    New Rider Electric Motorcycle With 140 Km Range – Aims To Rival 125cc Bikes

    by

    Owing to its hub-mounted motor, Rider SR6 boasts a staggering 118 Nm of torque available from zero RPMNew Rider Electric MotorcycleIn India, we get motorcycles from various companies. Most of them are either Indian or Japanese. Brands like Ducati, Aprilia, Vespa, Triumph and the likes hail from the old continent. Then there are Harley-Davidson and Indian from the land of the free and lastly, we have Benelli, Keeway, QJ and Zontes and the likes from dragon land.We don’t get French Motorcycles here. Never have. Should that be the case? Or do we need French brands like Rider to launch its fully-faired electric motorcycle range in India? Considering that 2W EV scene in India is growing by the day and more players are pooling in, should Rider make an entry?New Rider Electric MotorcycleThat is not happening anytime soon. But, let’s take a look at what we would get if it does launch in India. If launched, it would be a fitting rival to recently launched enthusiast EV Ultraviolette F77.There is a lot to like about Rider SR6. Design-wise, there are a lot of inspirations drawn from Yamaha’s YZF range. It shows especially in its front fascia. The fairing is neatly executed and features vents to cool down its batteries. Speaking of, the battery pack is mounted low on its frame, to bring its center of gravity lower.New Rider Electric MotorcycleBattery is exposed lower down, aiding in cooling, while motor is a hub unit built into its rear wheel. This motor is from renowned EV component manufacturer, QS Motor brand. It generates 5 kW of continuous power (6.7 bhp) and peaks out at 6 kW (8.04 bhp). Even though SR6’s power is in line with what a 125cc category motorcycle produces, torque is not.At 118 Nm, it has a lot of torque and that too, at 0 RPM. Torque measurement method differs with hub-mounted motors and always boasts a higher number. Regardless, top speed is pegged at 74.5 Mph (120 km/h). Power is drawn from a 72 V and 86 Ah battery. This combination works out to a capacity of a 6.192 kWh battery pack.At a steady 80 km/h speed, Rider SR6 is claimed to travel 100 km on a single charge. If driven with a light throttle at 50 km/h, Rider claims 140 km of range from a single charge. With a 220V normal household socket, charging time is 9 hours, but it does support type 2 socket for fast charging too.New Rider Electric MotorcycleSpecs & FeaturesIn terms of componentry, Rider SR6 fully-faired electric motorcycle has a lot to offer. There are clip-on handlebars with low-slung and committed riding posture. Footpegs are rear set too. At front, we have dual 300 mm brake rotors and a 240 mm disc at the rear. USD front forks take care of suspending the front, while the rear gets a mono-shock.Rear suspension gets adjustability with an external rotary dial. No need for screw drivers for this task. Front USD forks seem to be adjustable too, but can’t be said for sure. What is sure, though, is Rider SR6’s price tag. It starts from EUR 7190 (approx Rs. 6.4 lakh). At this price before taxes and import duties, it almost doesn’t make sense as Ultraviolette F77 costs between Rs. 3.8 lakh to Rs. 5.5 lakh. More

