Yamaha has a reputation for smashing through boundaries and taking it to the extreme. They did it with their legendary YZF-R1 and they’ve done it again with the WR250X. The WR250X is a no-compromise Supermoto based on their winning WR-F and YZ-F racers, born for extreme fun on city streets. It features a 10,000rpm engine, aluminium main frame and race suspension that rule the city and take your riding skills to new heights on the awesome roads in Snowdonia.

The Bandit is dead! Long live the Bandit! Suzuki's long lived and ever popular bandit 1200 has been replaced by the new Bandit 1250 with a completely new watercooled fuel injected engine. The new engine is said to improve the Bandits already legendary mid-range grunt by nearly 20% !!! while retaining all of the older models rider friendly attitude. ABS braking is also becoming standard feature on both this and the new 650 Bandit that is also benefits from the all new engine fuel injected watercooled engine. 

Yamaha's legendary R1 was massively updated for 2007 featuring new technology to provide the ultimate performance and handling both on the road and on the track, so for 2008 it remains essentially the same bike. New innovations include the radical YCC-I (Yamaha Chip Controled - Intake) the world's first electronically controled , motor drive intake stacks on a production bike. That coupled to the MotoGP derived YCC-T (Yamaha Chip Controled - Throttle) combine to give extreamly refined power delivery for execptional engine performance. Other improvements include a new four valve cylinder head with Titanium valves inspired by Yamaha's awesome M1 MotoGP bike. While the chassis incorporates a newly redesigned Deltabox frame, 'upside down' truss type swinging arm and all new six piston radially-mounted front brake calipers.

Suzuki's flagship model just got better... If that's possible! The new GSX-R features three engine power settings that are available at the flick of a switch while you are riding the bike. The first (approx 100 bhp) is ideal for town riding or when conditions are poor allowing you to make progress without spinning up cold tyres in the wet for instance. The middle setting which Suzuki suggest is going to be about 135 bhp should be suitable for just about every day to day open road situation, leaving the awesome full power setting (approx 180bhp) for those more demanding moments and track days. Other developments include new chassis for more responsive handling and twin exhausts for better balance and more centralized weight distribution.

Suzuki B-King

The waiting is over, the B-King has become a reality. This year the ultimate street bike will be launched, hitting showrooms the world over this Autumn. Forget all you know, or think you know, about naked bikes. Nothing will prepare you for this! Originally unveiled at the Tokyo Motor Show in 2001, the B-KING concept machine was highly acclaimed from the moment the covers were lifted.

With such outlandish styling and brutal power, the B-KING's transition from concept to reality has not been an easy one, but uncharacteristically for a concept machine, it has stayed remarkably true to its original form as it got ready to become reality in Autumn 2007. Please note the picture is of a pre-production model and aspects of design may change. For more info visit www.suzukibking.co.uk.
