vespa GTS 300
Sixty-four years later, and the brilliance of a non-rider's idea - to build a motorcycle for non-riders - is still readily apparent in Piaggio & Co.'s Vespa 300 GTSie. Introduced last year, it's an evolution of the GTS250, and is the largest-capacity Vespa ever made. And the irony is that the quick-and-dirty post-war engineering, intended to get Italy back on its wheels as quickly and cheaply as possible, is now the hallmark of the luxury scooter. At $6199, the 300 GTSie is pricey for its category.
the Triumph street triple
Triumph built their reputation with a unique style and innovative ways of obtaining the most performance and benefits from their bikes and the 2010 Street Triple and Street Triple R models reflect their urban sports category best. On one hand, they have the base Street Triple model, which is technically unchanged for 2010 and on the other hand there is the Street Triple R. This last was introduced last year for riders who simply cannot comply with the idea of riding a standard model and life on board does indeed get a little better on it.
The hornet 600
The Honda Hornet 600 is around since 2007 and has managed make its presence known with its beautiful design and user friendly engine.
The new Yamaha FZ8
Although the Fz6 wasn’t falling behind the competition, we like the fact that Yamaha takes a new approach towards the middleweight sport-touring class with the Fazer8. This model should manage to stay closer to its bigger sibling, the FZ1 both in matters of performance and appearance, so I guess we should have expected Yamaha to make this move.
The new Kawasaki Z750 2011
The newly developed ‘R’ version, the 2011 Z750R, due to have its global premiere at the Intermot exhibition in Cologne next month and then displayed at EICMA 2010 in Milan this November, comes with the same engine as the one fitted on the Z750 model.
However, the Z750 R boasts new brakes and exhaust system, improved chassis with fully adjustable front forks, revised rear shock on a new aluminium swing arm, radial front brakes with braded lines and ABS as an option. Ninja-style 6-spoke front wheel with reinforced rim, Dunlop 210 tires and Kawasaki Akrapovic slip-on silencer are also included.
