Yamaha Fazer 250

When I first saw the Yamaha Scorpio implied negative questions about this 220cc bike. Is this bike made worthy flagship product Yamaha Indonesia? Seen from the department responsible model when compared with its competitors. When paired with Honda Tiger Revo, Scorpio looks less muscular. When competed with pride products Indonesia Kawasaki, Ninja 150 with easy to either KO Scorpio performance and appearance. Even after the birth of "sister" V-Ixion is all the more innovative Scorpio fate unclear. Perhaps it is the destiny for the Scorpio to be a product to fill the gaps pensiunya Yamaha TZM or post RZR.

Yamaha now predict will bring Fazer 250 to replace the "responsibility" Scorpio. Products that will be flagship Yamaha Indonesia comes with engine capacity of 250cc. Views motor cruiser which was adapted from Yamaha Brazil looks so thick, especially when viewed from the side and rear. At first glance similar to the Honda CBF 250 fellow Japanese rival.

Fazer 250 is the most superior

Compared to Yamaha Fazer 250, Bajaj Pulsar and Honda Tiger Revo please step aside. Maybe it sounds so arrogant. But there it is, Fazer has a larger engine capacity of all things is superior when compared with the Pulsar and Tiger Revo. In terms of external appearance, design kerapihan obvious variant of this smallest Fazer family. External appearance imply an aura so powerful motors true street fighter. Fazer fuel tank capacity of 250 liters of 19.2 was reached even greater than the capacity of the tank "king street fighter" Ducati Monster. Monster S4R has a 1000cc capacity gasoline tank can only hold 17.5 liters. Fazer weights only 134 pounds is the lightest compared to Tiger Revo, let alone reach the pulsar is 140kg, even when compared to European sports bike though Mito Fazer still weighs 1kg lighter. One only drawback is absenya Fazer rear disc brakes. When the motor has been using this Monoshock suspension has 22 hp power and 20nm of torque at 6500 rpm. Should the problem of gasoline consumption did not seem to matter to consumers capacity above 200cc motorcycles. The question is lived when Yamaha will release this ultimate light cruiser and at what price? Because if the berries for about 22 or 23 million dollars per unit is guaranteed Yamaha Fazer 250 will "kill" rival sainganya especially Tiger Revo and Bajaj Pulsar. Given the support for non-technical factors such as image and after sales service network of owned Yamaha same can be said strongly with those of Honda.

Performance Fazer 250

Fazer 250 acceleration is similar to the Tiger Revo and Fazer but Bajaj Pulsar 250 has a top speed 145 km / h or higher 15 km / h compared to Bajaj Pulsar 180 DTSi. This is supported by several factors such as Fazer empty weight of only 134 kg, measure tire tread Fazer wider than his rival and engine capacity greater maximum besar.Tenaga Fazer 250 is 22hp at 7500 rpm and maximum torque is 20nm that can be achieved on lap 6500 rpm. The advantage of the large torque obtained at high engine rotation means Yamaha Fazer 250 can bermanufer swiftly on medium speed between 50 to 80 km / hour. An ideal conditions when the motor is used in the traffic density is in desperate need of capital, labor and big torque at high engine rotation. Conversely, if for use in travel Fazer 250 has a riding position is very ideal because such a motor cruiser and street fighter in general, has a high central Grafity but do not have to make a down position so that motorists do not quickly make you tired. Tire size 130/70 x 18 has a wide footprint adds stability so that the capacity of 250cc motorcycles had to explore this as a wet pavement or slippery. Actually Honda Tiger Revo and Bajaj Pulsar 180 DTSi is not equivalent to the opposite Fazer 250. Because proper confronted with Fazer 250 Honda VTR 250, CBF 250 or Bajaj Pulsar 220 DTSi.

Triumph Street Triple R

Triumph's Street Triple R is a fantastically versatile sporting package with one of our favorite engines of all time. It's an elemental motorcycle but with major-league performance built in, and its fun-to-ride quotient is sky high, earning our MoBo Motorcycle of the Year for 2009.

Triumph had a good thing going when it unveiled the sweet Street Triple 675, a pared-down streetfighter version of the beloved Daytona 675 sportbike. The Street Triple’s finest feature is its soul-stirring three-cylinder engine that boasts a broad powerband and a symphonic exhaust note. The motor, re-tuned from the Daytona, has a predictable but powerful output that makes it accessible and unintimidating to riders of all skill levels yet is satisfying for even the saltiest veterans. Comfortable ergos – including a reasonably low seat height – and an eminently toss-able nature made it a staff darling, but we were a little disappointed it had some bargain-minded bits to keep the retail figure low.

But like a dream come true, the Street Triple R was introduced just last year, replete with the Daytona’s up-spec fully adjustable suspension and potent radial-mount Nissin brake calipers, alleviating all of our concerns. The result is an invigorating and versatile roadster that stickers for less than $10K. Lofting the front wheel is a snap, and before you know it you’ll be drifting out the back end like an inspired Brit hooligan. And on your favorite twisty back road, its friendly yet potent character is almost unbeatable, proving that no one really needs triple-digit horsepower peaks. Now that Triumph perfected the Street in our eyes, it became the perfect Standard. And it's our favorite motorcycle of 2009.

