APRILIA MOTORCYCLE leonardo 500 ditech

Aprilia has shown a new prototype at the Milan Show which demonstrates that they are getting some significant gains from their Direct Injection 2-stroke technology that, until now, we've only seen in a 50cc scooter.

Not so long ago, ever tightening noise and emission laws looked as if they spelt the end of the 2-stroke on our roads. The legendary Aprilia RS250 has already ceased production. However, Aprilia have been fighting back with their DiTech system that produces significantly more power, better fuel economy and better emissions than the equivalent 4-stroke.

It appears that Aprilia have now succeeded in leveraging their DiTech techno into a light and compact 500cc 2-stroke single-cylinder engine producing some stunning performance figures:
- power of 50bhp at 6,500rpm,
- torque of 65Nm at 6,000rpm,
- fuel consumption at 107mpg for the ECE 40 cycle, and 96mpg at 70mph!
And it'll meet the Euro 3 emission laws due in 2006.

It seems the 2-stroke is far from dead.

The prototype on show was a good looking 500cc ultra-light sports scooter that illustrates the increasing convergence of the scooter and motorcycle worlds. It has:
- belt driven Continuously Variable Transmission plus button selected sequential manual,
- frame mounted engine (for less unsprung weight),
- rigid aluminum frame,
- mono shock, single sided swingarm with belt final drive,
- disc brakes front (double) and rear (single),
- front lights from the new RSV Mille, rear LEDs.
- promised luggage, satellite navigation and ABS (anti-lock brake system) options.
- tank range of up to 450 miles,
- top speed of 105mph,
- Standing 1/4 mile in 12.5 seconds (An '02 Yamaha R1 only does it in 11.1 seconds)
- dry weight of only 175kg.

Does all this sound too good to be true? Well, it is only a prototype, but if a production version came anywhere close to these figures, it'll clearly make the opposition obsolete at a stroke (2-stroke at that).

MOTO GUZZI BREVA V1200

Breva – the name of a wind that sends ripples over the surface of Lake Como bringing good weather. This is a name that, two years on from the launch of the Breva V1100, recalls the sheer quality and glorious past of Moto Guzzi. While consolidating the success of the Breva, new technical solutions have been developed and introduced during the MG range renovation project and these modifications have been included in the new Breva V1200.
There are over 60 such changes over the previous 1064cc model. Capacity has been increased by widening the bore from 92 to 95 mm and stroke from 80 to 81.2 mm leading to a new capacity of 1151 cc. New piston rods and pistons are joined by a nitride-treated crankshaft and Nimonic exhaust valves. The engine is lubricated by a lobe pump system and the oil circuitry has been modified to include a special duct carrying cooled oil to the heads for the exhaust valves. The exhaust system has also been modified and now includes double chamber manifolds and a silencer with an integrated catalyser. This has removed the need for the compensator that was on the V1100 where the manifolds met. The result is an engine that provides more power and torque at medium revs and keeps performing all the way to 8000+ rpm. Ultimately, the new engine puts out a hefty 95 horsepower at 7,500 rpm and maximum torque of 100 Nm at 5,800 rpm. Eighty-five percent of the torque is available between 2,300 and 4,800 rpm. The engine uses a specially evolved Marelli Multipoint sequential ECU that takes care of the fuel injection system. A stepper motor and twin spark system, apart from dealing with instant starting, provide smooth power delivery, excellent fuel consumption and low emissions that are well within Euro 3 standards.
Sure-footed, safe, comfortable and stable even at high speed, this naked is, by nature, perfectly suited for high performance riding but can also be docile and versatile making it ideal for all sorts of uses. The Breva V1200 is a hybrid sports/tourer that adapts itself to a rider’s personality and whims and lets us experience once again, the sheer pleasure of riding a machine that is an object of universal admiration. There can be no doubt that the Breva V1200 is exactly what puts Moto Guzzi at the top of the league in terms of riding pleasure.