      New Aprilia 300cc Sports Bike Spied In India – RC 390, Apache 310 Rival

      by

      A single-cylinder engine displacing between 300 to 400 cc and power figures to match its rivals are expected from new Aprilia sports bikeNew Aprilia 300cc-400cc sports bike for India spied. Images – EVO IndiaThe premium end of 300cc sports bike segment is currently occupied by KTM RC 390, TVS Apache RR 310, BMW G 310 RR and Honda CBR300R. Kawasaki Ninja 300 comes close with its Rs. 3.4 lakh price tag. Keeway has spotted an opportunity here and recently launched K 300 R. However, Italians have been surprisingly absent from this segment.Sure, we had the Benelli 302 R with its massive body and dual disc brake setup at the front which looked like a proper superbike. But it was offset by its heft and after that, no Italians have ever stepped into this segment. Until now. There is a new kid on the block who is under testing to have a piece of this pie. It is a new Aprilia sports bike spotted testing in Baramati.New Aprilia Sports BikeThe new motorcycle is wrapped to the gills with camouflage and has testing equipment strapped on its back monitoring various parameters. Design language is mostly in line with what this Italian marque offers under its RS lineup. In effect, it looks like a toned-down version of an RS 660, which is not a bad thing in any way.Even though it was clad with camouflage, the front fascia does resemble that of an RS 660. It gets a twin headlight setup with a pilot lamp in the centre. These are likely to be LEDs as every other bike in this segment provides LEDs. Taillights and blinkers are likely to be LED too.New Aprilia 300cc-400cc sports bike for India spiedSeating posture looks fairly committed. There is a decent amount of lean to reach its handlebars and rider footpegs are rear-set. This gives a lot of leverage for the rider to tip the motorcycle into a corner. The front wind deflector looks to be a little lower in angle and its chunky fuel tank seems to provide enough grip for the rider.Componentry is likely to change until it reaches the series production phase. That said, this test mule offers USD forks at front and a mono-shock unit at the rear. Swingarm looks like it is an aluminium unit and not a box-section unit. Disc brakes at front are skinny, like the ones found on current gen KTM RC 390.Engine & PricingEngine specs are not yet known. It can be speculated that it would displace between 300cc to 400cc with a single-cylinder architecture and make around 35 to 40 bhp of power and 35 Nm of torque. Features like ride-by-wire, liquid cooling, slip and assist clutch, quick shifter (at least for upshifting), dual channel ABS, riding modes and a modern TFT display for instrumentation can be offered.New Aprilia 300cc-400cc sports bike for India spiedAprilia is not very popular in India where motorcycles are concerned, despite a strong presence globally. We get the RS and Tuono lineup in both middleweight and liter class segments. When Japanese offerings in middleweight and liter classes are brought into picture, Aprilia’s offerings come off as expensive.If only Aprilia had launched RS 150 and Tuono 150 in India and established a brand identity in the affordable sporty motorcycle segment, it could have been a lot easier to launch and market this upcoming motorcycle. That said, pricing can go to Rs. 3.5 lakh (ex-sh).Source More

      Royal Enfield 650 Modified At Rs 1.5 L – Yamaha FZX LED, Fairing, Alloys

      by

      Because Royal Enfields are considered blank canvases, custom jobs like Kintsugi GT 650 fully-faired Cafe Racer are more appealing than stockRoyal Enfield 650 Modified by Renovatio Motor WorksDo you want a fully-faired Cafe Racer with a proper retro appeal? Your options are pretty much nonexistent. There needs to be more Cafe Racers in the affordable category, to begin with. We only have Royal Enfield Continental GT 535 of the past and Continental GT 650 of the present. If you still want a fully-faired Cafe Racer, after-market modders like Renovatio Motor Works are your best friends.This is a New-Delhi based modding company providing aftermarket custom jobs. Their latest modification is done on Royal Enfield Continental GT 650. The stock bike has been transformed into a fully faired Cafe Racer with a lot of flash value. It looks much more eye-catching than a stock bike and is a real head-turner.Royal Enfield 650 Modified by Renovatio Motor WorksRoyal Enfield – Kintsugi GT 650The name for this beauty, Kintsugi GT 650, was based on a concept of embracing flaws and imperfections. The enthusiastic Akash Kamble of Renovatio Motor Works has put in a lot of thought and effort in creating this eye candy of a machine for a customer. Modification cost is Rs. 1.5 lakh, over the cost of a base vehicle, and it is worth every penny.For starters, there was no effort to make it bulbous and look like a thick boy. Instead, this custom fairing is made to complement the sleek body and profile of a stock donor bike. This looks cohesive and like it was meant to go on a Continental GT 650. There are scoops on this fairing for air intake and exposed engine guard. There are frame sliders on this as well.Royal Enfield 650 Fully Faired Cafe RacerThe sleek front cowl houses an aftermarket headlight from Yamaha FZ-X with LED DRLs and a projector headlight intact. Turn indicators seem to be bar end types at front, while there are minimalist LED turn indicators at the rear. Bar end mirrors would have completed the look fabulously, but custom jobs usually go with the customer’s taste.Seat has a quilted pattern cover and a custom cowl. This cowl is removable and can accommodate a pillion. Taillight is integrated into this cowl and comes straight from a Benelli bike. Front forks, engine and exhaust system are finished in gloss black, which looks very appealing.Add-Ons18” Wire-spoke wheels from stock donor bike are replaced with 17” alloy wheels. Front-wheel is wrapped with 110/70-17 Apollo H1 Alpha and 150/60-17 at the rear. Front-wheel is finished in a tasty gold shade and at the rear, the owner requested a metal disc finished in gloss black to be incorporated without a welding job on rims. Kudos to the team to pull it off neatly.Kintsugi GT 650’s fuel tank, rear cowl and fairing are finished in Icy White with dashes of Cosmic Blue with golden pin striping. There are no changes mechanically and the 648 cc parallel-twin engine is retained with 47 bhp of power and 52 Nm of torque, mated to a 6-speed gearbox. Looking at the finished product, the quoted Rs. 1.5 lakh seems to be well worth it.Source More

