It's not a trade show or a showroom, but closer to a curated exhibition of what motorcycle design looks like right now. This May, LIND Stockwell Designwill arrive with something even bigger than previous years. Across both Triumph and Ducati, Charlie Stockwells work will be on display under one roof at Tobacco Dock. Seeing Stockwells touch on both the Triumph Modern Classics and Ducatis performance-led frames in one spot is rare. Its a perfect contrast between British heritage and Italian flair. Our Triumph custom for this year is still largely under wraps, but already carrying weight. With a focus on pushing both design and execution, expect something technically ambitious and visually striking. Its not just another custom; its a statement piece. Where the Triumph could leaninto Scrambler heritage and Dakar aesthetic, expect something different from the Ducati side, with sharper, high-performance "street-fighter" or "neo-retro" energy. We'll have to wait and see. Tobacco Dock doesnt behave like a traditional event space. It feels closer to a living gallery. Over 250 motorcycles, surrounded by live music, barbers, tattoo artists, and some of the best street food in the city. Its dense, immersive, and deliberately unpolished. If you know, you know. For those planning to attend, Friday evening tends to be the moment. The preview night, the closest youll get to the bikes, and the best chance to catch Stockwell and other builders before the weekend madness arrives. Click below to get your tickets. What's next in the workshop? Away from the show, the momentum doesnt slow down. Across our LIND motorcycleworkshops, a new wave of builds is already taking shape with the kind of projects that quietly build anticipation before theyre ever seen in full. First is a Scrambler 1200; mid-transition from a stealthy blacked-out look to a 1960s F1 livery, which is a big aesthetic leap. Using F1-inspired colours on a Scrambler 1200 creates that perfect "gentleman racer" vibe that works so well on the large-displacement Modern Classics. Nearby, a Tiger 1200 Rally Pro is being reworked through a different lens; a dream build for adventure fans. Taking the modern tech of the Rally Pro and dressing it in 70s Dakar styling, likely with big, bold decals and rugged fabrication, is a great nod to the era that defined off-road endurance. The "Road Runner" Scrambler 900 is currently in the paint shop, with the name suggesting something fast, lean, and perhaps a bit cheeky. Stay tuned to see if it leans into a "Baja" desert racer look or a more urban-stripper style. And then theres theT100, finished in Land Rover Eastnor Green. Deep, muted, and unmistakably British, it's a colour that carries its own history, iconic for the Land Rover Defender. A deep, muddy forest green, whichwe can't wait to reveal on the T100 tank.

Long known for his work with Harley-Davidson, Stockwell has turned his attention toward the Triumph Bonneville T120 and T100, using them as a foundation for a growing series of custom builds. The approach is not about reinvention for its own sake, but about refinement,balancing raw aggression with a sense of mid-century elegance that feels both familiar and new. From the dark, performance-led Raven T120 to the aviation-inspired Sunraiser T100, the Bonneville becomes more than a motorcycle. It becomes a canvas. "The Bonneville gives us the perfect start. The chassis and motor are sound; there isn't much we need to change there. A lot of the time, we want to keep that iconic silhouette anyway." Charlie Stockwell The "Raven" T120: Dark, Mean, and Purposeful If the standard T120 leans toward heritage polish, the Raven T120 moves in the opposite direction. This is a build defined by a blackout philosophy. Chrome is stripped away in favour of depth and shadow, giving the bike a more aggressive, urban presence. The silhouette is tightened through a shortened subframe and a slab-style saddle, while the stance is sharpened to feel lower, more deliberate, and more composed. The transformation goes beyond aesthetics. Upgraded suspension brings a new level of precision, with hlins Blackline rear dampers and Marzocchi forks refining the ride. Braking is elevated to match, with Brembo monobloc callipers and high-performance discs delivering sharper control under load. A full Zard 2-2 exhaust completes the build, giving the Bonneville a deeper, more guttural voice. The Raven doesnt exaggerate. It distils. The "Sunraiser" T100: A Global Contender Where the Raven is shadow, the Sunraiser T100 is light. Built for Dougie Poynter and entered into Triumphs global Originals competition, where it placed second worldwide and earned a Mark of Excellence for British Originality, the Sunraiser represents a different interpretation of the Bonneville platform. The influence here is aviation, drawing heavily from 1950s aircraft design. Polished aluminium surfaces, fluted engine covers, and a genuine aircraft navigation light integrated into the tail create a sense of craftsmanship that feels both nostalgic and precise. Even the smaller details, from the hand-turned fuel cap to the instrument-inspired lighting, reinforce the theme. The result is a machine that feels considered rather than styled. Where the Raven removes, the Sunraiser reveals. A Growing Legacy In just over a year, Charlie Stockwell established himself as a leading name in modern custom culture. His Bonnevilles are not mass-produced showpieces; they are deeply personal machines that reflect the individuality of their owners and the artistry of their creator. From retro classics reborn to dark, aggressive statements, Stockwells work proves that the Triumph Bonneville is more than just a motorcycle;its a timeless canvas for reinvention. And under the arches at Triumph London, that reinvention is happening one masterpiece at a time.

Working closely with his "inner circle" oflong-trustedbrands and partners in the custom scene, a carefully selected list of parts will transformyour modern classic within a day. Stockwells design philosophy focuses on "intentional" mods, changing the bikes silhouette and stance without compromising the engineering that makes a Triumph a Triumph. One of our first and recent examples of this canbe seen over at the Triumph East London showroom now. Based on a 2026 Triumph T100 in Stone Grey, the bike has been reworked to introduce a more rugged, all-road character. Heidenau K60 tyres shift its intent beyond the road, while a shortened rear fender and high-tail setup tighten the silhouette. Lighting is refined through discreet indicators and a single PIAA fog lamp, while protective elements such as a sump guard, radiator guard, and headlamp guard add durability without excess. Details like a Viper saddle, bar-end mirrors, and a gold chain paired with a black billet sprocket bring texture and contrast, completing the transformation. It isnt a full custom in the traditional sense, but rathera considered step between standard and bespoke.

Developed in collaboration between Stockwell Design and Triumph North London, this custom Triumph Scrambler 900 takes the familiar modern classic platform and pushes it toward something more capable. Less showpiece, more tool, it's amachine shaped as much by terrain as by design thatfeels ready before it even moves. At a glance, the Scrambler 62 holds onto the DNA that defines Triumphs scrambler line. The stance is upright, the proportions are balanced, and the silhouette is unmistakably classic. But look closer, and the intent becomes clear. Finished in Vivid Black and Pepperpot White, the paintwork keeps things restrained and purposeful. No excess graphics. No unnecessary detail. Just contrast, tone, and clarity fora finish that feels as natural against stone and mud as it does under city lights. Blacked-out components and Cerakote finishes tighten the overall silhouette. At the same time, subtle touches like the black 4-bar tank badges and refined hardware give the bike a more modern edge without disrupting its heritage lines. This isnt nostalgia, its evolution. Where the Scrambler 62 separates itself is in how its equipped. This isn't justa scrambler in name. Continental TKC80 tyres, front and rear, give the bike genuine off-road intent, paired with Fox Racing rear shocks that deliver control and composure when the surface turns unpredictable. The result is a machine that feels planted, whether its carving through back roads or pushing onto gravel and green lanes. Protection comes as standard. Dresser bars, a radiator guard, and a Triumph aluminium sump guard reinforce the bikes durability, allowing it to take on tougher terrain without hesitation. A high-level front fender and practical rack kit further enhanceusability, adding function without cluttering the design. This is a bike that expects to get dirty. At its core, the 900cc parallel twin remains unchanged in character:torque-rich, smooth, and easy to ride, but the voice has been transformed. A set of Hitchcox shotgun slip-ons adds depth and presence, delivering a more resonant, authoritative tone. Its not excessive, but its unmistakable. The kind of sound that belongs on open roads and quiet lanes alike. Lighting has been upgraded for real-world riding, with a Philips LED headlamp, integrated parking light, and a PIAA fog lamp mounted up front. As daylight fades, the bike remains just as capable. Discreet Motogadget indicators and a clean tail tidy keep the lines sharp and uncluttered, reinforcing the builds balance between utility and refinement. What defines the Scrambler 62 isnt any single component. Its the balance. Every part,from the billet sprocket and gold D.I.D chain conversion to the refined cockpit details like adjustable levers and heated grips, works together to create a machine that feels cohesive, not assembled. It retains the spirit of a classic scrambler but removes the compromises. Better suspension. Better braking. Better reliability. No trade-offs. Just capability. Designed with the landscapes of Flint, Wales, in mind, the Scrambler 62 feels equally at home on winding B-roads, green lanes, and everything in between. Its built for a riderwho doesnt want to choose between style and function, who values heritage without limitation, and who wants to ride further, not just look the part. The Scrambler 62 doesnt try to redefine the platform. It simply pushes it further. Start your dream build More details unfold in the gallery and full spec list.

The name blends Revolution Max and Caf Racer, but the bikes soul reaches much further back, drawing a clear line to the late 70s XLCR, one of the most intriguing and misunderstood machines in Harleys history The RMCR isnt just a design exercise. Harley describes it as a tribute to Willie G. Davidson, the legendary designer and grandson of company co-founder William A. Davidson. The original XLCR was Willie G.s passion project, a factory caf racer introduced at a time when Harley-Davidson was anything but performance-focused. Commercially, the XLCR struggled. Just over 3,000 units were produced between 1977 and 1978, with a handful following in 1979. But time has shifted perception. Its rarity, angular styling, and unapologetic attitude have since elevated it to one of the most collectable Harleysever built. Harleys designers have clearly studied the XLCRs silhouette, lifting several of its most distinctive cues and reworking them for the RMCR. The bikini fairing returns as a defining feature, now sharper and more contemporary. Cast wheels subtly echo the original stance, while the unusual siamesed 2-into-2 exhaust configuration reappears on the right side, updated to suit the Revolution Max engine. Even with a completely modern powertrain, the RMCR carries forward Sportster-inspired proportions, maintaining a lean, purposeful posture. The result is a concept that feels both retro and forward-looking. A caf racer that respects its lineage without becoming constrained by it. The question is: will it ever reach production?The RMCR appears far closer to production-ready than most concept bikes, and the Revolution Max platform is already proven across multiple models. Even so, Harley-Davidson remains quiet on its intentions. If the RMCR does make it to showrooms, it would represent one of the brands boldest stylistic moves in years, and a rare return to the experimental mindset that produced the XLCR in the first place. If the RMCR has sparked ideas of a caf racer of your own, or a custom Harley in any form, theres no need to wait for a factory decision. You can start that process now with Charlie Stockwell of Stockwell Design and LIND Motorcycles, one of the UKs most respected custom Harley builders. Bespoke builds are available through Guildford Harley-Davidson and Newmarket Harley-Davidson, where each project is shaped around your brief, from subtle refinements to full ground-up commissions.

MORE STORIES Tue, 17 Mar 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/custom-triumph-happy-days-speedmaster-1970s-chopper-spirit-with-modern-performance Custom Triumph Happy Days Speedmaster: 1970s Chopper Spirit with Modern Performance PUBLISHED 06.03.2026 There are motorcycles you buy with your head, and there are motorcycles you build with your memory. When Rodney walked into the Triumph London dealership to order a new Bonneville Speedmaster, he wasnt chasing trends or building a show pony. He was chasing something far more personal. The feeling of the early 1970s, when handlebars were high, exhaust pipes reached for the sky, and the open road felt endless. Back then, he rode bobbers and choppers that shook, rattled, and demanded constant tinkering. They werent perfect, nor refined, but they had soul. And this time, Rodney wanted both - The Happy Days Speedmaster, built with Stockwell Design. The transformation begins where every proper chopper statement starts - at eye level. Fourteen-inch chrome ape hangers rise confidently above the tank, instantly rewriting the Speedmasters silhouette. They pull the rider upright, arms stretched just enough to feel the road without fighting it. In chrome, they echo the polished engine cases below, creating a line that defines the entire build. Its not exaggerated, it's intentional. From across the parking lot, the message is clear - this machine remembers where it came from. If handlebars set the attitude, the exhaust sets the voice. Rodney commissioned custom Trumpet upswept slip-ons as an unmistakable nod to the boulevard choppers of his youth. The pipes sweep upward with purpose, visually lifting the rear of the bike and adding just enough defiance to the profile. But this isnt 1972. Beneath that vintage silhouette lives modern fuel injection and contemporary tuning. The note is deep, authoritative, and clean. No carburettor hesitation, no roadside adjustments, just reliable torque delivered with a soundtrack that feels earned. A custom rear fender tightens the back end, giving the bike a leaner, more deliberate stance. Rising above it, a tall sissy bar completes the period-correct outline. In the early days, a sissy bar meant freedom. It held bedrolls, jackets, maybe everything you owned. On Rodneys build, it serves the same symbolic purpose - adventure, while adding real-world passenger support and touring practicality. Its heritage, refined. The long-slung dual saddle may be the clearest example of Rodneys philosophy. Wrapped in black leather with diamond stitch detailing, it captures the handcrafted aesthetic of the chopper era. But underneath, modern materials deliver day-long comfort. It looks like it belongs outside a roadside diner in 1973, and rides like it belongs on a 500-mile Saturday. Photos courtesy of @sezudo_photography But what makes Rodneys Speedmaster special isnt any single modification. Its the balance. The stance says rebellion, the engineering says confidence, and the details say experience. He didnt want to relive the past exactly as it was. He wanted to bring its spirit forward, without the oil leaks, the roadside tuning sessions, or the compromises. The result is a bespoke motorcycle that honours the raw individuality of early American chopper culture, while embracing the reliability and refinement of modern British engineering. Rodney isnt trying to be 22 again; hes simply riding forward, with better suspension, better brakes, and the same wide grin. And somewhere, in the reflection of those chrome ape hangers, you can still see the young rider he used to be. Start your dream build More details unfold in the gallery and full spec list.

The Banshee T120, built in collaboration between Stockwell Design and Triumph London, is a shadow-driven evolution of the Triumph Bonneville T120. Where the standard model leans into heritage chrome and polished nostalgia, the Banshee strips that back in favour of blacked-out intent, laced with just a whisper of gold. This isn't a cosmetic exercise;its a recalibration. At first glance, the Banshee feels industrial, purposeful, and composed. Denim Black and Vivid Black dominate the bodywork, layered with Dakar Gold accents that surface subtly rather than scream for attention. Gloss-black aluminium rims are laced to gold hubs, creating contrast without disrupting the visual mass. A D.I.D gold chain and black billet rear sprocket echo the theme at the rear wheel. Blacked-out throttle bodies, engine cases, brightwork, and a black 4-bar tank badge further tighten the silhouette. The effect isnt flamboyant,butdeliberate, through engineered restraint. As we've come to expect with any Stockwell custom, the transformation goes far beyond finish. Up front, hlins FSK120 fork internals sharpen feedback and front-end control, paired with Black DLC-coated stanchions that reduce friction while reinforcing the stealth aesthetic. At the rear, fully adjustable Fox Racing shocks replace the standard units, bringing precision and composure under load. The result is a Bonneville that feels tighter and more deliberate;less boulevard cruiser, more back-road predator. The full unrestricted Spark Hot Rod exhaust system rewrites the T120s voice entirely. The 1200cc parallel twin exhales with authority, emittinga deep, resonant growl that feels thick and mechanical rather than theatrical. It doesnt scream for attention, butrumbles with intent. Paired with Galfer wave brake discs front and rear and Heidenau K60 Scout tyres, the Banshee carries its aggression into both braking and grip. Function meets form, without excess. Motogadget Mo-Blaze indicators keep lighting discreet and precise. A BAAK headlamp bracket sharpens the front profile, while Triumph Bobber handlebars subtly adjust posture and presence. Motone bar-end mirrors, tail tidy, radiator guard, and chain guard refine the finish without overwhelming it. Every component feels considered. Nothing decorative. Nothing accidental. What defines the Banshee T120 is its duality. It retains the classic Bonneville proportions, withupright ergonomics, twin shocks, and timeless tank lines,yet feels entirely modern in attitude. Brutal without being loud. Elegant without being delicate. In a market crowded with customs chasing spectacle, the Banshee stands apart by distillation. It doesnt reinvent the Bonneville, butconcentrates it. And in doing so, it proves that sometimes the strongest statement is made in black,with just a hint of gold.

Where the standard TFC leans into carbon fibre sheen and pit-lane precision, the Cotswolds edition shifts the tone entirely. This is a countryside-bred reinterpretation, and a machine shaped by the restrained strength and quiet honesty of rural Britain. It doesnt shout. It endures. The influence isnt literal, but philosophical. Think classic Land Rover Defender. Not because it looks like one, but because it carries the same sense of purpose. Earth-tone finishes replace gloss and flash. Muted greens, sanded neutrals, graphite greys. Military and agricultural cues appear not as decoration, but as design intent. Nothing delicate or superfluous. Surface treatments are textured and protective. Hardware feels exposed and honest. Finishes prioritise longevity over showroom shine. The aesthetic is utilitarian, but never crude. It's agricultural in spirit, but premium in execution, with a shift in posture. The Cotswolds TFC Bobber retains the performance pedigree of the Factory Custom platform, with lightweight components, high-spec suspension, and serious braking, while reframing them entirely. Carbon fibre becomes structural rather than decorative. Metal finishes feel bead-blasted and unpolished. Leather looks worn-in from day one, not glossed for display. A 16-inch front wheel wrapped in Baja rugged tyres front and rear shifts the stance and intent. Denali fog lights add practical presence. Dresser bars and forward foot controls alter the riding position, giving the bike a more commanding feel. LED front indicators remain discreet, while multi-function rear lighting is tucked cleanly beneath the seat. A custom license plate mount keeps the rear tight, and bar-end mirrors finish the cockpit with quiet precision. The custom Cotswolds TFC Bobber is a machine that feels as comfortable outside a converted Cotswold stone barn as it would carving through open B-roads. Engineered, understated, and confidently out of step with expectation. Custom Shop Update: Whats On the BenchES? Both the Banshee T120 and Happy Days Speedmaster are currently on the bench for final finishing, courtesy of Triumph London. These builds are entering their last stages before reveal, but they wont stay under wraps for much longer. Just landed in the workshop is something entirely different: a Scrambler 400 XC build taking cues from the 80s icon, the Opel Manta. Expect bold retro graphics, sharp contrast detailing, analogue attitude, and a rally-inspired character distilled into a lightweight modern platform. Its a nod to the golden era, reimagined for todays streets. Alongside it, a Speed Twin 900 is beginning to take shape. Sleek but rugged. Moody. Urban. Understated, but purposeful. Dark finishes and refined detailing sharpen the silhouette without losing the Speed Twins modern-classic DNA. And early design work has just begun on a Speed Twin 1200 RS that will draw strong visual cues from Triumph motorcycles of the 1960s. Expect timeless proportions, heritage detailing, and subtle references to the era that defined the brand, distilled into a contemporary custom. Three very different inspirations, with one unmistakable Custom Shop signature. Its shaping up to be a big few weeks from the custom shop.

It started life as a well-loved 2019 Triumph Speed Twin 1200, clocking real miles and wearing the honest marks of use. When it arrived in our Vauxhall workshop, it carried the patina of a bike that had done exactly what it was built to do: ridden hard and ridden often. What followed wasnt just a refresh, buta full reset. Handed over to Charlie Stockwell, the Speed Twinwas stripped back and reimagined from the ground up. The commuter-focused accessories and practical add-ons were removed. In their place, a sharper, leaner, more deliberate stance was created. Every surface was reconditioned, andevery detail reconsidered Performance hasnt simply been restored, but also elevated. Up front, an Andreani fork cartridge kit transforms the feel through the bars, tightening feedback and control. At the rear, hlins Blackline TR965 shocks providecomposure and precision, giving the Speed Twin a more planted, confident ride. Braking is sharpened with Galfer wave discs front and rear, delivering improved bite and feel. A fresh set of Dunlop Mutant tyres enhances grip and stability, reinforcing the bikes newfound edge. Breathing is opened up through a Zard 2-2 exhaust system, modified to fit the Speed Twin platform. The result isa freer-flowing setup with a deeper, more assertive soundtrack, which is mechanical, purposeful, and unmistakable. Quite literally, everything has been upgraded or reconditioned. Visually, the transformation is just as considered. The custom paintwork from Image Design Custom has been finished in Dirty Sage and Denim Black, giving the Highland its muted, earthy, and grounded identity. All brightwork has been treated in black Cerakote totightenthe silhouette and reduce visual noise across the engine and chassis. A Koso LED Thunderbolt headlamp paired with billet brackets modernises the front end, while discreet Motogadget Mo Blaze LED indicators and a clean tail tidy keep the lines uncluttered. A custom sump guard adds a subtle utilitarian edge, reinforcing the bikes tougher stance. The result is a Speed Twin that retains the soul of the original 2019 machine but carries the presence of something altogether more deliberate. It doesn'tfeellike a daily commuter anymore. It feels morefocused, purposeful and reborn. The Highland Speed Twin isnt about replacing what was there before. Its about refining it, taking a well-used platform and giving it a second life with sharper intent and elevated execution. A true Highland rebirth.

MORE STORIES Mon, 16 Feb 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/custom-triumph-castleton-t120-rugged-moody-and-unapologetically-tough Custom Triumph Castleton T120: Rugged, Moody, and Unapologetically Tough PUBLISHED 13.02.2026 Following on from the Dakota and Libertad y Felicidad builds, the Castleton T120 marks the latest collaboration between Stockwell Design and Triumph London,and it continues an unmistakable direction. Rugged. Moody. Unapologetically tough. Built on the iconic Triumph Bonneville T120 platform, the Castleton leans away from caf racer polish and toward something more grounded. Classic British heritage remains at its core, but here its filtered through a darker, more muscular lens. Less refinement for show. More presence for the street. The design language is deliberate. Blacked-out components create a stealth aesthetic that tightens the silhouette and lowers the visual weight of the bike. A chunkier stance, reinforced by Heidenau K60 Scout tyres front and rear, gives the T120 a planted, urban confidence. The custom paintwork, finished in Gravel Grey and Denim Black, keeps graphics to a minimum. No excess striping. No unnecessary flash. Just depth, tone, and texture, with premium finishes that elevate the platform without softening its edge. Shortened Motone fenders front and rear clean up the profile, while a Motone El Dorado LED rear light and discreet Motogadget mini indicators keep the lighting modern and minimal. A BAAK headlamp bracket paired with a Tamarit headlamp cage sharpens the front end, bringing a subtle scrambler influence to the Bonnevilles classic proportions. At its core, the 1200cc parallel twin remains untouched:torquey, responsive, and unmistakably Bonneville. The modifications here are about attitude rather than compromise. Hitchcox black slip-ons deepen the soundtrack, while Fox Racing rear suspension adds composure and control. A gold D.I.D chain paired with a black billet rear sprocket introduces contrast at the rear wheel fora small but deliberate detail that reinforces the builds mechanical honesty. Blacked-out throttle bodies further darken the engines profile, tightening the overall visual language and keeping the focus on stance and silhouette. What defines the Stockwell approach is not excess, but intention. Respect for the original lines. Premium materials. Subtle but deliberate customisation. A balance of aggression and refinement. Where the Dakota hinted at refined rebellion and Libertad y Felicidad carried cultural narrative, the Castleton strips things back to something more elemental. It feels built for cold morning city rides and late-night urban runs. Less about spectacle. More about presence. The Castleton T120 isnt designed to shout. Its built to stand its ground.

The build is based on the Triumph Thruxton 1200 RS,Triumphs most advanced pure caf racer. With its 1,200cc parallel-twin engine, hlins suspension, Brembo braking, ride-by-wire throttle, and selectable riding modes, the Thruxton RS blends classic caf racer proportions with modern performance engineering. Its a bike that already sits at the sharp end of Triumphs modern classic range,making it the ideal foundation for a considered custom transformation. At the heart of the Alchemist build is a striking visual identity. The bespoke paintwork is finished in Miami Mint Pearl and Denim Black, laid down in high-gloss to amplify the Thruxtons muscular lines. Fresh, confident, and contemporary, the colourway brings a new energy to the caf racer silhouette while remaining true to its heritage roots. Performance and presence come together through a full titanium exhaust system by Hitchcox, featuring beautifully executed pie-cut welded bends. Its a centrepiece in its own right, beingvisually dramatic, technically precise, and designed to enhance both sound and performance. The system sits tight to the bike, reinforcing its purposeful stance while delivering a crisp, characterful soundtrack. Craftsmanship continues at the saddle, where the seat has been completely re-upholstered in charcoal Alcantara and black leather, finished with diamond stitching. A subtle mint-green double frame stitch mirrors the paintwork, tying the entire build together through detail rather than excess, creatingthe kind of finish that rewards a closer look. The finishing touches elevate the Alchemist Thruxton RS further. Motogadget bar-end mirrors and front indicators clean up the cockpit, while adjustable front levers add both function and finesse. A slim tail tidy integrates an LED rear light for a sharper rear profile, complemented by a headlamp and speedo lowering kit paired with a headlamp cage to bring the front end down visually. Every piece of bright-work has been treated in black Cerakote, sharpening the overall silhouette and giving the bike a cohesive, modern edge. Subtle upgrades,including billet and machined components from Triumph and Motone,add texture and depth without pulling focus from the builds core identity. The result is a Thruxton RS that feels purposeful, refined, and confident. A caf racer transformed through colour, craftsmanship, and considered detail.Modern in execution, timeless in intent.

MORE STORIES Fri, 30 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/triumph-reveals-speed-twin-1200-cafe-racer-edition Triumph Reveals Speed Twin 1200 Caf Racer Edition PUBLISHED 28.01.2026 A Modern Interpretation of Caf Racer Style Triumph Motorcycles has unveiled the Speed Twin 1200 Caf Racer Edition, a striking new limited-run model inspired by the original British caf racers of the 1960s. Limited to just 800 motorcycles worldwide, each example comes with a Certificate of Authenticity, reinforcing its exclusivity. Based on the Speed Twin 1200 RS, the Caf Racer Edition features low clip-on handlebars, a streamlined single-seat profile and a distinctive brown bullet seat with removable cowl. High-quality details such as machined bar-end mirrors, sculpted knee pads and ribbed engine cover badges complete the refined caf racer look. Pillion footpegs are removed as standard but supplied for owners who wish to reinstate two-up capability. An exclusive British racing-inspired colour scheme combines Competition Green and Aluminium Silver paintwork, accented by Empire Gold detailing, Aluminium Silver wheels and a colour-coded headlight bowl for a timeless yet purposeful appearance. Thrilling Bonneville Performance Designed for riders seeking a more engaging and dynamic ride, the Speed Twin 1200 Caf Racer Edition shares the RS models premium chassis components. Fully adjustable Marzocchi forks are paired with hlins rear suspension, delivering precise control and confidence-inspiring handling. Braking performance is equally impressive, thanks to twin Brembo Stylema calipers acting on 320 mm discs. High-performance Metzeler Racetec RR K3 tyres come fitted as standard, providing exceptional grip and consistent feedback in both spirited road riding and everyday use. At the heart of the Caf Racer Edition is Triumphs high-compression Bonneville 1200 twin engine, producing 105 PS at 7,750 rpm and delivering strong, sustained performance right through to the 8,000 rpm redline. With a distinctive 270-degree firing order and low-inertia crankshaft, throttle response is immediate and engaging. Peak torque of 112 Nm ensures effortless acceleration across the rev range, making the Speed Twin 1200 Caf Racer Edition as thrilling on winding roads as it is refined for everyday riding. Premium Finish and Timeless Detail True to Triumphs modern classic philosophy, advanced engineering is paired with elegant design. Cables and hoses are carefully concealed, while the sculpted fuel tank features raked lines, deep cut-outs and a flip-up filler cap for a clean, purposeful finish. Black powder-coated engine casings, a compact silencer and uninterrupted exhaust lines reinforce the motorcycles classic character. At the front, a round headlight with full LED lighting and distinctive DRL signature completes the look. The caf racer movement emerged in Britain during the 1960s, centred around transport cafs such as Londons iconic Ace Caf. Triumphs parallel-twin Bonneville engines quickly became the foundation of the movement, prized for their performance, handling and unmistakable British character. Decades later, that spirit lives on. The Speed Twin 1200 Caf Racer Edition celebrates this legacy, reinterpreting the style and attitude of the original caf racers through modern performance, technology and craftsmanship. Availability at LIND Triumph Dealerships UK customers can be among the first to secure the Speed Twin 1200 Caf Racer Edition using Triumphs new Reserve My Triumph technology. This reservation service launches in the UK ahead of a wider European rollout from Spring 2026.

ThiscustomBobber, number 88 in the LIND x Stockwell collaboration project, isreduced to its raw core, where stance, sound, and surface finish do the heavy lifting. Stock mudguards make way for shorter, bobbed units front and rear, tightening the silhouette and lowering the visual weight of the bike. Continental whitewall tyres lock in the stance, giving the build a classic hot-rod feel that contrasts perfectly with the Bobbers modern foundations. Discreet Motone Pico LED lighting front and rear keeps everything clean and uncluttered, allowing the form of the bike to speak for itself. A custom-modified Zard exhaust sharpens the soundtrack, delivering a bark that matches the bikes stripped-back aggression. The system sits tight to the bike, purposeful and unapologetic, reinforcing the sense that every component here earns its place. All of thisconverges at the fuel tank. Finished in vivid black and overlaid with deep purple and blue pearl hot-rod flames, hand-pinned in white, it brings movement and intensity to an otherwise restrained palette. Its bold, unapologetic, and deliberately theatrical witha nod to classic hot-rod culture filtered through a modern Triumph lens. The result is a Triumph Bobber that feels raw, direct, and confident. Built on attitude, not ornament. What's Next? New year, new builds, and several projects now entering their final stages. Next week sees the reveal of the Alchemist Thruxton RS, finished in a vibrant custom paint scheme you won't want to miss.

MORE STORIES Fri, 23 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/2026-triumph-trident-660-and-tiger-sport-660-revealed 2026 Triumph Trident 660 and Tiger Sport 660Revealed PUBLISHED 20.01.2026 Major enhancements, improved capability Triumph is taking its popular Trident 660 and Tiger Sport 660 to the next level with their most significant updates yet. These updates deliver more performance, making the Trident 660 a much sportier choice, while the Tiger Sport 660 delivers character and excitement, while also improving its touring capability. At the heart of the upgrade is a major engine enhancement. Both models now feature a higher-performance 660cc triple engine, producing an impressive 95PS and 68Nm of torque. This step up in power puts the Trident 660 at the top of middleweight roadster class, while the Tiger Sport 660 combines its new performance with improved touring capability for riders who want to go further, asserting its position as the ultimate middleweight all-rounder. The updates dont stop at the engine. The Trident 660 gains a more muscular stance with new bodywork and a chiselled fuel tank, reinforcing its athletic roadster attitude. The Tiger Sport 660 introduces a larger 18.6-litre fuel tank and new bodywork including updated radiator cowls, improving range and weather protection on long rides. Both models retain their agile, confidence-inspiring handling, now complemented by chassis refinements and improved ride quality. The Trident 660 benefits from a new Showa rear suspension unit for improved adjustability, while the Tiger Sport 660 retains its accessible ergonomics and low seat height, ensuring comfort for everyday riding and long-distance touring. The latest updates to the Trident 660 and Tiger Sport 660 are complemented by bold new colour schemes and graphics that enhance their distinctive styling. For the Trident 660, the vibrant Cosmic Yellow and Stone Grey take centre stage as the premium paint choice, with Snowdonia White offered as standard. The Tiger Sport 660 introduces Interstellar Blue with Mineral Grey alongside Silver Ice with Intense Orange as its striking new premium options, and the standard option, Pure White. These fresh designs give riders even more ways to personalise their bike while maintaining Triumphs premium finish and attention to detail. Updated 660cc triple engine Both the Trident 660 and Tiger Sport 660 benefit from the higher-performance version of Triumphs 660cc Triple, achieved through a series of mechanical changes and a new engine tune. Peak power is now 95 PS at 11,250 rpm, an increase of 14 PS, with the redline raised by 20% to 12,650 rpm for a livelier top end. Torque also sees an uplift to 68 Nm at 8,250 rpm, with 80% of that available from 3,000 rpm right through to almost 12,000 rpm, ensuring strong, flexible performance across the rev range. This combination makes the Trident 660 sportier and more engaging, while the Tiger Sport 660 offers added touring capability, whether riding two-up or fully loaded all while retaining easy, accessible performance and A2 licence compatibility. A key part of the performance upgrade comes from significant changes to the engine hardware, including a move from a single throttle body to three individual 44mm throttle bodies, one for each cylinder. This update further enhances the sporty nature of Triumphs three-cylinder design, delivering the ideal balance of strong low-down torque with even more mid-range and top-end power. These changes work in harmony with the new engine tune to provide riders with a more responsive and characterful experience across the rev range. Further enhancing performance and responsiveness, the engine benefits from a larger, front-mounted airbox that improves airflow and delivers a more engaging induction sound. The cylinder head has also been re-engineered with larger exhaust valves and a higher-lift cam profile to optimise combustion and power delivery. To manage the increased performance, the cooling system has been upgraded with a larger, repositioned radiator and fan, ensuring efficient temperature control even in demanding riding conditions. Completing the performance package is a new engine tune that brings a series of refinements. Alongside the increased torque and raised redline, the calibration has been optimised for smoother low-RPM throttle openings and improved overall throttle response. These changes ensure the Trident 660 and Tiger Sport 660 deliver accessible, predictable performance with added excitement across the rev range. The performance upgrades are complemented by a series of key component revisions. The exhaust system now features a 3-into-1 header design with a revised catalyst and an underslung silencer, contributing to both efficiency and the distinctive Triple sound. The six-speed gearbox has been updated with new input and output shafts, revised gear ratios and final drive, plus recalibrated Triumph Shift Assist for smoother, more precise changes. A new slip and assist clutch further enhances ease of use, reducing lever effort and improving control for everyday riding and longer journeys. Paul Stroud, Chief Commercial Officer, Triumph Motorcycles, said: Both the Trident 660 and Tiger Sport 660 have built a huge following worldwide, attracting riders of all ages and experience levels, from those new to motorcycling to experienced riders. The Trident 660 has also brought more female riders to Triumph than any other model in our line-up. These bikes have won multiple awards and introduced a new group of riders to the Triumph brand. For 2026, weve taken both bikes to the next level. The result is a significant performance increase, which puts the Trident 660 back at the top of its class and secures the Tiger Sport 660s position as the segment leader. Alongside this, both models gain important chassis and styling updates that enhance their presence and capability, while retaining the accessibility and A2 licence compatibility that have made them so popular. The Tiger Sport 660 sits within the Adventure Sport-Touring segment, appealing to riders who want a versatile bike for commuting during the week, fun riding at weekends, and longer touring trips often two-up and fully loaded. The Trident 660, on the other hand, is a middleweight roadster that has become a favourite for riders looking for an agile, stylish machine for urban riding and spirited back-road fun. These updates ensure both models continue to deliver exactly what their riders value most, with even more performance and refinement. TRIDENT 660 TRIPLE THE THRILL The new Trident 660 combines thrilling performance, agile handling, rider-focused technology, and distinctive muscular styling with a class-leading low cost of ownership making it the perfect entry point to the Triumph family. Class-Leading Performance with Everyday Usability:The new Trident 660 delivers a significant step up in performance for 2026. Powered by the latest evolution of Triumphs 660cc triple engine, it now produces 95PS at 11,250rpm an increase of 14PS over the previous generation and 68Nm of peak torque at 8,250rpm. With 80% of that torque available from 3,000rpm through to almost 12,000rpm, riders benefit from instant response at every twist of the throttle. Key to this improvement is a series of internal engine changes, including the introduction of three individual 44mm throttle bodies, a larger airbox, revised cylinder head, and a new engine tune. The redline has been raised by 20% to 12,650rpm, giving the Trident 660 an even more engaging top end, while maintaining the smooth, linear power delivery that makes it easy and enjoyable to ride every day. As a triple, the Trident 660 offers the perfect combination of low-down torque, and now with even more mid and top end power, providing accessible and useable everyday performance. The distinctive triple soundtrack remains a defining feature, now enriched by the triple throttle bodies and the enhanced induction system, complemented by a compact underslung silencer. A revised exhaust system with a 3-into-1 header and updated catalyst ensures compliance with the latest standards without compromising character. The six-speed gearbox has been refined with updated shafts, revised ratios, and recalibrated Triumph Shift Assist for quicker, smoother gear changes. A slip and assist clutch reduces lever effort and improves control, making the Trident 660 ideal for urban riding and longer journeys. For European riders, an A2 licence conversion kit is available as an accessory, which can be fitted and later removed by a Triumph dealer. Muscular Stance Meets Premium Finish:The 2026 Trident 660 introduces new bodywork and styling updates that give the bike a more muscular stance and athletic attitude. There is a redesigned, wider fuel tank with chiselled knee cut-outs, and a new split rider and pillion seat, with a new accessory seat cowl for solo riders. The updated headlight mount and new headlight enhance the bikes presence. Riders can further personalise their Trident with accessory options such as a colour-coded fly screen or bar-end mirrors. Attention to detail is evident throughout, with subtle Triumph branding on the handlebar clamp, filler cap, and integrated into the headlight and tail light. Cables and hoses are neatly hidden for a clean, premium finish. Three contemporary colour options are available: Cosmic Yellow, Stone Grey, for an extra 150 and Snowdonia White as standard, each complemented by distinctive graphics that reinforce the Tridents modern roadster identity. Revised Frame and Premium Suspension:The Trident 660 retains its agile, confidence-inspiring handling, now enhanced with chassis updates for 2026. A revised frame and new Showa rear suspension unit with preload and rebound adjustment join the premium Showa 41mm USD big piston forks at the front, delivering 120mm of travel. At the rear, the new RSU offers 130mm of travel and improved adjustability, allowing riders to fine-tune their setup for a sportier roadster ride. Lightweight cast aluminium wheels and Michelin Road 5 tyres provide excellent grip and feedback in all conditions, while twin 310mm discs with two-piston Nissin calipers deliver strong, predictable braking performance. Braided brake lines and a span-adjustable brake lever ensure consistent feel and control. Natural ergonomics make the Trident 660 easy to ride at any speed. A low seat height of 810mm and slim standover aid slow-speed manoeuvres, while new wider handlebars for 2026 offer greater leverage and comfort. Combined with the bikes low wet weight of 195kg, these updates reinforce the Tridents reputation for agility and rider confidence. Connectivity and Convenience Built In:The Trident 660 is equipped with a comprehensive suite of rider-focused technology designed to enhance safety, convenience, and connectivity. Ride-by-wire throttle enables three riding modes, Sport, Road and Rain, each optimising throttle response, ABS, and traction control settings for different conditions. A six-axis IMU enables Optimised Cornering ABS and switchable Optimised Cornering Traction Control, providing reassurance and control at all lean angles, enhancing confidence in any riding conditions. Triumph Shift Assist allows clutchless up and down shifts, while cruise control is fitted as standard, making longer rides more comfortable. The instrument setup combines a colour TFT display with an LCD screen, delivering clear, easy-to-read information. MyTriumph Connectivity comes as standard, enabling turn-by-turn navigation, music, and call control. Full LED lighting, including the new headlight design with integrated DRL, ensures excellent visibility and a distinctive look. TIGER SPORT 660 - ADVENTURE EXTENDED The new Tiger Sport 660 combines upgraded performance, agile handling, enhanced touring capability, and rider-focused technology with a class-leading low cost of ownership, cementing its position as the ultimate middleweight all-rounder. Class Leading Triple Advantage: As the only three-cylinder engine in this category, the Tiger Sport 660 already provides class-leading everyday performance, with the perfect combination of low-down torque, mid-range and more top-end power. For 2026, and the introduction of the updated 660cc triple engine, it now produces 95PS at 11,250rpm, which is an increase of 14PS, and 68Nm of peak torque at 8,250rpm. With 80% of that torque available from 3,000rpm through to almost 12,000rpm, riders will enjoy strong, flexible performance and intuitive throttle response at any point on the rev range, ideal for riding two-up, or fully loaded for touring. As with the Trident 660, this step up in performance comes from significant engine hardware changes, including three individual 44mm throttle bodies, a larger airbox, revised cylinder head, and a new engine tune. The redline has been raised by 20% to 12,650rpm, giving the Tiger Sport 660 an even more engaging top end while retaining the smooth, linear delivery that makes it easy to ride every day. The distinctive triple soundtrack remains a hallmark of the Tiger Sport, now enriched by the triple throttle bodies and new induction system, complemented by a compact underslung silencer. A revised exhaust system with a 3-into-1 header and updated catalyst ensures compliance with the latest standards without compromising character. The six-speed gearbox has been refined with updated shafts, revised ratios, and recalibrated Triumph Shift Assist for quicker, smoother gear changes. A slip and assist clutch reduces lever effort and improves control, making the Tiger Sport 660 ideal for urban riding and long-distance touring. An A2 licence conversion kit is available for European riders. Enhanced Presence for Every Adventure: The 2026 Tiger Sport 660 introduces new bodywork and styling updates that enhance its presence and touring capability. New bodywork enhances the Tiger Sports presence, with a more substantial front end and angular side profile, creating clean lines and that distinctive sporty style. New radiator cowls and a refined front-end design improve weather protection and comfort. The larger 18.6-litre fuel tank increases range for longer adventures, while the adjustable windscreen can be easily adjusted with one hand, taking the height from 1312mm to 1395mm. Accessory options such as heated grips and handguards provide additional comfort in challenging conditions. A comprehensive range of luggage options is also available, including colour coded panniers offering a combined 57 litres of capacity and a top box providing an additional 49 litres, enough for two helmets. This combines to make the Tiger Sport 660 ideal for commuting, weekend rides, and extended touring. The Tiger Sports distinctive design is finished with subtle Triumph branding and premium details throughout. Premium colour schemes include the dramatic Interstellar Blue & Mineral Grey or Silver Ice & Intense Orange for an extra 150, with the Pure White scheme as standard. Sportier Setup and Enhanced Touring Capability: The Tiger Sport 660 retains its agile, confidence-inspiring handling, now enhanced with chassis updates for 2026. A revised frame accommodates the new engine and triple throttle bodies, while premium Showa suspension ensures comfort and control. At the front, Showa separate function USD forks deliver 150mm of travel, paired with a Showa monoshock RSU at the rear offering 150mm of travel and remote preload adjustment for quick changes when riding two-up or fully loaded. A wet weight of 211kg, lightweight cast aluminium wheels, and Michelin Road 5 tyres provide excellent grip and confidence in all conditions. Twin 310mm discs with Nissin calipers deliver strong, predictable braking performance, supported by braided brake lines and a span-adjustable brake lever for consistent feel. The upright riding position and low seat height inspire confidence, while spacious ergonomics and integrated pillion seat ensure comfort for both rider and pillion. Accessory options include a dual low seat, reducing seat height to 810mm, and a dual comfort seat for enhanced long-distance comfort. Integrated Tech for All Conditions: The Tiger Sport 660 is equipped with a comprehensive suite of rider-focused technology fitted as standard, designed to enhance safety, convenience, and connectivity. Ride-by-wire throttle enables three riding modes Sport, Road and Rain each optimising throttle response, ABS, and traction control settings for different conditions. A six-axis IMU supports Optimised Cornering ABS and switchable Optimised Cornering Traction Control, providing reassurance and control at all lean angles. Triumph Shift Assist allows clutchless up and down shifts, while one touch cruise control is fitted as standard to help reduce fatigue on longer rides. The instrument setup combines a colour TFT display with an LCD screen, delivering clear, easy-to-read information. MyTriumph Connectivity comes as standard, enabling turn-by-turn navigation, music, and call control. Full LED lighting, including a new headlight design with integrated DRL, ensures excellent visibility and a distinctive look.

