2010 Benelli Tornado Tre 903

The authenticity of the technical options, advanced design and exclusivity from every part of only a few features that have made Tornado Tre 903 RS reference point in a strong field of bicycle SupersPort.
Every time a new Italian design bikes or cars usually creates excitement from the public and the press. Italian design is always different and Benelli Tornado RS certainly live up to this tradition! I saw a preview of the Tornado a few years ago and read about the reaction mixture, so finally I managed to get a real one for the road and test track to see what the fuss was about. There are plenty of top end sports bikes in the world, not only from Japan, but from England, Italy and now Germany too. So is the Benelli different from the others, you can see in a crowd?

I did a motorcycle trip to Three Cross Hospital in Dorset to collect, it was a warm sunny day and there I was going by car and trailer to get it. Why can not I ever get it right, always rains when i go to get a Harley with bike, still a good prediction for next week, maybe I’ll actually try it?

My question about Benelli soon get noticed is to answer the way home. Within 10 minutes of leaving it surrounded by spectators in the first set of lights at the local town, it was the beginning of a pattern! Wherever I went during the course of the next 10 days are the same, Benelli turned his head and it’s frankly difficult task these days with all the bikes look good in the market. Even non-bikers staring from the comfort of air-conditioned comfort of their cars. Maybe it was jealous when I weaved past them in traffic, maybe they all saw a bike like this, but I still find their way to the front of the line and still look away when I left them all looking teeth!
Big giveaway with RS Benelli fans were in the tail, talking about making people stare and a talk, drive fast on the person next to them and then the reaction – What are the ****’ s that? You can only imagine what they say, it just makes you laugh when you ride by. Of course in RS fans red to go with the whole bike, but in their Tre yellow, just to make them stand out even more. Let’s face it, in black it will never be the same!

After several days of riding it was time for the annual pilgrimage to Silverstone for the World Superbikes, three days and racing bikes, brilliant! This year I parked in the desert race with the Benelli, the irony of it themselves because they are not qualified for the race now. Why? World Superbike rule changes and Benelli built to comply with old rules, 750cc four-cylinder, three-cylinder 900cc and 1000cc twins. But for now 1000cc bikes, and that means big redesign if it will race again. And in my mind races properly.

Riding solo and two-up for several days, both in town and out in the usual way gave the first decision on a bike. While parked outside a cafe, it’s a real attention magnet, and get there on the road ballistic experience whatsoever! With a bike race equipment, handling and comfort was not the easiest to ride a bike much but the highest award you with the feel and feedback, and wow does it cover the roads with a speed of honor! If not enough, every time you appear in your partner’s house, they always come out to greet you with the words “Well I heard you were coming around the corner, it makes the entire room for the ‘It’s good to know that you’ve arrived!
So, what’s that really want to ride?

Run the motor and vibrates a little, then threw himself into groundshaking low rumble, a bit like my old Triumph Daytona T595, in fact much like that, but that’s where the similarity ends though. Maybe it sounds as relaxed idling standing at his side, but put it on your teeth and ride off and then you see a real difference!
Engine response is very good and interesting ‘turbines as’ from nothing to the tip top with smooth power delivery and torque tons. Cassette gearbox is very slick and quickshifting through a box with no clutch just fun. Changing down is easier and easier to fit shoes to clutch makes smooth gear changing without actually touching the clutch lever. Blip the throttle and snick in, nice and simple, except when you need to find neutral. There are two possibilities to find neutral, get it while you stop, or kill the engine and find it later. In talking with some other owners I found out that this is the nature of this box, fit for habitation with it, but the city was slightly damaged.

RS is much less weight on your wrist rather than what you’d expect from this style bike, and the thin wafers chair was not as bad as it looks good as well spread load. Suspension is firm to say the least and bumpy road back is not a recommended place to ride, so get them from the fine people ‘A’ and ‘path B’ for best results. Benelli RS needs to be ridden out of town, in the fast corners, a narrow road or flowing, truly did not mind, way more interesting the better because there is little need to change gear! There are slightly above 11 500 rpm to play with here, and there is also no point looking at where you suddenly take off, it really is as flexible as that. At normal cruising speeds Tornado RS is running on aa very relaxed 4500rpm at 70mph in 6th, but if you need to get something past or feel urgent to small bursts in the street all you need to do is twist the gas and away he went, solo or two-up made little difference.
Benelli spec sheet it says that this bike puts a claimed 133 bhp, and the new head to head in the Cadwell Park track with our long-term GSX-R 750 it was almost the same. There is really very little difference between them. The Benelli is smoother and more progressive power delivery than the 4cyl, but in terms of ‘chuckability’ GSX-R which is at the head of the queue. Tri a fantastic sound when you open it, induction noise alone makes you continue to do so more than 7000 rpm, then the roaring and only get faster and faster!

