When you miss a motorcycling saloon nothing can make you more envy on the ones that went than the pictures that appear after. And if these pics are being sent to you by them in person then you’re guaranteed not to miss the next show. But no matter what, you’ll enjoy them and that is exactly what I am inviting you to do now. >> read
Following the stage of Monza planned this weekend Honda will go on with the festivities of the Italian branch at the SantaMonica Autodrom in Misano.
Everybody is invited to finally meat their favorite models in the 2008 Honda range and there will be no entry price. That wouldn’t be a problem as the Festival has the clear purpose of allowing potential customers or simply those with a soft spot for this maker to try bikes on the road (for all) or even on the track (only for (...) >> read
I would really like to know that this is true, but it looks like an encouraging joke. Even though it and sounds like a Kawasaki commercial and although it isn’t, still remains well worth to being shared with you. I’m sure that that fifth series BMW could do more that just gather dust out there, but I guess our rider would simply make fun of it so the police man simple conformed.
Three persons riding a motorcycle, others crashing scooters and two guys inventing motorcycle skiing sure sounds like a lot of fun to me. And it seems that these skilled riders in Spain do this just for fun and eventually to damage a few bones and ending out on Youtube.
The World’s Most Advanced 1/8th Scale Radio Controlled motorcycle seems like a lot of fun and good training for spoiled kids willing to become a small Rossi one day. Development never stops so who knows, maybe we’ll even be seeing races with these things any time soon.
The first BMW car was built in Berlin: on 22 March 1929 the first BMW 3/15 PS’s left the production hall rented by BMW near Berlin-Johannisthal Airport. The first BMW motorcycle, the R 32 featuring an air-cooled twin-flat engine and shaft drive, was presented a few years earlier in 1923 at the German Car Show in Berlin. The BMW Plant Berlin was part of the team almost from the start: the history of BMW AG started with the production of aircraft engines in Berlin.
The first BMW motorcycle built in Berlin - a BMW R 60/2 — came off the assembly line in 1967, but the motorcycle of the Berlin Plant in the former aircraft engine plant started much earlier back in 1949 with production of the first parts for motorcycles still built in Munich back then. Over the years, motorcycle production was shifted step-by-step from Munich to Berlin. And to this day, Berlin remains the only production plant for BMW motorcycles the world over. Nearly all parts and components required for this purpose were manufactured at the Plant, with a total workforce of not quite 400 employees working in motorcycle production back then. Apart from consistently modernizing the facilities, motorcycle production as a whole was substantially expanded in 1983 upon the introduction of the K-Series, BMW AG investing some DM 500 million in an entirely new assembly building and system, as well as a highly automated production line for engine components. Ten years later the Company modernized and expanded the As
sembly Hall and the Machining Shop for engine and chassis components upon the introduction of the new Boxer generation. And to assemble the single-cylinder F 650 models built at the Berlin Plant since spring 2000, an additional assembly line was installed to provide the capacity required.
Today a total of 1,923 employees build up to 540 motorcycles a day in BMW’s three model series — motorcycles with a single-, two- or four-cylinder power unit. To achieve the growth targets set by the Company in the highly competitive motorcycle market, the BMW Group invested a total of more than Euro 117 million in the expansion of motorcycle production in the years 2001-2003. In February 2002 the Berlin Plant opened a brand-new production building for motorcycle assembly which, with its "intelligent" C-hook system, is absolutely unique throughout the worldwide motorcycle industry. Ultra-modern five-directional machining centers, a high-tech 10-directional laser cutting system, and a valve seat force-fit machine developed exclusively by BMW for production purposes are further examples of truly outstanding efficiency and flexibility — and, at the same time, serve to guarantee premium quality. The same premium quality is ensured by the new Engine Assembly Shop with its highly flexible assembly system and high
tech testing equipment, which successfully entered operation in September 2003. Since November 2003 the BMW Plant Berlin has been painting motorcycle parts in a new Paintshop, using trendsetting technologies and working to the highest standards of environmental protection. In all, this makes BMW’s Motorcycle Plant in Berlin one of the most modern motorcycle plants in the world. Apart from motorcycles, the Berlin Plant has been manufacturing components such as brake discs for car production ever since 1979. Accordingly, Berlin plays an active role within the BMW Group’s production network, supplying automotive parts.
This video presents Suzuki’s impressive 2008 Motorcycle and ATV models in action. Machines such as the Hayabusa, B-King, Boulevard and GSX-R will surely not pass unnoticed, but for all ATV fans out there, pulling logs becomes the easiest task with the King Quad or Quad Sport.
Usually, the stunts that we post have only happy endings and often break a world record, but this is no usual stuff! In this video which shows a stunt attempt the bike’s wheels miss the ramp, but the rider doesn’t and he slides all the way to its top.
Even though it looks like a rebut video, this motorcycle ad for Cycle Plus Inc. manages to reach its goal and do some commercial to the Elkhorn, Wisconsin based motorcycle dealer.
