New BMW S1000RR Image
The BMW S1000RR is a super bike manufactured by BMW Motorrad to compete in the 2009 Superbike World Championship.[2] It was introduced in Munich on 16 April 2008, and is powered by a 999 cc (61.0 cu in) inline-4 engine redlined at 14,200 rpm.
Making 193bhp and 83lb/ft of torque, the 2010 BMW S1000RR is the most powerful 1000cc production bike on the market. More importantly, weighing 183kg dry and 204kg fully fueled, it also has the best power-to-weight ratio. Troy Corser just took the wraps off the production BMW S1000RR in Monza, the bike will go on sale in most markets, including the US, in January. �We are confident that we will be able to start the Superbike World Championship next year with a convincing all-round package, and that our series motorcycle will be just as convincing,� said Hendrik von Kuenheim, a 20-year veteran of BMW and now the General Director of BMW�s motorcycle division. �In both terms of both its technology and price, our Supersports will be absolutely competitive.�

Various Ducati Multistrada 620 Image
Ducati Multistrada burst on to the motorcycling scene and in some ways redefined versatility and performance, and offered a true alternative to traditional, focused motorcycles. For once there was a bike that could genuinely have the title of being an all-round motorcycle, capable of tackling mild off-road terrain and being a reasonably competent track machine, despite being predominately a road bike.
The Multistrada was designed for (and on) the legendary �Futa Pass� that sits not too far from the Bologna factory. A twisty mountain road that has straights punctuated by all sort of corners from fast open sweeping bends to tight hairpin like turns. It is a favorite haunt of all the local riders on sports bikes. The Mutistrada was designed with this road firmly in mind. Basically, the bike is a combination of two completely different types of motorcycles, the �big dual sport� and pure sport bikes. It incorporates the key characteristics of both, the comfort and versatility of the dual sports, plus the precise handling and engine power of the traditional race-styled sport bike.

Ducati Sport 1000 Pictures 2010
Powering the bike is the 1000 DS engine, the most advanced, most powerful Ducati air-cooled engine ever. The Sport1000 takes its inspiration from the tangerine yellow 1973 Ducati 750 Sport and has the look of a classic lightweight single-seat cafe racer. The publicity says "tangerine yellow", but the original colour went by the name "gallo fly". It uses a two valve 1000DS motor with twin stacked exhaust pipes on the right hand side in a 1,425 mm (56.1 in) wheelbase, trellis tube frame. Suspension is a fully-adjustable single Sachs rear shock on the left hand side and non-adjustable 43 mm Marzocchi front forks.
HONDA hasn't shared similar success with its various hybrid automobiles as cross-town rival Toyota, despite the fact that the two Japanese automakers introduced their first gasoline/electric models around the same time. The reasons for the sales disparity are many and varied, and at least due in part to the design of Honda Integrated Motor Assist drivetrain, which doesn't quite match the level of sophistication and fuel mileage of Toyota's Hybrid Synergy Drive.Still, Honda is pushing forward with the next generation of its IMA system, and it will be added to larger, thirstier models within the next three years or so. The last time Honda put a hybrid powertrain in a larger car, the results were more than a little disappointing with the Accord Hybrid failing to meet sales or efficiency expectations. As such, it will be interesting to see how Honda improves the upsized hybrid system and whether it will be enough to compete with the likes of Toyota, Ford and General Motors.
In somewhat related news, Honda is apparently still working on diesel engines, though apparently not for the U.S. market. According to Tomohiko Kawanabe, chief operating officer of automobile research and development at Honda, "If you want to compete in markets like India, and also Europe, (a small diesel engine) is necessary."