The bike itself is striking, but its the story behind its creation that makes it unforgettable. Astory well keep to ourselves, one well always cherish and feel genuinely grateful to have been part of. At the heart of it all is a truly wonderful couple who trusted us with their vision: Bernard and Margo Crowley. Bernard first reached out to Charlie a few months ago with the idea of riding his new Triumph Bonneville T120 Black over from Cork, Ireland, in the New Year, with the aim of transforming it into a one-of-one custom build, a bike he intends to keep forever, one that carries deep personal meaning. Over the following months, Bernard and Charlie spoke weekly, discussing every detail of the build, exchanging ideas, and refining the vision while counting down to the delivery date. The plan was ambitious: to pre-build, fabricate, upholster, and custom-paint the entire bike in parts in advance, allowing the transformation to take place while Bernard and Margo spent the week in London. With the specification and design finalised in December, the project began to take shape in preparation for the bikes arrival last Monday, along with a promise of a two-day turnaround so Bernard and Margo could catch the ferry back to Ireland on Thursday night. The result is a stunning custom-built Triumph T120 finished in Black Velvet and Dakar Gold, featuring the signature tough detailing that has become synonymous with Stockwells approach to the modern classic platform. As fate would have it, this build also marks a milestone in Stockwells collaboration with LIND, standing as custom build number 100, a fitting distinction for both the bike and its owners, Bernard and Margo. From Tarquin, Charlie and the team at LIND Triumph London, wed like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Bernard and Margo for sharing this wonderful experience with us and for their continued friendship.

We were absolutely delighted to be joined by 92 of our fantastic members, along with their friends and family, for an evening filled with great food, live music, laughter, and that unmistakable biker camaraderie. Adding to the atmosphere was the incredible band Firebrand, who delivered an unforgettable live performance and kept the energy high all night. It was the perfect setting to celebrate everything Plan B stands for: community, passion for motorcycles, and shared adventure. But the night wasnt just about celebration. For the second year running, we held a raffle in support of local racer Harrison Dessoy, who is competing in the World Sport Bike Cup as part of the 2026 World Superbike Series on his HID PHR Triumph Daytona 660. Thanks to the generosity of our members, we raised over 900 to help Harrison with the costs of competing at this elite level. Its moments like these that show the true heart of Plan B:riders supporting riders. Where Did Plan B Begin? The group was formed during COVID by myself and three close friends. Like everyone else, every road trip and adventure we planned was postponed. Eventually, one cancelled trip became Plan B, a scaled-down version of our original idea, made possible during a brief break in lockdown. That single ride sparked something special. What started as a small group of friends has now grown into a thriving community of over 250 riders. Today, Plan B hosts multiple events throughout the year, designed to cater for all disciplines of motorcycling and every level of ability. Whether youre a seasoned rider, newly qualified, into touring, track days, or just enjoy a social ride and a coffee stop, theres a place for you here. Our events arent just about riding either. We actively welcome family and friends to join us at social gatherings, because Plan B is about people as much as bikes. From ride outs and adventures to evenings like our annual party, Plan B offers something more than a calendar of events. It offers belonging. Its about meeting like-minded people, sharing stories at the roadside, supporting each others goals, and creating memories that last far longer than the miles. If youve ever wanted to be part of a group that values adventure, inclusivity, and genuine connection, Plan B might just be what youve been looking for. One ride, one event, one conversation is often all it takes to realise this isnt just a group, its a community. And trust us, this one is only getting bigger.

From long-haul touring machines and high-performance CVO models to adventure-ready builds and limited-edition releases, the new collection is designed for riders who expect more from every mile. Were excited to confirm that these new 2026 Harley-Davidson models will be arriving at LIND Harley-Davidson dealerships very soon. As authorised Harley-Davidson dealers, were proud to bring the latest machines, technology and factory innovations directly to our riding community. This years line-up focuses heavily on real-world upgrades. More comfort for long distances, sharper performance where it matters, refined technology and distinctive new finishes that reward close inspection. Whether youre chasing cross-country miles, exploring beyond the tarmac or simply looking for something special to add to the garage, theres something here worth your attention. Below, weve broken down whats coming for 2026 and why each model deserves a closer look. 2026 Harley-Davidson Road Glide 3 The 2026 Harley-Davidson Road Glide 3 is sharpand purposeful. With its frame-mounted shark-nose fairing and all-new rear suspension, this is a three-wheeler designed to be ridden hard, not just ridden far. The new Milwaukee-Eight VVT 117 engine delivers strong, immediate torque with a broader powerband than previous trike models. Variable valve timing helps the engine pull cleanly through the rev range, giving the Road Glide 3 a surprisingly athletic feel for its size. Combined with reduced unsprung weight and increased suspension travel, the bike feels planted through fast sweepers and stable under heavy acceleration. Visually, the Road Glide 3 leans into performance cues. The clipped rear fender, exposed rear wheels and 10-spoke aluminium rims give it a low, muscular stance. Blacked-out finishes and LED lighting add to the hot-rod aesthetic, while the frame-mounted fairing keeps steering light and precise at low speeds. Inside, the cockpit is modern and focused. A 12.3-inch touchscreen powered by Harley-Davidson Skyline OS replaces traditional dials, offering navigation, ride modes and infotainment in one clean interface. The Road Glide 3 is for riders who want the confidence of three wheels without giving up edge or attitude. 2026 Harley-Davidson Street Glide 3 Limited The 2026 Harley-Davidson Street Glide 3 Limited is built around one idea: covering serious distance in total comfort. It shares the same second-generation trike platform as the Road Glide 3, but its priorities aredifferent. Powered by the Milwaukee-Eight VVT 117 engine, the Street Glide 3 Limited delivers smooth, effortless performance rather than outright aggression. The emphasis here is on stability, refinement and predictability, especially when carrying a passenger and a full load of luggage. Long motorway stretches, poor road surfaces, and changing weather are where this trike feels most at home. The evolved batwing fairing focuses on wind management and rider protection. A taller touring windscreen, integrated fairing lowers and LED fog lamps create a calmer pocket of air, reducing fatigue on long rides. Everything about the design is tuned for relaxed, confident touring rather than visual aggression. Comfort features define the Street Glide 3 Limited experience. Heated rider and passenger seating, heated grips and generous passenger space make it genuinely capable of all-season travel. Add over seven cubic feet of luggage capacity, premium Rockford Fosgate audio and a large Skyline OS touchscreen, and the Street Glide 3 Limited becomes a long-haul touring machine in the truest sense. 2026 Harley-Davidson CVO Street Glide 3 Limited The 2026 Harley-Davidson CVO Street Glide 3 Limited is what happens when Harley-Davidson stops asking practical questions and starts chasing perfection. Built on the new second-generation trike platform, this CVO model layers exclusivity, excess and serious performance onto an already capable touring machine. At its core is the Milwaukee-Eight VVT 121 engine, the most powerful engine ever fitted to a Harley-Davidson trike. With massive torque on tap and a refined delivery thanks to variable valve timing, the CVO Street Glide 3 Limited feels effortless in motion. Fully loaded, two-up, climbing long grades or overtaking at speed, the engine never feels strained. It simply gets on with the job. Visually, this is where the CVO badge earns its keep. Exclusive multi-layer paint schemes, hand-applied graphics and premium finishes transform the Street Glide 3 Limiteds bodywork into rolling custom metal. Every surface feels intentional, from the sculpted panels to the contrasting wheel finishes and bespoke trim details. Luxury is baked into the ride. Alcantara-trimmed heated seating, a heated passenger backrest and a removable rider backrest turn long-distance travel into something indulgent rather than endurance-based. Luggage capacity is vast, with premium liners, remote locking and thoughtful storage touches designed for real-world touring. Sound comes courtesy of a Rockford Fosgate Stage II audio system, delivering serious volume and clarity even at speed. Add in CVO-exclusive accessories, advanced infotainment powered by Skyline OS and the confidence of three wheels, and the CVO Street Glide 3 Limited becomes less a motorcycle and more a grand touring statement. 2026 Harley-Davidson Street Glide Limited The 2026 Harley-Davidson Street Glide Limited is the batwing tourer turned fully modern luxury machine. It keeps the silhouette that defines Harley touring, but everything around it has been reworked for riders whoput big miles down, especially two-up. A new Milwaukee-Eight VVT 117 engine brings stronger torque and sharper response, with variable valve timing widening the powerband and improving efficiency. Its the kind of powertrain that feels relaxed at a cruise, then instantly ready when you roll on to overtake with a passenger and a full load of luggage. Up front, the updated Street Glide fairing, taller clear touring screen, fairing lowers and air deflectors are part of an aero package developed in the wind tunnel, aimed at keeping the cockpit calmer and reducing fatigue. Harley has also trimmed weight compared to the older Ultra Limited platform, which matters the moment you lift it off the stand or shuffle it around a driveway. The comfort and tech story is properly current now: dual-zone heated seating, heated hand grips, highway pegs, a reshaped passenger area, and a redesigned Grand Tour-Pak that adds practicality. The cockpit centres on a 12.3-inch touchscreen running Skyline OS, with embedded navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay, ride modes, and a punchy Rockford Fosgate audio system built for real highway speeds. This is the Street Glide Limited in its most complete form yet. Classic touring presence, upgraded for 2026 with the power, comfort and tech expected from a premium long-haul Harley-Davidson. 2026 Harley-Davidson Road Glide Limited The 2026 Harley-Davidson Road Glide Limited is for riders who want luxury touring, but with a more performance-minded edge. The frame-mounted sharknose fairing remains the defining feature, and Harley has refined it with a focus on aerodynamic comfort and reduced steering effort, especially in slow manoeuvres where big touring bikes can feel heavy. Like the Street Glide Limited, its powered by the Milwaukee-Eight VVT 117 engine, bringing more torque and horsepower than the previous generation, with variable valve timing widening the usable range and improving fuel efficiency. The engine is backed by a cooling system designed to cope better with heat and low-speed riding, plus a higher-output charging system to support touring kit and accessories. Harley has also cut weight versus the previous Road Glide Limited, sharpening that sense of control when stopping, starting, and balancing at walking pace. Suspension has been reworked for improved comfort and predictability, with SHOWA dual outboard emulsion shocks at the rear and a tool-free preload adjuster for quick changes when adding luggage or a passenger. Touring practicality is handled by the restyled Grand Tour-Pak, locking saddlebags, fairing lower storage compartments and a luggage setup made for proper trips. The tech stack mirrors the latest touring models too: a 12.3-inch Skyline OS touchscreen, embedded navigation, ride modes, rider safety enhancements, and a Rockford Fosgate audio system thatmatches the bikes premium positioning. 2026 Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 Limited The 2026 Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 Limited takes the Pan America platform deeper into true adventure-touring territory. Built as a fully equipped, factory-ready ADV machine, it bundles the most desirable off-road accessories into one cohesive package, removing the need for post-purchase upgrades. Hard aluminium luggage comes standard, with a rugged top case and side cases offering a combined 120 litres of storage. Protective equipment is equally comprehensive, with an aluminium skid plate, radiator guard and muffler guard fitted from the factory to handle rough terrain. A Screamin Eagle quickshifter allows clutchless up and down shifts, while adjustable rear brake and shifter pedals improve control when riding stood up off-road. Underneath the added hardware, the Pan America 1250 Limited retains everything that made the Pan America 1250 Special a benchmark in the ADV segment. Semi-active front and rear suspension adapts to changing surfaces, tubeless laced wheels balance strength with road comfort, and nine selectable ride modes include dedicated off-road settings. Adaptive Ride Height automatically lowers the bike at a stop and raises it once underway, making a tall adventure bike feel far more approachable in real-world riding. Power comes from the Revolution Max 1250 engine, a liquid-cooled V-Twin that delivers strong low-end torque and a rush of high-RPM performance when pushed. Rider safety enhancements, Daymaker Signature Adaptive LED lighting, heated grips and hand guards round out a package designed for long days, mixed surfaces and unpredictable conditions. The Pan America 1250 Limited is the most complete adventure touring Harley-Davidson has offered yet. 2026 Harley-Davidson CVO Street GlideLimited The 2026 Harley-Davidson CVO Street Glide Limited is CVO indulgence in its purest touring form. Built for riders who prioritise comfort, refinement and long-distance luxury, this model takes the familiar Street Glide platform and elevates it with premium materials, exclusive finishes and a serious performance upgrade. Power comes from the Milwaukee-Eight VVT 121 engine, delivering immense torque with smooth, controlled delivery thanks to variable valve timing and advanced liquid-cooled cylinder heads. It is engineered to feel effortless rather than aggressive, making two-up touring with luggage feel relaxed and unhurried. Visually, the CVO Street Glide Limited stands apart through intricate paintwork, deep finishes and finely detailed trim options. Multi-layer paint schemes, hand-applied accents and exclusive wheels give it the presence of a one-off custom, backed by full factory support. Comfort is central to the experience. Heated Alcantara-trimmed seating, a heated passenger backrest, premium suspension and Brembo braking components ensure the bike feels composed and confident over long distances. With integrated Skyline OS infotainment, Rockford Fosgate Stage II audio and generous luggage capacity, this is a factory-built luxury tourer with no loose ends. 2026 Harley-Davidson CVO Street GlideST The 2026 Harley-Davidson CVO Street Glide ST flips the touring script entirely. This is not about comfort first. It is about speed, control and attitude. Powered by the Milwaukee-Eight 121 HO engine, the Street Glide ST is the most aggressive batwing-faired motorcycle Harley-Davidson has ever offered. With elevated redline, high-performance camshaft and race-inspired intake, it delivers explosive acceleration and top-end urgency that feels closer to the racetrack than the motorway. Weight-saving measures are everywhere. Forged carbon fibre components, lightweight titanium exhausts and compact footboards reduce mass and sharpen responses. Fully adjustable SHOWA suspension and Brembo braking give the rider genuine control when pushing hard. Visually, the Street Glide ST wears its intent proudly. Dark finishes, Performance Red accents, carbon fibre details and race-inspired graphics give it a stripped-back, purposeful look. Track-focused ride modes and Skyline OS technology complete a machine designed for riders who want factory-built performance without compromise. 2026 Harley-Davidson CVO RoadGlide ST If the Street Glide ST is a performance statement, the 2026 Harley-Davidson CVO Road Glide ST is a performance weapon. Inspired directly by Harley-Davidsons King of the Baggers race programme, this is the fastest production motorcycle Harley-Davidson will offer for 2026. The Milwaukee-Eight 121 HO engine sits at the centre of the package, delivering immense power and torque with a harder-edged character than any standard touring model. Paired with a low final drive ratio, it launches hard and pulls relentlessly through the mid-range. The frame-mounted shark-nose fairing improves stability at speed, while fully adjustable SHOWA suspension and Brembo brakes allow the rider to exploit the performance safely and confidently. Extensive use of forged carbon fibre and lightweight materials helps reduce unsprung weight and sharpen handling. Styling is unapologetically aggressive. Race-inspired paint schemes, red-tinted windscreen, dark finishes and Fast Johnnie graphics reinforce its motorsport DNA. The CVO Road Glide ST is not subtle, and it is not trying to be. Harley-Davidson Enthusiast Collection Liberty Edition (2026) The 2026 Harley-Davidson Enthusiast Collection Liberty Edition is a limited-production celebration of freedom, heritage and the open road. Created to mark 250 years of the United States of America, these special-edition motorcycles honour the spirit of exploration and independence that has shaped both the country and the culture of motorcycling around it. The Liberty Edition spans three iconic Harley-Davidson models: the Street Glide, Street Glide 3 Limited and Heritage Classic. Each is finished in Midnight Ember, a deep metallic black exclusive to the Liberty Edition, chosen to give the bikes a dramatic, understated presence. Custom graphics elevate the package further, including Liberty Edition eagle artwork on the fuel tank and fairing, a distinctive see-through number one medallion, and bespoke console and engine cover inserts. Attention to detail continues at the seat, where blue seam stitching, red, white and blue accent striping, an embossed centre panel and an embroidered Bar & Shield logo reinforce the commemorative theme. Liberty Edition Street Glide and Heritage Classic models also receive a blue-tinted windscreen, adding a subtle visual signature unique to this collection. Mechanically, each Liberty Edition motorcycle remains identical to its standard 2026 counterpart, ensuring riders get the full performance, comfort and technology of the current lineup, paired with a finish designed for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Production is strictly limited, with Liberty Edition models capped at approximately 2,500 units worldwide, making this one of the most exclusive Harley-Davidson releases for 2026. For riders who value heritage as much as horsepower, the Enthusiast Collection Liberty Edition offers a rare opportunity to own a factory-built Harley-Davidson that celebrates history while remaining fully rideable and unmistakably modern. The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White Be Among the First to Experience the 2026 Line-Up The2026 Harley-Davidson lineup is finally here with new models and refreshed favourites built to keep the spirit of the open road alive.

With 44 new Triumph-based custom projects completed and now on the road, 2025 marked a landmark year for Stockwell Design. From international competition builds to new product launches and major industry events, the year showcased both creative range and growing global recognition. Scrambler 900 Standouts El Potato, Kyalami, and Scrambler 72 are all re-imagined Triumph Scrambler 900 custom builds, each shaped by a distinct design brief while remaining true to the Scramblers rugged capability and timeless proportions. As bespoke Triumph projects, these motorcycles have quickly become some of our most recognisable and sought-after builds. Interest in custom Scrambler 900 builds continues to grow, with sustained demand firmly establishing the 900 as a cornerstone of our 2025 custom motorcycle programme. LXSD056| El Potato900 LXSD079| Kyalami 900 LXSD070 | Scrambler 72 THE Sunraiser T100 ON THE Global Stage The Sunraiser T100 was a six-month collaborative custom motorcycle project built in partnership with Triumph UK and Triumph enthusiast Dougie Poynter, bassist of pop-rock band McFly. Built as the UKs entry into the Triumph Global Custom Build Competition Triumph Original, the project brought together teams from around the world, competing head-to-head for the title of World Champion. The Sunraiser ultimately finished Runner-Up, narrowly behind the Brazilian team led by Teydi Deguchi of Shibuya Garage. Since completion, the bike,now owned by Dougie, has gone on to receive significant international recognition, with appearances at leading custom motorcycle events and exhibitions, including: Featured at The Bike Shed and Malle Mile Displayed on the sunny coast of Los Angeles at the Oceanside Museum Appeared on the front cover of the newly launched Kickback Magazine LXSD080| Sunraiser Bonneville Bonneville t120 & Scrambler 1200 Programme A flurry of Bonneville T120 and Scrambler 1200 builds followed throughout the year, each one further refined with performance upgrades, bespoke detailing, and progressive styling, pushing the evolution of Stockwell Designs modern-classic language. Throughout 2025, Stockwell's custom builds emerging from the Triumph London workshop continued to gain momentum, with the Raven T120, Cino T120, Pine Scrambler, and Ghost Scrambler standing out as some of ourmost popular and widely engaged-with custom projects of the year.

Designed specifically for the Triumph Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X, the Grand National Slip-On marked an important step in Stockwell Designs expansion from bespoke custom motorcycle builds into performance-led product development. This project signalled the beginning of a broader focus on premium performance components, with further collaborative product launches already in development for 2026.

Instantly arresting, the build is defined by its audacious paintwork, which is graphic, confrontational, and impossible to ignore. But this machine is far more than a visual statement. Beneath the striking exterior lies a carefully curated suite of performance upgrades and go-faster hardware, reinforcing that Cruella was built to deliver as hard as it looks. Purposeful, aggressive, and unapologetically bold, this custom Low Rider ST perfectly captures the intersection of design artistry and modern performance. The Stockwell Flame: A Defining Moment The in-your-face custom paintwork immediately announces its intent, carrying the unmistakable Stockwell Design Flame emblazoned across the fuel tank. This marks the first LIND x Stockwell custom build to feature the now-iconic motif, and an important milestone within the collaboration. First introduced in 2018, the Stockwell Flame quickly became synonymous with the brands identity, debuting on the Stockwell Racing Flat Track and Super Hooligan teams. Adorning Stockwells race-spec Harley-Davidsons, the Flame evolved into a powerful visual signature, cementing its place in modern custom culture. Its influence soon extended beyond the track, culminating in Bell Helmets Limited Edition Stockwell Eliminator, a clear nod to the designs growing legacy. In upcoming blog features, well take a deeper look at Charlie Stockwells career, tracing the history, influences, and defining milestones that have shaped him into one of the most recognisable names in contemporary custom motorcycle design. Performance To Match The Provocation A paint scheme this striking demands performance to match, and for that, Stockwell turned to a network of trusted partners to deliver the necessary upgrades. At the heart of the transformation is an extensive suite of S&S Cyclecomponents, led by a 2-into-1 Grand National full exhaust system finished in brushed stainless steel. Breathing is further enhanced through a high-flow intake, carbon air filter cover, upgraded throttle bodies, and injectors. Meanwhile, internal improvements, including an S&S cam plate, oil pump, tappets, and guides, ensure the Milwaukee-Eight delivers its power with authority and reliability. Chassis performance received equal attention. The front end benefits from hlins fork springs, while a fully adjustable hlins rear shock sharpens composure and control. To match the bikes newfound pace, braking performance was comprehensively upgraded, with Brembo M4 monobloc radial callipers fitted front and rear, delivering improved feel, consistency, and serious stopping power. MORE HARLEY-DAVISON CUSTOMS TO COME As highlighted in last weeks newsletter, Stockwell is returning to his custom roots in the new year, bringing bold, head-turning Harley-Davidson designs to the LIND H-D Network.

MORE STORIES Wed, 17 Dec 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/triumph-thruxton-and-tracker-400-unveiled Triumph Thruxton and Tracker 400 Unveiled PUBLISHED 16.12.2025 Triumph has unveiled two new exciting additions to the award-winning 400 range for 2026. For the first time, Triumph introduces a flat-track-inspired motorcycle with the launch of the all-new Tracker 400, while the hotly anticipated Thruxton 400, already turning heads in India, makes its global debut, bringing iconic cafe racer style to riders everywhere. These two fun and agile machines blend beautiful retro styling with unmistakable Triumph DNA and feature an enhanced TR-Series engine, delivering 42PS at 9,000rpm. With a higher rev limit and stronger top-end performance, this latest evolution offers a 5% increase in peak power. Both models combine premium quality and accessible pricing, delivering exceptional value for money. The Tracker 400 features flat and wide handlebars and repositioned footpegs for a dominating riding position. Supported by a dedicated chassis for sharper handling and an engaged rider experience. Its design incorporates a seat cowl, number board, boxy fuel tank, fly screen and newly styled wheels, paired with Pirelli MT60 RS tyres. Available in Raci ng Yellow, Phantom Black and Aluminium Silver Gloss, the Tracker 400 exudes flat track character and presence on the road. The Thruxton 400 is a contemporary interpretation of the iconic Thruxton silhouette, bringing authentic cafe racer style with a modern edge. Available in Carnival Red, Pearl Metallic White with Storm Grey, and Metallic Racing Yellow, it features clip-on handlebars and rear-set footpegs for a sporty riding position, complemented by a refined suspension set-up for agile, responsive handling. Both models offer exceptional value, with class-leading service intervals and a comprehensive two-year, unlimited mileage warranty that also covers Genuine Triumph accessories. This combination ensures a lower cost of ownership and greater peace of mind for owners Paul Stroud, Chief Commercial Officer, Triumph Motorcycles, said: The Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X, and more recently the Scrambler XC, have been a global hit, winning multiple awards and driving record sales. These bikes have brought more younger riders and more women into the Triumph family than ever before, proving the appeal of a premium brand in this market. This success reflects Triumphs unique position in the segment, blending high-quality finishing, modern performance and beautiful retro styling. Now, with the Tracker 400 and Thruxton 400, were building on that momentum with two brand-new models that give customers even more choice. Powered by the latest TR-Series engine, the most powerful iteration yet, these bikes deliver distinctive character and engaging performance. The Tracker 400 brings stripped-back flat track attitude, while the Thruxton 400 reimagines an iconic name with authentic caf racer style for a new generation. Together, these models offer riders more fun, more style and an even sportier ride." TRACKER 400: FLAT TRACK STYLE FOR THE ROAD The new Tracker 400 draws inspiration from flat track racing, capturing the raw, stripped-back aesthetic and competitive spirit synonymous with this class, channelling the style and attitude of bikes built for the oval dirt track. Stripped Back Attitude:Designed to stand out in the crowd, the Tracker 400 combines race-inspired styling with aggressive lines for an unmistakable flat track silhouette. Classic Triumph design cues and the iconic engine profile make this a true Modern Classic. The tracker-style fuel tank, with its sculpted knee cut-outs, pairs seamlessly with the fly screen and colour-coded seat cowl and the dual-spoke wheels with blocky dual-purpose Pirelli MT60 RS tyres deliver a bold, sporty stance. As a Triumph Modern Classic, it features the signature engine profile with powder-coated covers and bright-machined cylinder head fins. That unmistakable Triumph DNA runs throughout, with a classic round LED headlight up front and flowing twin upswept silencers at the rear. The Tracker 400 is offered in three striking race-inspired colour schemes, each showcasing bold Tracker lettering on the fuel tank, set against sleek racing stripes with dramatic mud-splatter detailing that extends seamlessly onto the seat cowl. A distinctive number board proudly displaying 400 pays tribute to legendary flat track racers. The Aluminium Silver Gloss scheme is accented with Racing Red graphics across the fuel tank, seat cowl, number board, and wheels. Racing Yellow delivers a vibrant statement with its bold yellow tank and seat cowl, contrasted by Phantom Black elements and Racing Yellow highlights on the number board and wheels. For a darker, more aggressive look, Phantom Black combines moody black with Dark Silver, Vanilla White, and Pearl Metallic White accents across the tank, cowl, number board, and wheels. An Enhanced Riding Position:Upright and elbows out thats the essence of Flat Track style. Wider handlebars, set 23mm broader and 134mm lower than those on the Speed 400, to enhance the bikes dynamic stance. Footpegs are repositioned 86mm further back and 27mm higher, creating a confident, aggressive posture. These ergonomics ensure that the Tracker 400 rides exactly how it looks, with a bold and commanding presence. Engineered for fun, sporty performance, the Tracker 400 has a dedicated chassis and premium suspension setup. Up front, black anodised 43mm upside-down big piston forks offer 140mm of travel, while the rear gas monoshock RSU provides 130mm of travel with preload adjustment for pillion riding. Dual-purpose tyres with a blocky tread pattern complete the look, offering flat track style with road-focused grip and handling. The Tracker 400 integrates advanced rider technology without compromising its classic aesthetic. A seat height of 805mm with features like torque-assist clutch, switchable traction control, and ABS make the ride accessible and enjoyable. A contemporary single-dial analogue speedometer paired with a digital tachometer delivers essential information at a glance, with all wiring neatly hidden to preserve the clean, timeless Triumph look. Exciting and Characterful Engine: The latest model features a new and more powerful iteration of Triumphs class-leading TR series engine. This has been achieved through a combination of new mechanical parts, including a revised camshaft profile, along with a new engine tune. This results in a five per cent increase in peak power, now producing 42PS peak power at 9,000 RPM, with a higher rev limit and stronger peak power at the top of the rev range. This allows the Tracker 400 to rev harder and higher, for an exhilarating and addictive throttle response that encourages the rider to exploit the performance available and ride this bike with the attitude it deserves. The enhanced engine also retains the 37.5Nm of peak torque, with 80 per cent of this available from 3,000 RPM, offering that linear, torque-rich performance that adapts to any riding scenario. The ride-by-wire throttle ensures intuitive throttle response all the way through the six-speed gearbox. Attention to Detail:Triumph Motorcycles is committed to delivering exceptional performance and uncompromising quality and the Tracker 400 is no exception. Built from premium components and precision-crafted parts, every detail is designed to optimise performance and elevate the riding experience. Powerful four-piston radial calipers deliver strong, progressive braking performance, complemented by robust cast aluminium wheels and a swingarm that addstrength and sophistication to the Trackers design. From the upside-down forks providing high-performance suspension to the precision-machined cooling fins, Triumphs meticulous attention to detail ensures a clean, uncluttered finish with no exposed wires, cables, or hoses to spoil the bikes classic look. This attention to detail extends to the Tracker 400s flawless paintwork, delivering a finish that exudes precision and quality. The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White THE REVIVAL OF THE THRUXTON NAME The legendary Thruxton name makes its return with the all-new Thruxton 400, a modern interpretation of an icon that defined an era. Celebrated for its unmistakable cafe racer attitude and racing heritage, the Thruxton has always embodied style, performance, and character. Now, that spirit is reimagined for a new generation, delivering the perfect balance of timeless design and contemporary engineering. Head Turning Caf Racer Design:The classic Triumph engine profile is complemented by a sculpted fuel tank, which is a fusion of flowing lines and sharp contemporary contours, with the Triumph triangle badge. A new fairing houses the classic round LED headlight, contrasting with the sporty and stylish bar-end mirrors, blending tradition with innovation. Clip-on handlebars lower the front end for a more assertive stance, while the colour-coded bullet seat cowl, shortened rear mudguard and number plate hanger, plus a compact LED light, contribute to a minimalist, purposeful rear. The upswept sports silencer completes the look, with a seamless, flowing exhaust line. Four vibrant colour schemes feature sleek graphics and sporty contrast accents on the fuel tank, fairing and seat cowl, while the Matt Phantom Black side panel carries an aluminium finish badge bearing the Thruxton name. The Phantom Black and Aluminium scheme features wide diagonal stripes of colour across the fuel tank and seat cowl, with Racing Red accents on the fairing and seat cowl. The Carnival Red Gloss with Aluminium Silver option features a striking Carnival Red fairing. The Pearl Metallic White and Storm Grey paint scheme includes flashes of Caribbean Blue on the seat cowl and fairing, while the Metallic Racing Yellow with Aluminium Silver design features a Metallic Racing Yellow fairing with Phantom Black accents and Aluminium stripes that carry through on the fuel tank and seat cowl. An All-new Sportier Ride: With optimised ergonomics and a dedicated chassis, the new Thruxton 400 delivers a fun and sporty ride. The new chassis and revised suspension setup provide a sharper, more responsive feel, while the sporty handlebar and footpeg position give an engaged riding experience. The new clip-on handlebars are 40mm narrower and 246mm lower than those on the Speed 400, while the rear-set footpegs are positioned 86mm further back and 27mm higher. This rotates the rider forward, creating a true cafe racer riding posture. Black anodised 43mm upside-down big piston forks with 135mm of travel optimised for sporty poise and response, and a preload-adjustable gas mono-shock rear suspension unit with 130mm wheel travel, enhancing the bikes agility and control for a more focused ride.

For Charlie Stockwell and the team, the modern Bonneville is a raw canvas, ready to be shaped into something more personal. Classic British heritage stays at the core, while creative custom work gives each build its own identity. Cino sits alongside named T120 builds, such as Twiggy, Raven, and Hurricane, forming part of an evolving series of modern classics with character. Each one starts from the same foundations, but leaves the workshop with its own stance, attitude, and story. INTRODUCING The Cino The Cino T120 carries all the Stockwell Bonneville hallmarks, but pushes the formula further. Up front, hlins fork internals sharpen the response, while fully adjustable FOX Racing rear shocks transform the back end. Together, they turn the T120 into a far more precise, planted, and confidence-inspiring machine on real roads. Performance continues with a Zard 22 blacked-out exhaust system. It gives the bike a stronger, more purposeful line through the profile, while opening up a raw soundtrack that suits the T120s torque-rich twin. Visually, the Cino moves into its own space. One-off paintwork, bespoke tank and side panel logos, and carefully chosen details create a warm but gritty presence. The finish combines Cuppacino and Denim Black, a palette that feels both inviting and tough, echoing the balance between comfort and edge that defines the build. BORN FROM A MODERN CLASSIC Underneath it all, Cino remains a Triumph Bonneville T120 at heart. The 1200cc liquid-cooled twin, timeless silhouette, and relaxed ergonomics are still there, giving the bike everyday usability and that familiar modern classic feel. Stockwells approach is to respect that base rather than fight it. Mechanical reliability and core character are retained, while key components are upgraded for a more focused and rewarding ride. The result is a T120 that still feels like a Bonneville, but with a sharper response and a lot more attitude. THE LIND X STOCKWELL DESIGN COLLABORATION The collaboration between Triumph London and Stockwell Design is built around turning Bonnevilles into collectable customs. Each build is given a name, a theme, and a personality of its own. Cino is one of these, a T120 shaped around warm tones, clean lines, and a subtle performance edge. In the workshop, the Bonneville is treated as a canvas for personal expression. Contemporary performance parts sit alongside carefully considered design cues. Some builds lean toward stripped-back simplicity, others toward bold graphics or darker, more aggressive looks. Cino sits right in the middle: calm at first glance, but full of detail once you get close. For riders who want a modern classic that feels like theirs and theirs alone, builds like the Cino T120 showwhat is possible when heritage, craft, and imagination meet in the same space.

MORE STORIES Sat, 22 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/custom-triumph-ghost-scramblera-masterpiece-of-design-and-motorcycle-craftsmanship Custom Triumph Ghost Scrambler: A Masterpiece of Design and Motorcycle Craftsmanship PUBLISHED 21.11.2025 When two worlds of precision design come together, the result can be remarkable. That is exactly what happened when Stockwell Design and LIND Triumph London reunited to create the Ghost Scrambler, a custom Triumph Scrambler 1200 XC that blends timeless elegance, deliberate engineering, and expressive artistry. Informed by the minimalist sophistication of the Leica Ghost Edition digital camera, this bespoke build redefines what a modern custom motorcycle can be: clean, purposeful, and effortlessly distinctive. A Collaboration Driven by Craft At the heart of this project is Charlie Stockwell:renowned custom builder, designer, and long-time Triumph collaborator. Working alongside Triumph Londons expert technicians, Stockwell approached the Ghost Scrambler not as a modification, but as a sculptural redesign. The goal was to elevate the Scrambler 1200 XCs inherent versatility and off-road spirit while infusing it with a refined, almost architectural sense of form. Every panel, component, and finish has been selected or reworked with intention. The familiar Scrambler silhouette remains, but it has been sharpened and purified. Unnecessary visual noise has been stripped away, leaving behind a machine that appears both futuristic and timeless, much like the Leica design language that inspired it. Inspired by Leica: Precision Meets Restraint The influence of the Leica Ghost Edition is present not through literal imitation, but through a shared design philosophy: clean geometry, purposeful functionality, and a commitment to premium materials. Yet on the Ghost Scrambler, several details go beyond philosophy and draw directly from Leicas iconic visual language, thoughtfully translated into motorcycle form. Most striking is the custom headlamp surround, a sculpted piece inspired by the visored ring of a Leica camera lens. Instead of a conventional circular bezel, Stockwell crafted a surround that mirrors the stepped, protective shading found on Leicas lens hoods. The resulting shape gives the front end a distinctive depth and shadow line, echoing the precision machining of photographic equipment while adding a focused, almost cinematic presence to the motorcycles face. The paint and surface finishes also pay homage to Leicas use of premium raw materials, particularly the soft, matte textures of its Ghost Edition bodies. The Ghost Scrambler features finishes that evoke brushed and bead-blasted aluminium, capturing the cool tactility of Leicas raw metal surfaces. These tones were deliberately chosen to let light glide softly across the bikes contours, much like the muted, reflection-controlled surfaces of a high-end camera body designed for discretion. Other components follow the same disciplined aesthetic with minimal fasteners, restrained graphics, precisely machined accents, and a consistent monochrome palette that prioritises purity of form over embellishment. Together, these Leica-inspired cues create a motorcycle that feels engineered with the same intent, clarity, and tactile sophistication as the camera that influenced it. Commissioned with Vision The Ghost Scrambler was commissioned by George Clarke, the acclaimed architect, designer, and television presenter known for his eye for innovative spaces and thoughtful craftsmanship. Clarkes fascination with clean form and functional design made him the ideal patron for this project. For Clarke, the Ghost Scrambler is not merely a motorcycle. It is a personal design statement and an embodiment of his passion for precision, individuality, and mechanical beauty. As a rider and a designer, he sought a machine that would carry his identity with subtle power. Stockwell and the Triumph London team brought that vision to life. Refinement in Every Detail Though the Ghost Scrambler maintains the capable heart of the Triumph Scrambler 1200 XC, its character has been completely transformed: Minimalist bodywork reshaped to emphasise clean geometry Custom finishes that play with soft light and shadow Streamlined components chosen to maintain performance without excess A focused riding position that reflects its purposeful redesign The build demonstrates how restraint can be bold. Instead of chasing drama through loud colours or aggressive shapes, the Ghost Scrambler commands attention through its purity and precision. A Motorcycle With Presence More than a custom build, the Ghost Scrambler represents the intersection of design disciplines in photography, architecture, engineering, and craftsmanship, coalescing into a functioning work of art. It is a machine designed to be ridden, but also appreciated for its conceptual integrity. With Stockwell Designs creative vision, Triumph Londons expertise, and George Clarkes architectural sensibility, the Ghost Scrambler stands as a statement of individuality: confident, composed, and unmistakably original. It's a motorcycle with presence, not just on the road, but in the way it expresses the philosophy behind its creation.

Evolving from the award-winning Street Triple RS, these new models set an even higher benchmark for performance, exclusivity, and track-focused capability. Available for one year only, the new Special Edition Street Triple RX gets the full RX treatment to become the ultimate track weapon. Joining it is the Street Triple Moto2 Edition, limited to just 1,000 units worldwide, crafted for collectors and racing enthusiasts as a celebration of Triumphs exclusive Moto2 partnership. Both bikes deliver race-inspired enhancements that combine cutting-edge technology with exclusive, striking style. Both models now feature fully adjustable hlins NIX30 front suspension for superior feedback and control on the track. This premium upgrade includes adjustable compression and rebound damping, preload adjustment, and 115mm wheel travel, ensuring precise handling in every corner.

Its striking Matt Aluminium Silver finish is paired with a bold Diablo Red rear subframe and matching wheels, creating a dynamic, track-inspired aesthetic that commands attention. This distinctive scheme pays tribute to the original Street Triple 675 RX, honouring its iconic legacy.

Each bike is individually numbered on a billet-machined top yoke, which also carries Moto2 branding, positioned alongside a TFT display featuring a Moto2-branded start-up screen, reinforcing its limited-edition status and collector appeal. Steve Sargent, Chief Product Officer, Triumph Motorcycles said: The success of the Speed Triple 1200 RX has demonstrated the appeal of a sports-focused naked motorcycle, combining precision handling with premium components in a way that resonates with riders who value performance and control. Thats why we are now applying the same ethos to the Street Triple family. The new Street Triple 765 RX delivers sharper geometry, premium components, and a specification that makes it equally at home on fast road rides and dedicated track sessions. The Moto2 Edition is a celebration of our ongoing partnership with Moto2, which has been instrumental in pushing the boundaries of our engine development. This bike gives fans and collectors a rare opportunity to own a slice of Moto2 action. THE RX CROWN The RX name carries a legacy of sport-focused performance within Triumphs line-up. First introduced in 2015, the original Street Triple RX offered riders a sharper, more aggressive alternative to the standard model, quickly becoming a favourite among enthusiasts for its dynamic character and unique styling, cementing RX as a symbol of track-ready capability and exclusivity. For 2026, the RX moniker returns to the Street Triple, following its reappearance on the Speed Triple 1200 RX earlier this year.

The RX-branded performance seat reinforces its track-focused identity, ensuring form and function work seamlessly together. A billet-machined top yoke with a laser-etched RX logo adds a bespoke touch, while branding carried across the silencer and seat completes the cohesive design. The Moto2 Edition takes exclusivity and racing DNA to another level. Its striking Mineral Grey and Crystal White colour scheme, accented by a vibrant Triumph Performance Yellow rear subframe and matching wheel stripe, delivers a sophisticated yet unmistakably sporty aesthetic.

Built alongside the recently covered Bobber RR, this machine was crafted at Triumph North London and showcases the unmistakable influence of Charlie Stockwells custom philosophy:blending refined engineering with raw street attitude. Flat Track Roots, Street-Ready Attitude The Street Tracker takes direct inspiration from Charlies own Flat Track race bikes, which tore through the DTRA National Series with a mix of grit and style. Its silhouette echoes that competitive lineage, while every component has been chosen for both its aesthetic and performance edge. Precision Engineering Meets Custom Craft At the front end, a pair of hlins FSK forks from a Thruxton RS are paired with a Thruxton RS lower yoke and LSL top yoke, complemented by street fighter risers and bars for aggressive control. Out back, Triumph-issued, fully adjustable hlins rear shocks deliver the suspension precision that the brands racing DNA demands. Design That Balances Form and Function The Thruxton RS hubs have been re-laced to 19-inch gold rims, wrapped in Mitas Highway tires to complete that unmistakable flat track stance. A custom-made seat unit and saddle flow seamlessly into the tank line, emphasizing both form and function in a way thats distinctly Stockwell. A Soundtrack to Match Its Presence The exhaust system carries a piece of Stockwells own history, featuring S&S Cycles Grand National mufflers that have been modified to suit the Speed Twins original headers. With removable baffles, the system allows riders to tailor the soundtrack,from a throaty growl to a deep, resonant roar. Honouring the Past, Built for the Future The result is more than a custom motorcycle;its a celebration of two legacies: Triumphs tradition of performance and Stockwell Design & Racings dedication to craftsmanship and culture. The Speed Twin Street Tracker doesnt just honour its roots; it redefines them for the modern road.

So when Charlie teamed up with LIND to customise Triumph Motorcycles, it was only natural that his builds featured S&S Grand National Slip-Ons. At that time, there wasnt a factory-produced S&S exhaust for the Triumph range, so existing systems were modified to fit,sparking curiosity and excitement at S&S HQ in the U.S. The result was a collaborative project to develop a purpose-built Grand National Slip-On for the Triumph 400 models. Fast forward to Spring 2025, and the very first production unit was hand-delivered by Martin Szlagowski of S&S Cycle to Triumph London, marking the official arrival of the Grand National Slip-On for the Speed 400, Scrambler 400 X and now, the Scrambler 400 XC.

