeal. It also gets an interesting palette of colour options including Racing Blue, Metallic Black and new additions like Ice Fluo-Vermillion and Cyan Blue.Our test bike was wrapped in the Cyan Blue paint scheme which we personally felt was eye-grabbing and suited well with the bike’s personality. The colour-coded alloy wheels further accentuate the sporty contrast of the motorcycle. Visual updates on the street naked motorcycle end here. It gets the same front face with single pod LED projector headlamp and twin eyebrow-shaped LED DRLs.Although the design remains largely intact, Yamaha has certainly made some improvements in quality and fit and finish when compared to the older model. Although not very premium, quality of switchgear is acceptable and the instrument console is clearly legible even under sunlight. More importantly, there are no panel gaps and the quality of plastics and rubber used in the bike is better.2022 Yamaha MT15 ReviewErgonomics & ComfortAs far as ergonomics go, the new MT-15 gets slightly rear-set footpegs that enable a committed riding posture. If the older and new models are kept side by side, one would notice that the updated MT-15 gets a slightly lower stance due to repositioning of the handlebar that has been set lower. This results in a slightly more aggressive riding position but is still fairly comfortable for city commutes.The rider’s seat is broad and comfortable, however, that is not the case for the pillion where real estate is limited and even a few minutes more than half an hour could be painful. If you are looking to carry a pillion regularly for your commutes we suggest you look somewhere else.FeaturesYamaha has made some small updates to its equipment. For instance, the instrument cluster is now compatible with Bluetooth connectivity and the Y-Connect mobile app that offers features like call, message, email alerts on the console. That said, we would have liked Yamaha to offer the more advanced X-Connect mobile app that comes with turn-by-turn navigation. It also benefits from a side stand engine inhibitor switch.2022 Yamaha MT15 ReviewRide & HandlingThe new MT-15 is underpinned by the same delta box frame as its predecessor but gets linked with a new aluminium swingarm instead of a box-section unit. More importantly, it gets new 37mm upside-down front forks which brings some noticeable change in its dynamics. While the MT-15 was always a good handler, its latest version is a lot sharper and handles more precisely, thus offering more confidence to new riders.At 139 kilos, the naked streetfighter is extremely nimble and easy to flick around corners and maneuver through tight spaces in bumper to bumper traffic. In addition, a wide and low handlebar offers a good purchase for lock-to-lock turns and quick direction changes. Thanks to the new aluminium swingarm, rear end of new MT-15 feels a lot more stable and offers more confidence while leaning into corners2022 Yamaha MT15 ReviewThe outer tube has been bolted to the chassis for rigidity and balance. A flip side to this is that the entire suspension setup now feels a lot firmer which is great in terms of handling but loses out on a plush ride. Each and every undulation on the surface including bumps and potholes is felt quite sharply when seated on top. A softer setup considering Indian roads might have been more welcome.Engine & PerformancePowering the latest iteration of MT-15 is the same 155cc liquid-cooled, four-valve engine with Variable Valve Actuation (VVA0 technology. However, this time it has been tuned slightly differently for friendlier city usage and as a result output is down by 0.1 bhp and peak torque has been bumped up by 0.2 Nm. The motor now cranks out 18.14 bhp at 10,000rpm and 14.1 Nm at 7,500rpm.2022 Yamaha MT15 ReviewThe most prominent update in this motor is how tractable it has become at city speeds. One can easily crawl at speeds of 20-25 kmph in the fourth gear without the fear of engine stalling. This also helps in extracting better fuel efficiency. Even in higher gears there is enough torque to play with and no matter which gear you’re in, you just need to open the throttle hard to extract all the juice.The best highlight about this VVA motor is not its top-end performance but how easily it builds up speed from the bottom end. That said, Yamaha has kept the high-revving nature of this engine intact and you instantly feel the boost kick in thanks to VVA after 7,000rpm till a red line of 10,000rpm. However, significant vibrations are felt in the handlebar and footpegs once you go past 5,500rpm.2022 Yamaha MT15 ReviewAlso, the engine starts sounding very coarse when taken close to the rev limiter. While we didn’t get a chance to test its performance figures, the motorcycle does feel strained at around 100-110 kmph. A smooth and quick-shifting gearbox complemented by a swift clutch action with slip and assist makes it a very likeable city bike. However, an optional quick-shifter might have resulted in a more engaging experience.One disappointing aspect is its braking which needed more bite, especially for the rear wheel. Also, for a bike that would easily cost about Rs 1.80 lakh (on-road), it misses out on dual-channel ABS which we are unable to wrap our heads around.2022 Yamaha MT15 ReviewVerdictPriced at Rs 1.60 lakh (ex-showroom), the new 2022 MT-15 is around Rs 10,000 to Rs 12,000 dearer than its predecessor. For the additional premium, one gets significant updates but also misses out on a few crucial ones. It certainly feels more engaging to ride, thanks to its updated hardware and is also easy to handle for any amateur rider.However, lack of a dual-channel ABS and an optional quick-shifter hurt its value for money proposition. Given the updates R15 V4 has received, we feel Yamaha has missed a crucial opportunity by being a little too conservative in its approach towards MT15 V2. Should you consider it? Surely, especially people who are looking for a fun-to-ride, compact and fast motorcycle primarily for city commutes will love what the new MT-15 has on offer. More

