      New BMW S1000RR Vs Rivals – Yamaha R1, CBR 1000RR-R, Panigale, ZX-10R

      by

      Even though Yamaha R1, Honda Fireblade and Suzuki GSXR-1000 are not currently offered in India, they rival BMW S1000RRBMW S1000RR Vs RivalsAfter the launch of BMW G 310 RR, BMW have now turned towards its flagship litre-class motorcycle that sits in 200 bhp+ category. This is where racing machines like Kawasaki ZX-10R, Aprilia RSV4 1100, Ducati Panigale V4, Yamaha YZF-R1, Honda CBR 1000RR-R Fireblade and Suzuki GSXR-1000 currently party.We are aware that the latter three motorcycles are currently not on sale in India. But it would be unfair to leave these stalwarts behind just because India doesn’t get them. In global markets, these litre class machines are hugely popular after middle-weight machines. Let’s see how the recently launched BMW S 1000 RR fares.BMW S1000RR Vs RivalsStarting with their prices, it is Kawasaki ZX-10R at Rs. 15.99 lakh that absolutely decimates its rivals as it is brought into the country via CKD route while the rest are imports. At Rs. 26.49 lakh, Standard Panigale V4 is more expensive than top-spec BMW S1000RR Pro M Sport which is priced at 24.55 lakh. Top-spec SP2 variant of Ducati Panigale V4 costs a hefty Rs. 40.99 lakh (all prices ex-sh).Highest displacement among this bunch goes to Italians. RSV4 displaces 1099cc and Panigale displaces 1103cc, while Japs and Germans stick within 1000cc. Outright power award goes to Honda Fireblade with 215 bhp and R1 makes the least power at 194.3 bhp. Both Italians make their power lower in the range of 13,000 RPM. Fireblade makes its excess power at 14,500 RPM.BMW S1000RR Vs RivalsTorque war is dominated by Aprilia. It makes the highest torque at 125 Nm at 10,500 RPM. That said, Ducati is not far off with 123.4 Nm, but this torque comes in at just 9,500 RPM. Fireblade, on paper, looks the laziest as it makes its 113 Nm torque at 12,500 RPM. All the motorcycles come with a 6-speed gearbox with quick shifters and top speed hovers around 300 km/h mark.Ducati Panigale V4 has the longest wheelbase at 1469mm and Yamaha R1 has the shortest at 1405mm aiding handling. Suzuki GSXR-1000 and BMW S1000RR are short-rider-friendly with relatively low seat height. Kawasaki ZX-10R is the lightest motorcycle of the bunch weighing in at just 193 kg and RSV4 is the heaviest at 202 kg.SpecsWhile all litre-class bikes come with the same front tyre size, S1000RR, RSV4, Panigale V4 and Fireblade offer 200-section rear tyre, while rest come shod with 190-section tyre wrapped to 17” alloy wheels at both front and back. Ducati is the only one offering a 245mm rear disc and the rest of the rivals come with 220mm rear disc. Braking hardware on all motorcycles are handled by flagship equipment by makers like Nissin and Brembo.BMW S1000RR is the only one that features larger 45mm front adjustable USD forks which are from Marzocchi as opposed to 43mm forks from brands like Ohlins and WP. Some top-spec variants also offer electronically adjustable suspensions as well. Something that BMW misses on. All the motorcycles come packed to the gills with electronic aids to aid performance.With an almost 18L fuel tank, Aprilia offers the longest track time before refilling. As Kawasaki is locally assembled, it offers a stunning proposition of highest performance for just Rs. 15.99 lakh (ex-sh). As to why Yamaha, Honda and Suzuki don’t bring their enthusiast track bikes to India, it is best known to them. More

