For that reason now the mark of Mattighofen sends a limited edition of the EXC to remember this triumph.

One of the manufacturers with more important motorcycles of the world have presented its last and more novel creation in the last day, in a frame of great expectation not only on the part of the fanatics of the company but also `by all the interested in acquiring a vehicle of this type to a reasonable price, since one is the cheap motorcycle the more in the history of the company.

Having like context the strong world-wide economic crisis that has splashed to all the industries, the denominated Sportster Iron leaves to the market 883, only days after the Harley Davidson COmpany announced to the public its cut in group with 1,100 dismissals and one slope of 30% of its benefits in the 2008 with respect to previous years, so they hope that this newness can reactivate the market in some way.

The main characteristic of the new Sportster, like is outstanding from the same manufacturers, is the strong predominance of the black color, they have called reason why it like arisen from the heart of the same dark, in a tone that has generated critics quite positive, and more considering than this vehicle already it adjusts to some of the cuts that the company has proposed for this season.

The director of Marketing research from Harley-Davidson, Mark-Hans Richer, assured that with this launching they glide to defy to motorcycles of more important segments to a much more accessible price, although confirmed that according to the forecasts that they have in the company, in spite of his efforts, the demand he will fall in all the 2009 around 10% with respect to the previous year.

Piaggio show us this new update of the Scooter Carnaby, calling it Carnaby Cruiser 300 IE. that now it mounts already the well-known motor Quasar from Piaggio in its version 300. The first thing that calls attention is the new design of the instrument board, now, but of the style “handlebars and clocks” that completely careened of the previous edition.

Just as the frontal, that incorporates a divided grid that is displaced the light again to the handlebars. Light that includes “cerquillo” chromed that gives a classic line him but to the previous motorcycle against but the modern one. Visually the motorcycle seems much more retro that previous Carnaby 250.

In the mechanical part it is where we found the following newness, including now the motor Piaggio Quasar 300 that already we have seen in Super Vespa GTS 300. The piston displacement follows in 278 cc and 22.5 are credited 7250 CB to rpm with 23 a motor pair of 6000 Nm to rpm.

Just a little bit but and better given than the previous motor of 250 cc. The fuel tank is able to take 9.5 liters of which 2 are the reserve, and so the awaited autonomy is in 330 km almost 3.5 liters to 100 km, although in the official specifications they say that the motorcycle makes 2.7 liters to 100 60 km to Km/h.

In the middle of the 80s, Yamaha looked for ideas to develop a model that allowed it to penetrate with force in the mighty American market. For it they commanded to a Japanese equipment that, surprised, it attended a race of dragsters, a sport totally unknown in a country in which its prioritizes are the agility and manageability against the brute force.

The spectacular models that saw there were the germ of a motorcycle that would mix the concepts custom and to dragster like never had been made until the moment, and that basically never became to make at least with as much success and success. That motorcycle was the mythical V-Max, that became first of a new segment, “muscle bikes”. Its design was so spectacular and its so stratospheric benefits that they almost went ahead a quarter of century to its time, and good sample of it is that Yamaha has had to hope 24 years to find a worthy heiress it: The new beast V-Max 1700. Yes, we have had to wait for long time but I assure to you that it has been worth the pain.
