BMW HP4 Continue Its Legacy
BMW , the well known car and bike manufacturer just go with good momentum when launch HP4 model that continuing HP or HIGH PERFOMANCE model introduced in 2005. For information, the previous model for HP is HP2 Enduro, HP2 Megamoto, and HP2 Sport.
This 4 cylinder most lightweight and dynamic bike ever and will make the bike lover feels to have it. This bike have similar view to S1000RR model in back ( back lamp and front (head lamp) view. While the engine powered by 999cc 139hp, this bike can sprint from 0 to 100km/h in just less than 3 seconds. Dont say about the top speed, surely it can hit 200km/h easily and speedometer will keep increasing the speed number as the throttle still open. However, fuel consumption is just good. Cruising about 110-120km/h just use less than 6 litre of fuel in 100km.
BMW HP4 also provide new electronic system that called Controller Area Network or CAN that controlled many link of parts, engine and anti-thief system. To make it more user friendly comfortable to its user, the suspension is just upgrade with Dynamic Damping Control or DCC that help user in many various type of riding style and road surface. This system directly link to Rain, Sport, Race, and Slick mode selection. Another is Race ABS system and Dynamic Traction Control will help rider more aggresive in track and more confident on the road in wet or dry tarmac surface.

SBK 2009 - Losail Superpole Highlights
WSBK come again in their second event of this season. This time , held on Losail track.
After had a good time at qualigying and got a bad luck at race session, Aprilia make it well again. Proven that they have a sesious target in WSBK. Aprilia rider Max Biaggi make it 3rd place from 28 rider position. And , looks like this season will be YAMAHA season when this team again make a good achievement. Ben Spies from Yamaha Team make a surprise again when he make the fastest lap 1'58.886 with his Yamaha R1 just a second less than Max Biaggi who ride his Aprilia RSV4.
However, not all team make it nice. Maybe a bad race for Alstare Suzuki when they cant even be in top 5 or top 10 ranking. After qualifying session, the best position from this team is 16th place . No 71 rider, Kagayama from JAPAN with Suzuki GSX-R 1000 K9 make his best lap 2'00.264 and followed by his team mate no 76 Neukirchner from GERMAN 2'00.345.
They need quick inspection to solve this problem.

New Kawasaki ZX6 2009 Spec ( Onboard Lap Indluded )



The 2009 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R was unveiled at the Kawasaki Dealer Show in Texas this weekend. Team Green's supersport contender comes with a long list of improvements including a 22-lb weight reduction, improved bottom-end to mid-range power and racy ZX-10R-inspired bodywork to a paddock near you.
Use of lighter materials like magnesium case covers, lighter camshafts, lighter starter and a few minor weight saving treatments combine to pare away a few pounds. More importantly is that Kawasaki says they have made significant improvements to both bottom end and midrange power while smoothing out the delivery by implementing a couple tuner tricks to improve 'combustion efficiency'. The application of the 'double bore velocity stacks' is supposed to specifically help with midrange power as well. By incorporating a stack within a stack it should provide the benefits of multiple length stacks without employing variable length technology or some variation thereof. It will still utilize a slipper clutch and cassette-style 6-speed transmission. If these changes provide the significant boost that Kawi claims then it will address one of the issues we had with the 2007-2008 Ninja ZX-6R.
The previous ZX-6 was the heaviest of the current crop of Japanese super sports so we expect it to tip the scales at the 380-lb range, without fuel if the numbers pan out as advertised. A low-slung exhaust system, which locates the pre-chamber underneath the bike, will keep weight low and centralized.
Changes to the chassis include a 2-piece aluminum subframe that is narrow and light, a revised ram air intake casting that doubles as the support for gauges and mirrors in an effort to further reduce weight. Showa's new Big Piston Front (BPF) 41mm fork features a large-diameter internal piston, which is supposed to reducing the effects of damping pressure and eliminating the heavier internals found in cartridge-style forks. Kawasaki says this will improve frontend feel and decreasing turn-in effort. In addition to the new fork, steering geometry is altered significantly. This year the ZX features 24-degree rake and 4-inches of trail compared to 25-degree and 4.3-inches on the 07-08 model. Quicker steering, lighter weight and more power could put the 6R back in the hunt in the middleweight class comparisons. The same Ohlins steering stabilizer from the ZX-10 has found a home on the ZX-6R.
Kawasaki made it very important that the company's commitment to racing is an important part of the plan so expectations are high for the 2009 Ninja ZX-6R. It will be available in Lime Green, Metallic Black, Candy Blue, Flat Black and in Monster graphics with an MSRP of $9,799.
Engine: Four-stroke, liquid-cooled, DOHC, four valves per cylinder, inline-four