      Ola Electric Scooter Front Fork Issue – Official Statement

      by

      Even though Ola has been registering strong growth, it continues to be plagued by both software and hardware issuesOla Electric Scooter Front Fork breaks while ridingIn a recent incident involving Ola S1 Pro, the rider suffered serious injuries when the front fork suspension broke off. The owner claimed that the mechanical failure occurred when the scooter’s speed was just 35 kmph. However, as per Ola’s preliminary investigation, it is claimed that the incident actually involved a high-impact road accident.It is to note that several other users have reported similar cases of front forks breaking off. However, as earlier cases did not involve any major mishaps, they were not widely covered. Not many people were aware of this issue.Latest incident of Ola electric scooterOla’s official statementThe recent case was different, as the rider had suffered life threatening injuries and was admitted to ICU. In its official statement, Ola has stated that they have provided all the necessary support to the family of the rider involved in the accident. Ola has also informed that the rider is safe and is recovering.Talking about the incident, Ola says that vehicle safety and quality standards are their highest priority. Top-spec Ola S1 Pro electric scooter has the highest quality standards in all aspects. Moreover, it has been tested across challenging terrains and all-weather conditions. The scooter has been rigorously tested for more than 5 million km.Ola Electric official statementOla’s view about the front fork breakage issue is that such cases are rare and involve high impact accidents. Ola has more than 1.5 lakh scooters on the roads and only a few had the front fork issue. Ola says that the front fork arm has been tested with loads that are 80% more than the loads usually encountered by such scooters.However, as a precautionary measure and to assure community members, Ola has offered to get the scooters checked via their service network. Ola has also urged users to follow road safety protocols and wear a helmet.Possibility of manufacturing defects?As other users have also reported similar cases, it is possible that a specific batch of front forks may have manufacturing defects. Some people are also pointing fingers at the fact that Ola S1 and S1 Pro have only a single fork setup. However, Ola has already clarified that the front fork has been adequately tested.Change Org has highlighted the Ola scooter issue after the recent incident.A more detailed investigation needs to be done, as breaking of front suspension is not a common phenomenon. If we consider popular scooters like Honda Activa, there’s hardly any reported case of front fork breaking off. Even in accident cases, the front forks don’t just break off. This is true even when the scooter may be badly mangled.We pray for the speedy recovery of the rider and hope that such incidents do not occur again. Ola Electric needs to get to the bottom of these incidents and take appropriate measures to ensure that their scooters are completely safe. More