After just a few miles up in the streets for a few days it is time to understand the bike at the track, so we went to Cadwell Park to try it out properly. Handling on-road so far is fantastic, what it’s like on the track with higher speeds?

Benelli suspension is a package of quality that seems to get better and better the faster you go, but also works well on low speed. Overall feeling you get from this bike is that it’s really good front and rear planted in almost any speed, Benelli’ve definitely got a difficult balancing act of combining simple, fast and stable steering feel very well resolved. The Marzocchi 50mm USD forks are perfect for this bike, combined with a shock “” Extreme Technology rear you get all felt with absolute grip and stability, although the road was a bit stiff but not shared. On top of the yoke there is “Extreme Technology” steering damper, but I personally think it was way more than the need for accessories really do not need it. I declined to the lowest setting on the road and no need at all on the track. No matter what you do with the bike on acceleration or more bumps, no vague a headshake, rocking, in fact there never was a time when the silencer was actually going to work.
The same story pops up when you talk about braking. Benelli RS is equipped with Brembo 320mm front brakes with radial calipers 4 piston that does the job with no fuss and perfect feel and progression. On the road, you do not need more than one finger to bring you out of the normal speed, on track to add one more finger and you have the ‘King brakers end’! Braided hose / Brembo radial caliper combo in RS Benelli is another sign of the quality of this kit on that bike, bike with near perfect braking feel and some serious braking power when you need it.

The Benelli Tornado RS is a pure sports bike designed for the fun of winding road. There are some little things you should familiarize yourself, but overall a fantastic bike with one sole purpose in life – to excite! Riding position is perfect for sliding your buttocks off the seat and scrape your knee on the asphalt at nearly every corner. Bar just at the right place so they do not provide long-distance wrist pain, and I believe on one occasion I was doing more than 400 miles to Cadwell Park, drove in the lane all day and then go home again without wrist pain at all – your mind a little chair hard after that amount of time and I felt a little pain in there!

Tornado RS is the performance of real-world bikes and will be equal to any offers from Japan and countries of origin. A real thing about the Benelli RS is unique and will draw crowds wherever he went. This will fit the same poseurs and real riders, an exercise bike with a serious look beautiful and also quite good with the damn thing!

2010 Aprilia MXV 450

All design solutions without compromising on 450 MXV have been determined by the need to achieve the highest level of performance while extending the use of bicycles. Chair-down exhaust pipe, for example, featured a brand new road for better performance with more torque, motocross at low revs. Valve gear based on the single overhead cam and four titanium valves per cylinder gives the best compromise between a compact, lightweight and performance.
Thanks to advanced technology, highly civilized and the 45.2 engine still running even in the motocross version, and in accordance with FIM regulations easier for the emission of noise (94 dB threshold).
The MXV 450 affords beautifully easy access for maintenance (plugs, oil filters, air filters), and has extended maintenance intervals, far above average. This engine has a dry flood lubrication system with oil tank is integrated in the crankcase. Elimination of external oil tank and pipes that connect has caused a further decline in body weight.
Starter motor has been eliminated for the same reason. Getting started is to kick-start only to lose weight.
The important specifications of the engine in MXV 45.2 new:
* Electronic fuel injection.
* Dry Flood lubrication with oil tank integrated inside the crankcase. Separate lubrication for gearbox and engine to keep the oil for longer efficient.

