New Bimota DB8 - innovative and unique design
Bimota DB8 Competitor Cheap Motor Sport Ducati Streetfighter
Bimota officially launched as a competitor tight DB8 Ducati Streetfighter. With a 1198 cc engine two-seater, Bimota DB8 touted as a lower-priced motor sport.
Bimota DB8 off the price of 23,000 Euros. This makes DB8 banderole into kategosi entry-level motor sport.
DB8 appreciated even more expensive than its predecessor DB7 the dibanderol 26,000 Euro. Therefore, the Italian motorcycle company that set targets would be sold DB8 among lovers of motor sport.
Bimota consumers struck by motor sport that offers innovative and unique design of the new powers for their use with their wives or girlfriends but with cheaper prices.
Lower price is because DB8 uses plastic instead of carbon for the bodywork. Besides exhaust also selected from titanium instead of steel. While the chassis is made of aluminum instead of carbon serperti on DB7.
1198 cc engine cooling liquid used as an energy source that can reach 125 kW at 9750 rpm with maximum torque of 131.4 Nm at 8000 rpm. This power is greater 8bhp and 6lb-ft than the DB7.
For the legs, Bimota chose suspension Marzocchi USD forks DLC fully adjustable in front, and Extreme Tech Monoshock fully adjustable at the back.
Meanwhile, after holding lap-sized tires Dunlop 120/70 ZR17 front output, selected Brembo brake 320 mm dual four-piston. For measuring wheel is wrapped with 190/55 ZR17 Dunlop tires, 2 piston Brembo brakes ready for braking.
New Cagiva V-Raptor Specifications
Review Cagiva V-Raptor | Specifications
When I got back V-Raptor 650 (check our reviews Cagiva's commuter with attitude) to importers Italmoto from Germiston in Gauteng, I was lucky enough to get a quick spin on a brother larger, V-Raptor 1000 powered by the rip - snorted 996cc V-twin out of the canyon carver Suzuki TL1000.
This is the proposition altogether more serious was established in Cagiva broadly replicated fashion airbox and short, fat tailpipes carbon. This provides 82kW of trampling and speak with authority.
98x66mm twin very interesting from around 3000rpm but the steps up to the cam when the tacho needle points straight up at seven and got a little out of hand for the big city traffic
This is the proposition altogether more serious.
. Opportunity to use so much less power and far between in the urban maze.
Raptor is a great out of place as a pit-bull on a poodle parlors in the city and the need to keep your right hand for smooth movement speed urban law on the door, thanks to slam the jerkiness common to most fuel injection systems on small throttle openings.
But given the gap, or a highway to play with, and it will show you what a big twin is all about - instant, the response effort and eye-compression acceleration. This will hit the 220 mile (do not ask me where) with at least 30 others arrived. Above 8000rpm motor obviously got vibratious; this, after all, the rigid mount-liter twin-class and shaky real vee fashion is part of the riding experience.
As noted above 650 (and Aprilia's RS250), the gearbox on Suzuki motorcycles sold by companies other marques far more stringent than those that gathered for himself
Motor steady as a rock.
. In one liter Raptor's weight changes and solid, down clutchless shifts unless revs high. Even then they are less than perfect, pretty well, then, that the clutch light, positive and abuse-proof - it will get used a lot.
Muscular motor depends on the trellis frame where the first sight look very similar to that of the 650 but neatly combining the three point mount to compensate for unequal expansion coefficient of steel and aluminum - is necessary because the engine is at the top of the mountain ahead of the cylinder head in the crankcase.
The rest is basically the same grille as on a smaller bike and it was a tribute to the health of the design that will handle more than 80kW, without tying itself in knots.
Frame a little wider to accommodate larger motors; all that good as a larger bike has a better pilot seat does not put more pressure on the buttocks. The pillion, however, is the same soft little hump where a lady friend politely refused to lie down.
Suspension is the same with a smaller engine with spring rates and damping is adjusted with the extra weight. The only adjustment for preload on the rear Monoshock Sachs; you up 43mm inverted Marzocchi-downies out of their way, which is very good.
Motor steady as a rock, even more than 200km / h, and have less tendency to shake my head at full tilt upchanges than his brother. This is possible because the geometry a bit more conservative - I suspect most dedicated to trying to keep the front wheels on the tar. This also does not work with the same agility, because some drivers more more conservative.
The brakes are the same as the 650, although with about 10% more mass to haul in a company required to stop squeezing. Because the feedback through the lever is not so precise, even with braided stainless brake lines, and easier to lock the front wheels in 1000.
A neat little screen in these photographs is unique to SA. It was designed by and made for Marco Liberatore of local importers. Remarkably, it was held by no more than six patches of Velcro each no bigger than a large postage stamp because actually instill a stronger push into place faster you ride.
Big V-Raptor takes more skill to ride than the younger more relaxed. It's a big and serious muscular engine and will provide XJRs Bandit and the world that kicked in the right hands. But more than that, it'll take you out on Twisties on Sunday morning and stayed with the race-replica of the corner of your favorites.
Do not be fooled: odd styling under a motorcycle very competent.
V-Raptor 1000 imported by Italmoto from Germiston, Gauteng and the cost of R77 000.