      Honda Electric Motorcycle Design Sketch – USD Forks, Dual Disc

      by

      Honda has chalked out aggressive plans for EV segment, with target to launch at least 10 new electric-two-wheelers by 2025Honda Electric Bike TeasersAs part of its program to achieve carbon neutrality, Honda will be stepping-up focus on introducing multiple electric two-wheelers as well as flex-fuel vehicles. Honda’s electric portfolio will include electric bikes, mopeds, commuters and more powerful, performance-oriented electric bikes.To expedite the process, Honda has teamed up with other companies such as Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha. The collaboration will entail development of standardized swappable battery architecture. Such collaborations will help reduce development and production cost, which will benefit all stakeholders and the entire electric two-wheeler ecosystem.Honda electric bike designBased on design sketch of Honda’s upcoming electric bike, it is evident that the brand’s signature styling will continue in electric segment. This is especially true for its performance-oriented electric bikes. The image of the bike was posted by the American division of Honda. Design language of the bike looks familiar to that of recently launched CB750 Hornet and CB300F.As compared to electric scooters that offer more freedom to experiment with the design, the choices are fairly limited in case of electric bikes. A major reason is placement of battery, which has to be centrally mounted. To ensure an optimal centre of gravity, the most suitable place is lower middle section. This is where ICE-based motorcycles have their engine. Most electric bikes follow the same approach and it continues with Honda’s upcoming electric bike.Honda Electric Motorcycle Design SketchWhile only the side view is visible in the sketch, the outline of a flat-type, aggressive front fascia can be seen. Other key features include low-set handlebar, USD front forks in golden finish, sculpted fuel tank, step-up seat, short tail section, alloy wheels, disc brakes at both ends and sporty graphics.Body panelling is closely knit and tightly packed, which helps ensure a compact look and feel for the bike. Covers for the battery and electric powertrain are done in metallic finish, which introduces another layer of aesthetic dynamism. As this is a design sketch, there are likely to be several iterations before the bike reaches production stage. Newer innovations in battery technology and linked hardware could also influence the final design of the bike.Honda electric two-wheeler for IndiaHonda’s Benly e: electric scooter has been spied on road tests multiple times. Either Benly e: could be launched in India or there could be an entirely new product. With Activa the current bestseller, Honda could introduce a similar product in electric format to target the mass market. In international markets, there are multiple versions of Benly e: electric scooter. The top-spec variant has a range of 87 km.Honda Electric Two Wheeler Launch PlanHonda electric scooter for India will have multiple challengers such as Ather 450X, TVS iQube, Ola S1 Pro and Bajaj Chetak. Ola especially is quite gung-ho, having announced its intention to beat Honda Activa sales by August 2023. Whether or not it materializes remains to be seen. More

      New Yamaha Augur 155cc Scooter Debuts – Engine From R15, Aerox

      by

      If launched in India, Yamaha Augur Maxi Scooter will rival its sibling Aerox 155 and Aprilia SXR 1602023 Yamaha Augur 155cc Scooter DebutsIndia has a few performance-oriented scooters, apart from Yamaha Aerox 155. Some of them are TVS NTORQ and Aprilia SR 160. These were pitted as sporty scooters to appeal to younger gen who do not want commuter scooters.As sporty as they are, Yamaha Aerox 155 quickly established itself as the go-to performance scooter in India. It featured tech like VVA, liquid cooling and more which the scooter segment in India has never heard of before. Being one of the few maxi-scooters helped its cause even further.New Yamaha Augur 155cc ScooterWith demand for maxi-scooters on the rise in many parts around the world, Yamaha has unveiled yet another maxi scooter. Called Augur 155cc, it is similar to Aerox 155, but is completely different in its character and functionality. Let’s take a look.With a radical design, Yamaha Augur looks like something that came out of a Cyberpunk world. Up front, we have a new fairing that has a distinct alienist face. There are multiple body panels and all of them converge towards the centre where Augur’s LED projector headlight is housed. This is not just a regular headlight. It gets LEDs in them to illuminate the road.2023 Yamaha Augur 155cc Scooter DebutsThis headlight is very advanced, considering that it is installed in a scooter. For one, the headlight gets variable colour temperatures, yellow and white, for varied road conditions. Secondly, it gets tilt functionality which lights a secondary light towards the corner to illuminate the corner before taking a turn. This is similar to cornering headlights found in cars.2023 Yamaha Augur 155cc Scooter DebutsOther features include a 4.3” colour TFT display that gets connected functionalities like turn-by-turn navigation and check engine parameters like engine oil and battery status via phone App. Traction control, ABS, Keyless ignition, and other features complement its radical and futuristic design.Augur 155cc Scooter SpecsYamaha Augur maxi scooter features the same 155cc engine derived from R15 V4. This engine makes 14.79 bhp of power and 13.9 Nm of torque and comes equipped with a 4V head, liquid cooling and VVA tech. Aerox 155 gets a 230mm front disc and rear drum brake setup in India. Yamaha Augur maxi scooter gets a 267mm front disc with twin-pot caliper and a 230mm rear disc brake.2023 Yamaha Augur 155cc Scooter DebutsSuspension duties on Augur are handled by telescopic forks up front and twin shock absorbers at the rear. Aerox 155 gets 14” alloy wheels at both ends while Augur gets 13” alloys. Augur gets a fatter front tyre at 120 section as opposed to 110 on Aerox. Rear tyre on Augur is 130 section, while Aerox gets 140.Augur gets a larger 6.1L fuel tank as opposed to 5.5L on Aerox. Owing to all this equipment, Augur weighs 132 kg and is heavier as opposed to 126 kg of Aerox 155 sold in India. Despite being largely similar to Aerox 155, Augur gets a step-through floor board which enhances practicality ten fold. Whereas Aerox 155 gets a center tunnel.[embedded content][embedded content]Yamaha India has not revealed any plans on introducing this in India. That said, we think it would be a brilliant alternative to Aerox 155 owing to its enhanced practicality and technology. More