BUELL MOTORCYCLE LIGHTNING® CITYX XB9SX

Just as a jagged stretch of country or canyon road offers one kind of challenge, a crowded city environment offers another. This urban streetfighter comes fully equipped to handle whatever the big city throws your way, with standard wind deflectors, frame pucks, headlamp grille, and the unique X-Guard to protect the airbox cover from your tank bag. Light, nimble, and aggressive, it’s powered by a 984 cc Thunderstorm® air/oil/fan-cooled, fuel injected 45º V-Twin. Who says a road has to be wide open to be fun?

Responsiveness
Buell Intuitive Response Chassis (IRC)

With its 52-inch wheelbase, the Firebolt handles with surgical precision. The rigid chassis keeps you stable and confident through the turns, while the 21-degree rake and 3.3-inch trail improves agility.
Frame and swing arm

The aluminum frame is both lightweight and incredibly rigid, improving the bike’s stability in corners. Using the frame to house nearly 4 gallons of fuel also lowers the center of gravity, making it feel light and flickable.
Front brake

The Zero Torsional Load (ZTL™) Braking System consists of a 375 mm rotor mounted to the wheel’s perimeter and a 6-piston caliper. When applied, it transfers braking forces (a.k.a. torsional load) directly to the rim instead of through the spokes. Without the need for load-bearing spokes or even a second disc, the bike’s front end weighs in about 6 lbs. lighter than what you’d find on most dual disc set-ups.
Front suspension

The fully adjustable 43 mm Showa® inverted fork features a high performance damping cartridge that lets you adjust the setup for any situation. Whether it’s at the track or the ride home, you can optimize the suspension for excellent feedback and razor sharp handling. When combined with the adjustable rear shock, it’s the most tunable suspension in the business.
Exhaust

Exhaust cans are heavy. It doesn’t make sense to hang them up high and off the back of the bike. Our underslung exhaust – a Buell staple since 1985 – concentrates the weight underneath the chassis to provide greater Mass Centralization. The result is a clean, uncluttered look, improved flickability and superior handling.
Rear suspension

A top-shelf Showa® push shock with a fully adjustable damping cartridge allows you to fine-tune the compression, rebound and preload to maximize handling and feedback for any condition.
Tires

The Pirelli® Scorpion Sync tires combine the best street-sport and off-road tire technology available. The hybrid tire construction delivers all the performance and confidence you need on the street, while providing the traction you need when city streets look more like the back trails.
6 spoke Cast Aluminum Wheels

With braking forces distributed through the entire rim due to the ZTL perimeter mounted brake rotor, the Buell 6-spoke front wheel can be made extremely light. This reduces steering inertia and unsprung weight for better handling on the less-than-perfect streets you’ll ride every day.
Immediate Throttle Response Belt drive

A unique constant-tension pulley eliminates slack in the driveline, resulting in smoother on/off throttle transitions no matter what position the swingarm is in. Clean, quiet and extremely strong, the Veyance Hibrex belt with Flexten Plus technology never needs replacing, maintenance or adjustments of any kind. In addition, it weighs just 1.06 pounds, compared to drive chains that weigh four to five pounds.

Power
984cc Thunderstorm Engine

The Thunderstorm® 984 cc, 45-degree V-Twin delivers the iconic look, thunderous sound, and power-pulsing feel that only a V-Twin engine can offer. Following the style of an American Muscle machine, you can tap into maximum torque in any gear, regardless of where the tach needle is pointing. In fact, you'll find that over 75% of the motor's torque is available at just 3000 RPM. Performance and dependability are enhanced with a large crank pin, a large-capacity oiling system, and an electronic timing system and ECM that control a DDFI 3 fuel injection system. Combined, these features improve drivability and performance while reducing maintenance costs.
Enhanced Air Cooling

As soon as you turn off a motorcycle, the hot oil begins to break down, potentially leading to engine damage. Unless, that is, that motorcycle is a Buell®. The thermostatically controlled fan continues to cool the oil even after you pull the key. It also has you covered if you happen to get stuck in traffic. It’s one more thing we’ve done to keep the Thunderstorm engine primed for top performance.
Uniplanar Mounting System

Using two rubber isolators to reduce unwanted vibration and three tie-bars to inhibit lateral movement, the Uniplanar Isolation Mounting System decreases rider fatigue while contributing to chassis torsional rigidity for improved handling.
A 12 Liter Airbox

The large, 12-liter airbox is designed to optimize air intake and accommodate a large, easy-to-service air filter.