The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White MORE STORIES Tue, 04 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/the-bmw-f-450-gsa-new-entry-in-the-gs-adventure-line-up The BMW F 450 GS: A New Entry in the GS Adventure Line-Up PUBLISHED 04.11.2025 The new BMW F 450 GS marks the next step in the GS model family, specifically addressing the 48 hp A2 class with proven GS technology and iconic design. At the EICMA international motorcycle show, BMW Motorrad gave a preview of a fully-fledged GS model already in 2024, which specifically addresses the steadily growing market segment of medium-sized displacement motorcycles. The series version of the BMW F 450 GS consistently lives up to this claim: It is a versatile all-rounder that combines everyday usability, sporty dynamic performance, touring comfort, and off-road capabilities. In the "GS Trophy" equipment variant, it follows in the footsteps of the concept vehicle. It adopts its striking design language and high-quality, high-tech components, including magnesium parts for maximum performance and low weight. With its balanced power-to-torque ratio, low weight, and characteristic GS ergonomics, the F 450 GS provides riding fun and confidence from the first meter. The new F 450 GS thus combines the classic GS spirit with a modern, accessible, and simultaneously powerful approach. "With the BMW F 450 GS, we are addressing a particularly broad target audience. This motorcycle is aimed at anyone who valuesmaximum agility, versatility, pure riding pleasure, and cutting-edge technology regardless of whether they are on the road every day, on long tours, or simply looking for a light, dynamic, and uncomplicated bike. The current trend toward downsizing, i.e., switching from heavy motorcycles to compact and versatile machines, demonstrates the great interest in this segment. The F 450 GS offers the ideal combination of playful handling, manoeuvrability, riding dynamics, and high-quality equipment without compromising on quality or technical performance. Astrid Neudecker, Product Manager BMW F 450 GS The BMW Easy Ride Clutch (ERC) is a technical highlight and a further development of a centrifugal clutch. This system eliminates the need to manually operate the clutch lever while riding. This applies to all situations, from starting off and changing gears to demanding off-road manoeuvres. BMW Motorrad is setting a new standard in this vehicle class. A range of attractive options will be added at the time of market launch: The F 450 GS can be equipped with an Akrapovic end muffler and original BMW Motorrad cross-spoke wheels on request. The result is a package that combines sporty dynamic performance, technical innovation and GS DNA perfectly. Performance developed from scratch: A confident companion for both road and off-road riding. The completely redesigned BMW F 450 GS is a sporty adventure bike that complements the current BMW Motorrad model portfolio, with developers focusing on excellent handling characteristics, strong performance, durability, and optimum accessibility. The design focuses on the consistent implementation of the current GS design language. With iconic features such as the LED headlight with "X" daytime riding light and the distinctive flyline, the bike's affiliation with the BMW Motorrad GS family is clear at first glance. Completely redesigned, smooth-running and characterful two-cylinder in-line engine with 135-degree crankpin offset for dynamic riding pleasure on asphalt and off-road. At the heart of the new BMW F 450 GS is a completely newly developed two-cylinder in-line engine with fuel injection and a stainless steel exhaust system on the right-hand side. The new F 450 GS impresses with its powerful performance and pulling power, delivering a power output of 35 kW (48 hp) at 8,750 rpm and a maximum torque of 43 Nm at 6,750 rpm. Thanks to the use of high-tech materials and optimised internal friction, these performance values are achieved with exactly 420 cm. This makes the engine one of the most compact and powerful in the A2 two-cylinder segment. It not only meets the strict EU5+ requirements but is also particularly economical, consuming just 3.8 litres per 100 km. A range of over 350 km can be achieved in conjunction with the 14-litre tank. The maintenance interval is the standard 10,000 km for BMW motorcycles. Unique on the motorcycle market, the engine features a crankshaft with crankpins offset by 135 degrees and, in conjunction with a single balance shaft, sets a technical exclamation mark: this design ensures a characterful, emotional ride while simultaneously reducing unwanted vibrations to an exceptionally low level. Easy Ride Clutch (ERC) for a significant increase in dynamics, operating comfort, and riding comfort. A technical highlight of the new BMW F 450 GS is the Easy Ride Clutch (ERC). Its core is a precision centrifugal unit in the clutch, which engages the clutch depending on engine speed. This system is standard on the GS Trophy variant and available as an optional accessory for all other model variants. In combination with the Shift Assistant Pro, manual operation of the clutch lever is completely eliminated from starting off and gear changes to demanding manoeuvres. The clutch lever, however, remains intact and allows the rider to intervene manually at any time if necessary for example, to lift the front wheel over an obstacle or to improve control when descending on slippery surfaces. Technologically, the ERC is based on an advanced centrifugal clutch. Unlike conventional systems, it remains closed during overrun. This creates natural, familiar, and predictable handling at all times comparable to a conventional clutch. The engine brake remains fully active until just before a stop; only when the idle speed is reached does the ERC automatically open, reliably preventing the engine from stalling. The system ensures greater dynamics, control, and comfort whether manoeuvring in city traffic, on winding roads, or off-road. Six-speed transmission and left-mounted secondary drive. Shift Assistant Pro for quick upshifts and downshifts without clutch operation. The likewise newly designed six-speed transmission transmits torque to the left-hand secondary drive via an X-ring chain. For fast upshifts and downshifts without clutch operation, the new F 450 GS is offered with Shift Assistant Pro in all equipment variants except the basic variant. This can be retrofitted to the basic version. The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White "Rain," "Road," and "Enduro" riding modes, as well as ABS Pro, DBC, DTC, and MSR (engine drag control), are standard features for a high level of riding enjoyment and safety. An additional "Enduro Pro" riding mode is available starting with the Exclusive trim variant. The BMW F 450 GS offers three riding modes as standard: "Rain", "Road" and "Enduro", allowing the motorcycle to be adapted to suit individual preferences. Standard equipment also includes ABS Pro, Dynamic Brake Control (DBC), Dynamic Traction Control (DTC) and engine drag torque control (MSR). The additional Enduro Pro mode, which is used from the Exclusive equipment variant onwards, is designed for off-road use with coarse-tread off-road tires and allows the ABS on the rear wheel to be deactivated. Newly developed chassis with tubular steel frame for optimal rigidity, robustness, and driving precision. Short wheelbase for agile and playful handling. The new BMW F 450 GS also features a completely new chassis concept. Playful handling, optimum accessibility, high riding precision and riding stability were the developers' top priorities. The specially developed lattice-tube frame of the BMW F 450 GS consists of welded steel tubes and forged parts. The frame integrates the two-cylinder in-line engine as a supporting element and is designed to be lightweight yet robust. The front wheel is guided via KYB upside-down telescopic forks, while the rear wheel is guided via an aluminum hollow cast double armed swinging arm with a KYB central spring strut featuring progressive damping. Front wheel control is provided by a torsionally rigid KYB upside-down telescopic fork with a 43 mm inner tube diameter. The Sport and GS Trophy variants feature the so-called "sports suspension." The fork is adjustable for rebound and compression damping. Rear wheel control is provided by a closed, and therefore extremely torsionally rigid, yet lightweight, hollow-cast aluminum double-sided swing arm, coupled with a directly connected KYB central spring strut (adjustable spring preload and rebound damping) with travel-dependent damping derived from rally racing, a unique feature in this segment. Wheels and tires tailored to the typical BMW GS applications.The new BMW F 450 GS features lightweight yet robust cast aluminum wheels. It is fitted with tubeless tires for road and off-road use, sized 100/90-19 at the front and 130/80-17 at the rear. Additionally, the Original BMW Motorrad Accessories range offers cross-spoke wheels. A powerful braking system combined with BMW Motorrad ABS Pro ensures safe braking even when leaning. Dynamic Brake Control (DBC) and Dynamic Brake Light are additional safety features.The front wheel of the new BMW F 450 GS features a floating single-disc brake with a Brembo 4-piston fixed caliper and a 310 mm brake disc diameter for superior, stable deceleration. A single disc brake with 1-piston floating caliper and 240 mm diameter is used on the rear wheel. The new BMW F 450 GS already comes standard with BMW Motorrad ABS Pro. ABS Pro also offers increased safety when braking in curves by enabling ABS-assisted braking while leaning. Dynamic Brake Control (DBC) offers increased safety when braking, even in difficult situations, by preventing unintentional throttle application. The dynamic brake light effectively alerts following vehicles to the braking motorcycle ahead. Optimal ergonomics and equipment for comfortable, playful, and agile motorcycling on and off-road. A sophisticated ergonomic triangle and a high, close-to-the-body handlebar made of tapered aluminium tubing ensure an ideal riding position in all conditions. The body and the 14-litre fuel tank below it are designed for optimal support and good knee contact, both when seated and while standing off-road. A wide range of accessories are available to meet the individual needs of riders, including a handlebar riser, a rally seat, and the option of a low seat. Three different seat variants, adjustable hand levers, a handlebar riser, and secure footrests with height-adjustable gearshift and footbrake levers ensure optimal riding comfort both on and off-road.The new BMW F 450 GS comes with a two-part seat (845 mm) as standard. The low Black rider's seat (830 mm) and the high Rallye seat in Black/White/Red (865 mm), available as part of the Original BMW Motorrad Accessories, can be adapted to individual requirements. The standard adjustable handlebar levers and the optional 20 mm handlebar risers made of high-strength anodised silver aluminium offer further adjustment options. The new BMW F 450 GS comes standard with a footrest system with removable rubber grips, whose serrated profile makes it suitable for off-road use. A very practical feature is the easy height adjustment of the foot brake lever by 20 mm in two positions to suit individual needs for on- and off-road riding. The gearshift lever is also height-adjustable. Wider enduro footrests are included starting with the Exclusive version or are available as optional accessories. High touring and everyday performance thanks to sophisticated vehicle and weather protection, as well as a comprehensive storage concept.The modular design of the available windshields (optional accessories) allows for individual customization. Depending on the intended use and personal preference, you can choose between the high Tour windshield (height-adjustable) and the clear or tinted Rally windshield. This allows the comfort and wind and weather protection of the new BMW F 450 GS to be tailored specifically to individual needs. In the event of a fall or tip-over, Original BMW Motorrad Accessories offer effective ways to protect your motorcycle from damage, including engine guards, engine protection bars, front axle protectors, and other protective components. The diverse range of special accessories whether side bags, tail bags, luggage rolls, tank bags, luggage racks, or top cases offers maximum flexibility for every application. Powerful LED light units as standard. Connectivity featuring a large, perfectly readable 6.5-inch TFT display that provides comprehensive information and functionality.

MORE STORIES Mon, 03 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/triumph-bobber-rrwhere-custom-design-meets-racing-heritage Triumph Bobber RR: Where Custom Design Meets Racing Heritage PUBLISHED 01.11.2025 When two creative forces come together with a shared vision for performance and style, the result is something truly special. The Triumph Bobber RR is one of the first custom machines born from the partnership between LIND and Stockwell Design back in 2023, and it perfectly captures the essence of both brands: a union of British engineering and bespoke craftsmanship. At its core, the Bobber RR takes Triumphs unmistakable silhouette and reimagines it through a performance-driven lens. This isnt a track bike,yet every inch of it hints at racing DNA. The build features a range of components that merge cutting-edge technology with artisanal attention to detail, setting a new standard for what a modern custom Bobber can be. Performance Meets Precision The Bobber RR benefits from a series of upgrades that transform both its ride and its presence. hlins front forks and a custom-made rear hlins damper give the machine a planted, confident feel, offering the kind of feedback and precision typically reserved for high-performance race bikes. Thanks to Stockwells direct connection with hlins Racing AB, these components arent off-the-shelf parts;theyre exclusive, tailor-made pieces developed through collaboration and trust. Its a detail that reflects the builds ethos: nothing is added unless it serves both purpose and performance. The braking system has also been given a significant upgrade, with a pair of radial callipers from British manufacturer HEL Performance. In recent years, HEL has become a trusted supplier for race teams not only in the UK but also across Europe and the USA,making them a fitting choice for a machine that embodies both style and substance. Sound, Form, and Function For decades, the exhaust has been one of the first components modified by riders,whether to refine the sound, sharpen the look, or both. In the case of the Bobber RR, the goal was to achieve both while preserving the flowing lines of the original Triumph headers. To accomplish this, S&S Cycles USA,one of Stockwells long-standing partners,was brought into the fold. Their Grand National Slip-Ons were carefully modified to fit the original Bobber headers, maintaining the visual harmony of the bike while giving it a deeper, more assertive tone. At the time, S&S didnt produce any components for the Triumph range. But that collaboration sparked something larger,leading to the development of the S&S Grand National Slip-On, now available for all Triumph 400 models. Born from the joint efforts between Stockwell and the S&S team in the US, it stands as a testament to how innovation can emerge from custom creativity. Design That Speaks Without Shouting Visually, the Bobber RR retains much of the original Triumphs elegance. The bodywork received only subtle modification,most notably the rear fender, which was trimmed back to create a cleaner, sportier line. A set of racing number boards were added to emphasise the bikes track-inspired character without overwhelming its minimalist design. To complete the transformation, Image Design Custom,who have painted Stockwell Design bikes for the past 17 years,applied a bespoke finish. The combination of Vivid Black and Graphite, accented with subtle Stratos Gold detailing, gives the Bobber RR a timeless yet contemporary aesthetic. Its bold enough to turn heads, but refined enough to respect the machines heritage. A Sportier Stance Beneath the sculpted frame sit 17-inch aluminium rims wrapped in Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa tyres,a setup that not only enhances the bikes handling but also adds a sharper, more aggressive stance. To complement the upgraded suspension and achieve the desired riding position, a pair of Triumph TFC Thruxton yokes were modified to allow for the Street Tracker handlebars, giving the rider a more upright, aggressive stance while maintaining precise handling and control. The result is a motorcycle that feels alive;agile, responsive, and unmistakably Triumph, but with an attitude thats all its own. A Partnership Forged in Passion The LIND x Stockwell Design collaboration is about more than custom motorcycles; its about pushing the boundaries of whats possible when design and engineering speak the same language. With Stockwells heritage rooted in performance and craftsmanship, and LINDs reputation for excellence within the Triumph community, the Bobber RR represents a shared vision one that celebrates individuality without compromising capability. Every line, every component, and every decision in the build tells the story of a machine created not just to be ridden, but to be experienced. The Triumph Bobber RR isnt merely a showcase of design;its a statement of intent.

MORE STORIES Sat, 01 Nov 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/triumph-reveals-all-new-trident-800made-to-upstage Triumph Reveals All-New Trident 800: Made To Upstage PUBLISHED 28.10.2025 Triumph Motorcycles has revealed the all-new Trident 800, a brand new naked middleweight roadster designed to deliver exhilarating performance, dynamic urban attitude, and a high-energy riding experience. With its compact, muscular stance and stripped-back styling, the Trident 800 brings a bold new edge to Triumphs roadster line-up. With its responsive 798cc triple engine and triple throttle bodies, the Trident 800 offers addictive real-world performance thats ready to thrill. From the instant throttle response, to the unrelenting mid-range torque and thrilling top-end power, the ride is both visceral and refined, backed by Triumphs unmistakable triple soundtrack channelled through the upswept sports-style silencer. Built for serious fun, the Trident 800s lightweight chassis and high specification adjustable Showa suspension deliver a high-energy riding experience with instinctive agility and confident control. Wide bars, a compact frame and assertive riding position combine to create a bike that reacts immediately to every input, flicks effortlessly through corners and stays composed at speed. Just 198kg fully fuelled, with grippy Michelin tyres, its light on its feet and always ready to deliver the grin factor. The Trident 800 is equipped with intuitive, rider-focused technology designed to enhance every ride. Three riding modes tailor throttle response and traction control to suit the conditions, while lean-sensitive Optimised Cornering ABS and Optimised Cornering Traction Control deliver confidence and control in every turn. With My Triumph Bluetooth connectivity, cruise control, and a clean and clear TFT dash, the Trident 800 keeps you dialled in and in the moment. Blending rebellious energy with refined Triumph roadster DNA, its sculpted tank and trim tail create a lean, modern silhouette, while premium finishes, from brushed aluminium to bold colour schemes and contrasting gold-coloured wheels, amplify its dynamic presence. Whether parked kerbside or carving through city streets, the Trident 800 delivers a compelling blend of attitude, performance and precision. Steve Sargent, Chief Product Officer, Triumph Motorcycles said: The incredible popularity of the Trident 660 and the Street Triple 765 RS has shown us just how much riders in this segment value a thrilling, confidence-inspiring ride thats packed with character and technology. With the launch of the Trident 800, weve taken that winning formula and dialled it up, delivering even more road-focused capability and excitement. With the Trident 800, weve focused on delivering the kind of performance and character that riders want in the real world. The all-new engine with triple throttle bodies provides maximum engagement on everyday roads, and weve paired that with a lightweight, high-spec chassis and adjustable Showa suspension. We know this customer is looking for rider-focused technology like lean-sensitive Optimised Cornering ABS and Traction Control, Triumph Shift Assist, and cruise control to enhance the riding experience without distracting from it. This bike is for riders who want maximum excitement, anytime, anywhere. This opens the door to a whole new audience of riders looking for a fun, adrenaline-fuelled, purposeful ride. All-New Triple Engine At the heart of the Trident 800 is Triumphs all-new 798cc triple, engineered for pulse-pounding excitement. It reacts instantly in any gear, delivering a wave of torque and a howling top end that surges all the way to the 11,500 rpm redline. Producing 115PS at 10,750 rpm, and a peak 84Nm of torque at 8,500 rpm, the triples addictive mid-range drive is accompanied by a deep induction roar through the triple throttle bodies, amplified by the redesigned airbox and intake trumpet system to optimise airflow and induction sound. The result is a deep, throaty growl under load and the unmistakable Triumph triple howl at high revs. Internally, the engine features a twist-forged crankshaft, unique camshaft and balancer, forged conrods, and high-compression pistons, all designed to maximise performance and durability. The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White Effortless Handling and Agility Backing up the engine is a chassis built for high-energy riding, with a lightweight frame and adjustable Showa suspension which deliver razor-sharp handling. The split seat is 810mm high, with a narrow standover, shaped to hold the rider in place. Up front, 41mm upside-down Showa forks feature big-piston, separate-function damping, with adjustable compression and rebound. The rear Showa monoshock offers preload and rebound adjustment for a perfectly tuned ride. Braking is handled by twin 4-piston radial calipers gripping 310mm discs, fed by braided steel lines for strong, progressive stopping power. Rider-Focused Technology The Trident 800 is equipped with smart, rider-focused technology designed to enhance the ride without distraction. At its core are three riding modes, Road, Sport and Rain, which tailor throttle response and traction control to suit the conditions. Whether dialling up performance or prioritising extra peace of mind in wet weather, the system ensures the rider remains in control and connected to the road. Advanced lean-sensitive Optimised Cornering ABS and Traction Control provide added confidence through turns, using real-time data to adjust braking and power delivery based on lean angle. Power is delivered through a slick 6-speed gearbox, with Triumph Shift Assist enables clutch-less up and down gear changes for seamless acceleration while cruise control adds convenience on longer journeys. Connectivity and visibility are equally refined. The My Triumph Bluetooth system allows seamless control of music, calls and turn-by-turn navigation via the left-hand switchcube, with information displayed on a clean, round 3.5-inch colour TFT screen. The all-LED lighting system, including a distinctive round headlight with DRL signature, integrated tail light and self-cancelling indicators, ensures the Trident 800 stands out day or night, combining modern design with everyday practicality. Naked Style with Attitude Visually, the Trident 800 hits hard. Its naked design is all muscle and intent, blending sharp surfaces with smooth curves to create a commanding profile and athletic poise. The wide, chiseled 14 litre tank flows seamlessly into the contoured seat and sleek tail unit, while the short upswept silencer and minimal number plate hanger keep the rear lean and purposeful. A colour-coded belly pan and flyscreen add aerodynamic edge and visual cohesion, reinforcing the bikes dynamic roadster stance. Every detail of the Trident 800 has been crafted to deliver a premium finish. The embossed seat logo adds a subtle touch of refinement, while the lightweight cast aluminium wheels, in a striking gold finish, amplify the bikes bold, unapologetic style. The wheel design complements all three colour options: Ash Grey with Diablo Red detailing, Carnival Red with Graphite accents, and Jet Black for a darker, moodier vibe. The Trident 800s styling can be further enhanced with a range of Genuine Triumph Accessories, allowing riders to tailor the bike to their own aesthetic. Options include a sleek Akrapovi silencer, with a titanium wrap and carbon fibre end cap, designed to elevate the bikes sporty silhouette.

Delivering enhanced performance, greater comfort and new rider-focused technology, these key updates elevate the rider experience, while preserving the distinctive character and heritage that define the Bonneville name. Blending timeless appeal and modern innovation, targeted enhancements also extend to the Bonneville T100, T120, T120 Black, and Scrambler 1200 XE. Standout updates to the Scrambler 900 include a more refined chassis, upgraded Showa suspension and radial brakes for improved capability both on and off the road. Lightweight aluminium wheel rims further enhance the Scramblers handling responses, alongside the introduction of lean-sensitive Optimised Cornering ABS and Traction Control. A new modern instrument cluster, full LED lighting, and improved connectivity meet the needs of modern riders, while preserving the Scramblers authentic identity. The Bonneville Bobber and Speedmaster both gain a larger 14 litre fuel tank and updated bodywork, giving both models a more muscular silhouette and an even greater presence. The Bobber now has a wider and more generously padded floating seat for improved comfort, while the Speedmaster gains wider seats for both rider and pillion, and straighter handlebars for a more natural riding position, perfect for exploiting the improved fuel range from the larger tank. Meeting the needs of the modern rider, cruise control has been integrated as standard and new lightweight aluminium rims add even greater agility, ensuring easy, effortless handling. For the first time, an A2 licence restrictor kit will be available as an accessory for the Bobber and Speedmaster, improving accessibility for new riders in Europe.

While care has been taken to ensure the modern classic aesthetic and distinctive Bonneville silhouette are preserved, subtle styling updates to each model ensure the gradual evolution of the Bonneville design, keeping it relevant, contemporary and at the forefront of modern classic style. The T100, T120, and T120 Black turn heads with new hand-finished paint schemes and coachline detailing, and a new circular graphic on the side panels, which frames the Bonneville logo in silver or gold, celebrating the name that started it all. Speaking about the range, Paul Stroud, Chief Commercial Officer at Triumph Motorcycles, said: This is the authentic modern classic, and the Bonneville range continues to evolve because our riders expect it to. They want timeless style, but they also want technology that works for them, performance they can rely on, and details that feel considered. Across the range, weve refined what matters and kept what makes these bikes special. For 2026, every Bonneville model has been carefully updated to offer more capability, comfort, and style, without losing or compromising the character that defines them. Every detail has been obsessively refined to make the design look effortless.

Josh Spinks, riding for Triumph West London, clinched the Open Pro Championship aboard the new Triumph TF 450-RC and closed the season with an emphatic overall victory at the legendary Foxhill circuit. From a conversation to a championship:For Spinks, this season was about more than results. It began, as he puts it, around a coffee table with my good friend and sponsor Mark Williams just an idea that turned into a year-long campaign filled with graft, refinement, and belief in something new. The TF 450-RC, Triumphs first modern motocross contender, proved itself immediately. Precise, balanced, and fast where it counted, it allowed Josh to focus on the flow, not the fight. Week after week, that combination of calm precision and relentless pace delivered results. Foxhill as the perfect ending: Heading into the final round, the title was still mathematically alive. A handful of points separated Spinks from the top of the standings, but when rival Christopher Mills was ruled out through injury, the door opened. Josh only needed to finish one moto to secure the crown but instead, he went for the win. In Moto 1, he shadowed Carlton Husband and Neville Bradshaw through the opening laps before finding his rhythm and taking second, enough to lock in the title. In Moto 2, with the pressure gone, Spinks showed his full hand overtaking Husband in the closing stages to take the race win and the overall victory. Behind him, Husband and Bradshaw rounded out the podium, while Tyla Hooleys late-season form earned him runner-up honours in the final standings. The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White The TF 450-RC delivers: For Triumph and our Triumph West London team, the result was more than silverware it was impressive validation. The TF 450-RCs first competitive season ended with a championship title, confirming its performance credentials on one of Britains toughest circuits. From its poise through Foxhills ruts to its control on the hardpack, the TF 450-RC proved every bit the modern race machine Triumph promised. Josh Spinks on the season: Finished it with a race win and overall victory here at Foxhill! Absolutely full of cold but dug deep and had the pace all day. Im enjoying my riding more than ever because of the people in my circle. They keep it fun and make it happen. Im very grateful. Spinks, who balances his racing with JSMX Coaching and the Let's Torque Bikes podcast, sees these worlds feeding each other. I keep racing to keep learning to teach from real experience. The more substance behind what I teach, the better. No shortcuts, no BS. A season to remember: At 33, Josh Spinks is riding with the freedom of someone who has nothing left to prove and still finds new reasons to love the sport. For Triumph, its a return to form that couldnt have been scripted better: a British rider, a British brand, and a championship-winning debut. Congratulations to Josh Spinks, Triumph West London, and the entire team behind the TF 450-RC a landmark first season that sets the tone for whats to come! If you're interested in hearing more about Josh's story or getting your hands on a new TF 450-RC, speak to our proud experts and enthusiasts at Triumph West London today. MORE STORIES Thu, 09 Oct 2025 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/new-ducati-multistrada-v4-rallydesigned-for-unlimited-exploration New Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally: designed for unlimited exploration PUBLISHED 09.10.2025 Borgo Panigale (Bologna, Italy), 7 October 2025 With the latest edition of the Ducati World Premire 2026, the Borgo Panigale manufacturer presents the new Multistrada V4 Rally, which in its 2026 version becomes even more globetrotting. This new Rally is the result of years of development of the Multistrada V4 family, the model with which Ducati was the first to introduce a MotoGP-derived V4 engine with a counter-rotating crankshaft to the segment, along with radar systems such as Adaptive Cruise Control and Blind Spot Detection. The V4 Rally is the Multistrada aimed at lovers of long journeys. A bike that since its launch in 2023 has proven to be an unstoppable adventure companion, capable of conquering unexplored places, reaching them in maximum comfort. The bike for discovering the world without stopping at anything, alone or with a partner. The new liveries, in Jade Green with gold wheels and Ducati Red with a brushed fuel tank, make the new Multistrada V4 Rally immediately recognizable. A distinctive look that further enhances its technical features: grand touring comfort, great range thanks to a 30-litre fuel tank, and off-road capability thanks to the suspension with longer travel, reinforced engine guards, and spoked wheels. These features are complemented by new chassis and electronic solutions that enhance its versatility, safety, and performance. The Forward Collision Warning anticipates potential frontal impacts, the new Automatic Lowering Device lowers the bike for easier ground contact, and the advanced strategies for the ABS Electronic Combined Braking System and the semi-active Adaptive Ducati Skyhook Suspension EVO are now even more effective in managing any situation and riding style. The result is a motorcycle perfectly at home on the most challenging mountain passes, dirt roads, or fast, flowing highways around the world. The ideal companion for those who want to push exploration further with maximum comfort and safety, without sacrificing typical Ducati riding pleasure. Like the entire Multistrada V4 family, the Rally offers excellent performance (170 hp), great reliability, and low running costs, with maintenance intervals every 60,000 km and an oil service every 15,000 km or 24 months. Furthermore, like all Multistradas, the V4 Rally is designed to allow Ducatisti to travel without boundaries but with complete peace of mind thanks to the 4EVER Ducati and Roadside Assistance programmes. The former offers a 4-year, unlimited mileage warranty*. The Roadside Assistance program adds roadside assistance, transportation for rider and passenger, a replacement vehicle, and accommodation in a four-star hotel to the standard warranty in the event of problems occurring during the period of coverage. All this with the peace of mind offered by a network of more than 800 official Ducati dealers in over 90 countries worldwide. At home on any road Living up to its name, the Multistrada V4 Rally is a motorcycle that further improves its ability to tackle any road. On the 2026 V4 Rally model, the semi-active suspension with long travel (200 mm) is managed by an evolved Adaptive Skyhook DSS (Ducati Semiactive Suspension) EVO strategy with the introduction of new functions capable of raising the bar for comfort and effectiveness once again. The Multistrada V4 Rally confirms and improves the automatic suspension preload management functions, which ensure a constant setup regardless of the presence of the rider alone, a passenger, and/or luggage, thus maintaining the correct weight distribution. The rider can now change the suspension response even on the move, regardless of the selected Riding Mode, for greater comfort during a relaxed ride or more support and feedback when tackling the curves of a mountain road. On the new Multistrada V4 Rally, the Adaptive DSS EVO system can understand the characteristics of the route being tackled and the rider's riding style at any given moment and adjust the suspension's hydraulic calibration to ensure the best control and comfort based on the situation. With the introduction of the DVO (Ducati Vehicle Observer) algorithm, the Multistrada V4 Rally also features electronic controls that can operate with greater precision. This feature more accurately estimates the motorcycle's position in space and its overall mass, simulating the input of 70 sensors to supplement the data provided by the inertial platform. The Ducati Vehicle Observer, developed by Ducati Corse in MotoGP, refines the ABS Cornering and Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC) strategies. Furthermore, the Electronic Combined Braking System, which can be disengaged and features enhanced strategies and functionality thanks to the DVO, modulates the action on the front and rear brakes to always guarantee ideal performance, now also based on the load. In addition to the front-to-rear strategy, which manages the rear brake even when only the front brake lever is operated, the 2026 Multistrada V4 Rally now features a rear-to-front strategy, which also activates the front brake when only the rear brake lever is operated. This strategy, introduced on the 2025 Multistrada V4, has been optimized for the Rally chassis and refined in its action, reducing the bike's pitch during braking and thus improving comfort, especially when riding with a passenger. Safety and technology On the 2026 Multistrada V4 Rally, the radar suite introduced with the first 2021 V4 model is complemented by the Forward Collision Warning (FCW) function, which alerts the rider of potential collisions with a vehicle ahead with a pop-up on the dashboard. The 2026 Multistrada V4 Rally also offers the rider improved visibility during night riding, with Ducati Cornering Lights and a more effective headlight cluster that reduces the shadow in front of the front wheel. Furthermore, the new Coming Home function allows the low beam to be left on for a few seconds after the ignition is turned off, making it easier to open the garage door when returning home in the dark. The Ducati Brake Light, which activates a high-frequency flash of the rear brake light during sharp deceleration, increases the visibility of the bike for those behind. Finally, the option to mount the accessory rear fog light improves safety on days with poor visibility. The new Multistrada V4 Rally is easier to handle when manoeuvring from a standstill and at low speeds, thanks to the introduction of the Automatic Lowering Device, now equipped with a differentiated strategy for on-road and off-road riding. The bike quickly and automatically "lowers" when speeds drop below 10 km/h. When the rider accelerates, exceeding 50 km/h on the road or 20 km/h off-road, the motorcycle automatically returns to its normal ride height. The system operates automatically or can be deactivated by the rider. The 6.5-inch colour TFT dashboard has been updated in its user interface, offering more efficient and versatile suspension control. The system naturally retains map navigation functionality thanks to the Ducati Connect app, which also supports phone use for answering calls or listening to music, using a helmet equipped with an intercom system. The interface for selecting the heating level for the grips and optional seat is new and more intuitive. Comfortable for rider and passenger The Multistrada V4 Rally is the ideal motorcycle for two-up riding and was designed to maximize the comfort of the rider and their travelling companion. Compared to the Multistrada V4, the windshield, which is 40 mm wider and 20 mm higher, offers greater protection. The position of the pannier mounts has been designed to provide ample legroom for the passenger, who also enjoys greater support and a sense of robustness from the top case thanks to the die-cast support. Furthermore, thanks to the availability of different seat heights for both rider and passenger and a lowered suspension kit, the Multistrada V4 Rally can be customized to suit any two-up configuration. In addition, to facilitate loading and unloading the side panniers and simplify maintenance, the centre stand, now designed to make lifting the bike even easier, is standard. Likewise, to further enhance comfort, heated handgrips are now also standard and adjustable to five temperature levels. Engine and chassis The 1,158 cc V4 Granturismo engine delivers 170 hp (125 kW) of power at 10,750 rpm and 121 Nm (12.3 kgm) at 8,750 rpm, with a particularly linear torque curve to ensure a smooth and progressive response across the rev range. This engine's performance, combined with its total weight of just 66.7 kg, allows the V4 Granturismo to confirm its position as the category benchmark for power and lightness. These figures are combined with refined technical solutions, such as the counter-rotating crankshaft , derived from Ducati Corse's experience in MotoGP, which works "against" the gyroscopic inertia of the wheels, as well as the torque curves dedicated to each individual gear to combine smooth power delivery at low revs, robust torque at medium revs, and power at high revs. Furthermore, the V4 Granturismo is equipped with an extended rear cylinder deactivation strategy, which keeps the rear cylinder bank deactivated at standstill and at low revs, thus benefitting fuel consumption and emissions. On the Multistrada V4 Rally, the engine is assisted by the new Ducati Quick Shift (DQS) 2.0. This system uses a strategy based solely on the gear shift drum's angular position sensor, allowing for a microswitch-free shift rod, offering the rider a more direct feel with a shorter travel. In terms of chassis, the Multistrada V4 Rally maintains its lightweight and compact aluminium monocoque frame, with a double-sided shell-cast aluminium swingarm mounted on a repositioned, higher-mounted pivot, increasing the suspension's anti-squat effect for more precise and effective handling even under full load. For the same purpose, the braking system has been upgraded with a larger 280 mm rear brake disc. The Multistrada V4 Rally is offered exclusively with lightweight, tubeless spoked wheels that contribute to improving the bike's dynamic performance. They are equipped as standard with a TPMS sensor that displays tyre pressure on the dashboard. Trim Levels The new Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally is available in three different trim levels: Radar, featuring Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Spot Detection, and Forward Collision Warning; Adventure Travel & Radar, which adds aluminium side cases and heated rider and passenger seats; and the Full Adventure trim level completes this package with a homologated Akrapovic muffler and a carbon fibre front mudguard. Accessories and Apparel As well as a class-leading standard package, the Multistrada V4 Rally also features a wide range of accessories. In addition to various seats to meet the ergonomic needs of rider and passenger, several windshield options are available, as well as luggage solutions, designed for both the fuel tank and the rear plate - a top case or soft bag - for those who wish to further enhance the Multistrada V4 Rally's all-round touring capabilities. The aluminium panniers, available as an accessory and standard on the Adventure Travel & Radar and Full Adventure trims, now feature a new lock that allows the panniers to be opened and closed without using the key, even when removed from the motorcycle, thus increasing their practicality and versatility. Ducati has also specifically designed some clothing items to fully enjoy the touring capabilities of the Multistrada V4 Rally. The Tour Summer outfit, for example, features large ventilation zones, removable sleeves, and three independent layers, including a thermal lining and waterproof membrane, for comfort in all weather conditions. Or the Strada C5 outfit made of a comfortable, durable stretch fabric with modular thermal protection, thanks to the removable Gore-Tex inner membrane and an inner down jacket that can also be used on its own once the motorcycle is parked. Availability and Colours Deliveries of the 2026 Multistrada V4 Rally will begin in Europe in November 2025. The 2026 Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally is available in two colour schemes: Ducati Red/Brushed Aluminium with black spoked wheels and Jade Green/Brushed Aluminium with gold spoked wheels, both with a brushed aluminium fuel tank Speak to our expert team of Ducati enthusiasts at LIND Ducati North London today to discover the new Multistrada V4 and find out how you can be among the first to make it yours.

MORE STORIES Fri, 03 Oct 2025 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/new-panigale-v4-rthe-maximum-expression-of-ducati-racing-technology New Panigale V4 R: the maximum expression of Ducati racing technology PUBLISHED 24.09.2025 The new Panigale V4 R is the latest descendant of a saga which has its origins in the legendary 996R of 2001. These motorcycles have always been the starting point for the Superbikes that compete in the World Championship, and for this reason they are the most noble of Ducati's sports bikes. The Panigale V4 R is produced in a numbered series, with the model name and serial number proudly displayed on the steering plate. Thanks to constant and close collaboration with Ducati Corse, the Panigale V4R introduces for the first time on a road-approved motorcycle solutions born in competition, such as Corner Sidepods, which Ducati brought to MotoGP for the first time in 2021, and the Ducati Racing Gearbox (DRG) with Ducati Neutral Lock (DNL). The heart of the Panigale V4 R, the 998 cc Desmosedici Stradale R engine, was designed to compete in the Superbike World Championship and has been developed in this latest version in line with Ducati Corse's MotoGP philosophy. It offers more sustained torque and power curves across the entire range of use and superior acceleration. The power curve confirms the maximum value of 218 hp but is more sustained with an average gain of 4 hp from 4,000 rpm up to maximum power, regaining the advantage over the previous model of the same value in top speed, at 16,000 rpm. The torque curve, on the other hand, is positioned higher than the previous model, with a gain of 7% at 6,000 rpm and 3% in the maximum value of 114.5 Nm at 12,000 rpm. These values are the result of the great work done by Ducati engineers to homologate the new Panigale V4 R Euro5+, without sacrificing the pursuit of the best performance on the track. The Panigale V4 R is capable of a top speed of 318.4 km/h, which increases to 330.6 km/h in racing exhaust configuration. Until yesterday, this speed was the exclusive prerogative of MotoGP. The new Panigale V4R inherits the Front Frame and Hollow Symmetrical Swingarm from the seventh generation of Ducati sports bikes, developed in collaboration with Ducati Corse according to specific stiffness values necessary to maximise the performance of the current slick tyres used in the World Superbike Championship. Aerodynamics The new Panigale V4 R is equipped, for the first time ever on a production motorcycle, with Corner Sidepods, a solution introduced by Ducati in 2021 in MotoGP. An innovative aerodynamic content for two wheels as well as wings, introduced in MotoGP back in 2010 by the Borgo Panigale manufacturer. Designed to work at high lean angles, Corner Sidepods generate a ground effect, ensuring a higher level of grip for the tyres and thus allowing higher speeds and therefore lower lap times. When riding, especially at high speeds, the rider clearly feels that the bike, as soon as it reaches the centre of the corner, has already naturally moved to the inside, keeping tighter lines. This means that the acceleration phase when exiting the corner takes place along a tighter radius. The fairing design introduced with the Panigale V4 2025 on the V4 R features new, larger wings capable of generating greater downforce. The load increases by 25%, which translates into an increase in downforce of 4.8 kg at 270 km/h and 6 kg at 300 km/h, with significant benefits in terms of stability during acceleration and precision at high speeds. To achieve the best performance in racing, the Panigale V4 R is equipped with a dynamic front air intake, developed with Ducati Corse, which increases the amount of air drawn into the engine. This increases the intake air pressure and, consequently, the power (+1.3 hp) at maximum speed, greatly benefiting performance on straights. The combination of the seat/tank and footpegs, positioned 10 mm further inwards than on the previous V4 R, provides even better support for the rider in racing use. This ergonomic configuration, inherited from the seventh-generation Ducati sportbike, makes it easier to assume an aerodynamic position, push on the footpegs, and improves control when braking and in the middle of corners, when the rider leans inwards. This makes it easier and less tiring to get the most out of the Panigale V4 R's performance, both on a single lap and in a prolonged session. MotoGP-derived Engine The heart of the Panigale V4 R is the 998 cm Desmosedici Stradale R engine designed to compete in the World Superbike Championship. An engine derived from the Ducati MotoGP, capable of reaching a maximum speed of 16,500 rpm in sixth gear (16,000 in the other gears) and delivering a maximum power output of 218 hp at 15,500 rpm (in Euro-5+ configuration), absolute benchmark values in the category for engines of the same displacement. To create the best possible technical base for the World Superbike Championship, the new Desmosedici Stradale R is equipped with new pistons that are even lighter (-5.1%) and a new crankshaft with increased inertia. This solution, which follows Ducati's development strategy in MotoGP, makes the engine response more progressive, effectively representing a production, homologated version of the Desmosedici used by Marc Marquez and Pecco Bagnaia. Despite the limitations imposed by the exhaust system, which complies with the stringent Euro-5+ homologation, the new Desmosedici Stradale R maintains the maximum power of its predecessor while offering a more sustained torque curve at medium revs. The full potential of this engine is expressed on the track by fitting the racing exhaust, which allows it to reach 235 hp, rising to 239 hp with the use of Ducati Corse Performance Oil. To achieve this performance in compliance with the stringent Euro5+ regulations, Ducati engineers have completely redesigned the intake side and consequently defined exhaust cams with a different profile that optimise combustion. The sub-throttle injectors have been repositioned, increasing combustion efficiency at low revs and duct permeability (+1.5%) in the higher power range. The high-permeability polyester air filter reduces pressure loss compared to a traditional filter, contributing to maximum power delivery. Racing Gearbox The new Panigale V4 R is equipped with a racing-style gearbox layout. The Ducati Racing Gearbox (DRG) positions neutral under the first gear, rather than between first and second, exactly like it happens on MotoGP and factory Superbikes. Thanks to the Ducati Neutral Lock (DNL) system, this solution eliminates the possibility of accidentally engaging neutral gear and finding yourself without engine braking in the final and most delicate phase of braking, when entering corners in first gear. Furthermore, the absence of neutral between first and second gear makes shifting between these two gears faster, smoother and more repeatable than with a traditional gearbox configuration. The Ducati Neutral Lock system, patented by Ducati, can be disengaged by operating the lever on the right handlebar. To engage neutral, the rider must therefore perform the same manoeuvres as the official riders in MotoGP and Superbike. Frame and swingarm The new Panigale V4 R is based on the chassis concepts of the Panigale V4 2025, namely the Front Frame, which has been redesigned to reduce lateral stiffness (-40%), and above all the Hollow Symmetrical Swingarm. These two solutions were strongly desired by Ducati Corse in order to maximise the grip of the current slick tyres and transfer the engine's maximum performance to the ground. The new frame and swingarm allow the bike to close trajectories better, also improving traction when exiting corners and the rider's feeling during acceleration. The Panigale V4 R is equipped with a pressurised hlins NPX25/30 fork with 43 mm stanchions and a mechanical hlins TTX36 shock absorber, with specific settings for the new generation. In addition, the V4 R features the new hlins SD20 steering damper, a first on a production motorcycle, which provides better damping and a wider range of adjustments. Being a bike designed for racing, the V4 R offers extensive possibilities for adjusting the set-up to suit the characteristics of different circuits and the rider's riding style. The swingarm pivot height is adjustable to 4 positions in 2 mm steps. As on the Superbike version, the rear height is adjustable via the suspension tie rod over a wider range (32.4 mm compared to 13 mm of wheel travel) than on the previous V4 R. Finally, the rear shock absorber is designed for the installation of a linear suspension travel sensor. The data transmitted by the sensors is integrated with other signals relating to the motorcycle's operation and is collected via the Ducati Data Logger (DDL), Ducati's new professional data acquisition system that reduces motorcycle set-up times, also available as a Ducati Performance accessory. The new Panigale V4 R is equipped with forged aluminium alloy wheels with 5 tangential spokes, fitted with Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP v4 tyres in sizes 120/70 ZR 17 for the front and 200/60 ZR 17 for the rear. For track use, the same Pirelli slick tyres used in the Superbike World Championship can be fitted without the need for any modifications to the vehicle, in sizes 125/70 at the front and 200/65 at the rear. High-performance compounds are available for these tyres, such as the SC0, the super-soft SCX and the SCQ, reserved for qualifying laps. As for the brakes, the front brake calipers are the new Brembo Hypure, which work in conjunction with 330 mm discs. The system guarantees excellent braking power and greater efficiency in dispersing heat, offering more consistent performance and, therefore, greater effectiveness and safety for the rider in pushing their limits. Electronics The electronics package of the new Panigale V4 R has evolved significantly compared to the previous model, thanks to the Ducati Vehicle Observer (DVO) algorithm, developed directly by Ducati Corse, and the application of Cornering ABS with combined braking, which debuted on the Panigale V4. Compared to the Panigale V4, the V4 R electronics implementation differs in terms of new performance-oriented combined braking strategies, called Race Brake Control, and the application of DVO extended to engine braking control. The Race Brake Control logic is the result of internal development at Ducati and allows the riding techniques of professional riders to be emulated with results even superior to those achieved by the Panigale V4. Specifically, Race Brake Control allows for much greater use of the rear brake than on the Panigale V4, thanks to an even more precise calculation method that allows greater pressure to be applied at different roll angles. This allows the rider to move the braking point further forward, as the system allows for greater deceleration in the final phase of the braking distance up to the rear wheel lock-up limit, as MotoGP and Superbike riders do. The new engine brake control system also contributes to this, which, thanks to the use of DVO, allows for more accurate management of the forces applied to the tyre, making the engine's braking action even more progressive and predictable. The new electronic package is managed through the 6.9" dashboard already introduced with the Panigale V4, which offers two display modes, Track and Road, and an interface based on graphic views with information on performance and vehicle status. The version fitted on the Panigale V4 R has a view developed specifically for track use, called Grip Meter, which supports the rider in the pursuit of maximum performance by graphically displaying the estimated grip available at that moment. Accessories To further enhance the effectiveness of this bike on the track, Ducati Performance offers a wide range of accessories to complete and enhance your Panigale V4 R. The Ducati DAVC Race Pro software, available as a Ducati Performance accessory, was developed in collaboration with Ducati Corse engineers to optimize engine calibrations and control strategies, thus achieving maximum performance in track configuration and with slick or rain tyres. Ducati Performance accessories also include the Ducati Data Logger, carbon fibre rims (-0.950 grams compared to the already lightweight forged rims) that improve all aspects of dynamics, PRO and PRO+ front brake packages, racing fairings, footpegs and everything else needed to make the new Panigale V4 R even more effective on the track. Availability The Ducati Panigale V4 R will arrive in European dealerships in November 2025. The dynamic and beauty videos of the new Panigale V4 R are available on the Ducati YouTube channel.

Tue, 23 Sep 2025 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/lind-x-stockwell-designcrafting-custom-triumph-bonnevilles-in-the-heart-of-london LIND x Stockwell Design: Crafting Custom Triumph Bonnevilles in the Heart of London PUBLISHED 19.09.2025 For just over a year, Charlie Stockwell of Stockwell Design and the LIND Group has been working beneath the iconic railway arches at Triumph London, reimagining one of the most enduring motorcycles ever built: the Triumph Bonneville. The Bonneville has always had a reputation as a riders motorcycle,simple, timeless, and endlessly adaptable. But in Stockwells hands, it becomes more than a machine; it becomes a statement of character. His builds blur the line between motorcycle and artwork, a fusion of craftsmanship, attitude, and performance that speaks directly to the soul of modern riders. LXSD066 |Twiggy BonnevilleT120 The Bonneville: A Perfect Canvas Few motorcycles offer the flexibility of the Bonneville. Its classic parallel-twin engine, minimal bodywork, and instantly recognisable silhouette make it the ideal foundation for custom work. Riders across generations have embraced it as both a symbol of British engineering and a platform for personal expression. Charlie Stockwell recognised this potential immediately. For him, the Bonneville isnt just a bike,its a canvas. A platform to strip back, rebuild, and reshape according to a vision. Whether that vision leans toward nostalgia or raw aggression, the Bonneville adapts seamlessly, and under Stockwells guidance, no two creations are ever the same. LXSD080|Sunraiser Bonneville T100 Retro Reimagined One of Charlies defining styles is his ability to breathe new life into vintage aesthetics.