      Pure EV ecoDryft Electric Motorcycle Launch – 130 Km Range, 4 Colours

      by

      Pure EV ecoDryft poses a lot of familiarities with regular commuters, except for the engine, which is replaced by a batteryPure EV ecoDryft Electric MotorcycleThe electric revolution is coming or has arrived. It depends on your perception of electric 2W segment in India where ICE 2W still dominates the market. That is changing with a slew of electric scooters from various startups and mainstream manufacturers alike. With the launch of Honda’s electric scooter in 2023, 2W EV segment is likely to get a big boost.That said, there are electric motorcycles springing up every now and then. We have Tork Kratos, Hop OXO and the upcoming Oben Rorr. But these are marketed at enthusiasts and premium end packed to the gills with gizmos. What about budget electric motorcycles? This is where Pure EV ecoDryft comes into picture.Pure EV ecoDryft ElectricThis is Pure EV’s flagship offering and is set to cater to budget and commuter motorcycle buyers. These buyers are looking to shift towards electricity for everyday commutes and an EV fits the bill perfectly. According to the company, commuter motorcycles constitute 80% of all motorcycles sold in India and more than 50% of all 2W vehicles across segments.In 2021, Pure EV launched ETryst 350 which was aimed at premium segment. With ecoDryft, Pure EV claims to be the first to offer a commuter electric motorcycle. Pricing is not yet revealed and will be announced in first week of January 2023, ahead of commencing bookings. There are 4 colours on offer – Black, Grey, Blue and Red.Pure EV ecoDryft Electric MotorcycleDr. Nishanth Dongari, Founder, PURE EV said, “The launch of this commute motorcycle is a game changer and would be a demonstration of PURE EV’s significant learnings in the powertrain design and development at our R&D centre. The core R&D activities of the company are aligned keeping in mind the expectations of the average Indian customer who generally prefers a commuting motorcycle that satisfies their daily requirements without compromising on comfort and reliability.”He added, “We have been carrying out extensive trials and testing for this product and are confident that the product will deliver highly competitive performance with respect to existing range of ICE motorcycles and will be another step in the direction of switching customers towards EVs as major ICE 2W sales are commute motorcycles. This is a game changer not only for the company but also for the country’s EV adoption vision as well.”Specs & FeaturesThe main talking point of this motorcycle is its patented battery pack. It has a capacity of holding 3.0 kWh of charge and comes with AIS 156 certification. This means, its battery should survive indirect fire for over 2 minutes. It has been designed keeping fire hazards in mind.Pure EV ecoDryft Electric MotorcyclePure EV ecoDryft claims up to 130 km of range from a single charge while top speed is capped at 75 km/h. This is inline with what budget commuters have to offer for city commutes. Looks are vastly commuter-ish and comes with a front disc brake. It gets a hub motor at the rear. Battery is mounted on to its frame where an engine would be mounted in a regular ICE commuter. More