Rider Focused Design
Ergonomics / seating position

Wide bars and naturally positioned footpegs provide great leverage, enabling you to ride confidently and aggressively.
Weight

At just 390 lbs. dry, the XB9SX is extremely lightweight. It feels quick and nimble, effortlessly flicking, swerving and dodging around whatever the road throws your way.
Fairing

A minimal, front flyscreen faring creates a clean, aggressive look.
Footpegs

Located in a comfortable, neutral position, the footpeg placement keeps you upright and positioned perfectly to quickly shift your weight around the bike.
Instrument panel

Clean, simple and made of featherweight magnesium, this classically designed dash features: speedometer, tachometer, odometer, two tripmeters, reserve tripmeter, clock, low fuel light, engine check light, oil pressure warning light, indicator for high beam, turn signals and neutral light.
Handle Bars

A nod to flat-track racers, these wide, flat handlebars are perfect for aggressive street riding. The upright, athletic position offers great communication between rider and machine.
X-Guard

The X-guard provides a great look for this streetfighter while protecting the airbox cover.
Adjustable levers

With rider comfort in mind, Buell features brake and clutch levers that are adjustable for reach.
Durability Features

Standard frame pucks, headlight grille, wind deflectors and X-Guard help prevent costly repairs.

BUELL MOTORCYCLE 1125CR

Introducing the new power-to-weight class leader, the Buell 1125CR. A fearsome blend of superbike performance, sinister styling and wicked attitude, it pushes the boundaries of the naked category. This 21st century, café racer combines a featherweight chassis with a dominating 1125cc liquid-cooled, V-Twin for powerful acceleration in any gear. Add to that its aggressive, sport riding position and precise handling and you’ve got an experience like no other.

Responsiveness
Buell Intuitive Response Chassis (IRC)

The Intuitive Response Chassis (IRC) is the stiffest we’ve ever built, resulting in a bike that’s better able to hold a line with minimal flexing or bending. Constructed of lightweight aluminum, it responds to aggressive riding with precision and predictability, delivering an unprecedented amount of rider feedback, regardless of road conditions.
Frame and swing arm

A new longer cast-aluminum swing arm design optimizes the suspension geometry with the lower final drive gearing. Its pivot shaft is carried in the engine cases to create a stiff connection between the rear wheel and the rest of the chassis. Slider bobbin added to the swingarm for protection and use of a rear stand.
Fuel Capacity

With 5.3 gallons of fuel contained in the frame, as near to the center of mass as possible, the rider is able to spend more time on the road enjoying the 1125CR’s precision handling and less time at the fuel pump.
Front brake

Buell Zero Torsional Load (ZTL²) front brake utilizes a four-pad, eight-piston caliper inspired by the XBRR race motorcycle. A single 375mm rotor mounts directly to the rim producing outstanding stopping power. The caliper casting was optimized for torsional stiffness, yielding a more progressive and connected braking feel to the rider. The rim-mounted design eliminates the need for load-bearing spokes or even a second disc, resulting in a front end assembly that is significantly lighter than competitive designs.
Front suspension

To match the stiffness of the main chassis, the 1125CR uses a fully adjustable 47 mm Showa® inverted fork, contributing to superior feel and greater feedback. Spring rates and damping are optimized for agility and responsiveness.
Exhaust