      by

      Hunter test mules come across as more agile and compact, as compared to other 350cc Royal Enfield motorcyclesRoyal Enfield Hunter 350cc RenderWhile road presence continues to be a key focus area for Royal Enfield motorcycles, the company is working to provide sportier options to customers. A relevant example is 650 twins that pack in double the power and yet are dimensionally similar to 350cc bikes like Classic 350. Another example is the recently launched Scram 411, a road-biased version of the horsey Himalayan. Working on the same lines, Royal Enfield will soon launch Hunter 350.Royal Enfield 350cc range currently has Classic 350, Meteor and Bullet. These are bestsellers in 350cc segment, preferred for their retro styling and strong street presence. Collectively, these bikes command a market share of more than 90% in 350cc segment. However, this space appears to be evolving rapidly, as seen with bikes like Honda CB350 RS and Yezdi Scrambler. Royal Enfield’s answer to these rivals will be Hunter 350.New Royal Enfield Hunter 350cc LaunchAs the name suggests, Hunter 350 has been designed to dominate city streets. As compared to other 350cc bikes, Hunter largely has a retro naked roadster profile with a dash of scrambler flavour. Some of the key features include round headlamp, rounded fuel tank, circular rear view mirrors, single piece seat, compact exhaust and short tail section.Riding ergonomics are quite comfortable with a wide handlebar and scooped-up seat. Footpegs appear to be slightly rear set, which can come handy for a more committed stance. With the rider alone, Hunter can also work for highway cruising and some mild-off-roading fun. Launch is planned for end June 2022, reveals new report.Royal Enfield Hunter 350cc RenderTest mules have been spotted with both wire-spoke wheels as well as alloy wheels. Users will be able to choose based on their specific needs and preferences. Grab rail options could also vary based on the variant, as test mules have been spotted with single grab rail as well as split grab rails. As compared to other 350cc bikes, Hunter has rectangular rear turn indicators.Hunter 350 engine and specsPowering Hunter 350 will be the new-gen engine and platform that were introduced with Meteor 350. It was later introduced with the new-gen Classic 350 as well. New-gen Bullet 350 is also waiting to get this update. The new 350cc engine churns out 20.2 bhp of max power and 27 Nm of peak torque. It is mated to a 5-speed gearbox. Hunter can be expected to be lighter, which will improve its power to weight ratio.Suspension system will be standard, just like other new-gen 350cc RE bikes. There will be conventional telescopic forks at front and dual rear shock absorbers. The bike will have disc brakes at both ends, integrated with dual-channel ABS as standard.In terms of pricing, Hunter is likely to be more affordable than Classic 350. As this is a new product, Royal Enfield will try to quote the most competitive price for the bike. Rough estimates indicate a starting price of around Rs 1.70 lakh.Source More

      Ola Maps In The Making – For S1 Pro, Upcoming Electric Car

      by

      Currently, Ola uses mapping services by MapmyIndia for GPS, navigation and maps on the S1 Pro on the Move OS 2.0 firmwareImage – MasterMind TechOla has been in the news time and time again for various controversies. Amidst all controversies, the company has catapulted itself from struggling to get its products delivered, to becoming the largest electric scooter manufacturer in India by sales and volumes. Recently, the S1 Pro crossed the 200 km mark on a single charge.Ola has established itself as a major electric scooter manufacturer in India. Now, the company is working on improving its products and delivering all the features that were promised at launch with the Move OS 2.0 update.Ola Mapping ServicesEvery company that has an online presence, uses mapping services to position itself on the internet. But for automotive companies like Ola, mapping services are a lot more complicated than that. Ola has to integrate maps, GPS, features and custom attribute data in their applications.As of now, the company is using MapmyIndia as their current custom mapping service provider. Through MapmyIndia, they can host features like integrating charging stations, charging station operating status, service station status and experience places.Ola Electric ScooterMapping services take geological information systems (GIS) from GIS vendors to form the base map on which they add layers of mapping information, business information and other services. For the navigation system to work on the S1 Pro with Move OS 2.0, Ola has chosen MapmyIndia.The problem arises as MapmyIndia has a lot of clients other than Ola. According to industry insider Yogesh Brar, Ola is developing its own mapping services like the American company Tesla did. This way, Ola can have complete control over what exactly they want their navigation system to show. It also allows them to achieve their roadmap earlier and fulfill their vision just like they envisioned.Move OS 2.0Ola’s indigenous mapping services will not be incorporated into the upcoming Move OS 2.0 update. The update is likely to roll out to the public by the end of June. Move OS 2.0 is only expected to bring music playback, navigation, smartphone connectivity, a new Eco mode and keyless locking/unlocking via the connected phone. Cruise control feature will be added in a future update.Ola hasn’t confirmed if they’ll incorporate their in-house developed mapping services in their S1 and S1 Pro with a future update or will it debut with Ola’s next electric scooter or their upcoming electric car. For now, Ola is still using MapmyIndia as its mapping service provider. This enables the navigation systems on S1 Pro with Move OS 2.0 update.Source More