The Diavel V4 RS and the Multistrada V4 RS arrived in the pit lane of the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli, ridden by the two Ducati Lenovo team riders, concluding the story told in the presentation video, in which Marc Mrquez and Pecco Bagnaia engage in a thrilling remote game, creating a spectacular showdown that highlights the soul and performance of each bike. The new RS range is designed for those who live Ducati as an absolute passion and recognise excellence at first sight. An unparalleled experience, reserved for those who desire the best and seek the utmost in performance, lightness, and style. A range whose mission is to create models that represent the pinnacle of sporting excellence in their respective families, characterised by racing performance and technology and made unique by distinctive liveries, exclusive components, and high-quality materials such as titanium and carbon fibre. The Diavel V4 RS and Multistrada V4 RS are numbered series models that, thanks to the Desmosedici Stradale engine and exclusive carbon fibre and titanium components, bring their respective worlds closer to that of Superbike. The 1,103 cc Desmosedici Stradale engine combines smoothness at low and medium revs with a spirited and sporty personality at high revs, the result of a very broad power delivery curve achieved thanks to desmodromic distribution. Smooth in its response at low revs, the V4 becomes thrilling near the redline, accompanied by the characteristic exhaust note of the Twin Pulse firing order, which, during acceleration, becomes exhilarating as the revs rise. Diavel V4 RS 0 to 100 in just two and a half seconds. The Diavel name has always been synonymous with blistering acceleration. With the new V4 RS, thanks to the MotoGP-derived Desmosedici Stradale engine with its counter-rotating crankshaft, Ducati pushes the limit even further. The Diavel V4 RS, long and low thanks to technical solutions that bring it closer to dragsters, is in fact the Ducati with the best acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h. Thanks to this, and thanks to the 182 horsepower of its Desmo V4 engine and a sophisticated and effective electronics package that allows its rider to maximise performance, the V4 RS achieves acceleration rates that were simply unthinkable for a street-legal motorcycle until now. In the hands of Marc Mrquez, the Diavel V4 RS has proven capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.52 seconds. The riding experience on the Diavel V4 RS is unique, thanks to its spirited and thrilling power delivery and the unmistakable sound of the Desmosedici Stradale engine with dry clutch. The Diavel V4 RS can command attention at low speeds but also excites in sporty riding, thanks to its hlins suspension, aluminium single-sided swingarm, Panigale V4-derived braking system, and forged wheels designed specifically for this model. The technical and stylistic details that characterise the Diavel V4 RS's livery make it unforgettable. The RS logo, designed by the Centro Stile, appears on the livery, on the hands-free ignition key, in the dashboard graphics, and on the rear cylinder head cover, where the bike's serial number is also located. And the experience of riding this unique motorcycle will be made even more special by the dedicated dashboard animation at key-on. The Diavel V4 RS's design is completely new. Every elementfrom the air intakes to the single-seat tailpiece, to the mudguards and tank covers, all made of carbon fibrecontributes to an even more distinctive and sporty look, reducing the bike's weight by 3 kg without compromising the Diavel's unmistakable identity. MULTISTRADA V4 RS Track performance, Multistrada soul. The first Multistrada V4 RS was born in 2023 with the mission of becoming the sportiest, most sophisticated, and most distinctive Multistrada ever. A mission accomplished thanks to the Desmosedici Stradale engine, a chassis capable of offering rider and passenger a perfect blend of sportiness and comfort , and a latest-generation electronics package. This formula, appreciated and rewarded by the sportiest Multistrada riders, led to the success of the V4 RS, thus encouraging Ducati to create what is now the RS range. With its 180-horsepower V4 engine, featuring desmodromic timing with dry clutch and an Akrapovi silencer, hlins Smart EC 2.0 suspension, and the all-new, dedicated forged wheels, the Multistrada V4 RS offers unmistakable performance and riding sensations, while maintaining the balance that has always distinguished the Multistrada family. On the new Multistrada V4 RS, every component, every detail has been chosen with the sole aim of creating the sportiest and most exciting touring bike ever. The electronics package has been updated with the Ducati Vehicle Observer algorithm, derived from Ducati's experience in MotoGP, which simulates the presence of 70 sensors for more precise and safer electronic controls. The chassis, featuring an event-based hlins front fork and shock absorber, is even more effective thanks to new suspension strategies, a larger 280 mm rear disc, and a braking system with ABS cornering. The ultra-lightweight titanium rear subframe, unique in the world, is now sized to accommodate a top case. The new Ducati Multistrada V4 RS combines the unmistakable Multistrada line, elegant and dynamic, with the new RS livery. Various carbon fibre components, such as the front mudguard, handguards, heat shields, and front beak, along with forged wheels, a lightweight lithium-ion battery, and a techno-polymer tail fairing (designed specifically for this model) mounted on the titanium subframe, contribute to a weight saving of 2 kg compared to the Multistrada Pikes Peak. The Ducati Multistrada V4 RS is produced in a numbered series. The sequential numbering is shown on a black anodised aluminium plate attached to the triple clamp and adorned with the Italian flag. And here too, the dashboard will greet the rider with a dedicated animation at key-on. As with all models in the Multistrada family, Ducati offers the exclusive "4Ever Multistrada" warranty for the Multistrada V4 RS, valid for four years with unlimited mileage, guaranteed by the Bologna-based manufacturer's entire European dealer network. Availability of the RS Range In Europe, deliveries of the Multistrada V4 RS will begin in November 2025, while the Diavel V4 RS will arrive in dealerships in December. A video of the two bikes, featuring the two official riders of the Ducati Lenovo MotoGP team, is available on the Ducati YouTube channel.

MORE STORIES Fri, 22 Aug 2025 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/stockwell-designs-custom-triumph-scramblersheritage-craft-and-performance-on-two-wheels Stockwell Designs Custom Triumph Scramblers | Heritage, Craft, and Performance on Two Wheels PUBLISHED 15.08.2025 Stockwell Design's custom scramblers Stockwell Designs custom Triumph Scramblers arent just bikes, theyre statements on two wheels. Every build rolls out of Triumph Londons workshop with a presence that turns heads and a performance edge you can feel from the first twist of the throttle. One of the defining traits of a Stockwell build is the perfect marriage of aggressive styling and serious engineering. In the custom, street, and cruiser scene, serious suspension performance upgrades are often treated as an afterthought, a cosmetic accessory at best. But for Charlie Stockwell, its the foundation of the ride. That conviction comes from experience: years spent on the racetrack, and in Sweden working alongside hlins on R&D and design projects for Harley-Davidson. In 2016, Charlie even helped launch the hlins Blackline series, now a go-to for riders who demand both performance and style. Its no wonder hlins upgrades feature on almost every Stockwell Design Triumph custom. The result? A ride that soaks up the miles on-road, yet stays poised and capable when the tarmac ends. Stay tuned, weve got a deep-dive coming soon on the Stockwellhlins connection, and why world-class suspension is the secret ingredient behind these iconic builds. Charlies creative partnerships extend beyond performance engineering. His collaboration with the team at Image Design Custom is a long-standing one, spanning nearly two decades, and together theyve crafted over 400 custom projects. While an aggressive Scrambler build might traditionally mean blacked-out-everything, this pairing isnt afraid to defy expectations. In the past two years, theyve produced some truly eye-catching, even outrageous, colourful Scramblers. Standouts include the vibrant Baja range and the bold Santa Cruz 1200, proving that attitude on two wheels doesnt have to come in monochrome. Now with over 25bikes revealed to the world online and many more out thereto come, we thought we would take some time to showcase and celebrate the Scrambler builds that Charlie has worked on so far since starting his collaboration project with LIND. KYALAMI 900:LXSD076 Let's start with one of Charlie's most recent builds. Crayon Grey never looked so sharp on this Scrambler 900.With custom hlins fork internals and Blackline rear shocks, this Scrambler is tuned for precision handling, whether carving corners or hitting gravel tracks. Dual-purpose tyres keep it versatile, while Vorna Grey and Black accents add depth to the Porsche-inspired paint. One glance and you know its a Scrambler built to move. EL POTATO SCRAMBLER 900:LXSD056 This Scrambler 9 isn't your average spud. Revealed at the 2025 London Bike Shed Moto Show, El Potato is bold, stripped-back, and unapologetically different. hlins suspension, aggressive tyres, and a raw stance set the tone, while a custom Image Design paint scheme gives it unmistakable flair. Its the perfect blend of rugged off-road capability and premium street presence, for the rider who wants to turn heads everywhere, not just in the paddock. BAJA XSERIES Now, let's look at someof the more out-there builds we've done with Image Design custom. Born from 80s Baja 1000 inspiration, the Baja X Series celebrates the wild side of off-road racing heritage. Revealed at the 2024 London Bike Shed Moto Show, this limited collection of Scramblers faced the world withbright colourways, twin headlamp conversions, and period motocross details.Ready for the desert while catching the eye. Underneath, Metzeler Karoo 4 tyres and robust build specs keptthem just as ready for the road. Whether its the big 1200 XE, the 1200 X, or the playful 400 X, each one is built to make you feel like youre lining up at the start of an epic rally stage. SANTA CRUZ SCRAMBLER 1200: LXSD035 Keeping with colourful, here's some seventies soul with modern muscle. The Santa Cruz Scrambler 1200 XE channels the golden age of custom culture, think candy colours, knobbly tyres, and a soundtrack from a wild Hitchcox shotgun exhaust. Inspired by the energy of 70s American day vans, its playful yet potent, and every detail, from custom wheels to vibrant paint, invites you to ride with a grin. GHOST SCRAMBLER: LXSD012 Next is elegance in motion. Inspired by the Leica Ghost Edition camera, the Ghost Scrambler 1200 XC pairs timeless styling with purposeful performance. Commissioned by architect and TV presenter George Clarke, its a build that speaks to precision and artistry with clean lines, premium finishes, and a quiet confidence that says just as muchasany loud paint job ever could. SCRAMBLER 1200 1G: LXSD008 Thisbuild feels part James Bond, part Mad Max. Subtle yet dramatic, its a simple but brutally effective scrambler built for pure visual and mechanical impact. The Scrambler 1200 1G turns simplicity into a statement with its bare-metal-effect paint, custom number boards, and fenderless tail. The Zard 2-into-2 slash-cut exhaust adds bite, while the overall stance is pure, purposeful muscle, ready to make an impact whether its parked or pinned wide open. BONNEVILLE T120 DS:LXSD003 While not built from a stock Triumph Scrambler, the T120 DS was the first collaboration between LIND Triumph London and Stockwell Design and a Bonneville with unmistakableScrambler soul. With clean lines, anupright stance, andsubtle detailing, its a perfect marriage of heritage charm and modern capability, inspired by the golden 60s but built for todays roads. WHAT'S NEXT? Charlie hints that theres plenty more in the pipeline at Triumph London, with four new Scrambler custom projects currently in the works. The styles couldnt be more varied,from the Lotus F1 Racing livery we teased in a recent newsletter, to dark and moody Scrambler 900 and 1200 builds that radiate stealth and presence. Well be revealing more on each of these projects in the coming weeks, so watch this space.

The Story Behind the BUILD Some builds are designed to turn heads. Others, to make history. The Sunraiser Bonneville T100 does both. Built by Stockwell Design for McFly bassist Dougie Poynter, this custom Triumph T100 is more than just a conversation starter; its the UKs official entry in the Triumph Originals Custom Competition and proudly stands among the final five globally. Weve been following this journey for a while. You might remember our last update from the Bike Shed Show 2025, when Dougie first saw his T100 at around 80% completion. Raw, stripped back, but already brimming with promise. You can catch that story along with some background on the Triumph Originals competitionHERE. Fast forward to the Malle Mile Festival, set against the spectacular backdrop of Grimsthorpe Castle. The complete Sunraiser finally rolled out in all its glory. RollING OUT AT MALLE MILE The Malle Mile Festival rose again for its 11th consecutive year, set against the stunning backdrop of the uniquely beautiful Grimsthorpe Castle. If youve ever been to the Malle Mile, youll know its not your average motorcycle event. Its an unapologetic celebration of two wheels in all their forms. Riders and revellers come together for the most thrilling and delightfully inappropriate motorcycle race and festival in the country, a true celebration of motorcycle culture in all its forms. This year's event was no different, featuringa non-stop programme of chaotic racing, world-class music on the Mile Stage, the Art of Machine show(with Charlie Stockwell on the Malle Judging Jury), striking photography, custom motorcycle installations, immersive automotive exhibitions, the iconic Malle Scramble, and unforgettable sets from top DJs at the now-legendary Mile after-party. But, for us, the highlight was the T100 reveal, which drew admiration from fans and motorcycle enthusiasts alike.Amidst the roar of scrambles and the buzz of custom showcases, Charlie presented the finished T100 to Dougiein an emotional moment that perfectly captured the spirit of this build: passion,heritage, and pure British craftsmanship. FromConcept to metal The concept came together quickly. Dougie wanted something classic, Charlie wanted something with soul. Both kept coming back to the 1950s and 1960s, an era of aviation glamour, art deco curves, and pure British engineering. What would happen if you fused that world with a modern T100? The Sunraiser is the answer. This isnt a catalogue build. Every component has a reason to exist. The fluted aluminium engine covers echo aerodynamic design. The hand-turned gas cap offers a tactile, bespoke piece of craftsmanship. At the rear, the 1950sera ofaviation doesnt just inspire the tail lamp; it is that era of aviation: a genuine vintage aeroplane navigation light taken straight from the wing of an aircraft. Lighting details throughout the bike draw inspiration from vintage Jaguars and aircraft instrument panels, reinforcing the connection to mid-century engineering and style. Nothing here feels added for its own sake. Everything is purposeful, considered, and beautifully executed. Why the Bonneville T100? Charlie calls the Bonneville the ultimate British icon, and its easy to see why. The T100 is a platform that strikes a balance between elegance and mechanical honesty, a builders dream canvas. Every build starts with a question, Charlie says. Do we want something that feels lived-in, like an heirloom, or something straight out of a 50s showroom? For Dougie, it was about timeless beauty. Clean, classy, and unmistakably British. The finished T100 nails that brief. It feels rooted in history without being trapped there. Its not retro for the sake of nostalgia; its relevant. Heritage, reinterpreted for today. YOUR VOTE CAN MAKE HISTORY Now that this customT100 is out in the world and representing the UK on a global stage, this is your chance to help take it all the way. Voting for Triumph Originals is now live, and the Sunraiser embodies everything this competition celebrates: British design at its purest, a deep connection to culture and heritage, and craftsmanship that turns a motorcycle into a true work of art. This isnt just a build; its a statement. Show your support.Cast your vote for the Sunraiser Bonneville T100 below.

The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White MORE STORIES Thu, 10 Jul 2025 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/first-look2025-triumph-scrambler-400-xc-rugged-style-meets-off-road-capability First Look | 2025 Triumph Scrambler 400 XC - Rugged Style Meets Off-Road Capability PUBLISHED 08.07.2025 Triumph Motorcycles is launching the new Scrambler 400 XC into its global dealer network, expanding Triumphs acclaimed 400cc Modern Classic line-up. This stunning new Scrambler 400 XC will be sold alongside the popular Scrambler 400 X, delivering category-leading performance, unmistakable Scrambler design DNA, and a premium finish, along with a new, higher specification infused with genuine adventure capability. The Scrambler 400 XC features new side-laced spoked wheels, which together with its lightweight aluminium rims and tubeless tyres, combine rugged capability with premium craftsmanship. The 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels not only enhance the bike's off-road readiness but also contribute to its authentic Scrambler stance and confident poise. The new colour-coded high-level front mudguard and flyscreen together with the handguards provide protection for the rider in tough conditions, while the strong aluminium sump guard and engine bars protect vital components. The new model is available in three fresh, contemporary colour schemes Racing Yellow, Storm Grey and Vanilla White. Each design features distinctive graphics, including a black Triumph logo, matching black tank infills with knee pads, and a black two-piece rider and pillion seat. Paul Stroud, Chief Commercial Officer, Triumph Motorcycles said: The Triumph Scrambler 400 XC has been a huge hit with customers in India and there is clear demand for this model across the rest of the world too. With improved off-road capability and Scrambler attitude, plus three new, stylish colour schemes, we hope this model will appeal to even more riders, further enhancing and extending the appeal of the Triumph brand for the next generation. CLASS-LEADING SPECIFICATION The Scrambler 400 XC backs up its rugged looks with a class-leading specification designed for real-world adventure. Adding more off-road capability to the Scramblers rugged style, the new Scrambler 400 XC features side-laced spoked wheels. The adventure-focused 19-inch diameter front wheel and 17-inch rear wheel, with Excel aluminium rims and tubeless Metzeler Karoo Street tyres, are designed for versatile all-road performance. High-quality suspension ensures a smooth ride over varied terrains, featuring 43mm diameter big-piston upside-down front forks, and rear piggy-back Monoshock with 150mm travel each, while switchable traction control and a dedicated off-road ABS mode provide safety and versatility wherever the road leads. Adding rider convenience, performance and safety, the Scrambler 400 models feature the latest rider-focused technology. The clean and contemporary dual format instruments feature a large analogue speedometer and integrated LCD screen which includes a digital tachometer, a fuel range remaining and a prominent gear indicator, clearly visible in all lighting conditions. All this functionality is accessed via an intuitive easy to use handlebar-mounted scroll button. A conveniently located USB-C charging socket allows on-the-move charging of handlebar-mounted devices, such as smartphones and navigation systems. Designed for performance and presence, the powerful headlight features a distinctive daytime running light with Triumph DRL signature, while the taillight incorporates moulded light guides and Triumph branding. Slim, contemporary indicators complete the package. Both Scrambler 400 models come equipped with a steering lock and an anti-theft immobiliser as standard. The transponder chip integrated into the ignition key ensures only the owner can start the engine. AUTHENTIC SCRAMBLER DNA With its assertive silhouette and authentic Triumph Scrambler design, the Scrambler 400 XC is ready for every adventure. The rugged design draws inspiration from the category-defining Scrambler 900 and 1200 models, inheriting an off-road pedigree that traces back to the pioneering factory Scramblers of the 1950s. Designed in Hinckley, UK, to provide a fun, agile, and confidence-inspiring ride, the Scrambler 400 caters to riders of all ages and experience levels. With all the substance and presence of a Triumph, the Scramblers design incorporates hallmark Triumph features, from the signature sculpted tank with knee indents, the classic engine profile with Triumph triangle badge, finned head and header clamps and a flowing upswept silencer. Engineered using authentic materials and with meticulous attention to detail, the Scrambler 400 XC also embodies Triumphs commitment to quality with a category-leading finish. From the black powder-coated engine casing and machined cooling fins to the cast aluminium swingarm and gold anodised forks, the devil really is in the details. The design seamlessly blends traditional elements like the upswept silencer with modern features including concealed liquid-cooling, which result in an unmistakable Triumph Modern Classic style, now with a distinctly rugged spirit. With its accessible seat height, low weight and commanding riding position, the Scrambler 400s agile and easy handling allows riders to enjoy exploring the road less travelled with complete confidence. Both Scrambler 400 models boast an extended wheelbase and long travel suspension complemented by wide handlebars that provide enhanced stability and control on loose surfaces. For enhanced off-road ergonomics, the Scrambler 400 models feature high-grip foot pegs positioned for a natural standing riding posture. The 4-piston radial brake calliper, large 320mm front disc and optimised pad compound deliver reassuringly strong and progressive braking performance in all conditions, while the tubeless dual-purpose tyres, along with switchable traction control and a dedicated off-road ABS mode, provide complete confidence wherever the road leads. The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White THRILLING PERFORMANCE The characterful TR-series engine is engineered and tuned to provide Triumphs characterful and responsive ride, with class leading power and performance and an evocative and distinctive exhaust note. The 400cc engine delivers 40 PS at 8,000 rpm and 37.5 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. Delivering a flexible performance that adapts to any riding scenario, its enhanced by the latest rider technology, seamlessly integrated for modern convenience with timeless style. Bosch engine management with ride-by-wire throttle delivers a linear and intuitive throttle response with predictable power delivery for enhanced rideability, safety and control. The Scrambler 400 models also feature a six-speed gearbox with torque-assist clutch and stainless twin-skin header system with stainless steel twin-outlet silencer.

For the UK entry, Charlie Stockwell has stepped up to lead the charge as part of the LIND x Stockwell Design collaboration. Partnering with ourTriumph Londonstore and collaborating with musician, songwriter, and Triumph enthusiast Dougie Poynter, Charlie isnt just building a show bike; hes crafting a rolling statement. One that fuses history, attitude, and identity. Two weeks ago, we teased the beginning of the build. Now, the direction is becoming clearer and even more exciting. Dougie's First Look at the T100 Charlie has long favoured the Bonneville line as a foundation for his custom work, and with good reason. The T100 offers balance, elegance, and that unmistakable Triumph DNA. Its a builders dream: equally suited to stripped-down minimalism or refined, high-gloss nostalgia. When Dougie got his first look at the bike, stripped of paint and 80% complete, he was buzzing with ideas. The timing couldnt have been better: fresh from the Bike Shed Show, immersed in a sea of wild custom styles, his brain was spinning. Should the bike appear as if it were once immaculate, now aged and patinated, telling a story of time and character? Or something that looked like it had just rolled out of a 1950s Triumph showroom or RAF hangar, gleaming and untouched? Right now, the concept lives somewhere in the middle, and thats where things get interesting. Vintage Aviation Meets British Steel The builds creative direction began to take off after a few key conversations. With Dougie's love for 1950s culture, the pair kept returning to the idea of that eras aviation glamour and industrial elegance. The curved lines, fluted metals, and the mechanical poetry of British engineering. Old art deco posters. Cocktail bars. A Triumph as a time machine. So, as he does, Charlie took those cues and started weaving them into the build: fluted aluminium engine covers, a hand-turned gas cap, intricate, cast lighting details you'd find straight out of a vintage Jag or aircraft instrument panel, and a tail lamp styled like a 50s wing-mounted plane light, made from proper glass. These arent bolt-on catalogue parts. These are bespoke details, one-offs and custom-crafted. Charlie has drawn on years of experience, going back to his Harley-Davidson and bobber-building days, calling on trusted craftspeople and fabricators to bring this concept to life. The result so far? A Bonneville that blends Triumph tradition with a classic aviation twist. Clean, classy, and unmistakably British. Whats Next? With just a few weeks left until the Triumph Originals deadline, the pressure is on, but so is the creativity. The exhaust design is being finalised, the wheels are likely to change, and as for the paintwork well, thats still under wraps. Lets just say, something bold is brewing, and we wouldnt expect anything less. Ultimately, this build is about more than looks. Its about capturing a feeling, something nostalgic, soulful, and completely unique. Charlies expert hand and Dougies creative input are fuelling a collaboration that feels fresh, authentic, and deeply personal. Keep following the journey over at @TriumphLondon and @Stockwell__Design, and make sure to cast your vote when the UK bike goes live in the global competition. You can also watch the latest episodes on Triumphs YouTube channel, where Charlie and Dougie share their vision, process, and some behind-the-scenes insights into the build.

MORE STORIES Sat, 17 May 2025 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/first-look2025-triumph-speed-triple-1200-rx First Look | 2025 TRIUMPH Speed Triple 1200 RX PUBLISHED 13.04.2025 Triumph Motorcycles has unveiled an exclusive new Speed Triple 1200 RX for 2025, limited to just 1200 motorcycles worldwide. With a fully focused riding position delivered by more aggressive, sportier ergonomics, the new Speed Triple 1200 RX is the ultimate incarnation of the Speed Triple, with even more of the state-of-the-art electronics and technology that has impressed customers since the launch of the Speed Triple 1200 RS in March. The RX limited edition delivers absolute focus with clip-ons and a machined top yoke, which are 69mm lower and 52mm further forward than the 2025 Speed Triple 1200 RS. Adding to the more focused riding position, the footpegs on the RX are 14.5mm higher and 25.5mm further to the rear than the RS model. Delivering absolute precision and control, the state-of-the-art hlins electronic suspension is enhanced with the hlins SD EC steering damper. The control of the electronic damper is integrated seamlessly with the Ohlins Smart EC3 system to deliver light, agile handling and optimum stability, and it can be adjusted via the hlins Objective Based Tuning Interface on the instruments. The pressurised design of the damper ensures no free-play in the system Fitted as standard only on the RX, the new Akrapovi silencer features a titanium outer wrap and mounting bracket, a carbon fibre endcap and exhaust valve cover, and is finished with a laser etched Akrapovi logo. Enhancing both performance and comfort, an upgraded performance seat enhances rider movement when in the saddle and features an embossed RX logo. The striking look of the RX is created with an exclusive Triumph Performance Yellow and Granite graphic scheme and white RX accents. The race-inspired carbon fibre front mudguard and tank bodywork add to the exclusivity of the design and to add even more impact, there is a Triumph Performance Yellow accent on the rear wheel. Just like the new Speed Triple 1200 RS, the RX delivers unmatched triple power and torque, peerless handling and top of the range rider-focused technology. Triumphs 1160cc triple engine delivers relentless acceleration and performance with 183PS at 10,750 rpm and 128Nm at 8,750 rpm. Thrilling and utterly addictive, the three-cylinder engine delivers the ultimate blend of low-end drive and top-end punch, giving cutting-edge performance on the road and on the track, coupling instant throttle response with an effortlessly smooth power delivery. The revised dynamic crankshaft balancing strategy which made its debut on the RS, provides a significant improvement in engine refinement. The 2025 Speed Triples rider-focused package of equipment and technology puts the rider in control, offering exceptional levels of adjustment. The hlins latest-generation SmartEC3 semi-active suspension includes the cutting-edge hlins Objective Based Tuning Interface (OBTi), which allows riders to easily adjust the suspensions dynamic damping characteristics in different riding scenarios. There is also new independently adjustable Front Wheel Lift Control, Engine Braking Control and Brake Slide Control, as well as fully adjustable cruise control. Brembo Stylema calipers and a Brembo MCS span and ratio adjustable lever offer serious stopping power and a customisable feel, even during the most demanding riding. Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP V3 tyres deliver racetrack performance in a fully street legal tyre. Carefully engineered to be just 199kg ready to ride, the 2025 Speed Triple sports slightly wider bars than earlier iterations, ensuring the perfect balance of agility and control. Combined with a narrow seat profile, the rider can feel an intuitive and effortless connection with the bike, delivering precise handling and real-world comfort. Triumph Motorcycles Chief Commercial Officer Paul Stroud said: The new Speed Triple 1200 RX offers the ultimate riding experience, both on the road and on the track. The extra technology, premium specification and more focused riding position will put this firmly on the wishlist of every track day enthusiast. With just 1200 of these available around the world, customers who secure an early order will really stand out from the crowd. MORE POWERFUL THAN EVER With 183PS at 10,750rpm, the new engine delivers 3PS more than the previous generation of Speed Triple. Torque is improved too, with 128Nm at 8,750rpm, which is not only 3Nm more than the outgoing model but is delivered slightly lower in the rev range. Incorporating learnings and expertise gathered during Triumph's Moto2 engine development, the Speed Triple 1200 engine has been engineered to be more powerful and durable, as well as being compact and lightweight. A new, free-flowing exhaust system and compact, lightweight Akrapovi silencer streamline gas flow and centralise mass to improve performance, while maintaining the Speed Triple's signature triple bark. RAZOR SHARP HANDLING Featuring innovative 'spool valve' technology for even faster adjustment and improved comfort, state-of-the-art hlins SmartEC3 semi-active technology delivers perfectly tailored, precise and dynamic handling. This includes the hlins Objective Based Tuning Interface (OBTi), which continuously monitors and adjusts the suspension damping characteristics. So, whether riding in a straight line, braking for a corner, balancing the bike mid corner, or accelerating out of a corner, it adjusts the damping characteristics to give the desired performance in each scenario. Riders can now customise this performance using an intuitive menu system on the TFT instruments, so the bike continuously monitors and adapts the damping in real time to deliver the optimum performance for the conditions. For the next level of precision and control, the Speed Triple 1200 RX also features an electronically adjustable steering damper, the hlins SD EC, delivering smooth and predictable handling in every situation. The Brembo Stylema calipers combine with a Brembo MCS lever, delivering impeccable stopping performance and a customisable brake feel. Completing the set-up, the Speed Triple 1200 has Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP V3s fitted as standard, which have a bi-compound design for optimised grip, stability and durability. While delivering absolute focus with clip-ons that are 69mm lower and 52mm further forward than the 2025 RS, the RX is compact with bars that are slightly wider than the outgoing RS model, creating a sporty, roadster stance that delivers effortlessly precise handling, and real-world comfort. Where the yokes have been updated to accommodate the wider bars and the addition of the steering damper, the finish of these components has been updated to a sophisticated and understated black tone, creating a contrast with the gold hlins forks. The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White BOLD DESIGN AND AGGRESSIVE STYLING With sharp lines and a purposeful stance, the Speed Triple 1200 has a strikingly handsome silhouette, with a sculpted tank and minimalist rear end that blends seamlessly with the rear light and numberplate hanger. Taking cues from the 30 years of Speed Triple design DNA, the new model retains the signature twin headlights and single sided swingarm, which reinforce the bikes modern and aggressive styling, as well as its serious performance capability. Evolving the design for an even sportier look in 2025, the aluminum twin-spar frame and lightweight new wheels reduce gyroscopic forces for faster turn in and greater agility, making carving through corners effortless, while a new seat cowl sharpens the rear end of the bike. Despite all the extra technology and the electronic suspension, the Speed Triple is still one of the lightest bikes in the class, at just 199kg wet weight with fuel. Contributing to this, is the Speed Triple's lithium-ion battery, which is significantly lighter than a conventional battery. From the bar end mirrors, to the meticulously sculpted swingarm, the attention to detail, build quality, and overall level of finish, are second to none. RIDER-FOCUSED TECHNOLOGY The 2025 updates also bring new performance electronics that are configurable by the rider and adjustable independently of the riding modes. The new front wheel lift control system, which incorporates inputs from the six-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) to determine the pitch of the bike, offers four levels of adjustment. Engine Braking Control is customisable according to the rider's preference, complementing the adjustable throttle maps and allowing riders to adjust the engine feel to suit their own riding style and the conditions. Brake Slide Assist, which is available in Track mode only, optimises the ABS calibration for track riding by allowing more front wheel slip and more rear wheel lift. This maximises performance on track and minimises feelings of being intrusive, all while providing a safety net in case of unexpected conditions. With five distinct riding modes (Rain, Road, Sport, Track, Rider), Optimised Cornering ABS and switchable Optimised Cornering Traction Control, and the Triumph Shift Assist up and down quickshifter all fitted as standard, the Speed Triple has all the advanced features to maximise performance and safety in all conditions. The design of the 5" TFT instrument interface provides instant access to all key information, controlled by the intuitive 5-way joystick and backlit switches. The standard-fit My Triumph Connectivity System enables turn-by-turn navigation, as well as phone and music control. Theres fully adjustable cruise control for longer rides, and a new Emergency Deceleration Warning feature activates a high-frequency flash of the brake light to alert other road users in case of hard braking and rapid deceleration. The ignition, steering lock and fuel filler cap feature keyless operation on the 2025 Speed Triple 1200. For added security, the wireless function can be disabled with a single button press.

The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White MORE STORIES Mon, 12 May 2025 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/first-lookharley-davidson-reveals-new-limited-production-fat-boy-gray-ghost-model First Look | Harley-Davidson Reveals New Limited-Production Fat Boy Gray Ghost Model PUBLISHED 09.05.2025 Harley-Davidson today introduced the gleaming Fat Boy Gray Ghost model, the fifth installment in its Icons Motorcycle Collection. This new, limited-production Icons model celebrates the 35th anniversary of the introduction of the Fat Boy, a motorcycle that remains a cultural icon and one of the most recognizable bikes to ever roll down the road. The Fat Boy Gray Ghost model salutes a superstar of motorcycle design with a gleaming new Reflection finish that gives the entire motorcycle the appearance of being dipped in chrome. The Icons Motorcycle Collection features a limited release of a new motorcycle model that offers a fresh interpretation of an iconic Harley-Davidson motorcycle. Icons Motorcycle Collection models are serialized and may include additional features above the base motorcycle. Production of the Fat Boy Gray Ghost model will be limited to 1,990 total motorcycles globally, (paying homage to the original 1990 Fat Boy) with an MSRP of $25,399* (U.S. pricing). The Fat Boy Gray Ghost model celebrates the enduring significance of the original fat custom motorcycle. The original Fat Boy model took the look, proportions, and silhouette of a 1949 Hydra-Glide and completely modernized it for a new generation of riders, explains Brad Richards, Harley-Davidson Vice President of Design and Creative Director, Motorcycles. Those riders appreciated our post-war design DNA but also found themselves drawn to the clean simplicity of contemporary industrial design. At its inception, the bike was intended to have a limited lifespan. Instead, the Fat Boy motorcycle has spanned three powertrain generations and a complete redesign of its Softail chassis and for 35 years has maintained its original power to impress with unmatched presence and undeniable style. Stunning Reflection Finish The Fat Boy is a big, bold motorcycle designed for riders who want to make a statement. That statement is amplified by an Icons Collection Fat Boy Gray Ghost model that will shimmer in sunlight like it was machined from a solid alloy billet and polished to a mirror finish. The Reflection finish is created using the physical vapor deposition (PVD) process, also known as thin film coating, in which a solid material is vaporized in a vacuum and deposited onto the surface of a part, in this case the fuel tank and motorcycle fenders. This is accomplished by applying a positive charge to the solid material (an aluminum alloy) and a negative charge to the motorcycle part. Following the deposition process, the part is painted with a standard clear coat finish. PVD has been used in the past by Harley-Davidson to finish some small parts such as tank medallions and exhaust shields. Its use on the Fat Boy Gray Ghost model fenders and fuel tank is the first time PVD has been used on parts this large for a production Harley-Davidson model. The precision of this coating results in a stunning finish that is chrome-like in appearance but is more comprehensive than chrome plating and thus will meet Harley-Davidson standards for corrosion resistance that are not possible with chroming on these parts. Chrome side covers complete the bikes overall bright finish, complemented by a frame finished in bright silver powder coat. Styling cues inspired by the original Fat Boy model include a round air cleaner, yellow accents on the lower rocker covers, powertrain covers, and tank console insert.

History of an Instant Icon In 1990, a time when the motorcycle media and much of the riding public was consumed with the escalating performance of sport bikes, the Harley-Davidson Fat Boy model landed like a thundering heavy-metal power chord. The Fat Boy model was inspired by a custom Harley motorcycle based on the Softail platform created in 1987 at Harley-Davidson Montral by the dealership general manager Duc Dufour and technician Denis Lavoie, which they called a Lowboy. That bike featured slammed rear suspension, an aluminum disc wheel and fiberglass fender on the front and a wide handlebar. Spotted by Harley-Davidson Executive Jerry Wilke, an example was shipped to Milwaukee. While the Lowboy custom offered some inspiration, the motorcycle that would become the Fat Boy model was created by the H-D styling team led by Willie G. Davidson and Louie Netz. On the 1990 Fat Boy model, the wheels are the defining characteristic, wrote Davidson in his book 100 Years of Harley-Davidson. The idea was to create a distinctive look using solid-cast disc wheels. We pushed this distinction further with a silver monochromatic paint job and silver powder-coated frame. Since the entire bike was silver, we needed something bright to set it off. I added yellow trim to the rocker boxes, the derby cover, the timer cover, and the ignition switch. We built a Fat Boy prototype, and I took it to Daytona so we would get one-on-one feedback from the riders. Only Harley-Davidson would have the chutzpah to name a motorcycle Fat Boy. Youre probably wondering how we came up with a name like Fat Boy, and Ive heard a lot of tales about this, nearly all of which are untrue, wrote Davidson. Heres the real story: its tough to come up with names that will be popular on the street. We were looking for something unusual and maybe even a little irreverent, because theres something sort of cool about poking fun at your products from time to time. To me, and to a lot of other insiders whod seen it, the bike had a massive fat look. So the folks in marketing came up with the name Fat Boy.

New for 2024, the Trident Triple Tribute celebrates Triumphs legendary triple engines and will be available for one year only. This hugely popular naked roadster is now available with a distinctive graphic scheme, which is a contemporary take on Triumphs iconic white, blue and red racing scheme and features the distinctive 67 number graphic, which once adorned the most famous Trident in history, Slippery Sam. The Tridents characterful and unique triple engine performance and celebrated handling will be even more enjoyable with the addition of Triumph Shift Assist, while the Bluetooth module enables riders to utilise My Triumph Connectivity, adding to an already impressive specification and list of equipment for its class. Included as standard, the colour matched fly screen and belly pan add even more unique character to the Tridents distinctive style, showcasing the exceptional standard of fit and finish that is synonymous with Triumph. Paul Stroud, Chief Commercial Officer, Triumph Motorcycles said: Since its launch in 2020, this middle-weight roadster has reinvigorated this highly competitive category, selling more than 35,600 units worldwide. Its triple engine and premium detailing at a great price, has been successful in bringing younger and new riders to Triumph, and just as Slippery Sam once inspired a generation, we believe this special edition has the iconic style, extra technology and dynamic performance to appeal to todays Triumph fans. UNIQUE TRIPLE TRIBUTE EDITION DESIGN SCHEME The Trident Triple Tribute has a stunning, modern design, inspired by the most celebrated Triumph triple bike of all time, Slippery Sam, which is the only motorcycle ever to win five TT production races in five consecutive years, from 1971 to 1975. The white, blue and red scheme with colour-matched fly screen and belly pan, stands out from the clean, minimal lines, beautiful silhouette and confident poise of the Trident. The distinctive tank design with number 67 race graphic surrounds the signature knee cut-outs, complementing the flowing seat line. With an impeccable attention to detail, the Trident 660 features high quality Triumph badges in both the headlight and taillight, and logo touches on the fuel filler cap, handlebar clamp and instruments, plus an inset aluminium Trident badge with diamond machined detailing. Body coloured radiator cowls, aluminium yokes & heel guards, body coloured fork protectors, tapered aluminium handlebars and teardrop shape mirrors, with five-spoke, black, lightweight, cast aluminium wheels, complete the eye-catching look. TRIPLE ENGINE PERFORMANCE ADVANTAGE Featuring a dedicated Trident tune, the popular 660cc triple engine was developed to deliver the character and performance benefits of a triple to riders in the middleweight sports naked category, providing the perfect balance of low-down torque, mid-range and top end power. A distinctive deep triple soundtrack is provided via a compact and minimal single sided silencer, with a premium stainless-steel finisher. Fully Euro 5 compliant, the engine gives 81 PS peak power @ 10,250 rpm with a progressive, smooth and linear delivery, as well as 64 Nm peak torque @ 6,250 rpm. An accessory fit A2 conversion kit is available in Europe, including the A2-specific APS twist grip and a unique engine tune, which restricts peak power to 47 PS, or 35kW, and peak torque to 59 Nm. The bike can be de-restricted at the dealership, once the rider has completed their full licence. The Tridents smooth six-speed gearbox, with gear ratios and final drive that are optimised to make the riding experience easy and fun, is further enhanced by the addition of the Triumph Shift Assist, included as standard for this special edition. This quickshifter enables clutchless changes up and down the ratios, with an autoblipper on downshifts for fast, seamless changes.

MORE STORIES Tue, 22 Apr 2025 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/first-look2025-bmw-r-1300-r-sharper-smarter-stronger First Look: 2025 BMW R 1300 R - Sharper. Smarter. Stronger. PUBLISHED 16.04.2025 The new BMW R 1300 R: the new dynamic roadster with boxer engine is noticeably sportier both technically and visually, featuring dynamic styling for an aggressive, athletic design. Four attractive model variants. The goal behind developing the new BMW R 1300 R was to achieve both a visual and technical enhancement of the dynamic roadster with boxer engine. Alongside its more aggressive, sportier design, equipment features such as the Performance variant including a sport suspension, short hand levers, milled and adjustable footrests,DTC-Shift, two additional sport screens, sport seat, engine spoiler and sport tyres allow customers to dial up the bikes dynamic potential even further. At the same time, theBMW R 1300 R remains a capable companion for everyday use and touring, and with options such as seat heating, Riding Assistant, a windscreen, and a variety of luggage choices, the bike can be perfectly tailored to individual needs of this type. The basic version of the BMW R 1300 R is offered in Snapper Rocks metallic, with additional variants including the Exclusive variant in Racing blue metallic, the sport-focused Performance variant in Lightwhite uni, and the premium Option 719 Kilauea in Blackstorm metallic. SPORTY YET COMFORTABLE FOR DYNAMIC RIDES AND LONG TOURS The BMW Motorrad developers set out to make the new BMW R 1300 R significantly more dynamic and sporty than its predecessor a goal the new dynamic roadster with boxer engine fulfils not only in terms of design, engine and chassis: equal importance was also placed on ergonomics, with a focus on creating a sportier, more active riding position. Accordingly, the ergonomic triangle formed by handlebars, footrests and seat on the new BMW R 1300 R has been designed to position the rider noticeably further forward over the front wheel thanks to slightly rear-set footrests and flatter handlebars. This results in particular in improved feedback from the front end, especially during sporty riding, and therefore even greater controllability. At the same time, the sporty seating position still allows for relaxed touring and cruising, even with a passenger. Optional Comfort handlebars are also available. VERSATILE SEATS AND SMART LUGGAGE FOR EASY TOURING For many years, BMWs roadsters with boxer engine have enjoyed an excellent reputation among female customers and restarters in particular. This is thanks to their good accessibility and low seat height. For this reason, the development of the new R 1300 R again placed particular focus on achieving a seat height of well below 790 mm. In addition to the standard seat, several others are available as individual items of optional equipment ex works. For touring and holiday rides, the new BMW R 1300 R can be fitted with a newly developed case system and case holders from the BMW Motorrad Original Accessories range, or with preparation for the luggage system fitted as optional equipment ex works. The cases have a capacity of 26 and 29 litres respectively. Both are electrified and can be unlocked using the central locking system. They also both feature interior lighting, and the left-hand case includes a USB-C charging port. The tank bag is also new. For the first time, it is completely strapless and attaches to the bike via a tank ring. POWERFUL BOXER ENGINE WITH SMOOTH, EFFICIENT RIDING The boxer engine in the new BMW R 1300 R has a capacity of exactly 1,300 cc, while the ratio between bore and stroke is 106.5 to 73 mm (predecessor: 102.5 to 76 mm). This increase in capacity derives from an enlarged cylinder bore and a new crankshaft with reduced stroke. It has an output of 107 kW (145 hp) (predecessor: 100 kW (136 hp), still at 7 750 rpm, and develops a maximum torque of 149 Nm at 6 500 rpm (predecessor:143 Nm at 6 250 rpm), making it by far the most powerful serial production BMW boxer engine to date. Its maximum engine speed is 9,000 rpm. THREE MODES STANDARD, DYNAMIC MODES OPTIONAL, And MSR included In standard trim, the new R 1300 R has three riding modes for adaptation to individual rider preferences. The Rain and Road riding modes allow riding characteristics to be adapted to most road conditions. The Eco riding mode also makes it possible to use the innovative BMW ShiftCam technology primarily in such a way that the maximum range can be achieved with a single tank of fuel. On request the new R 1300 R can also be fitted with the optional equipment item Riding Modes Pro ex works: among other things, this comprises the additional riding modes Dynamic and Dynamic Pro. With the riding mode pre-selection the rider can use the riding mode button to make an individual selection. In this way, a preferred and easily manageable number of riding modes can be configured and selected while riding. Engine drag torque control (MSR) is on board even in standard trim. This can be used to safely avoid unstable riding conditions that can occur during coasting or downshifting due to excessive brake slip at the rear wheel. In these cases, MSR instantly opens the throttle valves to such an extent that drag torque is equalised and the motorcycle stabilises. OPTIONAL ASA for auto clutch and shifting With the automated shift assistant (ASA), BMW Motorrad offers an innovative technical solution to make motorcycling easier and more comfortable. True to the motto Simplify your Ride, automated clutch operation and gear changes puts the riding experience even more front and centre without sacrificing the dynamic of the shifting process. All-new steel chassis with aluminium rear frame The chassis of the new BMW R 1300 R has been completely redesigned. The centrepiece is the new sheet metal main frame made of steel, which in addition to a significant optimisation of the installation space for even more compact packaging also offers higher levels of stiffness than the predecessor model. In the course of the redesign, the rear frame was also completely reconceived. In place of the previous tubular steel construction, the new R 1300 R now has a rear frame made of die-cast aluminium. In combination with a drive unit that is now much more compact, the new design of the chassis achieved a significant concentration of mass towards the overall centre of gravity, which is reflected in noticeable handling benefits. At the same time, the new R 1300 R is even more precise and stable when braking, requires noticeably less effort to ride, and offers an even more satisfyingly precise response of the suspension elements. New fork, lighter wheels, and refined suspension In the new BMW R 1300 R, front wheel guide is handled by a new upside-down telescopic fork with an inner tube diameter of 47 mm. The rear wheel guide of the new R 1300 R has also been redesigned. The hallmark of the Evo Paralever is a significantly stiffer connection via the suspension in the frame and a continuous swinging arm quick-release axle. The new R 1300 R also features new 17-inch aluminium cast wheels with hollow-spoke design. All in all they weigh in at more than 1.4 kg less than the existing wheels. The reduced rotational masses result in both improved acceleration and brake response as well as optimised handling qualities. The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White Optional DSA with dynamic damping and spring rate With its dynamic adjustment of the damping and adjustable spring rest at the rear, the standard electronic Dynamic ESA itself offers a high level of riding safety and riding fun on a wide variety of terrains. The electronic Dynamic Suspension Adjustment (DSA) now goes one step further, combining the dynamic adjustment of the front and rear damping with a corresponding adjustment of the spring rate (spring stiffness) depending on the selected riding mode, riding condition and manoeuvres. This makes the new BMW R 1300 R the first series production motorcycle with an upside-down telescopic fork that allows adjustment of the spring rate. Automatic load compensation is provided by the adjustable spring rest. With DSA, the rider benefits from even more refined handling and increased banking freedom. High-performance brakes with ABS Pro standard, sport optional The R 1300 R comes as standard with a twin disc brake featuring two radially mounted four-piston fixed callipers at the front and a single disc brake with two-piston floating calliper at the rear in conjunction with BMW Motorrad Integral ABS Pro. The newBMW R 1300 R can be fitted with the sport brake system as optional equipment ex works. In addition to a sportier look with titanium-coloured brake callipers, it offers a slight increase in braking performance. Dynamic LED headlight standard, adaptive option available BMW Motorrad is regarded as the pioneer par excellence when it comes to motorcycling safety and related innovations. Accordingly, the new R 1300 R comes as standard with a newly designed LED headlight in a dynamic octagonal shape, featuring a distinctive light icon. With the optional Adaptive Turning Light, the dipped beam of the standard full LED headlight is optimised for cornering, depending on the banking position, by activating additional LED elements. In this way, the bend is almost fully illuminated because the light moves to where the motorcycle is heading. By optimising the light pattern, the dipped beam light ensures an even wider and more homogeneous illumination of the road. optional riding assistant with ACC and FCW The new BMW R 1300 R can be equipped with the Riding Assistant for even safer and more comfortable motorcycling. This includes Active Cruise Control (ACC) and Front Collision Warning (FCW). optional NAV PREP NOW INCLUDES ELECTRIC UNLOCKING This item of ex works optional equipment allows quick and secure attachment and operation of a navigation device or smartphone using a mount cradle. For the first time, this holder no longer requires a key it unlocks electrically for maximum convenience. An extensive program of optional equipment and optional accessories is available for further customisation of the new BMW R 1300 R.