Bajaj Pulsar 180 DTSi: 2009

Back in June 2002, the very first Bajaj Pulsar 180 TV commercial sent a shockwave through the biking community in India leaving all bikers wondering what the new Pulsar would be. Enter 2009 - the fourth generation Pulsar 180 DTSi is an entirely new motorcycle. Do not mistake it to be a mere cosmetic upgrade as she packs in some serious new equipment within its frame. Already a market leader in the premium motorcycle segment in India, Bajaj Auto's latest assault in the form of the 2009 Pulsar Edition promises to keep the company perched on top of the performance bike segment.

Looks & Built:

Before we get into the technical nitty-gritty's of the new bike, one critical improvement needs to be mentioned. The overall quality of parts on this new breed of bikes from the Pune-based bike-maker has improved significantly compared to the first generation Pulsars. The plastics, fittings and other cycle parts have a sturdy feel to them and the new Pulsar is definitely a well-put-together motorcycle. However, the finish on certain parts like indicator holders and the side panel locks could have been better. Once the sight reaches the trademark Pulsar fuel-tank, first thing you notice is the addition of tank shrouds that it borrows from the bigger Pulsar 200 DTSi. Couple that to the beefy 37mm front telescopic suspension (borrowed from the Bajaj Auto's flagship product, the Pulsar 220 DTS-Fi) and what you get is a more aggressive-streetfighter-like Pulsar 180 "Ditsy".

Powertrain:

The new Pulsar retains the same five-speed gearbox from the earlier models albeit with minor changes to the gear ratios. The gearing has been shortened a bit and the first gear feels very short. The Bajaj R&D has focused on improving mid-range and ride ability of the new Pulsar which gives it a strong punchy feel from 3Ks all the way up to the redline at 9,500rpm. The gearshifts are slick and precise with each gear change giving that confident feel of the gear getting slot in harmony. The roll-ons directly benefit from the Pulsar's added power and torque as slotted in 5th cog - the bike did the 30-70km/h dash in remarkable 9.23 seconds.

Ride & Feel:

The ergonomics on the new Pulsar 180 too have been altered to complete the new bike's sporty appeal. The view from the seat also gets more lively and spirited with the white-dial digital console and the clip-on handlebars from the 220. The clip-on's really make for a sporty riding posture just adequate enough to do spirited riding but they will not be uncomfortable in the stop-and-go city traffic. The split-seat from the bigger Pulsars further adds to the new bike's charm. But as mentioned earlier, there is a lot more to the new Pulsar 180, than what meets the eye. The wheelbase is increased by 25mm (from 1320mm to 1345mm) while sharing the handling duties with the double-downtube chassis is the oval-section swingarm taken from the Pulsar 200/220 inventory.

The fatter swingarm and well-tuned suspension have added great amount of stability and handling dexterity to the Pulsar 180, making it an extremely well-balanced motorcycle in its class. Old Pulsar-owners will agree that the earlier generation Pulsars felt twitchy through corners and lacked high-speed stability. But this new bike feels completely different altogether when tackling corners. She tips in with precision and holds the line with utmost conviction. Thanks to the beefy forks from the 220, mid-corner stability is unbelievably good and attacking the long sweeping corners at full whack is a breeze.

Motor & Might:

Unlike the norm with bike-makers in India, Bajaj Auto has actually given this new Pulsar 180 additional firepower to go with its rekindled spirit. The 178cc motor has been tuned further and it now makes 17.02PS of power at 8,500rpm. The performance-centred tuning on the new Pulsar 180 makes it one of the quickest bike's off-the-line in its class. The bike weighs two kilograms less than the Pulsar 200 DTSi but also makes marginally less power - however, in terms of performance she manages to post times comparable to the 200. During our test for the 0-60km/h run she posted an acceleration time of 4.64 seconds and the 100km/h mark came in just 14 seconds. Very impressive!

Living with it:

Staying true to its sporty roots and stylish aura, the fourth generation Pulsar 180 does away with the kick lever and the heel-toe gear shifter seen on the earlier models too gets trashed for a sportier toe-shift lever. The fatter MRF rubber too comes directly from the larger Pulsars and gives the 180 a much planted feel, though the increased contact patch coupled with extra weight does require a little more effort to corner the new 180 than its earlier variants. Fuel efficiency is not great but just enough as the fatter rubber and increased mass does affect the over fuel consumption of the new Pulsar. In our tests, the 180 returned us an overall fuel efficiency figure of 54.3kmpl, which is not great, but if you consider the performance and the additional power, it is quite a respectable figure.

Verdict:

All in all it's a very good effort from Bajaj Auto to capitalize on the Pulsar lineage and strengthen the Pulsar brand even more. Priced also very very competitively, at Rs. 62,890 (Ex-showroom, Pune), this sort of an upgrade to the original top end Pulsar is only good news for its very many fans. Though better would be the launch news of the new Pulsar 200 and the flagship Pulsar in the pipeline.