Exhaust cans are heavy. It doesn’t make sense to hang them up high and off the back of the bike. Our underslung exhaust – a Buell staple since 1985 – concentrates the weight underneath the chassis to provide greater Mass Centralization. The result is a clean, uncluttered look, improved flickability and superior handling. The 1125CR exhaust system features a large-volume muffler tuned to produce a linear horsepower and torque curve.
Rear suspension

The fully adjustable, piggyback-style Showa® monoshock lets you fine-tune the ride for your weight and riding style. Linklessly mounted to a pivot point placed forward on the engine case, it enhances rigidity while reducing squat during hard acceleration.
Tires

Pirelli® Diablo Corsa III tires feature a three-zone compound for optimum street and track use.
Rear Brake

The rear brakes utilize a two-piston caliper and a 240mm stainless steel rotor. The caliper is mounted directly to the inner surface of the swing arm, hidden from view. The caliper weighs 1.5 pound less than a typical carrier-equipped rear caliper system, reducing unsprung weight and complexity.
Steel Braided Brake Lines

Both rear and front brakes are fitted with steel braided brake lines for a better correlation of lever pressure to brake pressure resulting in improved brake feel.
6 spoke Cast Aluminum Wheels

With braking forces distributed through the entire rim due to the ZTL perimeter mounted brake rotor, the Buell 6-spoke front wheel can be made extremely light. This reduces steering inertia and unsprung weight for better handling on the less-than-perfect streets you’ll ride every day.
Immediate Throttle Response Belt drive

A unique constant-tension pulley eliminates slack in the driveline, resulting in smoother on/off throttle transitions no matter what position the swingarm is in. Clean, quiet and extremely strong, the Veyance Hibrex belt with Flexten Plus technology never needs replacing, maintenance or adjustments of any kind. In addition, it weighs just 1.06 pounds, compared to drive chains that weigh four to five pounds.

Power
1125 Helicon Engine

A Buell exclusive, the powerful Buell Helicon® 1125cc, 72-degree, liquid-cooled, V-Twin engine.
1125cc

Most powerful Buell street engine to date. By not compromising to conform with a race class spec, 1125cc’s gives this engine the right bore and stroke combination to deliver superbike power: 146 Hp. and 82 ft/lbs of torque, with a redline of 10,500 RPM. The broad powerband and seamless torque curve generates hard and fast acceleration from anywhere on the RPM range.
72 degree V-Twin

The look, sound, and feel of a V-Twin engine deliver the character and superior ride experience you expect on a Buell. The 72-degree V-angle creates a compact, efficiently packaged engine and allows additional weight to be distributed to the front of the bike. It also allows for inclusion of an optimum downdraft fuel intake system, thereby lowering the height of the center of gravity as well.
103.3 mm Bore & 67.5 mm Stroke low inertia flywheel

A big bore, short stroke and light flywheel deliver complete power and quick-revving performance.
Finger-Follower Valve Lifters

The Buell Helicon motor's valves are actuated with finger followers and adjusted with shims. Derived from F-1 race technology, finger follower valve actuation reduces friction and permits a quicker valve opening due to reduced weight. Shim replacement is quick and easy due to the unique follower retention system.
Closed loop fuel injection system, DDFI3 EFI 61mm dual throttle bodies

Immediate throttle response in any environment is delivered by the Helicon motor’s closed loop FI system. It provides constant feedback to the ECU based on environment and ensures an efficient mixture control system, resulting in smoother throttle operation and better fuel economy. The 61mm dual throttle bodies allow for superior air intake and optimum engine performance.
Dual Overhead cams with self adjusting chain drive; 4 Valves

The single-cam-per-cylinder chain drive contributes to the engine’s compact design. The intake cam drive is driven by the chain while the exhaust cam is gear driven. It requires less space over the cylinder head than a three-sprocket design, reduces weight and allows the engine to be located in an optimum, forward position.
Magnesium Valve Covers

Durable and lightweight, the magnesium valve covers are another example of how Buell is able to keep the overall weight of the motorcycle extremely low.
Primary balancing with three internal shafts