The precision-engineered 250cc and 450cc powertrains deliver class-leading performance, coupled with the optimum blend of unparalleled low-speed agility and confidence-inspiring high-speed stability. Developed entirely by Triumph in close collaboration with five-time World Champion Ivn Cervantes and four-time World Enduro Champion Paul Edmondson, the TF 250-E and TF 450-E share a unique, lightweight aluminium chassis, engineered for agility and strength. The new spine frame design provides exceptional handling and stability across all terrains. Triumphs new Enduro models are equipped with premium brand components and feature the latest offroad technology, together with a rider-focused ergonomics package and race-inspired styling. Sleek bodywork, Triumph Performance Yellow graphics, and integrated LED lighting give the bikes a bold, aggressive look that stands out on the start line. Building on Triumphs reputation for excellent quality and reliability, the new models will also have world-class support, backed by a global network of specialist dealers and a 24/7 parts ordering and supply system. Triumph Motorcycles Chief Product Officer, Steve Sargent, said: We are entering the competitive Enduro scene with new models that introduce cutting-edge advancements in Enduro performance and technology. Featuring a brand-new chassis and engine platform, the 2026 Enduro models are designed to elevate performance, handling, comfort, and usability, meeting the diverse needs of both professional and amateur riders. Working with Paul Edmondsons team to test these bikes in real-world environments, our team have refined the agility and performance of these models, ensuring they excel whether a rider is new to Enduro or racing competitively. This level of all-round usability and excellence has not been seen in this sector before. Paul Edmondson has played a key role in the development and testing of the new range and will be leading the new Triumph Factory Racing Enduro Team into the EnduroGP Championship in April. Triumph Enduro bikes are built for limitless adventure, engineered with precision handling, powerful engines, and race-proven technology to dominate rugged trails, steep climbs, and unpredictable landscapes with confidence, commented Edmondson. From technical enduro sections to untamed wilderness, these bikes deliver exceptional performance, control, and durabilityempowering riders to push their boundaries. We have all been working so hard to make these new models as agile, fast, and lightweight as possible, refusing to compromise on functionality or usability. Precision-Engineered for Enduro Excellence Triumph has developed a 250cc and 450cc performance racing powertrain, designed for winning performance. The TF 450-E's 450cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine delivers impressive power and torque with a linear power curve, ensuring smooth acceleration across varied conditions, from technical ascents to high-speed straights. The TF 450-E is designed to excel in high-speed enduro racing, ideal for experienced riders seeking power, speed and versatility on open trails and hills. With its greater low-end and mid-range torque, it tackles hill climbs, sand dunes, and situations requiring less gear shifting with ease. Its smooth, tractable power delivery and controllable, connected engine character ensure riders can feel the bike's rear wheel traction and the seamless transfer of power to the ground. Triumphs all-new 250 enduro engine is the most powerful engine in its class, delivering responsive, manageable power with a purposeful character, perfectly suited for technical sections, tight enduro challenges, and ideal for riders seeking fun and accessible performance. Providing 42.3 PS of power and 27.8 Nm of torque, with a broad power curve and strong bottom-end, the TF 250-E excels in slow-speed technical sections and drives through to a powerful top-end at 12,800 RPM. Both powertrains have been developed to have more inertia than the motocross engine, providing a more stable, tractable power delivery across diverse, unpredictable race conditions. This is complemented by the six-speed Exedy racing clutch, which allows smooth, clutchless upshifts, maintaining momentum in tight, technical sections. Advanced fuel injection and ignition systems manage power efficiently, ensuring instant throttle response and reliable performance throughout demanding rides. A bespoke Dellorto 44mm throttle body provides an air bypass system for cold starts and a manually adjustable idle speed. Del West titanium valves and a forged Knig aluminium piston ensure consistent performance during prolonged high-RPM operation, significantly reducing servicing requirements. For the TF 450-E, the gudgeon pin and rockers are further enhanced with Diamond Like Carbon (DLC) coatings, which improves durability and reduces friction. The high-capacity radiator and auxiliary fan combined with tool-free Dual-stage filter provided by Twin-air, provide consistent engine cooling, ensuring reliable power delivery on long, demanding rides. Athena Engine Management System Triumph and Athena have combined their extensive off-road experience to create a perfect synergy, resulting in the development of new software strategies with a strong emphasis on drivability and tractability. The engine management system for the TF250-E and TF450-E features completely bespoke software. This new system benefits from co-developed mapping and traction control strategies, specifically tailored by Triumph and Athena to enhance performance and reliability. Dual Engine Maps adapt performance for different conditions at the touch of a button, giving riders the edge to adapt and excel in varying race conditions. Riders can switch between two distinct engine maps on the fly. One for aggressive performance, the other for smoother, more controlled delivery on technical terrain. Additional maps can also be added with the optional Wi-Fi module and the Triumph MX Tune Pro app. The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White Exhaust System The lightweight stainless steel exhaust system on the TF 250-E boasts an integrated Helmholtz resonator in the header pipe, enhancing cylinder evacuation and performance. The TF 450-E features a side-resonator in the silencer, specifically designed for targeted noise attenuation, resulting in a deep, powerful exhaust note. Lightweight Aluminium Frame Both models feature Triumphs unique, lightweight aluminium spine frame, with optimised mass, stiffness, and a low centre of gravity. This provides exceptional agility, enhancing high-speed stability, and delivering sharp directional control and confidence. Post-fabrication machining enhances dimensional accuracy while the frame also features in-house hand TIG-welded craftsmanship. Advanced Suspension System The fully adjustable KYB coil-sprung 48mm forks and 3-way adjustable linkage-driven rear suspension are specifically tuned for Enduro challenges, ensuring responsive control, excellent power transfer and maximum traction in demanding conditions. With a reduction of 10mm compared to Triumphs motocross models and enhanced settings, it offers an outstanding balance between handling and bump absorption, while minimising pitch during cornering. Easy to set up and service, this market-leading suspension offers high-level adjustability for rider weight and riding style, and exceptional tunability for varying terrains, from muddy tracks to rocky paths. Enduro-specific swingarm geometry ensures accurate front-end feedback, empowering riders to make rapid adjustments to navigate obstacles, and delivering intuitive, inspiring handling for both competition and adventure. Rider-focused technology Ensuring the new TF 250-E and TF 450-E are best-in-class, both models are equipped with an impressive selection of premium brand specifications and cutting-edge technologies, optimising performance in all conditions. These can be accessed using intuitive handlebar-mounted controls featuring illuminated buttons for quick, easy adjustments, while the digital speedo screen provides real-time data, including engine temperature, trip information, and gear position. The advanced traction control system monitors rear-wheel slip and modulates power output to provide consistent grip on unpredictable surfaces, while the optimised launch control manages torque delivery to maximise traction off the line, helping riders achieve consistent, competitive starts. The Triumph-designed quickshifter enables seamless, clutch-less upshifts between second and sixth gear for uninterrupted power delivery and preserves momentum during race-critical sections. More premium components, included as standard, include the Galfer performance braking system with 260mm front brake disc and 220mm rear brake disc, combined with Brembo twin 24mm piston floating front caliper, a single 26mm piston floating rear caliper and adjustable span brake lever. Both models are fitted with Michelin Enduro 2 tyres, featuring an innovative tread pattern that provides better grip and traction, designed for diverse terrains (soft to hard) and conditions (mud to dry). The D.I.D DirtStar 7000 series aluminium rims, with a black anodised finish and Triumph-designed lightweight cast and machined aluminium hubs completes the look. Ergonomics and Style for the Modern Racer Built for the demands of competitive racing and extended trail riding, the ergonomics of the TF 250-E and TF 450-E have been designed to maximise both performance and rider comfort. Pro Taper ACF Carbon Core handlebars with adjustable mounts enable riders to personalise the fit and feel, perfecting the positioning between the handlebar, seat and footpegs. This can minimise fatigue, enhance control during sharp turns, and reduce rider strain during prolonged standing. The ODI half-waffle lock-on grips offer exceptional hold and durability, ensuring control in all conditions. A 955mm seat height provides optimal clearance while maintaining a manageable stand-over for technical sections while a non-slip Pyramid seat offers excellent grip and a rubbery consistency to improve positioning in both dry and wet conditions. The ergonomic design and high-quality foam padding provide superior comfort, allowing riders to ride longer without discomfort. The seat cover material is highly durable and resistant to wear and tear, making it ideal for off-road conditions. Tough, purposeful and unmistakably race-ready, both Enduro models are styled with sharp lines and an aggressive stance. They feature aggressive, minimalistic bodywork, developed and manufactured in-house by Triumph to be lightweight and durable. Racing-inspired graphics in Triumph Performance Yellow, Black and White and magnesium engine covers, which also make trackside servicing easier, complete the look. The 8.3-litre fuel tank provides a long range for extended adventures, and the compact, integrated LED lights enhance visibility in low-light conditions. Racing Pedigree Triumphs globally renowned engineering teams bring expertise in precision engineering, innovation and award-winning quality. These teams are behind Triumphs greatest modern racing achievements, including the Moto2TM championship where Triumphs engines have helped to transform the class, setting new Moto2 lap and speed records at tracks around the world.

Ducati has refined themodel to offer improved road and track capability while keeping the signature aesthetics and engineering that define the Panigale series. We're lucky enough to have one in the Ducati North London showroom, and in this review, well go through its key features and improvements. Check out our exclusive video for a full breakdown of the 2025 Ducati Panigale V2 S and see this model in motion: Weight Reduction and Engine Performance The 2025 Ducati Panigale V2 S features a new890cc V2 engine that delivers 120 horsepower and 93Nm of torque. Not only that butit weighs just 54kg, making it the lightest twin-cylinder ever produced in Borgo Panigale! The new model has been designed for balanced handling on both the track and the road, providing an enjoyable combination of power and control. With a weight of 176kg, this is the lightest Panigale V2 model to date. Ducati has reduced weight by a good 17kg compared to the previous model,inheriting the characteristic sports attitude and track performance of that bike and adding a level of ease, comfort and riding pleasure. The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White Suspension, Braking, and WHEELS For the V2 S, Ducati elevates performance with premium hlins suspension, setting a new benchmark in its class. Equipped with a 43mm hlins NIX-30 fork at the front and an hlins rear shock absorber, it delivers enhanced ride quality and responsiveness.A standout design touch? That bright yellow suspension spring pops against Ducatis signature red, giving the V2 S an extra dose of attitude. Braking performance has also been upgraded, with the introduction of Brembo M50 monobloccalipers, replacing the previous M4.32s. This is another adjustmentwhich reduces the overall weight, shaving offanother280g whileproviding better braking efficiency. The new V2 S comes fitted with lightweight die-cast Y spoked aluminium wheels, paired with high-performance Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tyres for superior grip and precise handling. For those looking to push the limits on the track, slick tyres are also available in the same size used in the Supersport World Championship, delivering maximum performance where it matters most. Technology and Riding Modes The new 5-inch TFT display on the V2 S offers enhanced clarity and brightness, ensuring all vital riding data is easy to read at a glance. Ducati has also fine-tuned the riding modes, giving riders the flexibility to choose between four base setups: Race, Sport, Road, and Wet, each designed to optimise performance for different conditions. Every mode comes with pre-set performance levels and control interventions, all fully customisable. Riders can fine-tune their experience further by selecting from three different engine response settingsHigh, Medium, and Low Power Mode, with Low Mode capping power at 95 hp. Additional adjustments can be made to ABS, Wheelie Control, Engine Control, and Engine Brake intervention, offering complete control over the ride. For those pushing limits on the track, the Track Info Mode allows real-time adjustments to control levels while riding, ensuring peak performance with every twist of the throttle. PERFORMANCE UPGRADES The 2025 Panigale V2 S is available with three different Ducati Performance configurations: The Time Attack Configuration is built for the track, using the same setup as Ducatis official riders. With the Termignoni full racing exhaust pushing power to 126 hp and weight dropping to 170kg, it delivers pure race performance. The hlins steering damper improves stability, while adjustable footpegs and low handlebars create an aggressive riding position. Removing mirrors and the licence plate holder completes the track-ready transformation. For a sleek, lightweight aesthetic, the Carbon Configuration enhances the Panigale V2 S with extensive carbon fibre upgrades. Termignoni homologated silencers, carbon front and rear mudguards, and red brake callipers create a striking contrast against the black carbon finish. The Dynamic Configuration blends sportiness with versatility, featuring Termignoni silencers, adjustable footpegs, and red brake callipers. A higher tinted screen adds a performance edge, while the included passenger kit lets you share the thrill of the ride.

MORE STORIES Thu, 20 Feb 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/new-ducati-xdiavel-v4 A unique bike, whose soul now combines the performance of the MotoGP-derived V4 engine with a cruiser riding position and the sensual beauty that characterizes all Ducatis. An even more muscular, sophisticated and high-performance reinterpretation of the concepts that the first XDiavel 1260 introduced in the category. A bike for those who want something different from everything else and love to stand out. From enthusiasts looking for a bike with great style to lovers of the cruiser charm fascinated, at the same time, by the Dragster performance that has always characterized the XDiavel. Its lines are muscular and at the same time elegant. The low and relaxed riding position still offers the rider great control. Its personality magnetizes attention. The XDiavel V4 is a bike capable of gliding at low speed on the city boulevards with the same naturalness with which it dances between the curves on the hills. The XDiavel V4 is surprising. Its 1,158 cc V4 Granturismo engine gives it benchmark performance for the category. With 168 hp of power and 12.8 kgm of torque, it combines linearity at low revs with vigorous torque across the entire delivery range. The counter-rotating crankshaft, combined with one of the lowest weights in the category (229 kg in running order without fuel) give the XDiavel V4 handling that is a benchmark in the segment. Unmistakable line The XDiavel V4 is a bike of contrasts, and it shows at first glance. The low and sleek sport cruiser line, enhanced by the light that plays on the soft surfaces, represents an exciting contrast with the image of power and technology conveyed by the mechanicals. Bold shapes, inspired by supercars, whose extraordinary aesthetic and technical nature is underlined by the proudly visible four-exit exhaust. At the rider's request, the XDiavel V4 can be a cruiser on which to enjoy the sunset from a coastal road or a dragster ready to sprint at the green light. The muscular fuel tank captures the eye with the new and iridescent Black Lava and Burning Red colours, created specifically for the XDiavel V4, which produce fluid and elegant reflections when hit by light. The signature of the front and rear light clusters and the dynamic direction indicators* integrated into the side panels, naturally full-LED, contribute to unmistakably characterising the look of the XDiavel V4. The front DRL*, with its double C profile, attracts attention in a play of contrasts with the internal texturing of the headlight. Together with the rear light cluster, positioned under the tail fairing, it greets the rider with the Welcome Effect when the instrument panel is turned on, emphasising the sophistication and attention to every detail of the XDiavel. The single-sided aluminium swingarm leaves you free to admire the deep but visually very light rear wheel, on which the imposing 240/45 tyre is fitted. The five star-shaped spokes of the rims, with machined surfaces, reinforce the reference to American muscle cars. The rider, who can enjoy the comfort of a low seat (770 mm from the ground) and a handlebar set back and lowered, compared to the XDiavel 1260 to facilitate use especially when manoeuvring, has full control of the bike in every situation. Comfort is substantially improved, thanks to the rear suspension with increased travel of 25 mm compared to the XDiavel 1260 and, above all, a wide, well-profiled and thicker seat. The passenger can also count on a more spacious (+30% in width, +50% in length) and comfortable (+25 mm thick) seat, and on a rear grab handle supplied as standard. Enthusiasts who prefer a riding position that allows them to exploit the dynamic qualities of the XDiavel V4 even more can move the footpegs to a more rearward position thanks to the special kit offered by the Ducati catalogue. And if equipped with the accessory tail fairing, the XDiavel V4 can also become a feisty single-seater. XDiavel V4 Colours Burning Red, Black Lava Main standard features V4 Granturismo engine, 1,158 cc 168 hp (124 kW) at 10,750 rpm, 126 Nm (12.8 kgm) at 7,500 rpm Valve clearance check every 60,000 km Aluminium monocoque frame 20-litre steel tank Full LED headlight with double C DRL and Welcome Effect at key-on Full LED rear light cluster under the tailpiece with Welcome Effect at key-on Integrated dynamic indicators* Coming Home functionality 50 mm fully adjustable fork Fully adjustable monoshock Single-sided swingarm in aluminium Braking system with double 330 mm disc and Brembo Stylema monobloc calipers at the front 240/45 Diablo Rosso III rear tyre Chain final drive Cast aluminium rims with machined spokes 6.9 TFT dashboard and 8:3 aspect ratio with Bluetooth integration, Ducati Link App Optional integrated Turn-by-turn navigation system 3 Power Modes, 4 Riding Modes (Sport, Touring, Urban, Wet) Customizable riding position with two positions of the rider footpegs Passenger grab handle supplied Latest-generation electronics package with 6-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (6D IMU): ABS Cornering; Ducati Traction Control (DTC); Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC); Ducati Power Launch (DPL); Ducati Quick Shift up/down (DQS), Cruise Control. Mon, 17 Feb 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/first-lookharley-davidson-sportsters-2025-a-new-era-of-performance-and-style FIRST LOOK: HARLEY-DAVIDSON SPORTSTER S 2025 PUBLISHED 12.02.2025 TheHarley-Davidsons Sportster S has always been about blending heritage styling with modern performance, and for 2025, it pushes those boundaries even further. With a blacked-out powertrain, premium paint finishes, upgraded suspension, and race-inspired detailing, this latest iteration refines what it means to ride a performance cruiser. From its high-revving Revolution Max 1250T engine to its precision-tuned suspension and bold, muscular stance, the 2025 Sportster S is built for those who demand more from the road. Whether carving through city streets or opening up on long stretches, this bike delivers raw power with refined control. A PERFECT FUSION OF HERITAGE AND MODERNITY The 2025 Sportster S maintains its aggressive, low-slung silhouette, but with enhanced details that make it even more striking.

For those who love custom aesthetics, the updated premium paint options include Billiard Gray, Vivid Black, Brilliant Red, and the all-new Factory Custom Mystic Shifta dynamic colourway that shifts from gunmetal to purple to blue, and even an orange glow in full sunlight. Every detail, from the blacked-out powertrain to the high-mounted stainless steel exhaust, reinforces the bikes bold, muscular attitude. The beefy 432 mm front tyre not only enhances handling but also gives the Sportster S a strong, planted stance, ensuring it stands out on the road. PERFORMANCE THAT COMMANDS ATTENTION At the heart of the Sportster S is the Revolution Max 1250T Engine, a liquid-cooled powerhouse with variable valve timing that delivers 90 kW at 7,500 rpm and 125 Nm of torque. The wide rev range and instant throttle response ensure explosive acceleration while maintaining smooth, predictable power delivery. The new and improved suspension setup transforms the riding experience. The three-way adjustable rear shock now offers 60 percent more travel, increasing from two inches to 82 mm, dramatically improving ride quality without raising the seat height. The fully adjustable 43mm inverted front forks allow riders to fine-tune compression, rebound, and preload, ensuring that handling remains sharp and responsive in any riding condition. When its time to slow things down, the premium Brembo braking system provides exceptional stopping power and direct feedback, giving riders total confidence whether navigating tight corners or high-speed runs. The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White ADVANCED RIDER-FOCUSED TECHNOLOGY The Sportster S is more than just raw powerits a fully modernised riding experience. The four-inch full-colour TFT display is sleek and intuitive, allowing riders to switch between Ride Modes, enable turn-by-turn navigation, and customise Rider Safety Enhancements.

Combining classic batwing fairing styling with modern comfort, cutting-edge technology, and effortless performance, this motorcycle is built for riders who want to cover serious miles in complete luxury. With heated grips, a plush two-up seat, premium wind protection, and ample storage, the Street Glide Ultra is designed to keep you and your passenger comfortable on every journey, whether cruising through the UKs rolling countryside or embarking on a cross-country adventure. TIMELESS DESIGN WITH TOURING-OPTIMISED COMFORT The Street Glide Ultra maintains the iconic batwing fairing, but for 2025, it has been redesigned with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and wind-tunnel testing for improved aerodynamics. The new tall windshield is 101.6 mm taller than the standard Street Glide, significantly reducing helmet buffeting by up to 60 percent, keeping both the rider and passenger shielded from the wind. A two-up comfort seat ensures all-day support, rotating the riders hips slightly forward to relieve spinal pressure. Whether tackling city traffic or gliding down the open road, this design allows for a more relaxed and upright riding position, making long journeys more enjoyable. The King Tour-Pak luggage carrier not only provides a sturdy backrest with armrests for the passenger but also adds hard-shell storage, fairing cubbies, and large saddlebagsgiving you 0.139m of total storage space, more than double that of a standard Street Glide. Each Street Glide Ultra features a new fuel tank medallion, available in chrome or black to match the bikes trim. Saddlebag guards, finished to match the bikes styling, provide additional protection against tip-overs, ensuring that both aesthetics and practicality are perfectly balanced. POWER AND PRECISION TO LEAD THE PACK Harley-Davidson has equipped the Street Glide Ultra with the Milwaukee-Eight 117 V-Twin engine, offering even more torque and horsepower than the Twin-Cooled 114. The liquid-cooled cylinder heads and centrally located radiator help manage heat efficiently, channelling air directly into the intake for faster cooling and consistent power delivery. This performance-focused touring machine is supported by SHOWA dual outboard emulsion technology rear shocks, offering 76.2 mm of travel. The remote hydraulic preload adjustment allows for easy, tool-free tuning, ensuring a smooth ride regardless of the road conditions or passenger load.

All three body components now look as if they have been cast from a single piece. The side cover perfectly matches this design style with its more marked side contour. The more modern styling is also reflected in the rough look of the fork section, the fork tubes now free and without classic fork sleeves. Other features that harmonise with the more dynamic design style are the new silencers with a circular cross-section and the newly designed individual seat with foam that is 10 mm thicker and with modified design contours.

The front fender now incorporates the mudguard extension, which has been significantly lowered for a stylish effect. The new fender not only harmonises with the fork sleeves still available for the R 18 Classic but also confidently underlines its affiliation to the nostalgic touring segment.

Combined with a narrow seat profile, the rider can feel an intuitive and effortless connection with the bike, delivering precise handling and real-world comfort. The new Speed Triples rider-focused package of equipment and technology puts the rider in control, offering exceptional levels of adjustment. This includes the cutting-edge hlins Objective Based Tuning Interface (OBTi), which allows riders to easily adjust the suspensions dynamic damping characteristics in different riding scenarios. The seven parameters that can be independently adjusted are: Front Firmness, Rear Firmness, Braking Support, Acceleration Support, Initial Acceleration Support, Cornering Support, and Cruising Support. There is also new independently adjustable Front Wheel Lift Control, Engine Braking Control and Brake Slide Control, as well as fully adjustable cruise control. Triumph Motorcycles Chief Product Officer Steve Sargent said: The new Speed Triple 1200 RS is now more refined, with a significantly improved electronics package, that makes it even easier for customers to exploit and enjoy the improved performance. MORE POWERFUL THAN EVER With 183PS at 10,750rpm, the new engine delivers 3PS more than the previous generation of Speed Triple. Torque is improved too, with 128Nm at 8,750rpm, which is not only 3Nm more than the outgoing model but is delivered slightly lower in the rev range. Incorporating learnings and expertise gathered during Triumph's Moto2 engine development, the Speed Triple 1200 RS engine has been engineered to be more powerful and durable, as well as being compact and lightweight. A new, free-flowing exhaust system and compact, lightweight silencer streamline gas flow and centralise mass to improve performance, while maintaining the Speed Triple's signature triple bark. In addition, the must-have accessory for the new Speed Triple will be the new Akrapovi silencer, which features a titanium outer wrap and mounting bracket, finished with a carbon fibre endcap and laser etched Akrapovi logo. RAZOR SHARP HANDLING Featuring innovative 'spool valve' technology for even faster adjustment and improved comfort, state-of-the-art hlins SmartEC3 semi-active technology delivers perfectly tailored, precise and dynamic handling. This includes the hlins Objective Based Tuning Interface (OBTi), which continuously monitors and adjusts the suspension damping characteristics. So, whether riding in a straight line, braking for a corner, balancing the bike mid corner, or accelerating out of a corner, it adjusts the damping characteristics to give the desired performance in each scenario. Riders can now customise this performance using an intuitive menu system on the TFT instruments, so the bike continuously monitors and adapts the damping in real time to deliver the optimum performance for the conditions. For the next level of precision and control, the Speed Triple 1200 RS also features an adjustable steering damper, delivering smooth and predictable handling in every situation, as well as a pair of Brembo Stylema calipers with an MCS lever, delivering impeccable stopping performance and a customisable brake feel. Completing the set-up, the Speed Triple 1200 RS has Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP V3s fitted as standard, which have a bi-compound design for optimised grip, stability and durability. Giving the perfect balance of agility and control, the bike is compact, with bars that are slightly wider and higher than the outgoing model, creating a sporty, upright roadster stance that delivers effortlessly precise handling, real-world comfort. Where the yokes have been updated to accommodate the wider bars and the addition of the steering damper, the finish of these components has been updated to a sophisticated and understated black tone, creating a contrast with the gold hlins forks. BOLD DESIGN AND AGGRESSIVE STYLING With sharp lines and a purposeful stance, the Speed Triple 1200 RS has a strikingly handsome silhouette, with a sculpted tank and minimalist rear end that blends seamlessly with the rear light and numberplate hanger. Taking cues from the 30 years of Speed Triple design DNA, the new model retains the signature twin headlights and single sided swingarm, which reinforce the bikes modern and aggressive styling, as well as its serious performance capability. Evolving the design for an even sportier look in 2025, the aluminum twin-spar frame and lightweight new wheels reduce gyroscopic forces for faster turn in and greater agility, making carving through corners effortless, while a new seat cowl sharpens the rear end of the bike. Despite all the extra technology and the electronic suspension, the Speed Triple is still one of the lightest bikes in the class, at just 199kg wet weight with fuel. Contributing to this, is the Speed Triple's new lithium ion battery, which is significantly lighter than a conventional battery. From the bar end mirrors, to the meticulously sculpted swingarm, the attention to detail, build quality, and overall level of finish, are second to none. The 2025 Tiger Sport 660 on-road in Crystal White RIDER-FOCUSED TECHNOLOGY The 2025 updates also bring new performance electronics that are configurable by the rider and adjustable independently of the riding modes. The new front wheel lift control system, which incorporates inputs from the six-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) to determine the pitch of the bike, offers four levels of adjustment. Engine Braking Control is customisable according to the rider's preference, complementing the adjustable throttle maps and allowing riders to adjust the engine feel to suit their own riding style and the conditions. Brake Slide Assist, which is available in Track mode only, optimises the ABS calibration for track riding by allowing more front wheel slip and more rear wheel lift. This maximises performance on track and minimises feelings of being intrusive, all while providing a safety net in case of unexpected conditions. With five distinct riding modes (Rain, Road, Sport, Track, Rider), Optimised Cornering ABS and switchable Optimised Cornering Traction Control, and the Triumph Shift Assist up and down quickshifter all fitted as standard, the Speed Triple has all the advanced features to maximise performance and safety in all conditions. The design of the 5" TFT instrument interface provides instant access to all key information, controlled by the intuitive 5-way joystick and backlit switches. The standard-fit My Triumph Connectivity System enables turn-by-turn navigation, as well as phone and music control. Theres fully adjustable cruise control for longer rides, and a new Emergency Deceleration Warning feature activates a high-frequency flash of the brake light to alert other road users in case of hard braking and rapid deceleration. The ignition, steering lock and fuel filler cap feature keyless operation on the Speed Triple 1200 RS. For added security, the wireless function can be disabled with a single button press. THE ORIGINAL HOOLIGAN Triumph Motorcycles Chief Commercial Officer Paul Stroud commented: In 2024 we celebrated the Speed Triples 30th Anniversary with owners, fans and collectors, clearly demonstrating how every iteration of this model has been as groundbreaking as that original hooligan we launched in 1994. Back then, it sparked the birth of a whole new category of naked sports bikes. Today, we are setting a new benchmark for triple powered performance with this new Speed Triple 1200 RS. Our customers will love the heart-racing acceleration and soul-stirring sound from this incredible triple engine, as well as the remarkable level of adjustment and control the new technology provides, giving riders the opportunity to truly tailor their ride to suit their style. Unmistakeably Triumph, the handling is exquisite, as is the level of quality and detail in every aspect of the design. ON THE ROAD Available from 17,495 OTR, customers can choose from three eye-catching colours, including Jet Black, or the premium options; Granite and Diablo Red, and Granite and Performance Yellow, all with striking new graphics. With more than 25 Genuine Triumph Accessories available, owners can make the Speed Triple their own. Bikes will be arriving in dealerships from April 2025.

Fri, 17 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/6-tips-for-winter-motorcycle-care 6 TIPS FOR WINTER MOTORCYCLE CARE PUBLISHED 17.01.2025 RIDE IN CONFIDENCE! As winter arrives, motorcycle enthusiasts often face the question: how do I keep my bike in top condition when its not in regular use? Whether your bike is parked for the season or youre still riding on crisp, clear days, these expert tips will help you prevent damage, ensure safety, and save money on repairs. Lets make sure your bike stays as ready for the road as you are! 1. PROTECT YOUR FUEL SYSTEM Fuel preservation is one of the most critical steps in motorcycle maintenance during extended storage. Modern fuels, especially those with ethanol, can degrade over time, leading to costly damage to your fuel system. Heres what to do: Fill your tank completely: A full tank prevents air pockets where condensation can form, reducing the risk of water contamination. Use a fuel additive: Additives such as Harley-Davidsons Ethanol Guard are specifically designed to stabilise fuel and prevent the ethanol from turning into a gel-like substance that clogs fuel injectors or carburettors. After adding the fuel treatment, start your motorcycle and let it idle until fully warmed up.This ensures the additive circulates through the system, protecting even the smallest components. Skipping this step could result in issues like a rough idle, difficulty starting, or even fuel overflow in carbureted bikes due to blockages in the float bowl. Proactive care now can save you significant frustration and expense come spring when youre ready to ride! 2. PREVENT TYRE DAMAGE Tyres often go unnoticed during storage, but improper care can lead to cracks, flat spots, or uneven wear.Tyres left underinflated can develop permanent deformities where the weight of the bike causes bulging, leaving you with reduced performance and safety. To prevent this: Check and inflate your tyres: Refer to your owners manual or contact a trusted professional at LINDto find the correct tyre pressure for your model. Use a quality tyre inflator: Ensuring your tyres are inflated to the manufacturers recommended PSI is a quick and effective way to avoid costly replacements. If youre unsure about tyre care or need assistance, your local LIND store is always here to help. Pop in for a free tyre pressure check and expert advice. 3. KEEP YOUR BIKE CLEAN Cleaning your motorcycle might just seem cosmetic, but its also a practical maintenance step!Dirt, grit, and salt from the road can cause corrosion and hide damage that needs attention. Pay particular attention to: Brake components: Salt and grime can coat your discs and calipers, reducing braking efficiency and causing long-term damage if left unaddressed. General cleanliness: Use a hose, a bucket of water, and specialist cleaning products from brands like Harley-Davidson or Muc-Off to gently but effectively clean your bike. Taking the time to clean your bike thoroughly not only keeps it looking awesome but also ensures critical safety components like brakes perform as they should. A well-maintained motorcycle is a safer motorcycle! 4. STAY WARM WHILE RIDING Cold weather presents unique challenges for us to ride in. Beyond the obvious discomfort, extreme cold can numb your hands and feet, slowing your reactions and potentially compromising control of your bike. To stay warm and ride safely: Invest in thermal layers: High-quality base layers can make a world of difference. Choose winter-specific riding gear: Look for windproof and insulated options that balance warmth with mobility. We stock a wide range of purpose-built winter gear to keep you comfortable and in control, whether youre riding through chilly mornings or braving icy evenings. Explore our ridewear collection online or in-store. 5. AVOID CONDENSATION IN YOUR ENGINE One common winter mistake is starting your bike occasionally just to keep it running. While this seems like good practice, it can actually cause more harm than good. Why? Starting your bike warms it up briefly, but when its returned to a cold storage space, the rapid cooling creates condensation inside the engine. Over time, this moisture can mix with oil and lead to degraded performance, especially when youre ready to ride in the spring! Instead, store your bike properly and leave it until the weather warms up. If youve followed the other steps on this list, your motorcycle will be ready when you are. 6. CARE FOR YOUR BATTERY Winter is tough on motorcycle batteries. Colder temperatures slow down the chemical reactions inside, making it harder for the battery to hold a charge. To avoid frustration: Use a portable battery pack: A compact unit like the Harley-Davidson HOG Booster Portable Battery Pack 1000A is a fantastic backup. Small enough to fit in your saddlebag, this powerful device ensures you can jump-start your bike in seconds, even after months of storage. Keep it charged: If possible, use a trickle charger to maintain your battery over the winter. A little battery care goes a long way toward ensuring your bike fires up effortlessly when its time to hit the road again. MORE TIPS & TRICKS Looking for more motorcycle care advice?

MORE STORIES Fri, 17 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/first-look2025-bmw-r-12-s FIRST LOOK: 2025 BMW 12 S PUBLISHED 15.01.2025 With the BMW R 12 S, BMW Motorrad is expanding its Heritage range with a fitting tribute to the iconic R 90 S, which in 1973 not only set a sporty exclamation mark for BMW Motorrad with 67 hp and a top speed of 200 km/h in terms of riding dynamics. Moreover, the then Chief Designer Hans A. Muth skillfully expressed the sporty ambitions in the design language and sent the BMW R 90 S, as the world's first production motorcycle, with a handlebar fairing designed according to aerodynamic aspects and a red-laid "90" in the R 90 S emblem of the engine, successfully into the race for the buyers' favor. RACING SUCCESSHELPED THE R 90S TO ACHIEVE AN ICONIC IMAGE It didn't take long for the image of the R 90 S to also benefit from racing successes. For example, at the Production TT on the Isle of Man, where Hans-Otto Butenuth and Helmut Dhne celebrated a class victory in 1976. In the same year, Steve McLaughlin also won the prestigious 200 Miles of Daytona, and his teammate Reg Pridmore became the first AMA Superbike Champion in history. Also for this reason, an R 90 S is today, as it was then, one of the particularly sought-after BMW motorcycles. THE R 12 S TRANSFERS THE SPIRIT OF THE R 90 S INTO 2025 More than the Concept Ninety study presented by BMW Motorrad in May 2013, the new BMW R 12 S takes up the spirit of the R 90 S in its overall concept as well as in many details and transfers it skillfully into the present day. Based on the R 12 nineT, it embodies an authentic and sporty retro bike and utilizes several ingredients that make up a skillful homage to the R 90 S. "The defining design elements of our R 12 S include the handlebar-mounted cockpit fairing with the tinted windshield, the seat with contrast stitching, and the Lava orange metallic paint finish as a nod to the legendary R 90 S Daytona Orange from 1975. The design is perfectly complemented by details such as the red-laid 'S' on the side covers, the red double line, and the brushed and clear-lacquered aluminum surfaces of the tank and seat hump," explains Alexander Buckan, Head of BMW Motorrad Design. LOADED WITH STANDARD FEATURES The claim to a sporty retro bike is underlined by the R 12 S with numerous standard product features such as the Option 719 Classic II wheels with wire spokes and shiny, naturally anodized aluminum rims, as well as other high-quality components. The handlebars and fork tubes are in black, and the components of the Billet packs Shadow and Shadow II set particularly high-quality technical accents. Components of the Billet pack Shadow are the left and right ignition coil covers, the oil filler screw, and the cylinder head covers coated in Avus black metallic matt. The Billet pack Shadow II includes the footrest system including foot brake and gear shift levers, the pillion footrests, the hand brake and clutch levers, the expansion tank covers for the front brake and clutch, as well as the handlebar end mirrors. Further standard features include the Comfort Package, which includes Hill Start Control, Shift Assistant Pro, Heated Grips, and Cruise Control. For even more safety during night rides, the adaptive cornering light Headlight Pro ensures better illumination of the road in corners. CUSTOMISATION OPTIONS The BMW R 12 S is based on the BMW R 12 nineT, and therefore all accessory products such as titanium exhaust systems, soft bags, or the navigation preparation can also be used for this motorcycle. For example, the already expressive dynamism of the lines can be further enhanced with the short rear end, which is available as an Original BMW Motorrad Accessory, and the black license plate holder attached to the swingarm. Additional factory-installed options are also available, such as Tire Pressure Control (RDC), Anti-Theft Alarm System (DWA), Intelligent Emergency Call, Connected Ride Control, and the digital display with micro-TFT display as an alternative to the classic round instruments.