CHASSIS: LIGHTER THAN EVER
Dimensional framework has been optimized to limit the use of motocross, and the whole framework has been developed to complement the engine. design is unique among frame motocross. A tubular steel trellis is interference fitted to pressed aluminum side plates to form a single structure. This machine is also an integral part of the chassis, acting as load-bearing elements and contributing to exceptional overall rigidity.
Particular care has been taken over the distribution of weight. Weight has been centralized as far as possible to enhance the agility in all conditions.
Weight (one of the most important aspect of any bicycle motocross) is central to design every part of the MXV, from the brake disc to the frame.
This suspension has been designed for lightweight and maximum elasticity and combines hydroformed members. The system offers improved linkage is damped by an adjustable Sachs monoshock fully race with two damping settings for high and low speed ride.
Side down Marzocchi fork has 50 mm cage and also calibrated for motocross. fork is fully customizable, so you can set their own suspension action exactly as you want.
The fuel tank has been redesigned to keep the bike’s center of gravity as close as possible to the physical center of the machine. Attention has also been given to remove the parts that stand out to reduce the width and improve ergonomics.
Centralization is also heavily influenced the design of a filter box. Filter is now located at the front of the bike, leaving the fuel tank more room to extend the rear shock absorber.
Grid filters also play a throttle body filter and facilitate change.
ECU and all electrical system components are also stored securely in a box filter.
Exhaust system, silencer under the seat and twin tail pipes made entirely of titanium (pipes and silencers).
Batteryless minimal electrical systems, and fully integrated in the filter box. Machinery and electrical systems so as to form a single block.
The two-tone seat helps the rider stepped maintain its position at any time.

2010 TUONO 1000 R White

Styling
Bicycles styling is unmistakably Aprilia, and unmistakably Tuono. The 1000 R Tuono maintain close family look with the previous model and the RSV 1000 R from the origin. That’s, newly aggressive nose fairing, with closely mounted twin lights, have been developed in wind tunnel testing to provide effective protection for the rider and to kill lift at high speeds, ensuring maximum precision and control.
The Tuono 1000 R has been designed with performance and comfort in mind. All parts are styled for stunning looks and maximum functionality. The two lateral spoilers, for example, not only looks great but also serve an important aerodynamic purpose. They help keep the bike stable at high speeds and keep the wind from the rider’s legs. This was partly thanks to these spoilers that the Tuono 1000 R aerodynamics provide better protection than the other naked.
The design team has also been trying hard to ensure that, unlike other nakeds, Tuono 1000 R benefits from race-tuned engine breathing. The Tuono 1000 R is the only naked with dynamic air intake located directly under the nose fairing, and channel to channel ram air through the frame to the airbox. Yet more evidence of the soul racing in 1000 without compromising the Tuono R’s!
In 1000 Tuono R, ergonomics is one of the stronger points bike. Seating position has been carefully designed to provide maximum control of the rider on the front end. The addition to the handlebars are lower and the footrests have been moved farther back, thus riding position is sportier and more effective. Nevertheless, the overall comfort and even increased, so the ride is less tiring.
Slender tail with integrated direction indicators is similar to RSV, but the points to increase the dynamic styling Tuono 1000 R’s. Motorbikes can also be quickly changed from double to single seat by an official Aprilia kits (optional).

The V60 Magnesium Evolution engine
Latest 1000 cc V 60 Magnesium Evolution engine from the RSV 1000 R Factory, with only some minor changes to improve torque and muscle at low revs. Machine has been thoroughly redesigned to maintain its reputation as the best twin cylinder engine in production. So performance is more amazing than ever, with power that can be used 100% and, of course, that proverbial Aprilia reliability.
Engine breathing has been improved by the new, larger valves (enlarged 31-33 mm in diameter) and a new exhaust header pipe diameter is greater. Thanks to this increase, the V60 Magnesium Evolution that drives Tuono 1000 R puts more strength than ever, 139 HP at 9500 rpm, while also increasing the torque to an impressive 10.9 kgm at 8500 rpm, a figure that tells you all you need to know about muscle Aprilia’s V twin can provide even at low revs.
The silencers have catalytic converters installed nearer the collector pipes. This solution has reduced converter activation time by 50%, while further reducing the rate of emissions, keeping tem well within the strict limits required for Euro 3 homologation.
optimized fluid dynamics inside the cylinder head has been improved by mapping the refinement of the combined ignition and fuel injection systems to achieve higher power throughout the useful range of rotation.

