A.C. Schnitzer radically transforms the already impressive BMW F800GS off-roader into a ready to hit the track hypermotard. The tuners have simply added 17-inch wheels wearing road rubber and retuned the suspensions for street use.
The engine remains the same 800cc unit developing 85 horsepower, as well as the entire bike, except the previous mentioned changes and adjusting. This upgrade, if you will, took place in the German performance shop and it didn’t took more than a few hours once all the parts were there.
Who knows, maybe BMW will be inspired by this creation and add it to their lineup. I sure know it looks good.
Drew Estate has teamed up with Cigars International to develop the 1st ever ACID motorcycle. Scott Chester of ACID has put forth his talents to paint this 2008 Kawasaki ZX14R which you can win next year. Watch the video and find out how...being a smoker helps.
The Beatles themed Harley-Davidson motorcycle is suppose to remain timeless as the British band’s songs. Dedicated to the most beloved singers in the U.K., the Beatles Bike represents them in their most important moments and stands as a moving statement of their greatness.
Who knows, maybe you’ve got a spare Aprilia lying around. So what can you do with it? One thing you can do, is take it to custom shop MotoMorphic in San Rafael, California. There, they can transform your old and bland Aprilia into something more eye-catching.
Motorcycle manufacturers need to design motorcycle that appeal to a large group of potential buyers, while custom shops need to apply their trade to make one person happy; you the customer. So they can do more or less whatever they (...) >> read
They are sharp, attractive and very stylish! The new Vance & Hines exhausts for Harley-Davidson manage to obtain the needed visual effect of such an important performance piece with 2-into-2 pipes. Named the Big Radius and Big Radius Black, both exhausts point out towards the ground and give it that nice, distinctive aftermarket look.
What is even better is that engine performance is improved and that V-Twin will also sing better with an opened throttle. The Big Radius 2-into-2 is the classic style chrome custom while the Black has a bathroom ceramic matt black color which gives it a very distinctive style.
Now, Vance & Hines is not only known for producing supersport exhausts, but for custom motorcycles and, even further, Harely-Davidson.
When being the proud owner of a Yamaha R6 and having too much spare time it is strongly recommended that you jump on your bike and hit the road. What you’ll be trying to avoid is turning your motorcycle into the strange thing posted above.
That is only if not riding withroup of choppers – like this guy apparently does – and trying to weaken your bike’s cornering abilities by mounting a 300mm rear tire together with the rim and swingarm supporting it.
I’m not saying it doesn’t look like a tractor (if that was the plan), but was this really necessary? And we’re not even talking about a Hayabusa.
Everybody is aware of the fact that tuning has made it around the world, Japan being the starting point. Now, each and every year, Japanese aftermarket tuners present their own improved creations with custom paint job and louder, more powerful exhausts.
Through the years, tuners such as Yoshimura, Active, Nojima and Active have individualized themselves from the crowd and get all the recognition as being the best tuning shops back in Japan.
We have such examples in our photo gallery and it is your job to find the intruder. Good Luck!
We’ve had the opportunity to see a couple of modified Hayabusa motorcycles and a longer swingarm or NOS system was nothing out of the ordinary, but when you get a glance of this chromed-up beauty, there’s nothing to take your eyes off it. This mirror of a motorcycle was spotted at the BMF Rally in Peterborough, UK.
When it comes to the number of horsepower on something that goes around powered by a Hayabusa engine the possibilities are hard to imagine and practically endless, but until now there is no naked bike to compare with this Suzuki B-King.
Its 430bhp set is apart from any other motorcycle and get it even closer to its cousin, the Hayabusa, a bike known for its affinity for tuning and especially turbochargers. And this is exactly what this B-King received: a turbo charger. Suddenly, the previously considered impressive 1340cc and 181 hp on the stock look weak and make you think on mounting such a thing on your new bike, but I would recommend you not to if fitted with wife and children. Turbochargers are not good for your marriage!
Roger Allmond is a passionate bike builder who thinks that the standard Rocket ||| is simply not enough for the most demanding of you out there so it practically built a new, lower and shorter bike which retains only the Rocket ||| powerplant.
It doesn’t have a name yet, but with the six months that were required for its building, it definitely has background. Already commissioned by Bennets Insurance, the unique Rocket retains from the original bike the engine and fuel injection system, the wiring and the shaft final drive. It looks radical and futuristic but we reckon that its looks speak for the way it performs.