Its 199 kg in running order without fuel represent the lowest value in the category, benefitting handling and manoeuvres from a standstill and at low speed, even when fully loaded. Its lightness, combined with the wide and full-bodied delivery of the variable-valve twin-cylinder, a benchmark electronics package and a careful ergonomic and aerodynamic development, means that the riding pleasure, fuel consumption, performance and handling of the new Multistrada V2 transform every trip into an unforgettable journey. Design The design of the new V2 draws inspiration from the stylistic concepts that have made the history of the Multistrada family: horizontally balanced volumes, with a light and short tail, and a front area characterised by sporty lines, emphasised by the side panels that load the front end. The shoulder surfaces, the front masses and the beak historically distinctive characteristics of the Multistrada have been made more harmonious. Like all Ducatis, the Multistrada V2 also combines design and functionality. The Centro Stile Ducati defined its lines in close collaboration with R&D technicians, to integrate aerodynamic solutions into the design studied to improve thermal comfort and protection from the elements. The windshield, highly protective and adjustable in height, was defined through careful aerodynamic research that also involved the deflectors, perfectly integrated into the front line. For thermal comfort, as on the Multistrada V4, upwash lateral air conveyors have been introduced, integrated into the design of the bike that help direct fresh air to the riders legs. The new headlights and DRL inspired by the latest-generation Panigale and Multistrada V4 help to define a compact and aggressive front view, immediately recognizable. The shorter beak is well integrated into the windshield and creates a more harmonious image. The direction indicators, thin and harmonized in the design of the side panels, have been completely redesigned and repositioned to offer optimal visibility and create a gap between them and the fairing that allows the passage of fresh air towards the rider. The tail is very slim and light, thanks to a shorter rear grab handle, completely redesigned to guarantee functionality and ergonomics. Ergonomics and comfort The ergonomics of the Multistrada V2 have been completely revised with great attention paid to comfort. The rider and passenger seats have been redesigned, and passenger roominess has been improved compared to the previous model in terms of legroom and torso space, thanks to rearward top box and side case attachments. To allow the rider to rest their feet on the ground safely, the new Multistrada V2 has been equipped with a seat that can be adjusted to two positions, with heights of 850 and 830 mm. Furthermore, the Ducati Performance catalogue offers as an accessory a seat raised to 870 mm, and one lowered to 810. On the S version, thanks to the semi-active DSS (Ducati Skyhook Suspension) and the Minimum Preload system, it is possible to lower the seat to 790 mm. New Ducati V2 Engine The new Multistrada V2 is equipped with the new Ducati V2 engine, a 90 V-twin, 890 cc, with IVT variable intake valve timing and distribution with coil spring valve recall. This new engine, extremely compact and lightweight weighing only 54.9 kg makes an important contribution to the reduction of the bike's weight. In this configuration it delivers 115 hp at 10,750 rpm and 92 Nm of torque at 8,250 rpm. Thanks to the variable valve timing, the V2 engine optimises performance, delivery and consumption. The power at high revs is combined with a sustained torque delivery at low and medium revs: more than 70% of the maximum torque is already available at 3,500 rpm, and between 3,500 and 11,000 rpm the value never drops below 75%. This is combined with a more regular combustion at low revs, which provides a very fluid delivery at small throttle openings , and the larger flywheel, which improves riding pleasure especially in touring or traffic thanks to a smoother throttle opening response. Finally, the gear ratios have been specifically designed for the Multistrada, with a shorter first and second gear to improve usability at low speeds and full load acceleration. The gearbox is equipped with the new Ducati Quick Shift 2.0, which offers a more precise pedal feel and faster gear changes. Completely redesigned chassis To improve comfort and riding pleasure on any route, the new Multistrada V2 is equipped with a completely redesigned frame, rear subframe and swingarm, which embrace the same construction philosophy as the Multistrada V4. The frame is an aluminium monocoque that uses the engine as a stressed element, the rear subframe is a steel trellis and the swingarm is cast in aluminium. All this, combined with the new V2 engine, allows the Multistrada to arrive at an extremely low weight: only 199 kg, in running order without fuel, for the V2 version, and 202 kg for the V2 S version equipped with semi-active suspension. Thanks to a complete redesign and the solution of the monocoque frame, Ducati engineers have managed to create a slim bike, with a very narrow fit that allows you to put your feet on the ground more easily. Furthermore, the contact area of the knees and inner thighs with the surfaces of the bike has been improved, increasing riding pleasure and the sense of control at high speeds. Thanks to the new ergonomics, the new Multistrada V2 requires less handlebar effort to lean and guarantees more neutral behaviour when entering and going through curves. The Multistrada V2 is equipped with a Marzocchi fork with 45 mm tubes and a Marzocchi shock absorber with progressive link, both fully adjustable. The Multistrada V2 S boasts semi-active suspension with Ducati Skyhook Suspension electronic control, further improving comfort, safety and performance thanks to new electronic strategies that limit diving during braking (anti-dive) and the tendency to sit during acceleration (anti-squat), ensuring optimal riding precision. In addition, the Minimum Preload function allows the rear suspension to be lowered to a minimum with the simple press of a button, facilitating contact of the feet on the ground especially when fully loaded and with a passenger. As on the new Multistrada V4, the Suspension Modes can be selected independently of the Riding Modes, to choose the preferred suspension calibration while maintaining the electronic control parameters and engine response unchanged. Both versions of the Multistrada V2 are equipped with a 19 front wheel combined with a 17 rear wheel, with Pirelli Scorpion Trail II tyres, and 170 mm of suspension travel, to offer versatility and riding feel. The Brembo braking system features a double 320 mm front disc and a single 265 mm disc, with benchmark performance in every situation. Benchmark electronics package The new Multistrada V2 boasts a complete electronics package, manageable via redesigned handlebar controls and the new 5 TFT colour dashboard, with a completely revamped multilingual interface based on three different Infomodes. The five available Riding Modes (Sport, Touring, Urban, Enduro and Wet) offer the possibility of adapting the Multistrada V2 to any situation, setting the engine power and response to pre-configured and modifiable values, thanks to the four Power Modes with which the engine is equipped. The Riding Modes, of course, set the cornering ABS, Ducati Traction Control (DTC), Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC) and Engine Brake Control (EBC) to pre-defined levels, which can be modified by the rider. The three Infomodes (Road, Road Pro and Rally) allow you to make the most of the dashboard's capabilities, changing the information displayed to offer the rider the best riding experience in every situation: Road Pro, for example, provides the percentage of power and torque used in real time. Finally, the Ducati Multistrada V2 is equipped as standard with Cruise Control, a USB socket integrated into the dashboard, the Ducati Brake Light EVO (which manages emergency flashing in sudden braking) and, in the case of the V2 S, the Ducati Multimedia System, with the possibility of activating the Turn-by-turn navigator accessory. Furthermore, the new Coming Home function keeps the low beams active when the ignition is turned off, to illuminate the area in front of the bike and make home entry easier. Safe everywhere Like all Multistradas, the new V2 is also designed to allow Ducatisti to travel with maximum peace of mind thanks to benchmark maintenance intervals (valve clearance check set every 30,000 km) and the 4EVER Ducati and Roadside Assistance programs. The first offers a warranty valid for 4 years with unlimited mileage*. The Roadside Assistance* program adds roadside assistance, transportation for the rider and passenger, a replacement vehicle and overnight stays in a four-star hotel in the event of problems that may arise during the period of coverage. All this with the peace of mind offered by a network of over 800 official Ducati dealers in over 90 countries around the world. Accessories and availability A wide range of accessories allows you to customise your Multistrada V2 according to the most diverse needs. Plastic cases with a capacity of 60 litres, or aluminium ones with a capacity of 76 litres, are mounted on the bike with floating attachments to improve stability and therefore safety. Steel protections help limit damage in the event of a slide and the centre stand makes maintenance and loading operations on the bike easier. Adventure lovers can fit spoked wheels, which make the Multistrada V2 more versatile, allowing it to continue the journey when the asphalt ends. Finally, those who want to enhance their Multistrada V2 by changing the exhaust sound, can choose from the various solutions offered by Termignoni. The new Multistrada V2 will be available in the standard version, and V2 S, featuring DSS semi-active suspension. The first is offered in the Ducati Red colour, while for the second you can choose between Storm Green and Ducati Red, with the additional possibility of opting for the Travel trim, complete with plastic side cases, centre stand and heated grips. The new Ducati Multistrada V2 will arrive in dealerships in January 2025, also in a 35 kW version for motorcyclists with an A2 license. * Valid in Europe only Tue, 14 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/basic-motorcycle-maintenance-101-at-triumph-west-london BASIC MOTORCYCLE MAINTENANCE 101 ATTRIUMPH WEST LONDON PUBLISHED 08.01.2025 JOIN OUR WORKSHOP EVENT!

The heated grips and the larger windshield increase comfort at low temperatures, and the central stand makes the motorcycle more stable, facilitating access to luggage during stops and maintenance operations on the chain and rear wheel. DesertX Discovery is in fact equipped as standard with 76-litre aluminium cases, which combine functionality and style, allowing you to carry everything you need for limitless adventures* The DesertX is the ideal travel companion even on road routes thanks to a nimble and precise chassis, which ensures easy and intuitive riding. For this reason, the Turn-by-turn navigator, which can be used through the Ducati Link App, guides the rider towards his destination clearly by showing the directions directly on the dashboard. The DesertX is a versatile motorcycle, at ease on mixed alpine routes as well as on dirt tracks, thanks to a chassis based on a steel trellis frame, with long suspension travel, which makes it suitable for any adventure. At the same time, the triple homologation for the tyres allows you to choose between different possibilities: from solutions that favour road driving, to others more oriented towards off-road. The heart of the DesertX is the 937 cc liquid-cooled Testastretta 11 desmodromic distribution engine with 110 hp at 9,250 rpm and maximum torque of 92 Nm at 6,500 rpm, optimized for specific use in the gearbox and electronic equipment. On DesertX, in fact, three Riding modes are dedicated to road use while two are specifically designed for off-road riding. Thanks to a tank with a capacity of over 21 litres, it is possible to travel whilst limiting refuelling stops to a minimum. The DesertX family (which can be customized through the new configurator ), in addition to the new Discovery, also includes the Rally model, dedicated to the sportiest and most daring off-roaders, to those who love rally raids and competitions, developed and tested on fields of racing like the Erzbergrodeo. It is characterized by having the best racing-derived components: specialist and powerful off-road solutions have been adopted on the DesertX Rally. The Ducati DesertX 2025 in standard trim remains available in the Matt Star White Silk livery only. Both versions are also offered in a 35 kW depowered version for A2 license holders. The Bologna-based motorcycle manufacturer also offers the "4Ever Ducati"guarantee*, valid for 4 years with unlimited mileage, guaranteed by the entire dealer network, on all DesertX models.

A pair of matt black slash-cut Akrapovic silencers with carbon fibre end caps combine with an intoxicating induction roar from twin airboxes and throttle bodies, to perfectly complement the Bobber TFCs more aggressive engine map and the exhilarating throttle response in its extra Sport riding mode.

With its characterful triple engine and agile handling, its perfect for riders looking for a bike that adapts to their needs, from adding fun to the city commute to weekend exploring. Triumph Motorcycles has added advanced technology usually reserved for larger capacity segments, including a new Sport rider mode, smartphone connectivity with turn by turn navigation, Cruise Control and the Triumph Shift Assist up and down quickshifter. With Optimised Cornering ABS and traction control also included as standard, the new Tiger Sport 660 provides an even more versatile performance. Its unique 660cc triple engine offers the perfect blend of low down, mid range and top end performance thats become synonymous with Triumph triples, and the Tiger Sport 660 delivers over 90% of the peak torque available throughout the rev range. Showa suspension with remote preload adjustment ensures switching between solo riding and touring fully loaded can be achieved with ease. Nissin brakes and Michelin tyres provide confidence-inspiring control and agility. The Tiger Sports sporty and fun engine character, distinctive design, protective bodywork and comfortable ergonomics, make it the ultimate middleweight all-rounder. This is further enhanced by design details like the integrated pannier mounts, which makes travelling with luggage, easy and seamless, a large 17.2 litre fuel tank helping riders travel further, for longer, and the windscreen that can be adjusted with just one hand and no tools. An A2 restrictor kit is also available as an accessory, which can be fitted by an authorised dealer, making the Tiger Sport 660 perfect for A2 licence holders, with easy de-restriction once a full A licence has been achieved. Triumph Motorcycles Chief Commercial Officer Paul Stroud said: The Tiger Sport 660 delivers a better combination of performance, versatility and fun, than any other middleweight adventure sport bike. Since 2021, this model has won awards for its confidence-inspiring, agile and sporty ride. In fact, our customers have told us that they find this bike so capable, they want to travel longer distances, so we have been looking at how we can make the ride even more comfortable. Thats why weve introduced extra rider-focused technology for 2025. With Optimised Cornering ABS and traction control included as standard, plus Cruise Control and Triumph Shift Assist, this bike offers riders incredibly good value compared to the competition. Coupled with the Tiger Sport 660s low cost of ownership, I believe we have created a very compelling overall package. The new 2025 Triumph Tiger Sport 660 in Roulette Green SPORTY PERFORMANCE With 81 PS at 10,250 RPM and 64 Nm of torque at 6,250 RPM, the Tiger Sport 660s triple engine delivers smooth, responsive, and linear power at every twist of the throttle. The slip and assist clutch further enhances rideability, reducing clutch effort for smoother gear changes and less fatigue, even on longer rides. The addition of the Triumph Shift Assist, enabling fast, seamless gear changes, enhances the sporty riding experience and makes the Tiger Sport 660 even more dynamic. URBAN & TOURING CAPABILITY Designed for long journeys and daily commutes alike, the Tiger Sport 660 features an upright riding position, adjustable windscreen, and a plush seat for both rider and passenger comfort. The ergonomics are further enhanced by integrated pillion grab handles. Built for all day comfort, the Showa 41mm upside-down cartridge forks and monoshock rear suspension with preload adjustment ensures stability, whether riding solo or with a pillion, while its 17.2-litre fuel tank provides plenty of range for longer adventures. Michelin Road 5 tyres provide superior grip in all conditions and Nissin twin 310mm disc brakes enhance confidence and agility. With a wet weight of just 207 kg, a seat height of 835mm and a narrow frame, the Tiger Sport 660 is lightweight and nimble, making it easy to manoeuvre through traffic or on twisty back roads. The LCD display with full-colour TFT on the 2025 Tiger Sport 660 RIDER-FOCUSED TECHNOLOGY The big update for 2025 is the addition of more rider-focused technology, meeting demand from customers for the opportunity to ride further, and have even more fun, on the Tiger Sport 660. As a result, the Tiger Sport 660 now has three riding modes, gaining a new Sport setting in addition to Road and Rain. From instant throttle response for a fast, fun ride or softer power delivery in challenging conditions, these modes adjust the bike's performance to match each riders needs. Cruise Control is now included as standard, making the Tiger Sport 660 even more suitable for relaxed motorway riding, helping riders maintain a steady speed and reducing fatigue over long distances. Optimised Cornering ABS delivers exceptional stopping power exactly when its needed, while Switchable Traction Control and ride by wire system helps riders stay steady in adverse conditions, offering a safer, more controlled ride without sacrificing any of the fun. The Tiger Sport 660 also sports full-LED lighting, from bright headlights and sleek LED taillights that provide focused night visibility, to DRLs that enhance safety in all conditions. Riders also benefit from a large LCD display which incorporates a full-colour TFT screen that is easy to read and accessible at a glance, while the My Triumph Connectivity system is now included as standard, enabling turn-by-turn navigation, call handling, and music control.

The bike can easily be derestricted by an authorised dealer to unlock its full potential, offering a seamless transition to unrestricted riding. Cost of ownership is an important factor for customers within this category, which is why Triumph has ensured the Tiger Sport 660 has the lowest service workshop time in the category, a class-leading 10,000 miles / 16,000 km service interval and a global two-year unlimited mileage warranty, which also covers Genuine Triumph Accessories.

The bike which dominated the gruelling Paris Dakar Rally in the 1990s will forever be remembered as one of the many legendary motorcycles in Yamaha's storied history, and the Tnr 700 honoured that heritage when the path to the Next Horizon was unveiled in 2018. Powered by the acclaimed CP2 engine and delivering genuine go-anywhere adventure riding in a lighter and more accessible package, the Tnr 700 was an immediate success that has transformed the world of adventure motorcycling. Despite increased competition, the Tnr 700 has remained the best-selling bike in its class and now, for 2025, comes a new generation of Tnr 700 set to build on the Tnr legacy. It remains an exciting machine inspired by Yamaha's rally successes but is now even more accessible to a wider range of motorcyclists. Alongside a new standard Tnr 700 comes a lower seat height variant with shorter travel suspension to create a motorcycle which appeals to riders who don't want the tallest riding position while, conversely, the new Tnr 700 Rally offers a true pumped-up off-road style ride and higher specification for the more discerning off-road enthusiast. With a higher specification, bold new rally styling and subtle but important developments to the critically acclaimed CP2 platform, the 2025 Tnr 700 range is a serious evolution which keeps Yamaha at the forefront of this increasingly popular class. And while Yamaha has increased the specification of the Tnr 700, witness the introduction of the YCC-T electronic throttle, riding modes and upgraded suspension, the design team has been careful not to add technology for technology's sake. Electronic aids increase the rider's engagement with the motorcycle, while never becoming overwhelming or unnecessary, while adjustments to meet the rider's personal needs or road conditions are always simple to make and effective in delivery. More than ever, the Tnr 700 is the go anywhere motorcycle which enables riders to travel without limits. Its broad appeal makes it the go-to bike for a wide variety of riders, from daily riders who enjoy the appeal and presence only the iconic Tnr brings, to serious off-road riders looking to take on more challenging terrain. With an A2 licence version available, the Tnr 700 has riders of all ages and experience covered. Where Tnr leads, others are sure to follow in pursuit of the Next Horizon. Latest Yamaha Adventure Design Inspired by Yamaha's famed rally raid bikes past and present, the 2025 Tnr 700 sports an all-new look combined with ergonomics developed to be more effective for both road and off-road riding. The silhouette of the Tnr 700 has become iconic, standing tall and upright at the front end, before tapering to a compact tail unit. It takes on board the lessons gained through decades spent winning rally raids, harmoniously blending functionality, ergonomics and performance to deliver the most engaging ride in all conditions. The frontal design offers both excellent visibility and protection for the rider, thanks in no small part to the large one-piece windscreen, while the minimalist mid-to-rear section contributes to a riding position which gives the rider plenty of space in which to position their body, with special attention paid to riders who want to stand up and redistribute their body weight while riding off-road. Compared to the previous model, the fuel tank has been moved forward, with great consideration taken to balance size with optimal ergonomics, while retaining the classic Tnr design language. The top of the 16 litre tank now sits lower down than the one found on the previous generation model and these changes contribute to a more balanced weight distribution and better all-round handling. The mid-section of the 2025 Tnr 700 has been designed not only to facilitate a balanced visual transition between the front and rear of the bike, but also to provide a comfortable and effective saddle for the rider an area in which they can easily move their body weight around as they hustle off road. The design is uncomplicated, with an emphasis on giving a secure contact patch between the bike and the rider's legs, and to facilitate good air flow in both seated and standing positions. The new one-piece rally inspired seat is also classic Tnr, being long and narrow in design and, compared to the previous two-piece design, provides greater freedom of movement while riding. For all the practical reasons behind the styling, Yamaha's design team have been keen to ensure they created an eye-catching motorcycle which captures the essence of off-road riding after all, it is a Tnr. Viewed head on the Tnr 700 gives the classic 'rally tower' look. The new headlamp design features four individual LED light units stacked in an aluminium structure, in the style of Yamaha's contemporary rally racers, with the 'Y' shaped mount giving a distinctively fresh look. Where many adventure bikes can look bulky, the Tnr 700's new body panels convey a sense of lightness, yet remain tough and ready to handle whatever the rider throws at it. It's a motorcycle which has genuine off-road capabilities and the 21" front wheel is not just there for show. It has been designed to take on any roads, whether paved or not, with plenty of ground clearance and long travel suspension set to soak up even the worst of conditions. New colour-matched handguards not only confirm the Tnr 700's off-road credentials but have the practical benefits of giving the rider protection from the elements and any shrubbery which may be blocking the way. Completing the Tnr's distinctive look are two emotive new colour schemes designed to emphasize the bike's abilities. The standard and lower seat height models come with the choice of a Frozen Titanium, which enhances the rugged nature of the machine, or Yamaha's classic Icon Blue a variation on the classic livery which has graced YZ motocrossers and WR enduro bikes since 1996. Race bred adjustable front suspension Any off-road bike needs top level, long travel suspension design especially for the job, and the new Tnr 700 benefits from race developed front suspension. The new inverted forks are designed to take on even the most hostile terrain, with flex-resistant 43mm tubes and 210mm of front wheel travel (190mm on the low seat height version) contributing to an impressive 240mm of ground clearance (225mm on the low seat height version). The front forks on the Tnr 700 are now fully adjustable. Compression and rebound damping characteristics can be fine-tuned by turning screws at either end of the forks, while 15mm of preload adjustability is a new feature and is easily accessed through the adjuster atop each fork leg. Yamaha's design team have also developed new yokes, with a forged aluminium lower clamp and cast aluminium crown combining to deliver added strength while contributing to a very light and natural feeling motorcycle, with which the rider feels at one. Rally developed rear suspension unit Just as the new Tnr 700's front suspension exceeds expectations of a middleweight adventure bike, so the revised rear arrangement ups the ante with its plush action and easy to access remote adjuster. Designed to offer a smooth and stable ride on road and off the beaten track, the new setup pairs a completely new rear linkage design with a revised rear shock absorber, which offers easy adjustability for preload, compression and rebound damping. Developed as a result of feedback from Yamaha's rally raid programme, the new progressive linkage increases suspension stroke while maintaining the same 200mm wheel travel as the previous Tnr 700 (180mm for the low seat height version). With a fastidious approach to improving suspension performance in the most demanding conditions, without compromising comfort in regular riding, the main body of the sophisticated rear shock absorber is made from aluminium due to its superior heat dissipation. This combines with a separate piggyback reservoir tank, which keeps the oil cool and is pressurized to prevent air bubbles forming when the shock absorber is fully extended. The remote adjuster has been designed to allow for changes to be made quickly and without any tools, while an oversized rubber bump stop provides additional cushion in extreme riding conditions. The result is a rear suspension setup which provides outstanding rider feedback and consistent performance no matter how gruelling the conditions. Premium dashboard and switchgear elevate the riding experience The new Tnr 700 range debuts a premium 6.3" full-colour TFT dashboard with outstanding style and functionality. Vertically stacked in a design inspired by rally raid roadbooks, the screen offers simple smartphone connectivity to unlock a host of features including the seamless integration of phone calls and messages, as well as music and turn-by-turn navigation through the MyRide app. These features can be controlled using the left-hand switchgear, meaning the rider is able to take control without having to stop or even take their hands off the handlebars. To facilitate seamless integration with the users smartphone, the motorcycle comes with a USB-C charging point as standard. The outlet is protected by a waterproof cap and is conveniently situated at the right hand side of the cockpit, ensuring mobile devices remain fully charged on even the longest journeys. The attention to detail doesn't end there. Riders can choose from two distinctive dashboard themes, which present them with information in the way they best prefer. Street theme displays the information in a classic style, with the screen dominated with a digital visualization of an analogue tachometer, while the Explorer theme is more modern and dynamic, designed to be easy to read while riding off-road, which is achieved by positioning the key information front and centre in the rider's view. Whichever theme is selected, the new 6.3" TFT display allows the rider to clearly check road speed, rpm and navigation, while other features include fuel gauge, average fuel consumption, ambient temperature and a gearshift indicator. Complementing the new TFT readout are new switchgear cubes, which offer more functionality than those found on the previous generation Tnr 700 and make scrolling through the many functions easy and intuitive. Ergonomically designed for easy operation, flexible printed circuits are used to allow each switch to handle more functions through the use of a five-direction joystick. Additionally, the turn signals have been upgraded, with new features added to the left hand switchgear: three-flash signaling or continuous indicators with auto-cancelling. Updated CP2 engine with YCC-T Yamaha's critically acclaimed 690cc parallel-twin engine receives an update for the new Tnr 700, most notably the adoption of the YCC-T (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle) which in turn facilitates switchable throttle maps for the first time on the CP2 platform. The CP2's linear power delivery and soulful nature has always been one of the Tnr 700's unique propositions and Yamaha's engineers have worked hard to further improve these strengths while meeting the needs of EU5+ emissions regulations. The ingredients remain the same, with the 270-degree crankshaft continuing to provide the heartbeat of this award-winning powerplant, however the introduction of YCC-T now gives riders the option of two selectable maps with different characteristics, Sport and Explorer, with the latter offering a softer power delivery. Switching modes is easy, simply by pressing a button on the right-hand switchgear, and gives the rider the throttle connection they prefer. Also updated from previous Tnr 700 editions is the air intake duct, which is now shorter and contributing to a fatter torque curve lower in the rev range, a particular benefit when riding off road. A number of other mechanical updates have been introduced, all focused on improving the rider/machine connection. The clutch actuation position has been moved forward (35 clockwise), and a protector cover with a smooth, minimized shape has been added. These updates ensure that the clutch actuation point, and protector cover do not interfere with the rider's leg, whether in a sitting or standing posture, giving more space for the rider to move around. Other refinements include revised gearbox internals for a smoother gear shift. The number of convex dogs and concave dogs in the gears has been increased from five to six between first and third gears, to reduce shocks, while the dog angle has been modified on gears four through to six, reducing lash when coming on and off the throttle. The changes all add up to a more refined and capable motorcycle designed to be even more in tune with its rider. Switchable ABS and TCS for ultimate off-road control Giving the Tnr 700 rider ultimate control in an off-road environment, the traction control and ABS systems may be switched off to hand over manual control on loose surfaces. The TCS has two settings, on and off, and can be deselected via the menu on the TFT dashboard, while a large button at the side of the dash can be used to control the ABS settings. For ABS, Mode 1 is the default and activates the anti-lock system on both wheels, in line with legal requirements for public roads, while Mode 2 deactivates ABS only on the rear. Mode 2 is particularly useful on light gravel tracks, allowing riders to assist their turning by spinning up the rear wheel but having the assurance of ABS on the front. Mode 3 turns off ABS intervention and hands full braking control to the rider, providing expert riders with maximum control on loose surfaces. These modes can be selected via the menu on the TFT dashboard. Additionally, for a faster and more convenient operation, a long press of the dedicated ABS button turns off the anti-lock system and TCS. Tougher than the rest: steel frame gets even stronger Tnr 700 is the toughest middleweight in the market and its backbone remains a double cradle tubular steel frame mated to a gravity-cast aluminium swingarm, developed to offer outstanding strength and rigidity. Constructed from high tensile steel pipe, the strength of the main frame material allows for thinner materials to be used keeping the overall weight of the machine as low as possible. The frame's downpipes work alongside the aluminium engine guard to protect the sump from severe damage in the event of heavy impact, while the integrated subframe facilitates full luggage options from the Genuine Yamaha Accessories range to be fitted. The Tnr 700's seat height remains at 875mm (860mm for the low seat height version) and continues to be accessible to many riders thanks to its narrow stepover. The one-piece rally style seat is new and combines with the latest fuel tank and modified clutch cover to give more space for the rider to move around, allowing them to transition between road and off-road riding with total ease. Ergonomically the riding triangle remains as per the much loved first generation model but comfort is improved thanks to a reshaping of the front section of the saddle. Passenger comfort is also improved, with the switch to a single unit seat helping to create a greater connection between rider and pillion. The 2025 Tnr 700 model features several significant improvements to increase strength and increase durability when ridden hard off-road. The silencer bracket has been upgraded and a patch has been added to the backstay. The mounting points of the accessory luggage carrier have also been strengthened, while the side stand switch has been redesigned and relocated following customer feedback. Another important touchpoint of the Tnr 700 has also been upgraded for the 2025 model with new, larger footrests coming as standard. First seen on the Tnr 700 World Raid, the new footpegs are 10mm wider than those found on the previous model and really help the rider make steering inputs through the footpegs when riding on loose surfaces. Tnr 700 Rally: the toughest lightweight for those who can handle extreme riding While the Tnr 700 remains the go to motorcycle for adventurers looking to live without limits, the Tnr 700 Rally offers an even more mouthwatering proposition for those who challenge themselves to take on more extreme riding. To reflect this, the Tnr 700 Rally takes on an even higher specification to further expand its capability. Paying homage to the iconic Tnr rally bikes of yesteryear, the Tnr 700 Rally instantly shows its colours through its dedicated heritage-inspired livery and the iconic high front mudguard synonymous with rally raid machines. In a nod to the legendary Dakar winning machines of the 1980s, the solid blue bodywork is complemented with gold coloured rims and features the iconic speedblock design used on Yamaha factory racers of the time. Giving more ground clearance and even greater levels of off-road control, the Tnr 700 Rally gains longer travel suspension. Based on Yamaha's hardcore Tnr 700 Extreme, the Rally receives high end, fully-adjustable, KYB front forks. With strengthened tubes and a special coating to reduce stiction, the fork stroke is increased by 20mm over standard, to give a front wheel travel of 230mm. A similar stroke increase on the rear shock absorber contributes to a ground clearance of 255mm, giving the Tnr 700 Rally the ability to tackle dunes and traverse rivers when the road gives way to nature. Offering additional protection from tree stumps and rocky terrain, the Tnr 700 Rally also boasts a tough 4mm aluminium sump guard, while the one-piece rally seat is also unique to the Rally variant. The seat delivers a slightly different ergonomic package over the standard model, with a higher and more upright riding position to make it easier for the rider to move around on the bike. Thicker than the standard saddle and with a plush dual-material finish with an embossed Rally logo, the Tnr 700 Rally offers extra comfort when seated and has a commanding seat height of 910mm. Further attention to the Tnr 700 Rally's role as an extremely capable off-roader can be seen in the lightweight titanium footrests. Just like the items seen on dedicated competition machines, the pegs are 228g lighter than standard and have a larger contact area. They are heavily serrated to reduce pressure on the rider's boots, increasing grip and giving greater controllability for riders who like to influence steering through the footpegs. The Tnr 700 Rally also features an additional dashboard theme called Raid, a roadbook inspired layout which strips out much of the information valued on a road ride and prioritises trip-related information which is most useful when riding in the wilderness. Confirming the bike's rally raid credentials, the Tnr Yamaha Rally Team riders Pol Tarrs and Alessandro Botturi will compete in major rally raid events utilizing GYTR kitted versions of the Tnr 700 Rally. 2025 Yamaha Tnr 700 New Technical Highlights New bodywork and headlight in striking Yamaha Adventure design High quality, fully-adjustable suspension front and rear New 6.3" full colour TFT screen with smartphone connectivity YCC-T electronic throttle with dual riding modes Switchable ABS and TCS via a dedicated button Latest version 690cc, two-cylinder, four-valve, DOHC, liquid-cooled, EU5+ CP2 engine New switchgear and turn signals New one-piece rally-style seat Low variant available with 15mm lower seat height New clutch cover to reduce leg interference Larger footrests Handguards matching body colour Updated side stand switch 2025 Yamaha Tnr 700 Rally New Technical Highlights (in addition to standard version) Taller KYB suspension front and rear Heritage livery paying homage to classic Tnr models Off-road style high front fender Heavy duty skid plate constructed from 4mm aluminium Lightweight titanium footrests Additional Raid TFT Theme Dedicated rally seat Mon, 11 Nov 2024 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/new-yamaha-nmax-125-and-nmax-125-tech-max Yamaha's entry-level Sport Scooters become a part of the MAX family.

MORE STORIES Wed, 30 Oct 2024 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/first-looknew-2025-triumph-modern-classic-icons FIRST LOOK: NEW 2025 TRIUMPH MODERN CLASSIC ICONS PUBLISHED 29.10.2024 Triumph Motorcycles has announced a new collection of Modern Classic Icon Editions for 2025, featuring the revival of a Triumph logo which dates back to 1907. The logo has not been seen on an official Triumph tank for more than 100 years and will be limited to just seven distinctive and iconic Modern Classics, uniting legacy with contemporary classic style and performance. With premium detailing, and unmistakable character, the new classy, custom-inspired Triumph models pay homage to the brands rich history. There are seven models available, each with a sophisticated Sapphire Black and Aluminum Silver colour combination, perfectly complementing their authentic and original design. Meticulously crafted to a flawless finish, each one features hand-painted coach-lining, and exclusive graphics showcasing the Edwardian gold script logo. The distinctive designs capture the essence of the original models while adding new character with signature colour schemes, from the laid-back elegance of the Bonneville T100 and T120, to the rugged attitude of the Scrambler 900, 1200 X and 1200 XE, to the custom-vibe of the Bobber and Speedmaster. Triumph Motorcycles Chief Commercial Officer Paul Stroud said: The Triumph Modern Classics have an enduring reputation for original style, high quality, premium finish and modern performance. It is this authenticity, coupled with the heritage and passion encapsulated in the 1907 logo, that will have broad appeal with both younger and older riders. With striking new paint schemes, bespoke graphics, and custom logos, the Icon Editions perfectly blend heritage, style and contemporary capability, perfect for those riders who appreciate classic style, but value modern performance. THE TRIUMPH ICON The icon of Triumph Motorcycles, and considered iconic by many riders, the Triumph logo is respected and loved across the globe. The trademarked logo began as a shield in 1902; a heraldic crest design that incorporated the company name, Triumph Cycle Co. Ltd and the city of manufacture, Coventry. This emblem was replaced in 1907 with a new script logo, the Triumph wordmark. While it was used for just seven years, this version of the Triumph logo has endured in countless custom designs, used on collectables, and fans have even chosen this logo for tattoos. The addition of Motors to the logo in 1915, moved the design forwards, before Triumph reverted to the crest, in colour, during the 1920s. A brief change in 1932 introduce the oval globe logo, which was superseded in 1934 by a return to the wordmark, using an updated script and capital letters. Updated again in 1936 with a bolder font and keyline, this logo was carried forward for more than 50 years. In 1990, the blue version was a subtle evolution of the brand, refreshed again in 2005, removing the keyline. In 2013, the modern logo first appeared, a contemporary black styling of the wordmark, and the additional modern triangle logo. It is the memorable script logo from 1907 that has been revived for 2025, to create the graphics for the Icon Editions. EXPLORE THE COLLECTION Built with precision and attention to detail, combining unique design with top-tier quality and engineering, the Icon Editions each feature a different two tone colour split of Sapphire Black and Aluminium Silver, with side panels that are beautifully finished to match the fuel tanks, creating a striking contrast that makes each model stand out from the crowd. Every elegant curve and sculpted detail that gives each of the Modern Classics their own unique silhouettes, are beautifully highlighted and refined using hand painted coach-lining which traces the colour split lines, picked out in black or gold. The addition of the Triumph script logo in gold, and exclusive Icon Edition model graphics, on the tanks and side panels, further enhances the presence of each bike.

As the only triple engine in the class, the Trident 660 delivers thrilling, exploitable performance. Its agile, confidence-inspiring handling and updated retro-modern styling are now paired with best-in-class rider-focused technology. Underpinned by Triumphs renowned premium build quality and component specification, the Trident 660 now offers riders an even more compelling package and remarkably low cost of ownership. In response to customer demand, the Trident 660 now features a host of new equipment that is unprecedented in this class. Optimised Cornering ABS and Traction Control, Triumph Shift Assist and cruise control are all fitted as standard. The integrated TFT display and MyTriumph Bluetooth Connectivity system give riders turn-by-turn navigation, calls, and music control, and there are three rider modes, including a new Sport mode. Triumphs Chief Commercial Officer Paul Stroud said: We first launched the Trident in 2020 with a unique combination of exhilarating triple performance and character, confidence-inspiring handling and bold British styling. With its unrivalled overall cost of ownership on top, it proved popular with riders of all ages and experience levels in markets across the world, and since its launch, the Trident has won several major industry awards. The addition of this technology sets the bar for the category yet again. Building on the popularity of the bright, bold colour scheme of our special edition, the Trident Triple Tribute, we are introducing striking new colour schemes in Cosmic Yellow, Cobalt Blue, and Diablo Red, as well as Jet Black. But the most important factor for our customers, of course, is that the Trident 660 makes every ride seriously fun. The new 2025 Triumph Trident 660 in Cosmic Yellow & Sapphire Black TRIPLE ADVANTAGE The Tridents exhilarating performance is delivered by a flexible three-cylinder engine, which combines low-down torque with a strong midrange and an exciting top-end rush. More than 90% of peak torque is delivered from 3,600rpm to 9,750rpm. Compared to a twin or four-cylinder engine, this gives the rider the best of both worlds by combining the low-down pull and strong midrange of a twin with the high-revving top-end power of a four, as well as the glorious three-cylinder soundtrack.

The new touring enduro takes what the R 1250 GS did well and kicks it up a notch with an impressive amount of optional extras and parts available (it's a big list). If you're looking for a bike that can do it all, it's this one. And guess what? The R 1300 GS is now available with a brand-new feature from BMW: the optional Automated Shift Assistant (ASA) for automatic transmission. The system keeps the familiar left-foot shift lever but says goodbye to the clutch lever. With the ASA, you can enjoy a fully automatic ride or a switch to a "manual" mode with the shift lever. Along with four ride modes - Rain, Road, Enduro, and Eco mode - the R 1300 GS with ASA allows you to enjoy the ride, take in your surroundings, and let the bike do the rest. Feeling curious about the new automated shift assistant? Book your demo at LIND Motorrad Welwyn Garden City below and experience it yourself. The team at BMW Motorrad Welwyn Garden City recently got their hands on an R 1300 GS with ASA, and they've been having a blast trying it out. The whole team couldn't be more impressed with the experience, and Matthew, Head of Business, couldn't wait to share his first thoughts: "Trying out the ASA for the first time was awesome. I thoroughly enjoyed the automatic gearbox. The changes up and down the gears felt incredibly smooth, and even under hard riding, it was super responsive. The ABS and gear changes feel seamless when coming to a stop too, even when testing slightly harder braking. The ASA suits the R 1300 GS perfectly and even better is that while fully automaticif you need to move up or down, you can still flick the gears yourselfeasy as pie. There are no buttons, no messing about, it's as easy as that. You just go!" Click the link below to test the ASA on the R 1300 GS yourself and see if you agree with Matthew's opinion.

"There was a moment The Mile idea started and its the same story that has been repeated by a million motorcyclists over the last 100 years and Im certain it will continue to happen for the next 100 years, you suddenly find yourself on a deserted road, or in a deserted field with a motorcycle and the thought pops into your head, I wonder how fast I can go?. Waiting at the lights with a friend beside you, a shared glance, the light goes green, the flag drops, the gate opens, before your conscious brain has a chance to rationalise the situation, or make a plan, the throttle is open, the sparks are flying, the noise is increasing and youre thrust forward, into the drag race, into the future." - Malle London I never made it to the first Malle Mile, only 40 something people did, but when I saw the pictures it looked epic, and I had to make sure I went to the 2nd one. It was a crazy, eclectic mix of motorcycle enthusiasts that could all hang out and ride together, at, I think it was Kevington Hall at the time. A chance to blast around on bikes in a wild but strangely controlled manner. A kinda controlled motorcycle race festival with great sportsmanship. We spent a few years doing it there. I suppose when I think about it, it was where Stockwell Racing started, or at least the idea of it, as it was the first time I met my now great friend, Jake Young. I was pitched against him and got my arse kicked on the race track. Back then there was a broad spectrum of different motorcycles, old and new, with, you know, rat bikes, classic and vintage stuff. Fast forward a few years and people are now starting their year building bikes specifically for The Mile with new models, most converted with a Scrambler feel or even restoring old Scramblers; classic, vintage models to ride at the event. It was the first place I properly raced a Harley-Davidson too. With the Stockwell Racing Sportster Flat Track bikes having a full season under our belts in the National Championship we thought we'd enter them in the 2019 Malle Mile. Swapped out the Flat Track tires for 19" knobblies and installed a front brake (Flat Track bikes don't have front brakes). Those bikes have since become iconic for Malle fans and we've achieved many race wins on them over the years. It's all come together for a proud moment seeing a 20-foot advertisement at this years Malle, with our race bike in action front and centre. This year was the 10th anniversary of The Mile. My 9th and first without racing. The event isnow held at Grimsthorpe Castle, near Bourne, Lincolnshire, the hometown of our very own, Sam James of Triumph London. Sam has been with us at Triumph London for 5 years now and has become a senior and respected member of the team, but he hasnt always been 'on the tools'. Sam grew up in the little town of Bourne, just a stone's throw from the very grand Grimsthorpe Castle. At the age of 17, he spent two years working in the Tea Rooms of the Castle, serving drinks and sandwiches and probably even the odd Ploughman's to the flocks of visitors each day. A bit of a family tradition it would seem. His Grandfather worked there as an Engineer for 40+ years. His Gran worked in the kitchen. His Mum and two Aunties have all worked there as Tour Guides. They are all still residents of the surrounding area. Sebastian Miller, Heir to the Grimsthorpe Estate and current resident, called us at Triumph London and requested to have his very own custom Bonneville T120 built and that it be delivered to him during the Malle Mile, along with being raced and entered into the 'Art of Custom' exhibition. Our custom team all felt it would be a very proud moment, given his history with the castle, for Sam to lead the project and build the bike for Sebastian. For the build we wanted to honour the Triumph's of the 60s and 70s, a bike that you might see Bud Ekins ride in a Hare & Hound scramble race while maintaining all the modern benefits of a T120. We opted for a shortened subframe and saddle, custom madeflat track inspired handlebars, polished aluminium classic scrambler mudguards, a one-off shotgun exhaust system from Hitchcox Motorcycles, and knobbly tyres to name a few. More to come from Hitchcox & Stockwell Design very soon. Paired with myself as Sam's assistant, the build began. Simple, classy, and classic was the brief and a deadline of the 18th July was decided so we could hand the bike over to Sebastian at the event. Fast forward a few weeks later at Grimsthorpe, to Sam rolling the finished bike out of the van at the Malle Mile. A mix of nervousness and excitement. What Sam didnt know was that we'd entered him and the custom built T120 into the races at Malle (with Sebastian's consent of course). He, as expected, took it in his stride. Saturday afternoon 100 custom built motorcycles and race bikes were entered into the Art of Custom exhibition, displayed in front of the castle for a panel of judges to cast their eyes over and choose who they would award, right before the sprint race would take place from the castle gates. The jury featured DeBolex Customs, Revival Cycles of the USA, Ziggy Moto, Stockwell Design & Goblin Works, who had the task of making or breaking hearts. The Malle Mile Sprint Race would soon take place from the castle gates. Each custom entry and rider was ready to leave the gates of the Castle head to head against a rival rider and sprint away from the start line in knockout heats. Sam coolly and calmly, yet quite likely a bag of nerves, took an impressive victory in his first two heats. Can you imagine the grin on his face when crossing the finish line! Later that evening the Malle hosts and founders, Robert and Jonny would join the panel of judges on stage to announce the winners of the award for each category. As each award is given out, to Sam's surprise "Sam James of Triumph London" is called out for the award of Best Custom for use on the Great Malle Rally. What a proud moment for a guy that grew up a stone's throw away from the castle and used to walk his dogs across the lawns of the venue as a child, to now be on stage collecting an award for a bike he has built to Sebastian Miller, heir to the castle. With Sebastian, his family, Sam's colleagues, and the thousands who entered Malle watching in delight, it was a touching moment to witness a huge achievement for both Sam and Triumph London, in an extremely proud day for the local lad. The hosts, Robert and Jonny, who had been riding together for years, started a successful luggage company from an idea in a bar at 2 am, then decided they wanted to create an event to help promote their brand, and it'sgot better every year since. The Malle Mile is an annual event hosted alongside Rally and Race events all around the world, from the UK to the Arctic and more, all while supporting charities. It allows people like us to go and experience amazing days out and make so many memories through ridiculously fun gatherings that end up being the moto party of the year. It's shocking how much everyone gets on while thrashing bikes around all day. It's the most wild, yet somehow, most controlled bike event I've ever been to. Honestly, it's my favourite motorcycle event in the world. I've attended, promoted & worked countless events across different countries and continents, and for entertainment, riding, parties, racing, music, everything, along with getting to enjoy it in such an awesome place, I mean in castle grounds, it's stunning. You can only admire what Robert, Jonny, and the team at Malle London have managed to do with it, and it makes me happy knowing it's only getting bigger and bigger each year.

Designed and built in-house at Watford Harley-Davidson by Matthew Alder and Charlie Stockwell, the two cruisers have been designed as a pair, painted, and customised to match each others personalities. Both bikes feature DynoJet Power Vision Stage I tuning, a H-D Heavy Breather Intake, and a beautifully curved Vance & Hines Big Radius 2-into-2 exhaust system which looks as gallant as it sounds. This doesnt subtract from comfortability either. With unmatched quality from Legend Air Suspension, the bikes ride like a dream on any bump, crack, or rut in the road too. From the Thunderbike halls in Hamminkeln, Germany, Stockwell selected custom front and rear fenders for both models along with a solo saddle, and side mount license plate, matching the subtle design with Mini LED front turn signals and multi-function rear lights. With forthright, bobber style, the Breakout features custom Thunderbike risers and blacked-out handlebars, while the Fat Boy bears imposing 16 ape hangers and RSD risers. The ends of both bars are fitted with bold PM Merc grips. THE DESIGN Stockwell Design and Image Design Custom have worked together for over 12 years collaborating on over 200 custom Harley-Davidson motorcycles for customers worldwide. Together they have designed and painted the Midnight Breakout and Fat Boy in a sinister Black & Gold theme thats been carried across our Midnight Limited Edition Series. Black paint wraps the engine covers, shifter, rear brake lever, and brake discs, with the front end and wheels of the Fat Boy being completely blacked out too. The lifter block covers, and lower rockers stand out on the engine, matching the distinct gold of the calipers and classy 114 and 117 debossed into the derby covers. The finishing touch is a striking lightning bolt placed upon the kill switch, a symbol of the Midnight identity.