So let us look at the main characteristics of the new engine V 60 Magnesium Evolution:
· New optimized cylinder heads with larger valves and one spark plug per cylinder
· 57 mm throttle bodies with one injector per cylinder
High Strength conrods ·
· Lighter overall weight thanks to the extensive use of magnesium
· Close-ratio gearbox
· Dry Flood trochoid lubrication with double pump, separate oil tank and oil cooler
· Mixed gear and chain valve timing. Drive gear (one for each timing chain) located inside the crankcase to maintain the cylinder head as small as possible.
· AVDC (Anti Vibration Double countershaft).
· Aprilia’s patented PPC (Pneumatic Power Clutch) hydraulic-operated, power assisted clutch system for controlling rear wheel under the mental slowing

The Tuono 1000 R inherits the RSV’s dynamic air intake, the location was just below the light cluster, in the middle of the bike where ram air pressure is highest. Air Runner duct (which also supports the nose and instrument prize) to the airbox air channels, 10.3 liters designed to allow the engine to develop its full potential. Air ducts Runner ensure that the pressure in the airbox increases with speed, and produces 3% increase in engine power at maximum speed.
Engine control unit developed in conjunction with Siemens VDO provides integrated engine management. ECU receives all essential engine parameters in real time from 15 different sensors, processes the data and, again in real time, controls the various actuators that keep the engine functioning perfectly at all times.
Flash EPROM unit is equipped with mapping for unrestricted racing out ready to load. Aprilia Technical Assistance Service can therefore enable race mapping in next to no time on request.

FRAME
Do you ride on the street or on the track, Tuono 1000 R’s chassis brings you the top performance and control. Every aspect of the frame, suspension fork and have been refined according to the perfect weight distribution. In accordance with Aprilia traditions, the frame is a combination of aluminum-silicon foundry alloys and Peraluman 450 pressed parts. A highly sophisticated structure is not only more rigid than the previous version but lighter too. Latest frame weighs under 10 kg (9650 grams) setting an impressive new record for its class. wheelbase is shorter too, and at 1410 mm – the record for the category – accounts for the Tuono 1000 R rack’s than the handling and more instinctive ride.
The new double banana suspension gives a clear section for exhaust system and weighs only 4860 grams, well under the 5 kg figure considered by experts as a reference weight for this component.

SUSPENSION
fork is a Showa upside down unit, with a 43 mm cage for the perfect balance between precision on the racetrack and comfort on the road. And to ensure that the ideal setup can be achieved for all styles and conditions, on the road and on the same line, the fork is fully adjustable in spring preload and in compression and rebound damping. The Sachs monoshock at the rear is also regulated in spring preload and rebound damping.

Braking System
Braking system has undergone some major changes. The new Tuono 1000 R is equipped with Brembo radial calipers Gold featuring two separate sintered pads. The two 320 mm floating steel discs feature a narrower braking band to minimize inertia and weight and stay in place by Aprilia exclusive six spoke flange.
rear braking system is Brembo Gold too, with 220 mm stainless steel disc and the caliper with the two 32 mm pistons.
The front and rear brakes both use aeronautical metal braided hoses to eliminate the sponginess definitely associated with conventional brake hoses and to ensure maximum braking precision.

COMPONENTS
What makes the Aprilia Tuono 1000 R stand out from the competition is the care and attention that Aprilia has paid incredible to every small detail. The design team doing the best they have to ensure that every component on the bike to improve performance and functionality, reduce weight and improve the quality and completion.

The following components deserve special attention.
- Dashboard is a unit (digital-analog) mixture. This uses the data received from the CAN line to perform functions essential for autodiagnostic which also has a special memory. New dashboard control unit performs the same function as the previous unit (including the 40 lap timer) but is more compact and modern in design and extremely lightweight. User friendliness has improved too, with all functions controlled from two practical push-buttons on the left hand light switch.

The LED backlighting can also be adjusted to three levels of intensity.
· The cluster light comes from the RSV, and incorporates a four unit visibility for night-time light is perfect.
· The tail light cluster features the new innovative design and LED lighting RSV.