Sambut musim mudik dan lebaran, Honda siagakan bengkel darurat di jalur mudik
Menyambut musim mudik dan perayaan Idul Fitri tahun ini, PT Honda Prospect Motor (HPM) kembali mengadakan program layanan bagi konsumen Honda yang mengadakan perjalanan mudik dengan mobilnya.
Melalui program “Honda Emergency Service”, Honda menyiagakan bengkel darurat di titik-titik rawan jalur mudik yang dilengkapi dengan “Honda Service Car” serta bengkel di dealer resmi Honda yang tersebar di beberapa kota besar di Indonesia. Program ini ditujukan untuk melayani pelanggan yang mengalami masalah dengan kendaraannya selama perjalanan.
“Honda Emergency Service” atau yang disebut sebagai kampanye “Honda Siaga” dimulai tanggal 9 – 20 Oktober 2007, dimana Honda menyiagakan 43 bengkel siaga Honda, yang terdiri dari 12 bengkel siaga 24 jam dan 31 bengkel di dealer resmi Honda yang beroperasi selama jam kerja di sepanjang jalur mudik dan beberapa kota besar di Indonesia. Jumlah ini meningkat dibanding tahun lalu, dimana Honda menyiapkan 35 bengkel siaga.
Berbicara dalam acara peluncuran New Odyssey sekaligus buka puasa bersama yang diadakan di Rumah Daksa, Kebayoran Lama, Jakarta, Yukihiro Aoshima, President Director PT HPM menjelaskan bahwa program “Honda Emergency Service” telah menjadi agenda tahunan Honda untuk menyambut musim libur Lebaran. “Dengan jumlah bengkel yang lebih banyak pada tahun ini, kami harap customer Honda dapat menikmati perjalanan mudik mereka dengan lebih aman dan nyaman,” kata Aoshima.
Sementara itu, Jonfis Fandy, Marketing & After Sales Service Director PT HPM mengatakan bahwa program ini dikhususkan untuk pelayanan darurat bagi konsumen Honda yang mobilnya mengalami masalah di perjalanan. “Kami tentunya tetap menghimbau para pemudik untuk melakukan perawatan secara rutin di bengkel resmi agar mobil mereka berada dalam kondisi prima saat mudik. Namun jika terjadi situasi darurat dengan mobil mereka di perjalanan, kami siap membantu dengan program Honda Siaga ini,” jelasnya.
Dua belas Bengkel Siaga Honda tersebar di titik-titik rawan sepanjang jalur mudik di Pulau Jawa dan Bali, yaitu di Cipanas, Cisarua, Tol Cikampek KM 57 + 500, Tol Cipularang KM 88, Nagrek, Cirebon, Kebumen, Rembang, Madiun, Tuban, Situbondo, dan Negara (Bali).

Honda juga bekerjasama dengan Telkomsel dan Fren untuk menyediakan akses telepon “Telkomsel 5000” dan “Fren #5000” yang bisa dihubungi langsung oleh konsumen Telkomsel dan Fren untuk mengetahui lokasi bengkel siaga Honda terdekat. Sementara XL menyediakan nomor khusus untuk masing-masing posko Honda Siaga.
Informasi mengenai nomor-nomor tersebut terdapat dalam leaflet Honda Siaga yang tersedia di seluruh dealer resmi Honda di Indonesia. Selain berisi informasi mengenai lokasi bengkel dan posko Honda Siaga, dalam leaflet tersebut juga terdapat informasi penting lainnya seperti alamat rumah sakit, pos polisi, hingga tujuan wisata.
Melengkapi pelayanannya, Honda juga menyiagakan “Honda Service Car” di setiap bengkel siaga 24 jam dan bengkel-bengkel di dealer resmi Honda. “Honda Service Car” merupakan layanan servis yang disediakan Honda, berupa mobil Honda CR-V 2.0 yang dirancang khusus untuk memuat berbagai peralatan servis untuk melakukan pekerjaan servis darurat langsung di lokasi dimana kendaraan pelanggan mengalami kerusakan.
“Honda Service Car” dapat melakukan pekerjaan darurat untuk masalah yang sering ditemui pengendara mobil di jalan, diantaranya mogok, tambal ban, belt putus, dan kelistrikan mesin (charging, starting, dan ignition system). Selain itu, “Honda Service Car” juga dapat melakukan pekerjaan perbaikan lainnya, seperti: mengganti plat kopling, mengganti timing belt, mengganti alternator belt, mengganti saringan bensin, mengganti busi, mengganti / memeriksa rem, mengganti fluida transmisi, mengganti / menambah radiator / coolant, mengganti saringan oli, mengganti fluida power steering, mengganti saringan udara, dan mengganti / memeriksa aki.