MORE STORIES Fri, 12 Jul 2024 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/the-new-bmw-r-1300-gs-adventure THE NEW BMW R 1300 GS ADVENTURE. PUBLISHED 05.07.2024 The new BMW R 1300 GS Adventure: When it comes to motorcycle adventure and long-distance touring, this is the rock in the surf. An almost completely newly designed model with enhanced adventure expertise across the board. Crossing the Sahara in searing heat, climbing the Himalayas or exploring the Amazon rainforests - for more than two decades the big BMW GS Adventure with flat twin boxer engine has been synonymous with such long-distance motorcycle journeys with a passenger and lots of luggage. To ensure that this remains the case in the future, and to provide adventurous motorcyclists with even more adventure expertise, BMW Motorrad has almost completely redesigned the engine, chassis, bodywork, design and storage concept of the new R 1300 GS Adventure compared to the previous model, taking the cornerstones of the BMW GS Adventure to a new level. The legendary twin-cylinder boxer engine is once again at the heart of the new R 1300 GS Adventure. The new design, first introduced on the R 1300 GS, is much more compact than its predecessor thanks to a transmission located under the engine and a new arrangement of the camshaft drive. It generates 107 kW (145 hp) from 1,300 cc at 7,750 rpm. Maximum torque is 149 Nm at 6,500 rpm. This makes it by far the most powerful BMW boxer engine ever to be produced in series. At the center of the new suspension is the sheet metal shell main frame made of steel, which in addition to being significantly optimised in terms of installation space also offers higher levels of stiffness than the predecessor model. In place of the previous tubular steel construction, the new R 1300 GS Adventure now has an aluminium lattice tube rear frame made of aluminium tubes and forged parts. The EVO Telelever front wheel guide with flex element and the revised EVO Paralever rear wheel guide also provide even greater steering precision and riding stability. New electronic Dynamic Suspension Adjustment (DSA) as standard equipment ex works, with dynamic adaptation of the damping and spring rate, and also load compensation. The previous Dynamic ESA Next Generation electronic suspension itself offered a high level of ride safety and riding fun on a wide variety of terrains with its dynamic adjustment of the damping and adjustable spring basis at the rear. The new electronic Dynamic Suspension Adjustment (DSA) now goes one step further, combining the dynamic adjustment of the front and rear damping with a corresponding adjustment of the spring rate (spring stiffness) - depending on the selected riding mode, riding condition, and manoeuvres. The automatic adjustment of the spring basis ensures load compensation. This makes for an even more thrilling riding experience on all surfaces. Whether solo, with passenger, or with bulky luggage - DSA ensures an even higher level of ride safety, performance, and comfort. Adaptive vehicle height control and adaptive vehicle height control comfort with vehicle lowering as optional equipment ex works. The new adaptive vehicle height control and vehicle height control comfort are available ex works as optional extras for the chassis of the new R 1300 GS Adventure. With adaptive vehicle height control, the new R 1300 GS offers fully automatic adjustment of the vehicle height to suit the operating conditions, ensuring maximum comfort without having to compromise on riding dynamics and lean angle freedom. The vehicle height is lowered by 30 mm when stationary and at low speeds. The new R 1300 GS Adventure can also be fitted with the optional adaptive vehicle height control comfort system for smaller riders, or for particularly good accessibility and even easier handling. It has all the features and functions of the vehicle height control, and a standard height that is 20mm lower. Four riding modes now standard. Enduro riding mode for an enhanced off-road riding experience. Even in the standard version, the new R 1300 GS Adventure now has four rather than three riding modes to suit individual rider preferences. The Rain and Road riding modes allow riding characteristics to be adapted to most road conditions. With the Eco riding mode it is possible to achieve the maximum range on a single tank of fuel, while the additional riding mode Enduro enables an enhanced riding experience off the beaten track with a specific set-up for off-road use. Four riding modes now standard. Enduro riding mode for an enhanced off-road riding experience. Even in the standard version, the new R 1300 GS Adventure now has four rather than three riding modes to suit individual rider preferences.

With the Eco riding mode it is possible to achieve the maximum range on a single tank of fuel, while the additional riding mode Enduro enables an enhanced riding experience off the beaten track with a specific set-up for off-road use. Automated Shift Assistant (ASA) for fully automatic clutch actuation with manual or automated shifting for even more riding enjoyment as optional ex-works equipment. With the new Automated Shift Assistant (ASA), BMW Motorrad offers an innovative technical solution to make motorcycling easier and more comfortable. True to the motto "Simplify your ride", the riding experience is further enhanced by the automation of the clutch and gear shift, without sacrificing the emotionally important dynamics of the gear change. The Automated Shift Assistant (ASA) will also be available as an option on the BMW R 1300 GS from model year 2025. Full LED headlights in new matrix design and auxiliary headlights as standard. State-of-the-art LED light units all round with turn indicators integrated into the hand protectors. BMW Motorrad is regarded as the pioneer par excellence when it comes to motorcycling safety and related innovations. Accordingly, the new R 1300 GS Adventurer offers a new, very small and attractive full LED headlamp with a novel, distinctive light icon as standard. The light unit consists of one LED unit for low and high beam along with four additional LED units for the daytime running light and the side light. The new R 1300 GS Adventure also features two extra-flat auxiliary headlamps with LED technology that blend harmoniously and safely into the bodywork. This combination illuminates the road with unprecedented clarity, thereby ensuring even better perception in traffic. State-of-the-art LED light units with newly designed LED turn indicators integrated in the hand protectors at the front, function-integrated at the rear round off the lighting concept of the new R 1300 GS. Riding Assistant with Active Cruise Control (ACC), Front Collision Warning (FCW), Lane Change Warning and the new Rear End Collision Warning (RECW) for safe and convenient motorcycling as optional equipment ex works. The new R 1300 GS Adventure is already equipped with Dynamic Cruise Control (DCC) with braking function as standard. The Riding Assistant offers many more functions as an optional extra ex works. It consists of the components Active Cruise Control (ACC), Front Collision Warning (FCW), Lane Change Warning and the new Rear End Collision Warning (RECW). The new Rear End Collision Warning (RECW) system signals an impending rear end collision to following traffic by flashing the hazard warning lights with a higher frequency. The Rear End Collision Warning (RECW) system will also be available on the BMW R 1300 GS presented last year from model year 2025. New aluminium top case and new aluminium cases with integrated magnetic couplings as electrical interfaces for USB charging sockets and lighting as well as an optional volume extension are available as optional equipment ex works. A robust 37-liter aluminium top case and a top case holder with vibration-decoupled top case plate, electrical interface for lighting and USB charging socket as well as integrated passenger grab handles are available as optional accessories for the new R 1300 GS Adventure. The load capacity is up to 8 kg. The new aluminium cases, each with a load capacity of up to 10 kg, are also ideal for transporting luggage easily and safely. The total capacity is over 73 liters (37 liters left, 36.5 liters right). They are simply, quickly and securely attached to the innovative case holders made of forged aluminium. The magnetic coupling integrated into the left-hand case holder acts as the electrical interface for the USB charging socket in the left-hand case. The optional 10-liter volume extensions per case provide even more storage space. Made from high quality aluminium, they are quick and easy to fit. 30-liter aluminium fuel tank with clever mounting options and rubberised storage area. Effective wind and weather protection with windshield and hand protectors with hand protector extensions. The new R 1300 GS Adventure comes with a completely new design that sets it even more apart from its sister model, the R 1300 GS. A key component of the outer skin in the central bodywork area of the new R 1300 GS Adventure is the 30-liter sheet-aluminium fuel tank, which is largely uncovered. It was particularly important to BMW Motorrad's development engineers that the tank, with its large outer skin, also does justice to its additional function as a luggage carrier in a special way. That's why three fastening elements have been screwed onto the upper tank panelling for easy and simple refuelling and quick access to the smartphone charging compartment. This clever solution offers individual fastening eyelets for items of luggage and at the same time provides an articulated mount with snap lock for the 12-liter tank bag with waterproof inner bag and outer bags, which is available as an accessory. The sheer width of the tank inspires confidence and provides effective frontal weather protection. The large windshield, combined with the two large transparent wind deflectors, also provides effective protection from the wind and weather, making for a uniquely quiet and comfortable ride, even on long journeys. Rubberised tank trays to the left and right of the upper tank covers are also standard. They provide non-slip, secure storage for utensils during stops. The new R 1300 GS Adventure: The very highest level of touring and off-road expertise in an attractive basic variant along with the variants Triple Black, GS Trophy and Option 719 Karakorum. Even in its basic version, the new R 1300 GS Adventure leaves no doubt about its purpose. Finished in solid Racing Red, it has an athletic, well-trained look that invites you to embark on dedicated motorcycling adventures. The silver tank, black and red seats, black handlebars, black rims and red hand protector extensions provide a striking contrast. In the Triple Black model variant, the new R 1300 GS Adventure shows its elegant face. Accents in perfectly coordinated shades of black and the aluminium fuel tank finished in high-quality Tinted Clear Coat are the hallmarks of this exceptional character. Black elements such as the standard engine protection bar with silver inserts, handlebars and wheel rims are combined with grey hand protector extensions, large aluminium radiator cowls and black/grey heated seats for the traditional Triple Black colour scheme. A luggage rack and high windshield with large wind deflectors complete the Triple Black look. The GS Trophy model features a sporty colour scheme. Racing Blue metallic paintwork is complemented by eye-catching solid Light White and solid Racing Red stripes. Textured powder-coated parts in Avus Black matt metallic create exciting contrasts with the aluminium parts. Red and black seats and red hand protector extensions combine with the stainless steel engine protection bar and black cross-spoke wheels to create an attractive colour scheme. Black grilles in front of the radiators and auxiliary headlamps provide effective stone guard protection. The smaller sport windshield and sport grab handles for the passenger further emphasise the GS Trophy's sporty character. Large radiator cowls with lashing eyes and aluminium fuel tank shelves also provide robust docking points. Option 719 Karakorum presents the R 1300 GS Adventure in the exclusive colour Aurelius Green matt metallic. Gold-coloured lines and the Shadow milled parts package complete the high-quality appearance, as does the "Opt. 719" badge on the tank cover. Golden anodised components such as the wheel rims and handlebars are particularly eye-catching. The standard engine protection bar is painted black and the hand protector extensions are grey. In addition to the small aluminium radiator cowls and protective grille on the auxiliary headlamps, there are two black/grey heated comfort seats, a luggage rack and a small sport windshield.

Mon, 24 Jun 2024 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/what-makes-harley-davidson-cvotouring-so-special WHAT MAKES HARLEY-DAVIDSON CVO TOURINGSO SPECIAL? PUBLISHED 21.06.2024 The pinnacle of Harley-Davidson Touring. For 25 years, Custom Vehicle Operation (CVO) models have represented the pinnacle of Harley-Davidson style and design. They are manufactured in limited numbers and draw upon the expertise and craftsmanship of the brand. Each CVO model is equipped with show-stopping finishes, advanced features, exclusive components, and attention to detail that borders on the obsessive. Last year, during their 120-year celebrations, Harley-Davidson released new CVO Street Glide and CVORoad Glide models, completely modernising the touring platform from top to bottom, with both featuring a new VVT 121 engine code-named Helix. The new models were introduced as two of the most refined touring motorcycles ever seen with outstanding comfort, electronics as modern as you can get on a motorcycle, and the incredibly engaging, new liquid-cooled 1977cc engine. If that hasn't already answered the question of, "What makes Harley-Davidson CVO touring so special?", let's deep-dive further into every piece of innovation and detail and answer that for you. Watch our 2023 CVO Street Glide review with Cam and Jon from Newmarket Harley-Davidson on YouTube. 1. Ultimate touring performance. The Milwaukee-Eight VVT 121 V-Twin Engine is the highest displacement powertrain ever to be factory-installed on a Harley-Davidson Touring motorcycle. Featuring liquid-cooled cylinder heads, variable valve timing (VVT), and a new intake tract. The increased displacement produces more power and torque than the previous Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine, putting out 115HP at 5,020 rpm and 183 Nm torque at 3,500 rpm, while the VVT broadens the overall powerband and improves fuel economy. It's a beast! The new 2023 and 24 models are both lighter than their 2022 counterparts, with the CVO Street Glide weighing 14kg less and the CVO Road Glide weighing 16kg less. This has enhanced all aspects of the performance, including acceleration and braking. Those brakes being dual front discs with radially mounted four-piston Brembo calipers in the front and single four-piston Brembo calipers in the rear, producing fantastic braking performance with a responsive feel. For the exhaust, Harley developed 114.3 mm-wide mufflers with a premium finish on their high-flow exhaust system to compliment the engine performance with epic style and sound. On both models, comfort has been a focus of improvement, using inverted 47 mm SHOWA forks and premium shocks with 76.2 mm of suspension travel, optimising the handling performance and rider comfort. The new windshield and fairings reduce wind buffeting and rider fatigue tested with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and wind tunnel analysis. The adjustable air vanes also tune air flow to enhance comfort even further for the ultimate riding experience. 2. Modernised and improved designfrom front to back. It isn't just performance, comfort, and ergonomics that have improved. The design enhancements look stunning and have evolved the platform for the 2024 standard Street Glide and Road Glide models in perfect fashion. The iconic fairings, batwing on the Street Glide and sharknose on the Road Glide, have both been modernised with sculpted silhouettes, fully integrated LED lighting, and new windshield designs. The integrated LED lighting package gives improved visibility and an instantly recognisable look on the road, day or night, for a road presence like no other. To match the striking headlights, both models have been produced in Dark Platinum with Bright Smoked Satin pinstriping or two-tone Whiskey Neat and Raven Metallic with airbrushed details and pinstriping. Each is complemented with either gloss black andchrome or scorched chrome accents for a total package that accentuates the new body lines and highlights the CVO ethos of obsessive attention to detail. Every surface of the CVO Street Glide and Road Glide has been reimagined and refined, creating a seamless visual flow from the tip of the front fender to the tail of the saddlebags. Speaking of which, the saddlebags have an increased overall luggage capacity and complete the aggressive stance of the two models along with 483 mm front and 457 mm rear, Combo Cast Laced wheels equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). 3. Technological innovation. Finally, we come to technology. The new rider safety enhancements include the latest chassis control, electronic brake control, and powertrain technology to enhance rider confidence in any type of ride condition. This gives maximised traction during acceleration, deceleration, and braking. This is paired with new Ride Modes which can be easily selected to provide more control and confidence during various riding conditions by electronically adjusting performance characteristics and the level of safety intervention. With three standard and two customisable ride modes, you can create a unique combination of power delivery, engine braking, Cornering Antilock Braking System (C-ABS), and Cornering Traction Control (C-TCS) settings. Of course, what would luxury beasts like these be without a top-end sound system and smart infotainment? The brand-new Skyline OS customisable in-dash experience features navigation, three unique display options, and an all-new suite of connected infotainment options. This is contained within a crystal-clear, 312mm touch-screen colour TFT display which puts navigation and infotainment at your fingertips. For audio, your ears are graced by four-channel, 500-watt RMS amplifiers built into the fairing and saddlebag speakers using the epic Rockford Fosgate Stage II premium audio system. It really is the full package... Watch 2024 CVO Street Glide owner, James, talk about what makes his bike so specialon YouTube. Can you get your hands on one? Overall the "Helix" CVO models are outstanding motorcycles that truly are the pinnacle of motorcycle Touring. In 2024 Harley-Davidson released new versions of the CVO Street Glide and CVO Road Glide with exclusive paint and finishes to celebrate 25 years of CVO, available in colour-shifting Copperhead with Warm-Shift pinstripes or Legendary Orange with Raven Metallic and Atlas Silver brushed sections. Each option is finished with colour-matched parts and accessories, CVO graphics, and an engraved CVO 25th Anniversary console insert. While these 2023 and 2024 CVO models are extremely limited and produced in small numbers, we're fortunate to have a selection of these models available around our LIND Harley-Davidson stores right now.

MORE STORIES Fri, 21 Jun 2024 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/baja-x-series-by-lind-x-stockwell-design BAJA X SERIES BYLIND XSTOCKWELL DESIGN PUBLISHED 13.06.2024 CUSTOM 80'S STYLE BAJA RACERS FOR THE MODERN ERA. Our Baja X Series, now displayed and for sale in our Triumph London dealership, was created by our in-house custom bike designer Charlie Stockwell of Stockwell Design, and the team at Triumph London. This was an idea dreamt up by Stockwell and Sam James of Triumph London months ago while watching re-runs of old motorcycle rally footage including that of the Baja 1000 Rally in Southern California and Mexico. The tone was set and the pair decided to build the three bikes andhave them ready for reveal at the annual Bike Shed Moto Show 2024. We wanted an 80s inspired enduro bike that could havequite easily been raced at the iconic Baja 1000, a race that started way back in 1967 and had featured Steve McQueen, Bud Ekins, Paul Newman, and many other iconic names that have a strong link with the Triumph brand. Think of On Any Sunday and that will set the tone for the type of off-road inspired racer that we wanted to create. The race is nuts! Its a non-stop desert race (well you gotta stop for fuel). You have various types of vehicles competing on the same course. Motorcycles, cars, trucks, and buggies. Ernie Vigil took on the gruelling challenge of the Baja 1000 on board a fairly stock Triumph Scrambler in 2019. With a few mods such as sand tyres, bars, saddle, etc. Weve kept the spec of our custom builds similar to that." - Charlie Stockwell Photography from @sezudo_photography THE FEATURES The main features include aStockwell Design Twin Headlamp conversion on both the Baja XL(Scrambler 1200 XE) and the Baja X(Scrambler 1200 X) with custom fabricated mounts and the assembly of Triumph Rocket 3 headlamps. Vintage MotoX front mudguards and custom fork guards match the ceramic-coated Scrambler 1200 stock exhaust, fora retro vibe paying homage toearly motocross and enduro bikes. Our good friends at Image Design Custom worked with Stockwell on the paint,with bright colour schemesechoingbikes fromthe enduro and motocross scene of the 1980s, withre-shaped seatstrimmed to match. White, Sunburst Yellow, and Black gracethe Baja XL,and White with two-tone Scrubs Teal on the Baja X. Our Baja 400 X(Scrambler 400 X) took on a White and Ultra Violet custom paint scheme with are-trimmed Speed 400 saddle andavintage front mudguard and fork guards complement the front fairing number board. Last but not least, the main feature on the 400 isacustom header pipe and S&S Cycles Grand National muffler. One that Stockwell has used on many a Triumph custom and has become a signature feature. METZELER KAROO 4 The Metzeler Karoo 4 is the latest and greatest road legal knobbly adventure tyre from Metzeler, one of Germanys most famous and long-running tyre manufacturers. Designed to offer unrivalled off-road performance with enough on-road ability for everyday use make this the perfect tyre for our Baja Series Scrambler range of custom Triumph Motorcycles. A true 50/50 adventure motorcycle tyre. The scoop-shaped blocks maximise the rack effect on soft terrains; the tyre knobbles promote both massive centre traction and lateral self-cleaning and the whole pattern layout ensures continuous support at any lean angle even on hard-packed terrains making it exemplary for your off-road adventures. A new generation of hard-resistant rubber compounds that can operate on a wide range of temperatures and an optimised tyre footprint for great results. THE BAJA 1000 Located less than 100 miles south of San Diego, sitting comfortably on the Pacific coast of Mexico, you'll find the small city of Ensenada. Every year you'll find daring adrenaline junkies gathering in this beautiful seaside city for the annual, 1000-mile-long, Baja 1000: the final race of a four-race series. Ensenada hosts the event due to its location as the entry point to the Baja Californian desert, a desolate and other-worldly location. Host to mountains, vast swathes of inhospitable desert, and the occasional ranch, the Baja desert has it all in terms of the most testing terrains available. Not only does it offer the harshest landscapes, but the weather conditions also mean racers could encounter heavy fog, blistering heat, or even snow! Then there is the silt: a thin, sand-like substance. Kicked up by the vehicle's spinning wheels, silt impairs a driver's vision and can expose any weaknesses in the engine's durability. In other races, drivers can get used to the consistency of circuits; the Baja 1000 offers no such solace. The Baja 1000 track alternates between a loop, beginning and ending in Ensenada, and a point-to-point track, which starts in Ensenada before finishing in La Paz. And no loop or track is the same when they return to the calendar. Careering down coastlines or flying through the desert, this track is ruthless; it is generally seen as a massive accomplishment if you even manage to make it to the finish line.

MORE STORIES Mon, 03 Jun 2024 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/marcs-triumph-adventure-experience MARC'S TRIUMPH ADVENTURE EXPERIENCE. PUBLISHED 23.05.2024 "One of the amazing things about these trips is people meet strangers and come home as great friends." Earlier this month Marc Jordan,Head of Business at our Triumph East London store, started a journey with 7 other riders to the Welsh Brecon Beacons for an unforgettable time at the Triumph Adventure Experience. Triumph's world-class facilities include a multi-terrain arena, fully equipped adventure centre; incorporating a classroom, briefing room, and refreshment area. During their trip, the 8 riders were able to experience a full range of Triumph models built for off-road riding. Keep reading to hear about Marc's documented travels with old and newly made friends in what turned out to be a fantastic shared experience for everyone who joined. "On the 12th of April Triumph East London along with 7 customers headed to the Triumph Adventure Centre for a day of off-road training. Meeting first at the dealership, our sales specialist John Cullen was on his first trip with us,welcomingand helpingprepare himself and everyone else for the journeyahead. One of the amazing things about these trips is people meet strangers and come home as great friends. We headed off at 10 AMmaking a leisurely ride around the M25 and onto the M4 where we had our first stop and a chance for a coffee. Somethingthat'selevated these adventures even more is using helmet comms. Having the abilityto speak to those on the same adventure as youhelps build relationships andthe stories and general chat are hilarious, especially when people forget they are live! You can imagine... After crossing the bridge into sunny Wales, we stopped again for a drink and to stretch our legs. The excitement was growing at this point, helped by the fantastic weather. After another 45 minutes, we arrived at the Abercrave Inn, our accommodation for the next two nights. We found the hotel within somebeautiful scenery and made the most oftherestaurant and bar which we enjoyed just enough, but an early night was in order. "Its fantastic to see how even very experienced riders can learn new skills quickly when given the correct training." The next morning, we enjoyed a delicious breakfast and thenmade our way to the Adventure Center,just a convenient ten-minute ride from the Inn. We were met by the super-friendly Beth, who booked us all in and gave us the riding equipment we needed. You only need to bringa crash helmet and yourself, they take care of the rest. I should also say that 7 out of 10 of us on the trip had never done any off-road riding on larger bikes, so some nerves were going around. These were mostly settled by meeting our instructors Gary, John, and Gareth. I've been taught by these guys before and I have to say, they're the best in the business. We were introduced to our bikes, with a perfectmix of the Tiger 1200 Rally Pro, Tiger 900 Rally Pro, Scrambler 1200 XE, Scrambler 900 and the all-new Scrambler 400 X. We swapped around bikes over the day so we were all able to experience each one and get a feel for all models. We then made our way to the arena which is an experience on its own, especially for someone who's not ridden a bike set up for off-road, on the road, with knobbly tires. We managed to make it, even though the look on some people's faces said "What the hell am I doing here!". The training started helping us understand the balance of the bikes along with an introduction to what we would be doing. We then jumped on for the first session which covered tight turns, braking, and understanding how the different modes on the bikes affect how you can ride them.Its fantastic to see how even very experienced riders can learn new skills quickly when given the correct training. "We swapped the bikes around often during the day with the Scrambler 400 X becoming a firm favourite." After getting a feel for the different models and covering the basics, we headed off to the trails and were shown techniques for riding through ruts, deep water, steep hills, and declines. We swapped the bikes around often during the day with the Scrambler 400 X becoming a firm favourite. There were a few unwanted dismounts at a walking pace, but they allowed the camaraderie that had been built from the previous day's riding and time together over dinner, by helping each other out with encouragement. This was followed up with a de-brief and a well-deserved coffee. Then for the main event. With the Welsh rain falling we journeyed back along a 30-mile ride using more trails and fire roads around the local area. Finding ourselves at a small river crossing, we'd discovered a great photo opportunity. Arriving back at the adventure centre we were handed our certificates and given another debrief from the day overall. It has to be said how amazing the instructors and all the staff were with us. We changed back into our own bike gear and made our way back to our accommodation, where we enjoyed another tasty meal, and drinks while reliving all the stories from the day and playing who could stay awake past 9! We set off for home the following morning around 11 AMfor a very chilled ride home and we can't wait to go back again.

PUBLISHED 23.04.2024 WHICH IS THE BEST TRIUMPH 660 MODEL FOR YOU? Test ride a Daytona 660, Tiger Sport 660, or Trident 660 from now until June 30 2024 for the chance to WIN 660* to spend onlinewith LIND. Triumph's impressive middleweight range has been turning heads ever since the Trident was released in 2021 and for good reason. When the Trident 660 was released it was a breath of fresh air for the brand, bringing a more accessible Naked Roadster to the table that sported a lighter but thrilling 80bhp at a more affordable price point. While the Trident is no Street Triple S, it can't be underestimated. This gorgeous-looking bike is powerful in its own right and makes a top choice for commuting or weekend fun, in a way that suits both new and experienced riders alike. It's fast, but not in a way that's hard to manage, and its steering is accurate and easy. On the other hand, the Trident's faired brother, the Tiger Sport 660, is a more than capable all-rounder. Built with comfortability, space, and usability in mind, the Sport 660 is built for sport touring and everyday usage. The handlebars are wider and closer to the rider with improved Showa suspension for more stability and higher ride quality. Like the Trident, the Tiger Sport 660 is excitingly revy in a way that feels powerful yet friendly. Road and Rain mode are all you need to stay comfortable on the road along with traction control and ABS as standard, and with plenty of luggage options and more space for a passenger on seat and feet, this bike is a perfect mix for the everyday ride and weekend getaway. Now for the newest model in the range, the Daytona 660. Built for a new audience, one which anyone can enjoy. Barging it's way into the softer sports class the Daytona 660's biggest bragging right is its triple engine, bringing something different to the sector. In fact, Triumph has basically delivered a new engine compared to the Trident and Tiger Sport 660, with an updated crankshaft, pistons, cylinder head, high-lift cams, airbox, throttle bodies, exhaust, gearbox ratios, and intake ports, which are all unique to the model. Making more power and more torque than both other 660 models, the Daytona revs higher and hits harder on the road, along with a reworked exhaust which sounds divine. It's easy to forget you're not riding with a supersport engine. With Sport, Road, and Rain modes, the technology is quite basic but is all you need for a fantastic ride and compared to the other models in its sector, the Daytona 660 is incredible value for the amount of bike you get.

PUBLISHED 04.04.2024 Book a test ride on the Trident 660with LIND Triumph. TRIUMPH'STRIBUTE TO 5-TIME ILSE OF MAN TT WINNER'SLIPPERY SAM'. For one year only Triumph has released a limited edition version of the Trident 660, celebrating Triumph racing excellence. The Trident 660 Triple Tribute Edition introduces a fresh new look with bold racing graphics paying tribute to the legendary 'Slippery Sam', five-time consecutive winner of the Isle of Man TT (1971-1975). With enhanced quality, performance, and handling the Triple Tribute Edition comes with Triumph Shift-Assist, fly screen, and belly pan all as standard for the ultimate racing-inspired, middle-weight roadster. The Triple Tribute is, of course, a Trident 660 through and through with its minimalistic clean lines, uncluttered design, and exceptional fit and finish, but has taken a modern approach to Triumph's racing heritage with an iconic white, blue, and red color scheme inspired by 'Slippery Sam's triple-engine race-winning machine. On the side of the tank is a dynamic race plate-inspired '67' graphic, the same number the five-time Isle of Man TT winner used, along with a colour-matched flyscreen and belly pan for finishing touches. Along with striking new paintwork, the Triple Tribute comes standard with Triumph's Shift-Assist. For higher performance, the Triumph Shift Assist 'Up & Down Quickshifter' is engineered for seamless city riding and fun open road rides, allowing for swift and smooth gear changes without clutch engagement, even at low RPM levels. To maximise safety and rider enjoyment the model also comes with road and rain riding modes along with switchable traction control. These are controlled on the coloured TFT instrument display designed for easy rider interaction on the move, and to clearly present key information to the rider. Of course, we can't speak about any version of the Trident 660 without talking about the impressive triple engine. The 660 triple engine derives from Triumph's multi-class leading sports performance triple platform, delivering a perfect balance of low-down torque and exhilarating top-end power for optimum thrill and responsive performance. Putting out 80 BHP @ 10,250 RPM and 64 Nm torque @ 6,250 RPM, the Trident 660 embodies an agile and confidence-inspiring ride signature to Triumph with its chassis set-up and high-spec equipment, including premium Showa upside-down forks, Showa RSU, and Nissin brakes. With a narrow profile, perfectly positioned foot pegs, low 805mm seat height, adjustable brake lever, and lightweight slip and assist clutch, the Trident delivers a comfortable and confidence-inspiring ride. Even for newer riders the Trident is a great choice with the option to have an accessory-fit kit applied to restrict the bike, making it suitable for A2-licence riders. This can be de-restricted back to full power at one of our Triumph dealerships. If you're eager to try out the Trident 660speak to the team at Triumph London, East London, North London, or West Londonto book your test ride today.

MORE STORIES Tue, 02 Apr 2024 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/harley-davidson-breakout117-review HARLEY-DAVIDSON BREAKOUT 117 REVIEW PUBLISHED 27.03.2024 The pinnacle of Harley-Davidson cruisers. When the Breakout was introduced in 2013 it was available with the original "Twin Cam" powered 103 engine along with a higher-specced CVO version. In 2018, the beefy cruiser received an upgrade with a new Softail chassis along with the option of a 107 or 114 Milwaukee Twin engine. Now we're here, the marvelous 117. Of the Harley cruiser range, there's no mistaking that the Harley-Davidson Breakout 117 is the fastest, most powerful motorcycle you can hit the tarmac on. The 117 model gets its name from the bigger, better, Milwaukee-Eight 117 air- and oil-cooled engine, which is the pinnacle of torque and displacement in a factory-installed, regular-production Harley-Davidson powertrain. The engine offers plenty of punch with a massive 1923cc capacity, feeling raw yet flexible with a familiar Harley character. With 102 HP and 168 Nm torque at 3,500 RPM, the 117 engine is an enjoyable upgrade on the smaller 114 model's 93 HP and 155 Nm torque at 3,250 RPM. The Breakout 117 also features a distinctive high-performance Heavy Breather intake with a forward-facing exposed filter element to flow more air into the engine. More performance, classic cruiser design. While the engine is impressive alone, we couldn't talk about the Breakout 117 without pointing out how gorgeous it looks. With a raked front fork, teardrop-shaped tank, single headlight, two-piece aluminium dual seat, beefy new chrome engine, and a dual exhaust gracing both sides of the bike, the newest Breakout is a marvel to look at with the premium build quality we've come to expect from a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. The equipment and electronics are about as minimal as you can get, with ABS, switchable traction, and cruise control available on a tiny LCD found engrained in the center of the handlebars. The slick, barebones design stays true to the build of the bike and looks simplistic, yet charming. What's just as charming is the way it rides. With 19mm higher bar risers, the handlebars are closer to the rider with a reshaped seat to create a seamless flow into the new tank. These minute changes have made a huge improvement in comfort on the road and while the Breakout may not be a tourer, you can easily enjoy some extended riding. Newly designed 26-spoke cast aluminium wheels are matched with chunky Michelin Scorcher 21" front and 18" back tyres to lean into the aggressive look of the bike, and the low and long frame, weighing 310kg wet, feels hefty but is well worth getting used and only feels right with the strong, beefy character of the bike. The 2023 Breakout has bought back a larger, beautifully shaped 18.9-litre fuel tank used by models previous to the 2018 version. Surrounding the tank, the 117 is bigger and brighter, dripping in chrome from the fender supports, side covers, and muffler shields, to the turn signals, mirrors, and Heavy Breather intake. For 2024 the Breakout 117 has moved on from the popular Baja Orange to the new Alpine Green, Billiard Gray, Blue Burst, White Onyx Pearl, and classic Vivid Black. The Breakout 117 is available to test ride now at your local LIND Harley-Davidson, ready to experience on the open road. Speak to our friendly sales teams at Guildford, Newmarket, Reading, or Watford today so we can help find the perfect Harley-Davidson for you.

PUBLISHED 21.03.2024 Book a test ride on the new Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X with LIND Triumph. "Both awesome for the urban ride." Brand-new for 2024 Triumph has released its two new 400cc motorcycles, the Scrambler 400 X and Speed 400. With both bikes shaking up the market we paid Angus from Triumph London a visit, to get his comparison of the two models after having the chance to take them out for a ride in the capital: "The Scrambler 400 X and Speed 400 are two awesome new bikes in Triumph's range which both have liquid-cooled 400cc engines or if you really want to be precise 398.15cc. These engines are single cylinders and put out around 40 brake horsepower making perfect entry-level bikes, which you can even get on the A2 license. This could then lead on to moving up in the range to our 900 and 1200cc bikes. Now a few little features about the bikes. We have the standard stem mirrors on the Scrambler 400 X whereas on the Speed 400 we have the bar in mirrors. The Scrambler 400 X also comes with hand guards along with the headlight bezel all as standard. Now one of the main differences between these two bikes apart from the seat height which you can easily see, the Scrambler being at 835mm and the Speed being at 790mm, is the front suspension setup. There's alonger travel than the Scramble 400 X, perfect for those off-road moments. It also has a 19-inch front wheel, whereas the Speed 400 has a 17-inch front wheel. Both bikes are kitted out with ByBre brake calipers at the front as single, and on the rear,both have the ByBre as well. Weight-wise, these bikes are sitting at around 170kg wet-weight, so nice and light on the road. Each bike comes in three colour schemes, with the Scrambler coming inMatt Khaki Green, Phantom Black, or Carnival Red, and the Speed 400 coming in Carnival Red two-tone, Caspian Blue, and Jet Black. Really cool styles for both of these bikes! Join Cal and Amy fromNorth London for a ride-out on the two new models. The models have about 20 different accessories that you can choose from ranging from engine protectors, trackers, and alarms, along with stylised components. You can get a high-level mudguard for the Scrambler 400 X or bullet LED indicators for the Speed 400. Some of these are compatible with both bikes, but all allow the rider to accessorise and make the bike their own. A little bit about the riding style of these two bikes. They are both awesome for the urban ride. When you take it off-road, the Scrambler 400 X comes into play over the Speed 400. With the longer suspension travel and the better clearance for those little green lanes, it's an awesome bike for those situations. Where the Speed 400 dominates over the Scrambler however is inurban riding, as with us being in the centre of London the bike is great for nipping in and out of traffic. Shorter wheelbase, smaller front tyre, easier to turn around on. Over the past few months, since these bikes got announced by Triumph, they've really hit the ground running. With loads of orders being taken these bikes are proving to be fabulous, already competing with the mid-size to low-engine size models from other motorcycle brands."

"Riding through the hills and small villages on these brand new 2024 Tourers was epic!" This February some of our LIND Harley-Davidson team were lucky enough to fly out to Marseille, France to experience the brand new 2024 Road Glide and Street Glidewith Harley-Davidson UK. Cam from Newmarket Harley-Davidson made the trip abroad to get his first impressions. Here's what Cam had to say about his time in Marseille: "Having the opportunity to be invited to the south of France, riding through the hills and small villages on these brand new 2024 Tourers was epic! Pushing the bikes to the limits on the sweeping coastlines and cracking the throttle in the straights was a blast and sharing that experience with other Harley enthusiasts made the whole thing even more enjoyable." The new Road Glideticked multiple boxes for me as a lover of the shark-nose fairing. It brings greater travel in the suspension which allowed me to feel more comfortable bouncing around the not-so-well-maintained roads we face every day. Having better suspension on both models made me want to stay in the saddle for evenlonger, without getting uncomfortable and having to take lots ofbreaks. The new handlebars are also a HUGE game-changer! With over 25 degrees of adjustability, they givea simple and very effective way to reach a wider audienceof riders by making it much easier to tailor your riding position, making the handling flexible, and giving you greater control in the bends and curves whilst feeling like you are riding a Softail chassis. "Harley-Davidson has done a great job at making two already fantastic models, even greater." The new Street Glide was very impressive. The new weight reduction and lighter fairing, gave me more control in the handlebars to carry myself and dip in and out of bends far easier than the previous year'smodels. Even getting the bike off itsside has anoticeable difference! The wider throttle body and a few other engine upgrades meanmore power than the 2023 Street Glide and Road Glide ST's as well as having 3 phenomenal ridingmodes thatreally do make a difference to the specific type of riding you want to achieve. Lastly, on both bikes, you have the new Skyline OS system which in motion, is a thing of beauty. It's well-executed and easy to navigate.

PUBLISHED 01.03.2024 The new 2024Harley-DavidsonHydra-Glide Revival. ALL-NEW HYDRA-GLIDE REVIVAL. Introducing the newest motorcycle models in one of the most coveted collections from Harley-Davidson. The Icons Collection resurrects a champion of the Panhead era with the release of the limited-edition, serialised 2024 Hydra-Glide Revival. With wartime utilitarianism in the rearview mirror, Harley-Davidson entered the 1950s with the 74-cubic-inch Panhead powertrain, the Hydra-Glide telescopic front end, and refreshing color schemes that brought new energy to the only surviving American motorcycle manufacturer. One of the most beloved models was the 1956 FLH, which featured a red base color with a white stripe, known as the slash two-tone color scheme. Now, 75 years after the 1949 introduction of the Hydra-Glide front end, Harley-Davidson is reviving this icon of the Panhead era in serialized limited production. The Hydra-Glide Revival is limited to 1,750 models. CLASSIC STYLE. The all-new Hydra Glide Revival pays homage to an era in which Harley-Davidson introduced refreshing new colour schemes that brought new energy to the manufacturer during the 50s. The model reintroduces the renowned two-tone "splash" paint scheme from 1956 models in Redline Red and Birch White. The solo seat and saddlebags are inspired by a custom 1956 FLH, fringed and embellished with candy-coloured rosettes, white seam piping, and red contrast stitching. The Hydra-Glide Revival also features a two-tone windshield matched in Redline Red and period correct. Limited to 1,750 bikes, each individual motorcycle has a serialised "Hydra-Glide Revival" emblem on the handlebar riser cap, as well as an "Icons Motorcycle Collection" graphic on the rear fender. The Hydra-Glide Revival features a classic Redline Red and Birch White paint scheme. MODERN PERFORMANCE. While the 74-cubic-inch Panhead motor was a marvel at the birth of the American highway, the new Icon features today's Milwaukee-Eight 114 V-twin engine, delivering modern performance and a classic Harley-Davidson, look, sound, and feel. Modern performance also includes cruise control, a Screamin' Eagle High-Flow Air Cleaner, and the lowered, hidden mono-shock suspension of the modern Softail chassis providing a vintage rigid look. To get your hands on thestunning Hydra-Glide Revivalbefore anyone else, contact your nearest LIND Harley-Davidson store at Guildford, Newmarket, Reading, or Watford and speak to our team for more information.

MORE STORIES Thu, 22 Feb 2024 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/new-triumph-tiger-1200-updates-for-2024 NEW TRIUMPH TIGER 1200 UPDATES FOR 2024. PUBLISHED 15.02.2024 ENHANCED CAPABILITY. Triumph Motorcycles has revealed new features and enhancements for its Tiger 1200 family for 2024, making the range even more advanced and refined. The updates include further refinements to the engine, enhanced comfort and ergonomics, improved cornering ground clearance, reduced seat height with Active Preload Reduction and distinctive new colours. Triumphs 1160cc triple engine now delivers an even more refined riding experience, with superior low speed control, whilst retaining the exciting and unmistakable triple character from its T plane crank. With changes to the crankshaft, alternator rotor and balancer to increase engine inertia, plus some associated engine calibration changes, the Triumph engineering team has been able to create a smoother and more precise low rev torque delivery. Customers will be able to feel the increased smoothness while accelerating or decelerating, especially at low speeds. An updated clutch design will also mean that riders experience a smoother engagement when changing into first gear. Triumph has also enhanced the all-day comfort of the Tiger 1200 for customers looking for long-distance touring capability. The engine itself is now even smoother and more refined, thanks to a revised engine balancing strategy, which improves comfort through all the key rider touchpoints. The dampened handlebars and risers, which have proven so popular in the Explorer models, have also been introduced to the GT Pro and Rally Pro, delivering a smoother ride with increased mirror visibility. The rider seat has been re-designed with a flatter profile, providing more space for the rider which will help reduce fatigue on longer trips. The accessory low seat, which reduces the seat position by 20mm to give a lowest seat height of 830mm on the GT Pro and 855mm on the Rally Pro, has also been designed to be significantly more comfortable. A longer clutch lever has also been introduced, providing increased space for riders fingers adding further comfort especially on longer journeys. Triumph has also increased the cornering ground clearance of the Tiger 1200 GT Pro and GT Explorer models, by lifting the footpeg positions and moving them closer to the bike. The new Active Preload Reduction feature, which was revealed in August 2023, offers the rider greater confidence by reducing the rear suspension preload as the Tiger 1200 slows to a stop, lowering the seat height by up to 20mm, simply by pressing the Home button on the switch cube for one second. The Tiger 1200 is now available in four variants, with new colours for 2024. The Tiger 1200 GT Pro and GT Explorer, tailor made for the perfect road-focused adventure ride, are now available in eye-catching Carnival Red, as well as the previous options of Snowdonia White and Sapphire Black. The Tiger 1200 Rally Pro and Rally Explorer, perfect for an all-terrain adventure, are available in stylish new Matt Sandstorm, and Jet Black options, as well as the popular Matt Khaki. Chief Product Officer Steve Sargent said: The updates to the Tiger 1200 range for 2024 will deliver an even more refined ride, broadening its global appeal. While the current generation model has already made a big impact on this segment, more than doubling annual sales of the Tiger 1200 around the globe, our world-class engineering team is alwayslooking for new ways to refine and enhance every model. By listening to customer feedback and integrating some of the new enhancements already revealed in the new Tiger 900, this range of updates come together to deliver a significant improvement to the riding experience. First launched in 2021, the latest generation Tiger 1200 was designed to be the worlds most capable, agile and manoeuvrable large capacity adventure motorcycle. Since then, the Tiger 1200 range has seen global sales success, and the Tiger 1200 GT Explorer with its 30 litre tank, was even the bike of choice for Enduro World Champion Ivan Cervantes when he took the Guinness World Records title for riding the greatest distance in 24 hours on a motorcycle.

The Tiger 900s trademark three-cylinder engine has received a major update, including revised engine components, which provides 13% more power than the previous generation, giving 108PS of peak power and a higher peak torque of 90Nm. The new engine also offers greater tractability lower in the rev range. With its T-plane crank and offset firing intervals, the Tiger 900 maintains its characterful and distinctive performance and sound, as well as achieving enhanced performance throughout the whole rev range and up to 9% better fuel economy. All-new active safety features provide more capability across the range, including enhanced braking for better control and reduced stopping distances, and a new emergency deceleration warning system, which activates the hazard lights when braking rapidly and automatically deactivates when you pull away. New marker lights provide a prominent silhouette especially at night and in poor visibility. The new range also features new 7 TFT instruments, with new graphics and menu system and a new USB-C cockpit charger, as well as My Triumph Bluetooth connectivity as standard on all models. The new rider seat is flatter and roomier, with heated seats on both Pro models, designed specifically to provide more long-distance comfort. With 20mm adjustability on the seat height for all models, and an accessory heated low rider seat available which reduces the seat height by a further 20mm. This offers GT models with a potential seat height as low as 800mm, which combined with the narrow stand over width, improves accessibility. A new damped handlebar mounting system creates a more comfortable ride, plus the enhanced handlebar position on the Rally Pro, with the bars 15mm closer, facilitates a more agile ride while sitting or standing. Bringing even more Tiger attitude, the 2024 range has new bodywork across the beak, cockpit and side panels in an integrated design that gives each motorcycle an aggressive, adventure focused stance. New contemporary and dynamic paint schemes and graphics complete the look. A new Akrapovi silencer heads up the comprehensive list of more than 50 accessories, plus customers can choose from four tailored accessory packs, the Performance, Protection, Trekker and Expedition kits. MORE PERFORMANCE. Unique to Triumph, the T-plane crank engine with its 1,3,2 firing order and distinctive, raspy triple exhaust bark, has been further developed for the new Tiger 900 range. Engine revisions have resulted in a power increase of 13% taking the Tiger 900 from 95PS to an impressive 108PS. This has been achieved while gaining more torque and tractability at low RPM. The increased power can be felt throughout the rev-range, with a more muscular mid-range and improved acceleration. On the road the new Tiger 900 is agile and easy to ride at low speeds, but with plenty of performance for rapid bursts of acceleration and effortless high-speed touring. In more technical off-road situations, the fine throttle control is intuitive and confidence-inspiring Each model benefits from a specific suspension set-up, designed to meet the needs of the rider for each model. The GT is fitted with high-quality Marzocchi suspension with adjustable compression and rebound damping. With 180mm of fork travel and 170mm of rear wheel travel, the set-up has been tuned specifically for the GT to deliver excellent road handling and long-ride comfort with the capability to tackle off-road terrain. The GT Pro also uses Marzocchi suspension. Adjustable forks are matched to an electronically adjustable rear suspension unit this allows for easy and convenient preload adjustments at the touch of a button to suit riders travelling solo, with a pillion or fully loaded. The Rally Pro uses Showa suspension, offering riders adjustability and a generous 240mm front and 230mm rear wheel travel. This high-quality progressive suspension set-up provides capability and versatility on all roads. Complementing this specific suspension, the road-focused GT and GT Pro have lightweight cast alloy wheels, 19 at the front and 17 at the rear, for the perfect balance between road handling and off-road capability. The Rally Pro uses tubeless spoked wheels with a 21 front for pure off-road performance and features a broad tyre choice. Best in class Brembo Stylema brake calipers are fitted to all three new Tiger 900 models, ensuring effective stopping power and a sensitive lever feel that helps to keep braking powerful, smooth and controlled. MORE CAPABILITY. The new Tiger 900 for 2024 features new active safety features to improve visibility on the road, including a new emergency deceleration warning system, which activates the hazard lights when braking rapidly and automatically deactivates when you pull away. In addition, new marker lights provide a prominent silhouette especially at night and in poor visibility. Optimised cornering ABS and Traction Control comes as standard across all three Tiger 900 models. Together with the ride-by-wire throttle, the level of assistance can be altered with four different standard riding modes Road, Rain, Sport and Off-Road. The GT Pro has five modes with the additional Rider Programmable mode allowing fine tuning to suit the riders preferences and riding style. The Rally Pro has six modes with the extra Off-Road Pro mode disabling ABS and traction control completely to allow the Tiger 900 Rally Pros capability to be fully utilised off road. The new enhanced braking system automatically balances front and rear braking effort, working in harmony with the optimised cornering ABS system, to improve stability under hard braking while significantly reducing stopping distances. Triumphs Slip and Assist clutch system is fitted to all three Tiger 900 models, giving light clutch lever action to reduce rider fatigue, especially for congested urban riding conditions and for technical off-road riding. This system also improves rear wheel control under rapid deceleration, assisting with smooth and assured corner entry on a range of surfaces. The Pro models are also equipped with the Triumph Shift Assist system. This allows clutch-less gear changes both up and down the gearbox for seamless acceleration and super-smooth deceleration. The My Triumph Connectivity System is now standard on all Tiger 900 models. Music, phone and turn by turn navigation can all be accessed via the new intuitive and easy-to-read 7 TFT display which is bonded to the glass for a crisp, non-reflective image. Heated grips and seats plus a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) are also standard on both Pro models. MORE ALL-DAY COMFORT. The seat has been redesigned for enhanced long-distance comfort whilst retaining the ease of movement for the rider to find their perfect ergonomic position. All models feature 20mm of adjustability, as well as heated seats for both Pro models, for optimum comfort in all weathers. A new damped handlebar mounting system creates a more comfortable ride, while the handlebar position on the Rally Pro has been moved back by 15mm. This slight reduction in reach improves seated comfort while also improving rider control and bike agility in the standing position when riding off-road. Even the shape of the 20-litre fuel tank has been carefully considered to provide the perfect seated riding position without compromising control when standing. An adjustable screen with five settings spanning 50mm, ensures all riders can enjoy excellent high-speed wind protection. MORE ATTITUDE. The aggressive Tiger styling and distinctive adventure-focused stance has been revised and sharpened. The new bodywork now has a cleaner, more integrated design that flows beautifully from the beak, through the cockpit and into the side panels. Three striking new paint schemes and graphics are available for each model. The GT and GT Pro are available in Snowdonia White as standard, with two premium paint options, Graphite and Sapphire Black, and Carnival Red and Sapphire Black. The Rally Pro is available in Carbon Black and Sapphire Black, with the option to upgrade to the striking Ash Grey and Intense Orange or Matt Khaki Green and Matt Phantom Black. ACCESSORIES. Over 50 accessories and four accessory kits are available for the new Tiger 900 range. The fully loaded Performance accessory pack includes a brand new Akrapovi silencer, the first of a number of new exhaust systems developed in partnership. With a lightweight titanium design with carbon end caps, the new silencer delivers a 1kg weight saving and an even better sound. The pack also includes front and rear scrolling indicators with new marker light feature, and billet machined adventure footpegs. The Protection Pack showcases key practical accessories, lower and upper engine bar kits, tank pad, sump guard, fork protectors, radiator guard and for off-road, a headlight guard kit.