Benelli TNT 1130 Titanium

Overview

Benelli is a clear objective to make even more explosive racing bike. And that’s what the TNT Titanium is: inspired by racing bikes but with the handling and flexibility that can only offer Naked bike. From the exhilaration of a true racing bike is secured with exceptional equipment: carbon fairings, titanium exhaust system, suspension can really set on low and high speeds, dry clutch, forged wheels, radial brake system, an eccentric system for complete footboard adjustment .
Everything needed for perfect tuning when rising Titanium TNT in natural terrain: the track. The elegance of this bike is also enhanced with a unique color of the fairings and frame and fabric chair exclusively.
An important innovation in the motor: as in all the TNT model year 2005 versions, the Titanium offers the possibility of modifying motor functions by simply pressing the button lights up on the dash support. Engine control unit can be switched between free power and controlled power for better control of the motorcycle in poor traction conditions with a decrease in fuel consumption 10-20%, depending on driving style and on the road. Free power configuration makes it possible to enjoy the features of the motor torque and power, while the controlled power configuration makes it possible to easily use the motorcycles in town, even on asphalt with poor traction, either alone or with a passenger, without stress.

2010 TNT 1130 Titanium Front

Exclusive technical aspects are also seen in the extraordinary cycle: this version sports a strong fork 50 mm fully regulated in compression, extension and spring preload, with a hard surface to improve quality of shear which contribute to making the road holding solid and precise. Back shock absorber body in Ergal – light and unique in the world panorama; it’s really set in compression – with double adjustment for high and low speeds – extension and spring preload to offer a good level of performance and dependability to create a safe ride in all conditions asphalt.

Attention is given to the search light and performance, which is confirmed by using the false Marchesini rims and aluminum alloy engine and Brembo braking system of a mountain 4 piston radial calliper and 320 mm diameter double disk on the front.

As you can see, the TNT Titanium is a motorcycle, was unprecedented with a unique personality that marked changes in the world motorcycle market. Benelli bikes tend to look the same so that the mechanical features of Titanium in 2007 was shared with the Café Racer in 1130 and, at first glance, you will not find a radical design differences between the one and the others, but all consist of little things that make it special and even placed in a class by itself. Motorcycles today is just an idea producer naked bike (which is quite nice, by the way) while the 1130 Café Racer riders bring back the rebels back when they break things racing.

I just want to make clear early on that 07 Titanium is not just another bicycle equipped with a 1131cc engine, but a new interpretation of features that will make the bike the other says a prayer. A revised fuel injection 1131cc liquid-cooled in-line triple with DOHC and 12 valves developed a 131.3 horsepower at 9.250 rpm and 117 Nm at 6750 rpm, so that now it is clear that improvement never ends. Attention to detail is also very good, so obviously will stand as an interesting journey.

2010 KTM 300 EXC

Off-road racing is a big right now, throw a moto-media-country and cross-din Endurocross racing. In the story, look closely at the photo. Chances are you’ll see a bike more often than anything else: The KTM 300 XC, or wide-ratio transmission relatives, 300 XC-W.

Although the four-stroke revolution, KTM has remained committed to improving the two-stroke engines, and for good reason. Low cost, low noise, simplicity and good old-fashioned power to weight ratio is a strong selling point that the KTM has been cashing in with their extensive line of two-stroke engines.

XC 300 is lighter, which is 216 pounds, from almost all the 250F. 300 XC-W, W indicates the ratio of the width of transmission, are boys more weight in the 221. It relied too; it is unusual for drivers to get 200 hours from the top end at 300. You try that on a four-stroke racing!

300 starts with ease, but if you really lazy that magic button. Yup, the E-start on two-stroke! That may sound vain at first, but as you’ll find features you love! This machine has always been a huge seller for the KTM, but for 2010 bicycles are still receiving updates airbox, cooling and exhaust systems.
300 is a thin, lightweight and just feel like a racer when you’re sitting in the garage. KTM engine market as a ‘do everything’ bike, so it has minimal off-road-frills but the cable to run the lighting Enduro off-road drivers who preferred wheels 18 “rear, the X-ring chain, a large quiet muffler and material capacity adequate fuel (three gallons) for a typical loop ENDURO. It even has an electronic odometer, it is important if your style of racing enduros timeliness. other things is all ‘normal motocross bike KTM’, with the suspension set-motocross somewhere between stiff and ENDURO-squish.