      Harley Davidson 350cc, 500cc First Photos Leak – Royal Enfield Rival

      by

      With lower pricing, Harley-Davidson X350 and X500 will mainly target developing countries like India, ASEAN region and the likesNew Harley Davidson 350cc MotorcycleHarley-Davidson has been expanding its portfolio. Even though the company has been introducing new motorcycles in varied segments, there hasn’t been much success when budget and inexpensive motorcycles are concerned. Sure, we got Street 750. And later, Street Rod 750 was launched with improved quality. But their sales numbers failed to increase and Harley-Davidson’s dream of budget motorcycles still remained at large.American brand Harley-Davidson is known to offer quintessential cruiser bikes with a roaring V-twin engine. It has been one of the most popular and sought-after motorcycle brands where cruisers and choppers are considered. With prices on the higher side, its products are not often accessible to people looking for a cruiser on a budget.Harley Davidson 350cc Photos LeakThis is why Royal Enfield’s 650cc platform is currently one of the most popular choices. Not only RE 650 twins are top sellers in its category in India, but are also generating good sales outside India. Apart from offering good quality and performance, another reason for RE’s success in the 650cc segment is due to its aggressive pricing.To match in pricing, Harley-Davidson is now sourcing motorcycles from QJ Motor, parent to Keeway and Benelli brands that are currently on sale in India. Two motorcycles are in the works between both brands codenamed HD350 and HD500. First images of these motorcycles have now leaked online.New Harley Davidson 350cc MotorcycleIn reality, they are highly likely to be called X350 and X500 as seen in the leaked spy shots. The smaller X350 looks a lot like 338R concept design shown in 2019. It was supposed to be equipped with Benelli 302S’ 338cc engine. Times have changed and there is a new 353cc version of that engine in production. Hence the name X350.X350 gets a frame that is quite similar to QJ SRK350 sold overseas. Both motorcycles seem to share their USD forks at front, petal disc brakes and alloy wheel design. This 350cc engine makes around 36 bhp and doesn’t seem adequate when 195 kg weight is considered. In contrast, SRK350 weighs only 176 kg.New Harley Davidson 500cc MotorcycleThis is the one that is likely to make a lot of buzz. Harley-Davidson X500 will be vastly similar to Benelli Leoncino 500 that is sold in India. It gets a 500cc parallel-twin engine and makes 47 bhp of power. Going with its displacement, X500’s 207 kg of weight seems to be right for the segment.New Harley Davidson 500cc MotorcycleLeoncino 500 and X500 will share chassis, braking components and suspension as well. X500 dons a larger conventional dual disc setup than X350’s smaller petal discs. Stopping power comes from 4-pot calipers. With these motorcycles, Harley-Davidson is set to venture into budget cruiser motorcycles. But those who were expecting a V-Twin with belt drive, will be slightly disappointed. Both these motorcycles are expected to be launched in India next year.Source More

      Honda CB300F Price Cut By Rs 50k – Now Cheaper Than Dominar 250

      by

      As year-end arrives, Honda CB300F prices cut by Rs. 50,000 on its ex-sh price – This is likely to breathe new life into Honda’s 300cc lineupHonda CB300F Price Cut. Image – Auto Travel Tech.While the Indian automotive fraternity was expecting the launch of Forza 350 maxi scooter, we got the unexpected Honda CB300F. The motorcycle boasted a lightweight character which would result in peppy performance and a better power-to-weight ratio.Priced at Rs. 2.26 lakh for Deluxe variant and Rs. 2.29 lakh for Deluxe Pro variant, Honda CB300F prices seemed to be a downside for the motorcycle. Further hurting its image was the more powerful CB300R sold alongside it at Rs. 2.77 lakh (all prices ex-sh).Honda CB300F Price Cut By Rs 50KIt has come to light that dealers of the Japanese brand have slashed the ex-sh price of CB300F by Rs. 50,000 flat. As per dealer, this is part of Honda’s year-end offer for CB300F and takes the ex-sh price to around Rs. 1.75 lakh only. On-road price in Telangana state is around 2.10 lakh and in Karnataka state is around 2.2 lakh. In Chandigarh or Puducherry, on-road prices may be around Rs. 2 lakh.This seems to be a good deal for Honda fans looking to buy a 300cc motorcycle. With Rs. 50K slashed off its ex-sh price, Honda CB300F lends a whole new perspective towards it and sheds a different light on the product altogether.Honda CB300F Price CutAt first, an offer like this seemed too good to be true. Later, we confirmed the offer from multiple Honda Big Wing dealerships, including in cities like Hyderabad and Bengaluru. At this price point, CB300F competes with 250cc street motorcycles like Bajaj Dominar 250 and Suzuki Gixxer 250 which are priced at Rs. 1.75 lakh and Rs. 1.77 lakh respectively (ex-sh).Motorcycles like KTM Duke 200 are pricier than the Honda CB300F with this revised pricing due to year-end offer. For the price, Honda CB300F offers gold USD forks at front and a copper-colored engine head and clutch cover. These elements up the premium quotient which Honda generally aims for.Features include HSTC (Honda Selectable Torque Control) which is basically a traction control system, dual-channel ABS, fully digital instrument console with adjustable brightness, smartphone connectivity via Bluetooth, full LED lighting all around, and the company boasts 10 patented tech on CB300F.Specs & FeaturesHonda CB300F gets a new 293 cc single-cylinder engine which gets a DOHC setup and a 4V head. It makes 23.8 bhp of power at 7,500 RPM and 25.6 Nm of torque at a low 5,500 RPM. This engine is mated with a 6-speed gearbox and comes with oil cooling and a slipper clutch.The main highlight of this motorcycle was its low 153 kg kerb weight. In comparison, a KTM Duke 200 weighs 159 kg and Gixxer 250 weighs 156 kg despite only getting a lighter and less complex SOHC setup. Honda CB300F prices slashed with a year-end offer seems to be the right time to buy it as this offer might end in 2022. More
