    2012 Triumph Speed Triple R – Expensive, But Worthy
    If you are a bike aficionado or even if you are familiar with the nomenclature of bikes you would know that the addition of consonant “R” in the name indicates the race versions. Any bike having R in its name is the race tuned version of its normal version. But while that addition of R in the names of bike has always appealed the hardcore bike fanatics, it also causes some compromises in the bike. In general the compromises that comes with the letter R results in fastidious engine performance, a rigid ride and an ominously sunnier wallet. But the question here is, is it worth buying? And we would say, totally, as a matter of fact almost every time. The Speed Triple model from Triumph Motorcycles characterizes their homecoming to magnificence.

    If you are castrated by riding a scooter having a small-bore, then the Yamaha Zuma 125 is just for you. With its plump, semi-knotty tires, rocky belligerent styling (specifically in black) and sufficient power to take the rider at pace equivalent to any average bike, the 2012 Yamaha Zuma 125 is as mannish as it is reasonable. While most of the scooters are variants of urban themed street-legal scooters, the Zuma 125 emits a lot more audacious brashness with a guise which suggests adventure biking and pace. All that daring spirit of the bike comes from the plump 12-in rim 130/70 rear and 120/70 front enduring tires. The big-diameter bare steel chassis is one styling component for the 2012 Yamaha Zuma 125, which could be attributed for the usage of plastic in the bike by the Yamaha designers.

    2013 Victory Judge: Preview
    With the 2013 Victory Judge, which seems to be inspired by the muscle cars, Victory has deviated from their conventional path of manufacturing touring/bagger rigs, bobber-themed bikes and blingy cruisers such as the new Victory Hard-Ball, which blends bobber with touring and the Victory High-Ball. The all-new 2013 Victory Judge marks a pleasing alteration in the current product offerings from Victory. But even in this new offering the Minnesota-based manufacturer has stuck to the trademark business thinking by offering the brawny Freedom 106/6 50-degree oil/air cooled, V-Twin fuel-injected engine having 6-speed gearbox in their latest motorcycle. The same engine that we’ve seen in many of the Victory bikes in the market is also the source of power for the newly fangled Victory Judge. We’ve jockeyed the Freedom 106/6 on  [...]

    2012 BMW G650GS Sertao : First Ride
    BMW has reintroduced their 650 dual sport single-cylinder motorcycle for model year 2012, which previously was known as the BMW F650GS Dakar. Having its roots back in 1993 and the unique F 650 single-cylinder Funduro, the newly launched G650GS Sertao and G650GS symbolizes the next phase in the fruition of the GS lineup of BMW. Just as the initial model, the newly launched 2012 BMW G650GS Sertao is a tad more than the twin sport, and that’s because it is been aimed directly at the escalating escapade touring sector, and to be more precise the new riders in the adventure touring segment. BMW is hoping that the dual-cylinder F800GS has matched the requirement in past some years, but the increasing demand of a low-priced, even fewer-threatening ADV bike helped ease the comeback of one of our old favorites.