Once the 300 warms up, you realize you ride two-stroke final. Bottom end power smooth, with more torque from idle than most 450Fs. Meat from each powerband off-road cycling is a midrange, and KTM pulled hard enough to compete with, if not out-pull, most 450s. Above average power smoothly, but then you instinctively know that you should have already shifted. Our testing facility approximately 500 meters above sea level, with air temps in the low 50s. Running on 91-octane pump gas, premixed at 60:1, the jetting KTM shares almost spot-on. Of course, a stroke two, is sensitive to changes in weather and altitude. It has an old two-stroke buzz as well, you know, that nature hits hoarse ‘and running’ that the two-stroke riders love and hate strokes four people. That the sharp nature are the number one reason might have been 300 forest reigned for so long, and kept at the correct age of political thumpers become one of the best motorcycle KTM sells.

2010 KTM 300 EXC

The hydraulic clutch has a light and attractive feel worthy, but it will fade when it becomes hot. After the violence at motocross track by test driver Pro clutch started to crawl, which has been repaired but not completely cured by bleeding the system. Shifting is smooth, with wide disparities in the transmission ratio of our test bike easily overcome with torquey engines. We prefer versions XC ratio close to the Eastern racing motocross and woods, but honestly the wide-ratio transmission is a small problem with so much power on tap.
Talking about motocross, bicycles will be killed at the age or class women where there is no rule of displacement. It will run with 450, started by pressing a button and is lighter and easier to ride than 250F but much stronger. However, this suspension was deliberate ‘road’, aimed more at more than cross-country racing motocross. 175-pound Pro we’re always tinkering with the suspension settings on the two different test tracks, a hard clay and one of the long sandy beach, never came to the setting happy and finally concluded that the bike will require professional assistance at both ends. In the forest fared much better suspension. We heard little complaining about the back end or fork of the majority of our testers, but our Pro riders still hoping for harder compression damping and better bottoming resistance. Everyone, sooner or later, whined because they have so much trouble with the settings in each location different tests when some other bikes we’ve tested lately worked so well everywhere outside the right of the box.
Some other weak points raised their heads in the forest. We heat the rear brake a few times; on one occasion so bad we had to cool the caliper with water so the wheel will change. Stomach tube hangs way out there the wind, requiring a guard with the worst way. When you have your armor plating KTM skid plate and hand guards as well. Woods ready to race? Not quite, but the KTM is a bit cheaper to prepare for racing off-road motocross bike than a normal change.

Handling with improved speed over the previous KTMs, with less than headshake KTM famous and general nervousness. Cornering fast, lightweight and accurate when the suspension is set up properly, but once again the bike was very fussy in the department. In the woods we finally shift the forks in the clamps of three until they touch the bottom of the handlebars, which we have installed at the furthest forward position. Which helps the film 300 through the trees with more precision, at the expense of some stability.

What we have here is a bike that requires very careful setup, but perfectly capable of winning any type of racing you throw at it. Confidence inspiring, 300 XC-W light and responsive – to make drivers feel invincible. Not easy to stall, but if you mess up a flick of the thumb had to walk back without wasting time.

Pro motocross our tester, who usually races a Honda CRF450R, so fascinated with our test bike that he was trying to buy our test bike from KTM … not only for timber but for racing motocross racing and motocross schools teach it. Personally, I hate to give this bike back.

Other testers, intermediate and beginner levels, is less enthused. They liked the bike overall okay, but the fuss and setup issues are not only used to catch the two did not give them the match.

Bottom line? This is the bike can win – anywhere, anytime. That fact has been proven many times around the world. Take the time to contact 300 XC-W (MSRP $ 7.998) in for whatever you want to do, learn to deal with weirdness and you’ll be rewarded with a bike race the most flexible and competitive two-stroke you can buy.

fairing, for example, perfected by extensive wind tunnel testing, to ensure a great wind protection and minimum drag for maximum racetrack efficiency. The fairing, windshield and tail not only look mean and aggressive, but it enables hospitals to achieve a top speed of 125 bright, eliminating all turbulence around the rider and allows human and machine become one.
The latest generation twin halogen lights also add a view that the mean of 125 new hospitals, and provide a high energy beam of light to improve visibility and safety at night. Slender tails exactly like the tail of the Grand Prix racer. Thanks to the efforts put into the RS 125 tail design, even the passenger seat does not interfere with the bike’s impeccable lines.
Wheels across the speech is not only lighter and more stylish, but safer and more reliable as well.

ENGINE
Cylinder powerful but reliable, one, two stroke, Rotax-Aprilia engine needs no introduction. Over the years, has won a reputation for being unbeatable on the track and dependable on the road.