The dry sump improves power by increasing efficiency, while the integrated oil reservoir at the lower left side of engine keeps the engine compact and fluids low, contributing to mass centralization.
Twin Side-Mounted Radiator Cowlings

Twin radiators are mounted longitudinally within aerodynamic cowlings. The position of the radiator system allows the engine to be positioned forward in the chassis, creating a more optimal weight distribution from front to rear. In addition, the position of the cowlings captures free-flowing air, driving airflow into the cowlings (and away from the rider), directing the air for more efficient engine cooling.
Dry Sump Oiling with integrated oil reservoir located in the lower crankcase

The dry sump improves power by increasing efficiency, while the integrated oil reservoir at the lower left side of engine keeps engine compact and fluids low, contributing to mass centralization.
Compensated Front Sprocket

By placing the compensation function in the transmission output sprocket rather than the wheel sprocket, unsprung weight is reduced, helping to improve handling.
Camshafts

The single-cam-per-cylinder chain-drive contributes to the engine’s compact design. The intake cam drive is driven by the chain while the exhaust cam is gear-driven. It requires less space over the cylinder head than a three-sprocket design, reduces weight and allows the engine to be located further forward.
6-Speed, close-ratio transmission

With lowered final-drive gearing for hard acceleration, the six-speed, close-ratio transmission provides the rider the right gear on any ride and any situation.
Oblique stacked transmission configuration

The Helicon powertrain stacks the primary and secondary drives to yield a more compact overall design. This increases front weight distribution to aid in anti-squat and improve suspension response. It also allows Buell engineers to design a forward placement of swing arm pivot, providing room for a longer swing arm and better overall handling.
Hydraulic Vacuum Assist (HVA) slipper -action clutch

The smooth clutch lever effort and slipper-like action mechanism reduces engine braking during hard deceleration and enhances the overall rider experience.
A 12 Liter Air box

The large, 12-liter airbox is designed to optimize air intake and accommodate a large, easy-to-service air filter.
Ram Air System

Using computational fluid dynamics to optimize the air flow, the RAM air system pressurizes the air box for a performance gain at speeds over 80 mph.

Rider Focused Design
Ergonomics / seating position

With relaxed footpegs and a short reach to the bars, the riding position is versatile, accommodating both an upright stance and an aggressive lean into the bike.
Weight

At just 375 lbs. dry, the 1125CR is the lightest streetfighter in its class. It feels quick and nimble, effortlessly flicking, swerving and dodging around whatever the road throws your way.
Fairing

The sinister gaze of the 1125CR hints at what’s to come when the stoplight turns green. The minimalist flyscreen gives the pilot a full view of the urban course ahead. Radical headlamps are blended into the fairing, giving the bike a purposeful stare.
Footpegs

The footpeg placement keeps you in an aggressive riding stance to optimize your ability to quickly shift your weight around the bike while still allowing for a comfortable body position that reduces weight and pressure on your hands.
Instrument panel

The instrument cluster with ODIS (On-Board Diagnostic Information System) is cradled in a lightweight, magnesium module. Compact and easy to read both day and night, the LED screen has a wide 50-degree viewing angle and features a service code display, security system with immobilizer, lap timer and splits, gear indicator, two trip odometers, ambient air temperature, and more.
Tail Section

The rear section is clean and sleek with a passenger seat hidden under an easily removable cowling.
Handle Bars

Clubman-style handlebars harken back to the days when café racers prowled the city streets. Aggressive, yet comfortable, they offer the rider superior control with a touch of style.
LED Turn signals

Front turn signals are incorporated into the aerodynamic mirror housing making it easier for other drivers to see where you’re going.
Adjustable levers

With rider comfort in mind, Buell features brake and clutch levers that are adjustable for reach. Foot controls (brake and shifter) feature toe pegs that adjust to rider foot size.
Durability Features

The side-mounted radiators and outer covers are designed to absorb an impact and minimize repair costs.
Convenience Features

Tie-down hooks on the tail section make it easy to secure extra gear.