PUBLISHED24.01.2024 The new 2024 Harley-DavidsonCVO Road Glide ST. A NEW ERA FOR TOURING. The brand new 2024 Harley-Davidson lineup is finally here and it's been well worth the wait! We're extremely excited to announce new models for the 2024 range with a selection of performance, comfort, and technology upgrades that define a new era for Touring with Harley-Davidson. Take a trip with us below as we cover all the ins and outs of the all-new, one-of-a-kind, CVO Pan America, the ultimate performance bagger with the CVORoad Glide ST, new CVO 25th Anniversary Editions of the CVO Road Glide and Street Glide, and dramatically improved 2024 Road Glide and Street Glide models that complete Harley's most impressive Grand American Touring range we've ever seen. The 2024CVO Road Glide STin Raven Metallic. 2024 CVO ROAD GLIDE ST. Introducing the 2024 CVO Road Glide ST, a motorcycle that elevates the concept of the hot-rod bagger to the extreme, inspired by the Screamin' Eagle factory team Road Glide bikes competing in the MotoAmerica King of the Baggers Championship. The CVORoad Glide ST is the quickest and most sophisticated performance bagger ever produced by Harley-Davidson. The brand new Milwaukee-Eight 121 High Output power train is tuned to produce 12 HP and 8 Nm torque more than the Milwaukee-Eight VVT 121 engine. The new model features a top speed electronically limited to 120 mph making it the fastest Grand American Touring motorcycle offered by Harley-Davidson ever. To boost acceleration performance in every gear, a 30 Tooth Sprocket provides a lower final drive ratio than the 32 Tooth Sprocket used in the CVO Road Glide model. Paired with the high-performance engine are premium adjustable suspension components that will meet the expectations of the most aggressive and demanding riders. The rear suspension features outboard Showa Remote Reservoirshock absorbers with front suspension featuring 47mm Showaforks both with adjustable preload and rebound and compression damping. Reducing weight is key for higher performance and the CVORoad Glide ST has introduced Screamin' Eagle Extreme Flow Titanium slip-on mufflers which feature oval-shaped, lightweight, titanium shells and forged carbon fiber end caps that reduce weight by 30% compared to the original equipment mufflers. Forged carbon fiber composite is also used to form the front fender, seat cowl, and tank console to save weight and add competition style, left unpainted to keep the forged carbon fiber material on display. Overall the new CVO Road Glide ST is specced at a dry weight of800lbs (363kg), 25lbs lighter than the new CVORoad Glide model. To handle power and performance, a 6-inch riser and handlebar with a flat bend puts the rider in an aggressive posture and a popular club-bike style point, with the solo seat featuring a raised rear bolster to help hold the rider in position under hard acceleration. While performance is the aim of the game, the features and technology on display is top of the top-of-the-line too. The CVO Road Glide ST has a 12.3" Colour Touchscreen Display powered by Skyline OS, the most tech-forward display ever offered by Harley-Davidson. In this display, you can choose from 5 selectable riding modes including a brand-new Track mode developed with input fromHarley-Davidson Factory Team rider Kyle Wyman. The mapping provides the best feel of torque delivery in a track day environment. Kyle says the mapping overlays are identical to what he uses on his Number 33 King of the Baggers Race bike. The new model also features premium 4-speaker Harley-Davidson audio powered by Rockford Fosgate Stage 2 audio system and a bold LED headlamp with integrated indicators. The performance is matched bythe bike's styling. The black anodised Switchback collection combines billet aluminium with rubber surfaces for a rugged look on the footboards, shifter peg, rear brake lever pad, and hand grips. The Flat-Out Bar provides tip-over protection withsleek West Coast style and a 5" Dark Smoke Wind Splitter windshield offers the perfect combination of effective airflow management and style. The CVORoad Glide ST comes in two paint choices: Gold & White Pearl or Raven Metallic, with the Factory Team bikes which raced in the King of the Baggers series inspiring the Screamin' Eagle graphic on the fairing sides, flowing into the fuel tank. The race team's Fast Johnnie graphic can also be found on the left side cover and the unique red CVOST branding has been laser etched intothe front wheel only. CVO's intention was not to fulfill custom motorcycle builder's dreams, but to inspire them, and what better model to inspire than the ultimate performance bagger:the CVO Road Glide ST. This beast of amotorcycleis extremely exclusive with very limited stock available. To get your hands on this stunning CVO STbefore anyone else, contact your nearest LIND Harley-Davidson store at Guildford, Newmarket, Reading, or Watford and speak to our team for more information.

The new Harley-Davidson Road Glide for 2024. 2024ROAD GLIDE & STREET GLIDE. For 2024 both the Harley-Davidson Road Glide and Street Glide have been reimagined with a top-to-toe redesign that includes category-leading technology, improving every aspect of the Grand American Touring experience. With the release of these two new models, Harley-Davidson has announced that the Special and ST versions of the Road Glide and Street Glide will not be returning for 2024. However, the fantastic new models offer comparable engine performance to the previous ST models, along with the fresh, new design elements, advanced technology, and enhanced rider comfort introduced with the 2023 CVORoad Glide & Street Glide. A brand new version of the Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine is exclusive to the new Road Glide and Sport Glide introducinga significant performance upgrade with 11% more horsepower and 7% more torque than previous standard models; equivalent to last year's ST versions. The 117 engine also features a new and improved liquid cooling system focused on the exhaust valve area of each cylinder head, improving rider comfort. A new airbox and air filter have more than 50% volume than the 107 and 114 airboxes and the heavy breather intake, and for riders that hunger for even more performance, the Screamin' Eagle Stage II Camshaft Kit for the Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine, plus Screamin' Eagle performance intake options and the new Screamin' Eagle Extreme Street Cannon Titanium Muffler are all available now. Both new models feature visual design elements introduced last year with the CVO Road Glide and Street Glide, with a dynamic visual flow along the key components of the motorcycles, from the fairing to the fuel tank, side covers, and saddlebags. The fairing design on both bikes has evolved for a sleek and modern look with a split vent now fully integrated into the design, a windshield thatappears to float above the fairing, and signature LED lighting providing instant recognition and a strong road presence, even at night. The Road Glide has a single LED headlamp with twin elements paying homage to all previous Road Glide model fairings and both models feature seamlessly integrated turn signals into the left and right lamp elements for a cleaner overall look. Each fairing is also part of a new aero system designed specifically to improve rider comfort. The adjustable veins on the trailing edge of the Road Glide fairing can be used to channel more or less air to the rider's torsoand aero deflectors based on the fork skirts of the Street Glide can be adjusted to reduce wind and turbulence to the rider's HUD. The brand new 2024 Harley-Davidson Street Glide. Whether traveling across town or country, both new models have been fully designed to enhance the Touring experience, with improved ergonomics for the dedicated Touring rider. The Road Glide handlebar has a wider, flatter bend than the previous shape, putting the rider in a more naturally comfortable riding position for long-distance riding. Both models also feature a newly redesigned seat shape and padding materials that offer an improvement in long-range comfort for most riders, and the front brake lever is adjustable for reach to best match the hand size and preference of the rider. New suspension components provide a dramatic improvement in rider comfort compared to the 2023 versions of the Road Glide and Street Glide, with the rear suspension now at 3 inches;a 50% increase comparison in travel. Showa Dual-Motion Technology Shock Absorbers replace the previous suspension that used emulsion technology and only one shock, improving the dampening response and giving a more predictable ride. The new bikes also receive a significant weight reduction of 16-18lbs less than the previous models. While performance and comfort are key to an incredible riding experience, the new Road Glide and Street Glide provide a host of technology upgrades to enhance that experience one step further. Both models feature a customisable 12.3" Colour Touchscreen display powered by Skyline OS, replacing all the analog instrumentation and most of the switches with more than a 400% increase in screen area compared to the 6.5" Boombox GTS screens found on previous models. With this also comes selectable ride modes for the first time that electronically control performance characteristics and level of technology intervention. These available modes include Rain, Road, Sport, and a fully customisable mode for the rider to tailor to their riding preferences. The full suite of rider safety enhancements come as standard, including ABS and traction control. Wi-Fi connectivity now enables Apple Car Play services from the rider's device to the screen and Android users can play music and place and receive phone calls through the system. The Bluetooth receiver for wireless headsets is now fully built into the system, meaning a separate module is no longer required and a new 4-channel 200W Amplifier that delivers a 100% power increase on the 2023 Boombox GTS system is introduced, providing a fantastic sonic performance from two 5.25" fairing-mounted speakers. If you love smashing music out of your ride, there's also the option to enhance that sound further with Rockford Fosgate-powered Harley-Davidson audio speaker and amplifier upgrades, which are available now and can be easily integrated with the Skyline OS. To build these Grand American Touring models into the ultimate Touring machines, Harley has also released a full suite of new HD Parts & Accessories allowing the rider to customise their very own riding experience.

Triumph has revealed an all-new triple-powered middleweight sports bike for 2024. The Daytona 660 delivers thrilling sports performance, a dynamic ride, and the highest quality, capability, and specification in its class. Featuring a significant evolution of Triumphs distinctive and unique 660cc triple engine, now with 95PS peak power and 69Nm of peak torque, the Daytona 660 provides a smooth, responsive and linear delivery with the perfect combination of low-down torque, mid-range and top-end power. As well as delivering 17% more power and 9% more torque than the Trident, the Daytona 660 also has a brand-new exhaust, creating an unmistakeable sports soundtrack. The Daytona 660s perfectly balanced chassis and intuitive, agile sports handling is combined with all-day riding comfort, thanks to high specification equipment including Showa upside down big piston 41mm forks and Showa preload adjustable monoshock RSU. The radial four piston brakes with twin 310mm discs and braided brake lines are paired with Michelins new Power 6 tyres.

The unmistakeable Daytona design DNA has been reimagined with fresh attitude for an aggressive new stance and clean lines. Distinctive twin LED headlights incorporate a central air intake and the minimal bodywork emphasises the athletic profile, ending in a contoured LED tail light. There are three striking colour options available, all featuring a bold 660 race-inspired graphic. As Triumph customers would expect, the Daytona has more than 30 Genuine Triumph Accessories to tailor performance, comfort, style and practicality, including an A2 licence kit, with a dedicated throttle twist grip and an engine tune that limits power to 35kW. A 10,000-mile service interval, two-year unlimited mileage warranty and Triumphs strong residual values contribute to securing a competitive cost of ownership, the lowest in the class. Steve Sargent, Triumphs Chief Product Officer said: The 660 has all the attitude and agility youd expect from the Daytona name, and brings with it the thrilling, useable, real world performance and all-day comfort that riders today are looking for. We are excited by the impact the Daytona 660 is going to have on the growing middleweight sports world. A legendary name reborn - the all-new middleweight sports leader. The perfect combination of low-down torque, thrilling top-end and unrivalled character, the Daytonas triple delivers 95PS at 11,250rpm with a hair-raising 12,650rpm redline. More than 80 percent of its 69Nm of peak torque is available from just 3,125rpm delivering responsive sporty and fully usable performance. By blending low-down torque and the tractability of a twin with the free-revving top end performance of an inline four, the engine has a unique triple soundtrack, further enhanced by the new exhaust which features 3 into 1 headers and a compact underslung silencer with stainless steel finisher. Power is delivered effortlessly through a slick six-speed gearbox and Triumphs Torque Assist clutch ensures a progressive, light lever action with a span optimised clutch lever for better reach.

Thrilling triple-powered sports performance - 95 PS peak power and 69Nm peak torque.

At LIND, 2023 has been a blast, with so many events happening around our 11 locations, from open days and bike nights to ride-outs and track days we've been doing it all. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our year; we hope you've enjoyed it as much as we have and that you've made some awesome memories.We look forward to spending more time with you in 2024! LIND EVENTS Across 2023 we held plenty of events across our dealerships, with all invited! At Newmarket, we held our 27th Birthday Party with live music from The Castels, some awesome food and celebrated the 1-year anniversary of opening our Captain Fawcett Pop-Up barbershop in-store. We also held our 3rd annual Hullabaloo, raising over1,000for Great Ormond Street Hospital, tosponsor our very own Phil and Lee, having a full hair removal treatment. At Guildford Harley-Davidson, we held a Birthday Bash in March with a delicious hog roast and the announcement of Guildford Custom's hot new rebrand. Wealso held a2nd annual Chilli Fiesta, holding a Chilli Con Carne contest with live music and a charity bake sale from the Hogsback Chapter. At Welwyn Garden City this year, we introduced an exciting ride-out calendar for anyone to tag along and enjoy our planned routes. From the Krazy Horse Cafe to the famous Royston Bike Show and even the seaside, thank you to all who joined our adventures this year. Not only that but at Welwyn, we welcomed two guest speakers into the dealership to tell their stories and raise money for the Essex & Herts Air Ambulance. In September we hosted author & motorcycle journalist Simon Weir to talkabout his life as a motorcycle tester andhis adventures across Europe and beyond. Following Simon's visit, we then invited Bruce Smart, whomay be better known for his YouTube ventures as TeapotOne. Bruce joined us for the evening to speak on his past as an ex-Met Police officer who circumnavigated the globe on a Suzuki GSXR1000, vlogging and writing about his adventures along the way. We're delighted with the response to these visits and want to say thank you to Simon and Bruce for taking the time to join us and we'reexcited for what's to come in the new year. Of course, we had plenty more events, withopen days across our otherstores throughout the year,along with our trademark Bike Nights which returnedin 2023 at Norwich, Newmarket, Reading& Watford, and we can't wait to see you all again in 2024. LIND TRACK EXPERIENCE Our biggest event this year was a first for us as we were joined onthe world-renowned Brands Hatch Indy Circuit. We had an absolute blast of a day with 75 people taking to the iconic track on their motorcycles. We were joined on the day by special guests such as former professional motorcycle racer Steve Parrish, Matt Read from the Triumph Adventure Centre, and our very own custom bike designer Charlie Stockwell. Thank you once again to all who attended the event and the amazing team at Brands Hatch who supported usand theriders on the day and made everyone feel comfortable out on the track. THE DISTINGUISHED GENTLEMAN'S RIDE 2023 This May we hosted The Brooklands Distinguished Gentleman's Ride at Triumph West London. As part of theworldwide annual event with over 100,000 riders in 107 countries, we helped raisefunds for the Movember charity to help tackle prostate cancer and mental health for men. The Brooklands Ride saw over 150 dapper dressed riders hit the road including lots of our team, raising over 21,500 in 2023, totaling 100,000 being raised from the Brooklands Ride since 2018. HARLEY-DAVIDSON 120TH ANNIVERSARY To mark their 120th Anniversary, Harley-Davidson announced a wide range of limited-edition models in 2023, with each bike featuring Red Heirloom paint and anniversary detailing. The crown jewel of these releases was the extremely limited, serialised custom bagger, theCVO Road Glide Limited. The celebrations didn't end there though, as Harley hosted their 120th Anniversary Homecoming Festival in Budapest, Hungary. Their celebration featured music and moto-culture all around, with over 100,000 people attending across the 4 days and nights. The most exciting part of the Homecoming Festival for us was entering our very own Custom Pam America; ELMO, into the Trailblazers competition. The Guildford Custom team created a gorgeous 1/1 Pan America 1250 with an ultimate supermoto-rally bike hybridbuild. Their entry featured perfectly executed paintwork from Image Design Custom, with styling cues taken from competition rally bikes to underline the hybrid design.

Tue, 12 Dec 2023 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/whats-new-in-2024bmw-motorrad-harley-davidsontriumph WHAT'S NEW IN 2024? BMW MOTORRAD BMW R 12 NINET & R 12 The new BMW R 12 nineT and R 12: a classic roadster for dynamic riding on country roads and a classic cruiser for cool, relaxed biking. With the R nineT, BMW Motorrad presented more than just a classic-style roadster in 2013. From the very beginning it combined classic motorcycle design and modern technology with high craftsmanship and diverse customization options. Shortly afterwards, the R nineT was enriched with attractive derivatives, giving rise to a whole model family for the BMW Motorrad Heritage world. R 1300 GS The new BMW R 1300 GS: Next level GS featuring a new boxer engine and new suspension, with significantly reduced weight and increased GS competence all-round. BMW Motorrad established a new segment of touring enduros more than four decades ago with the R 80 G/S. The BMW GS with boxer engine has been the undisputed leader of the competitive field ever since. To ensure this remains the case in the future, BMW Motorrad has opted for an almost completely new design for the new R 1300 GS, with an impressive weight saving of 12 kg compared to the previous model. M 1000 XR The new BMW M 1000 XR: the long-distance sports bike designed to meet the highest demands, from dynamic riding on country roads to long-distance touring and racing. At the end of 2018, BMW Motorrad already introduced the successful M model range strategy for motorcycles and has been offering M special equipment and M performance parts ever since. The new BMW M 1000 XR is the third M model from BMW Motorrad to celebrate its world premiere, following the M 1000 RR superbike and the dynamic M 1000 R roadster: The long-distance sports bike M 1000 XR. S 1000 XR Introducing the new S 1000 XR, an enhanced version of the successful long-distance sports bike and multiple test winner. Increased engine power, improved ergonomics, design refinements, and expanded standard features define the model's upgrades. The new S 1000 XR still shares its in-line 4-cylinder engine with theS 1000 RR, providing a smooth and powerful torque delivery and a harmonious power characteristic that contributes to excellent rideability. Compared to the predecessor model, the engine power has been increased by 4 kW (5 hp) to now 125 kW (170 hp) at an unchanged nominal engine speed of 11,000 rpm. The main reasons for the performance increase are a flow-optimised geometry of the intake channels and a customised mapping. The maximum torque generated is still 114 Nm at 9,250 rpm. F 900 GS, F 900 GS ADVENTURE & F 800 GS The new BMW F 900 GS, F 900 GS Adventure and F 800 GS: The new premium mid-range touring enduros provide purist riding fun thanks to even more sophisticated off-road, touring and adventure capabilities. With the new F 900 GS, F 900 GS Adventure and F 800 GS BMW Motorrad is significantly boosting its product range of touring enduros for the mid-range. While the new BMW F 800 GS is the ideal bike, especially for entry-level riders, the BMW F 900 GS Adventure is very well suited for extended adventure trips and for long, demanding tours. All three models have been significantly updated and now offer, among other things, an even higher level of standard equipment in addition to a new drive. The F 900 GS features many far-reaching innovations. The motorcycles range of uses has been considerably expanded thanks to its enhanced off-road qualities combined with a drastic weight reduction of 14 kg compared to the predecessor model making it a particularly sporty F Series model. CE-02 The new BMW CE 02 - neither e-scooter nor e-motorcycle: The cool eParkourer for cities and urban areas. With the new BMW CE 02, BMW Motorrad is presenting another e-vehicle for urban conurbations around two years after the CE 04 and is thus consistently pursuing its electric mobility strategy. Thanks to its electric drive, trend-setting design and innovative solutions, the eParkourer is a dynamic partner for a new kind of mobility and provides great riding fun in an urban environment. HARLEY-DAVIDSON CVO ROAD GLIDE & STREET GLIDE The new CVO Road Glide & CVO Street Glide models showcaseadvanced technology, enhanced rider comfort, and dynamic performance propelled by the powerful new Milwaukee-Eight VVT 121 engine. Exclusive and dramatic new visual designs present a transformative revision of the Harley-Davidson Grand American Touring platform. These brand new CVO models are available to order now at our LIND Harley-Davidson stores. With plenty more to be announced in 2024, we'll be here to keep you updated on any new models, icons, exclusives, and more. Be sure to subscribe to our email updates below to find out the latest. TRIUMPH TIGER 900 GT, GT PRO & RALLY PRO Delivering more power, torque, capability and comfort, the new Tiger 900 range from Triumph Motorcycles is raising the bar for middleweight adventure bikes in 2024. The new line-up includes the Tiger 900 GT, GT Pro and Rally Pro, each providing a significant step-up in performance and specification. The Tiger 900s trademark three-cylinder engine has received a major update, including revised engine components, which provides 13% more power than the previous generation, giving 108PS of peak power and a higher peak torque of 90Nm. The new engine also offers greater tractability lower in the rev range. With its T-plane crank and offset firing intervals, the Tiger 900 maintains its characterful and distinctive performance and sound, as well as achieving enhanced performance throughout the whole rev range and up to 9% better fuel economy. SCRAMBLER 1200 X & XE Triumph is launching its Scrambler line-up for 2024, with the introduction of the new, more accessible Scrambler 1200 X, and an enhanced top-specification Scrambler 1200 XE. Featuring Triumphs high-power 1200cc Bonneville engine with torque-rich performance, off-road ready 21-inch front wheel and Triumphs premium quality and finish, the two new models look set to raise the bar even higher for performance and style in the Scrambler category. The new Scrambler 1200 X delivers the same exceptional core capability, commanding riding position, and torque-rich performance Scrambler customers love, combined with a generous specification of equipment and technology. Built to be more accessible, the Scrambler 1200 X has a seat height of 820mm, reducing to 795mm with the accessory low seat, a generous dedicated specification that offers exceptional functionality at a more competitive price and a 10,000mile (16,000km) service interval to lower the cost of ownership. The cool and capable Scrambler 1200 XE also hits the road in the new year sporting updates including latest-generation Brembo Stylema calipers, new suspension with enhanced adjustability, enhanced styling details and improved touring capability. SCRAMBLER400 X & XE The Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X: two all-new models joining the Triumph range in 2024. Born into a peerless bloodline, the Speed 400 roadster joins Triumphs most successful modern classic line-up, the Speed Twin 900 and 1200 while the Scrambler 400 X takes its rugged design cues from the Scrambler 900 and 1200, with an off-road pedigree that goes back to the first factory Scramblers of the 1950s. Designed from the ground-up with a brand-new single engine platform at their heart, these new models are designed to deliver a fun, agile and confidence-inspiring ride for riders of all ages and experience levels. Together, with class-leading capability, rider-focused technology and category-leading quality and detail, and with a high level of standard specification, long service intervals and a comprehensive warranty, these accessible new models represent incredible value for money and bring Triumphs iconic style, quality and performance to a whole new generation of Triumph riders. TF 250-X Triumph Motorcycles has officially launched the new TF 250-X, revealing a class-leading power to weight ratio and the most complete specification package ever to launch into the ultra-competitive 250cc motocross market. Developed entirely by Triumph in close collaboration with racing champions including Ricky Carmichael and Ivn Cervantes, the new four stroke competition model is an all-new ground-up design. The performance racing powertrain and unique aluminium chassis are ultra compact and super light, with all the best components on the market, already fitted out of the crate. With a focused, aggressive style, the TF 250-X is slim, yet bold and will be instantly recognisable on the track, with its minimal and lightweight presence and distinctive Triumph Racing Yellow and black graphics scheme. BONNEVILLE STEALTH EDITIONS The world will soon be seeing Triumphs Bonnevilles in a new light, thanks to a dramatic new custom-style paint finish which makes its debut on eight Modern Classics in 2024. Available for one year only, the new Stealth Editions are an exclusive collection of eight beautiful Bonnevilles. Each model features its own unique tank design, which showcases a dramatic hand-painted finish that intensifies in the light to reveal vivid colour. The process starts with a base layer of mirror-finish metallic Silver Ice being applied to each tank, followed by a precisely placed dark to light Sapphire Black graphite vignette. Finally, a translucent tinted lacquer is applied in multiple layers, to build a deep and rich top coat. The transition from dark tinted graphite to vibrant colour, springs to life when exposed to light, varying in hue and tone under different conditions and appearing different from every angle. The hand-painted finish ensures subtle variations, making every motorcycle truly unique. THRUXTON FE Celebrated as the ultimate caf racer since 1964, the Triumph Thruxton will finish its final production run in 2024. In a fitting farewell to this award-winning motorcycle, Triumph has unveiled the Thruxton Final Edition, an exclusive and striking motorcycle with incredible specification, performance, capability and timeless style. Based on the Thruxton RS, with its sublime performance, agile handling and premium specification, this special edition is the result of generations of Thruxton development, culminating in this beautiful, and highly collectible, limited-edition motorcycle. Beautifully finished in an exclusive Competition Green paint scheme, with hand-painted gold lining and signed by the artist, the Thruxton Final Edition blends the style and traditional elegance of the RS, paying homage to the Thruxtons rich racing heritage.

Fri, 10 Nov 2023 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/lind-winter-bike-care-tips WINTER CARE TIPS WITH LIND 1. PROTECT YOUR FUEL SYSTEM If you're planning to store your motorcycle for more than a month, there are a few things you need to do to prepare it. First, fill up the fuel tank completely making sure you prevent any space for condensation. Then, add an additive to the fuel to prevent the ethanol in modern fuel from turning into jelly in the fuel system. Harley-Davidson offers a product called Ethanol Guardto help with this issue. This step is crucial as it can help you avoid potential problems in the fuel system when you want to start your motorcycle again in the spring. Using the fuel additive is a simple process. First, remove the cap and refer to the instructions to determine the appropriate amount to use. The bottle has measuring markings on the side to help you get the right quantity for your tank size. After measuring, add the required amount to your tank. To ensure that the fuel treatment is circulated throughout the fuel system and into your fuel injectors, you need to start up the bike and warm it up. By doing this, you can avoid any potential problems that you may encounter when you try to start the bike in a few months' time. If the fuel has gone stale and turned into jelly, the bike may struggle to start or may run very roughly. This is especially true for carbureted bikes, where the float bowl can become blocked and fuel will start to overflow when you try to turn the bike back on. If you've faced this problem before, we highly recommended that you addsome fuel additive to your tank, asa cost-effective way to prevent future problems. 2. PREVENT TYRE WEAR It is important to make sure that both tires are inflated to the correct factory pressure for your motorcycle model. You can use a tire inflator to do this or pop in-store to check your tyres with us for free. Ensure that your motorcycle's tires are properly inflated before you leave it parked, as if the tires are left with low pressurethey could become damaged where they sit bulgedat the bottom, potentially leading to cracks and wear. Although it may seem obvious to some, taking a few minutes to pump up your tires can save you a lot of money in the long run by preventing the need to buy new tires. If you're having trouble with your tyres or areunable to locate your tyre pressures in your manual, please contact your nearest LIND store for assistance. 3. KEEP YOUR BIKE CLEAN By clean, wedon't mean in a showroom condition, wemean to look at the bike as you clean it in case anything needs attention. Often, the dirt and debris on the road can conceal objects that we wouldn't usually notice. When the wheels spin, they kick up dirt, grit, and even salt that end up not only on the discs but also on the calipers, contaminating them. It is crucial to keep your calipers clean to ensure your brakes function efficiently. When calipers get excessively dirty or accumulate salt, they may not work as well, which could lead to potential accidents on the road. Therefore, it is essential to maintain and clean your calipers regularly to ensure your safety while driving. As per any routine clean, usea hose, bucket of water, and any appropriate cleaning products. Wehave a wide variety of cleaningproducts available in-store and online from Harley-Davidson, Muc-Off, and more. 4. KEEP WARM WHILST RIDING It's beneficial to layer up, especially when riding over the colder, winter months.When riding a motorcycle in cold weather, your hands, feet, and core can become numb, which can slow your reactions and ability to properly control the bike. We recommend wearing thermal undergarments with purpose-fit winter riding gear to keep yourself warm and comfortable while riding. Explore our expansive range of ridewear available online HERE. 5. PROTECT AGAINST CONDENSATION A common misconception of putting your bike away for Winter is that you should pullit out once a week,start it up, let it get warm,turn it off again, and then put it away. This is the worst thing that you can do for your bike. We recommend putting your bike away for Winter and then leaving it until you're ready to see it again in the spring. The reason why we don't want you doing this to your bikeis because it createscondensation from putting your warm bike back into a cold environment. Keep repeating this process over a period of time andyou're going to have a condensation buildup that willmixwith the oil, compromisingthe performance comethe spring when you want to get out on the road again. 6. LOOK AFTER YOUR BATTERY During winter months, bike batteries often face challenges due to lower temperatures which slow down the chemical reaction. To keep the battery charged and in good condition, it requires regular use. However, if you're unable to use it, keep a battery pack on hand, readyto boost your battery back to life if necessary. We recommend the Harley-Davidson HOG Booster Portable Battery Pack 1000A, one of our top-sellers, small enough to fit in your saddlebag or backpack and ready to start your motorcycle in seconds.

Wed, 01 Nov 2023 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/new-tiger-900-range-for-2024 NEW TIGER 900 RANGE FOR 2024. Delivering more power, torque, capability and comfort, the new Tiger 900 range from Triumph Motorcycles is raising the bar for middleweight adventure bikes in 2024. The new line-up includes the Tiger 900 GT, GT Pro and Rally Pro, each providing a significant step-up in performance and specification. The Tiger 900s trademark three-cylinder engine has received a major update, including revised engine components, which provides 13% more power than the previous generation, giving 108PS of peak power and a higher peak torque of 90Nm. The new engine also offers greater tractability lower in the rev range. With its T-plane crank and offset firing intervals, the Tiger 900 maintains its characterful and distinctive performance and sound, as well as achieving enhanced performance throughout the whole rev range and up to 9% better fuel economy. All-new active safety features provide more capability across the range, including enhanced braking for better control and reduced stopping distances, and a new emergency deceleration warning system, which activates the hazard lights when braking rapidly and automatically deactivates when you pull away. New marker lights provide a prominent silhouette especially at night and in poor visibility. The new range also features new 7 TFT instruments, with new graphics and menu system and a new USB-C cockpit charger, as well as My Triumph Bluetooth connectivity as standard on all models. The new rider seat is flatter and roomier, with heated seats on both Pro models, designed specifically to provide more long-distance comfort. With 20mm adjustability on the seat height for all models, and an accessory heated low rider seat available which reduces the seat height by a further 20mm. This offers GT models with a potential seat height as low as 800mm, which combined with the narrow stand over width, improves accessibility. A new damped handlebar mounting system creates a more comfortable ride, plus the enhanced handlebar position on the Rally Pro, with the bars 15mm closer, facilitates a more agile ride while sitting or standing. Bringing even more Tiger attitude, the 2024 range has new bodywork across the beak, cockpit and side panels in an integrated design that gives each motorcycle an aggressive, adventure focused stance. New contemporary and dynamic paint schemes and graphics complete the look. A new Akrapovi silencer heads up the comprehensive list of more than 50 accessories, plus customers can choose from four tailored accessory packs, the Performance, Protection, Trekker and Expedition kits. MORE PERFORMANCE Unique to Triumph, the T-plane crank engine with its 1,3,2 firing order and distinctive, raspy triple exhaust bark, has been further developed for the new Tiger 900 range. Engine revisions have resulted in a power increase of 13% taking the Tiger 900 from 95PS to an impressive 108PS. This has been achieved while gaining more torque and tractability at low RPM. The increased power can be felt throughout the rev-range, with a more muscular mid-range and improved acceleration. On the road the new Tiger 900 is agile and easy to ride at low speeds, but with plenty of performance for rapid bursts of acceleration and effortless high-speed touring. In more technical off-road situations, the fine throttle control is intuitive and confidence-inspiring Each model benefits from a specific suspension set-up, designed to meet the needs of the rider for each model. The GT is fitted with high-quality Marzocchi suspension with adjustable compression and rebound damping. With 180mm of fork travel and 170mm of rear wheel travel, the set-up has been tuned specifically for the GT to deliver excellent road handling and long-ride comfort with the capability to tackle off-road terrain. The GT Pro also uses Marzocchi suspension. Adjustable forks are matched to an electronically adjustable rear suspension unit this allows for easy and convenient preload adjustments at the touch of a button to suit riders travelling solo, with a pillion or fully loaded. The Rally Pro uses Showa suspension, offering riders adjustability and a generous 240mm front and 230mm rear wheel travel. This high-quality progressive suspension set-up provides capability and versatility on all roads. Complementing this specific suspension, the road-focused GT and GT Pro have lightweight cast alloy wheels, 19 at the front and 17 at the rear, for the perfect balance between road handling and off-road capability. The Rally Pro uses tubeless spoked wheels with a 21 front for pure off-road performance and features a broad tyre choice. Best in class Brembo Stylema brake calipers are fitted to all three new Tiger 900 models, ensuring effective stopping power and a sensitive lever feel that helps to keep braking powerful, smooth and controlled. MORE CAPABILITY The new Tiger 900 for 2024 features new active safety features to improve visibility on the road, including a new emergency deceleration warning system, which activates the hazard lights when braking rapidly and automatically deactivates when you pull away. In addition, new marker lights provide a prominent silhouette especially at night and in poor visibility. Optimised cornering ABS and Traction Control comes as standard across all three Tiger 900 models. Together with the ride-by-wire throttle, the level of assistance can be altered with four different standard riding modes Road, Rain, Sport and Off-Road. The GT Pro has five modes with the additional Rider Programmable mode allowing fine tuning to suit the riders preferences and riding style. The Rally Pro has six modes with the extra Off-Road Pro mode disabling ABS and traction control completely to allow the Tiger 900 Rally Pros capability to be fully utilised off road. The new enhanced braking system automatically balances front and rear braking effort, working in harmony with the optimised cornering ABS system, to improve stability under hard braking while significantly reducing stopping distances. Triumphs Slip and Assist clutch system is fitted to all three Tiger 900 models, giving light clutch lever action to reduce rider fatigue, especially for congested urban riding conditions and for technical off-road riding. This system also improves rear wheel control under rapid deceleration, assisting with smooth and assured corner entry on a range of surfaces. The Pro models are also equipped with the Triumph Shift Assist system. This allows clutch-less gear changes both up and down the gearbox for seamless acceleration and super-smooth deceleration. The My Triumph Connectivity System is now standard on all Tiger 900 models. Music, phone and turn by turn navigation can all be accessed via the new intuitive and easy-to-read 7 TFT display which is bonded to the glass for a crisp, non-reflective image. Heated grips and seats plus a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) are also standard on both Pro models. MORE ALL-DAY COMFORT The seat has been redesigned for enhanced long-distance comfort whilst retaining the ease of movement for the rider to find their perfect ergonomic position. All models feature 20mm of adjustability, as well as heated seats for both Pro models, for optimum comfort in all weathers. A new damped handlebar mounting system creates a more comfortable ride, while the handlebar position on the Rally Pro has been moved back by 15mm. This slight reduction in reach improves seated comfort while also improving rider control and bike agility in the standing position when riding off-road. Even the shape of the 20-litre fuel tank has been carefully considered to provide the perfect seated riding position without compromising control when standing. An adjustable screen with five settings spanning 50mm, ensures all riders can enjoy excellent high-speed wind protection. MORE ATTITUDE The aggressive Tiger styling and distinctive adventure-focused stance has been revised and sharpened. The new bodywork now has a cleaner, more integrated design that flows beautifully from the beak, through the cockpit and into the side panels. Three striking new paint schemes and graphics are available for each model. The GT and GT Pro are available in Snowdonia White as standard, with two premium paint options, Graphite and Sapphire Black, and Carnival Red and Sapphire Black. The Rally Pro is available in Carbon Black and Sapphire Black, with the option to upgrade to the striking Ash Grey and Intense Orange or Matt Khaki Green and Matt Phantom Black. ACCESSORIES Over 50 accessories and four accessory kits are available for the new Tiger 900 range. The fully loaded Performance accessory pack includes a brand new Akrapovi silencer, the first of a number of new exhaust systems developed in partnership. With a lightweight titanium design with carbon end caps, the new silencer delivers a 1kg weight saving and an even better sound. The pack also includes front and rear scrolling indicators with new marker light feature, and billet machined adventure footpegs. The Protection Pack showcases key practical accessories, lower and upper engine bar kits, tank pad, sump guard, fork protectors, radiator guard and for off-road, a headlight guard kit. The Trekker and Expedition packs provide two distinct, tailored luggage options for extended touring or off-road adventures. ON THE ROAD Triumphs Chief Product Officer Steve Sargent said: The Tiger 900 already has an excellent reputation as an award-winner and rally competitor, enjoying success against production motorcycles as well as purpose-built off-road machines. In fact, the Tiger 900 Rally Pro was used by World Enduro Champion Ivn Cervantes, securing champion titles at the Baja Aragn Rally, 1000 Dunas Raid and Bassela Enduro in 2022. With such an impressive pedigree, we needed to set ourselves a high target to improve the new Tiger 900. We were focused on raising the game in the middleweight category all over again. As a result, weve delivered a significant step-up, with more performance, more capability, more all-day comfort, and an aggressive style and poise. In the UK, the Tiger 900 GT will start from 12,195 OTR, the Tiger 900 GT Pro from 13,895 OTR, and the Tiger 900 Rally Pro from 14,495 OTR. Orders can be placed now at Triumph dealers, with bikes available for delivery from early 2024. Tue, 31 Oct 2023 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/the-new-bmw-m-1000-xr THE NEW BMW M 1000 XR The new BMW M 1000 XR: the long-distance sports bike designed to meet the highest demands, from dynamic riding on country roads to long-distance touring and racing. At the end of 2018, BMW Motorrad already introduced the successful M model range strategy for motorcycles and has been offering M special equipment and M performance parts ever since. The new BMW M 1000 XR is the third M model from BMW Motorrad to celebrate its world premiere, following the M 1000 RR superbike and the dynamic M 1000 R roadster: The long-distance sports bike M 1000 XR. ride stability. In the centenary year of BMW Motorrad, the dynamic philosophy of the world's most powerful letter is also applied to the new M XR: M is synonymous worldwide with racing success and the fascination of high-performance BMW models and is aimed at customers with particularly high demands for performance, exclusivity and individuality. With an engine output of 148 kW (201 hp), a DIN empty weight of only 223 kg and suspension technology and aerodynamics designed equally for high-performance country road use, extended long-distance trips and fast laps on the race track, the new M XR, as the lightest representative of this crossover segment, opens up dynamic driving dimensions previously reserved for thoroughbred superbikes. Powerful M XR 4-cylinder based on the RR engine. Even more peak power, higher torque and increased thrust and traction thanks to shorter secondary and gear ratios for maximum riding pleasure on country roads and race tracks. The new M XR features a modified water-cooled 4-cylinder in-line engine based on the power unit of the S 1000 RR. Its peak power is 148 kW (201 hp) at 12,750 rpm, 23 kW (31 hp) more than in the new S 1000 XR. The maximum torque of 113 Nm is reached at 11,000 rpm. The maximum engine speed of the M XR is 14,600 rpm. Increased rear wheel pulling power in all gears is also provided by a shorter secondary gear ratio through the use of a sprocket with now 47 teeth (S 1000 XR: 45 teeth). In addition, the gear ratios of the 4th, 5th and 6th gear are now shorter compared to the S 1000 XR, which also benefits traction at the rear wheel, acceleration and pulling power. M winglets and wind deflectors: Brake later, reduce wheelies, and accelerate earlier thanks to aerodynamic downforce. In addition to drive and suspension technology, aerodynamics was also a key item in the specifications for developing the M XR. The new M XR was given winglets in the area of the front side panels with the aim of achieving even faster lap times on the race track and the best possible riding stability at high speeds, From a speed of about 100 km/h, they provide an increase in front wheel load thanks to the aerodynamic downforce generated. It increases by approx. 12 kg at 220 km/h. Chassis trimmed for performance-oriented riding on country roads and race tracks with Dynamic Damping Control (DDC), adjustable spring base, adjustable steering damper, milled-over handlebar clamp and more front-oriented tubular handlebar with laser-etched "BMW M XR" lettering. The suspension and chassis of the new M XR are based on the S 1000 XR with the aluminium bridge frame as the centrepiece. The M XR features upside-down forks with a 45 mm slide tube diameter at the front. The forks are equipped with so-called closed cartridge inserts, separate hydraulic piston-cylinder systems. Another new feature of the M XR is the additional adjustability of the fork's spring base in conjunction with the standard Dynamic Damping Control (DDC) suspension strut. In addition, the forks of the M XR feature an upper fork bridge with an elaborately milled-over handlebar clamp as well as a more front-oriented black aluminium tubular handlebar with lasered "BMW M 1000 XR" lettering. The handlebar end mirrors available as an option ex works are also new on the M XR. The fork legs have also been modified and are now designed to accommodate the new M brake callipers. Another new element of the M XR is the adjustable steering damper. M brakes with radial hand brake pump and lightweight forged aluminium wheels for optimum riding dynamics on the race track and in performance mode. Exclusive M Carbon wheels are available as part of the M Competition package or as an individual option. After the M 1000 RR and the M 1000 R, the new M XR is the third BMW motorcycle to feature an M brake. It was developed directly using the experience gained with the racing brakes on BMW Motorrad factory racing machines in the Superbike World Championship. The M brake callipers feature a blue anodised coating in conjunction with the famous M logo. Together with two 320 mm brake discs of 5 mm thickness and black anodised aluminium brake disc carriers, the brake system equipped with a new radial hand brake pump currently marks the pinnacle of brake development in the field of road-legal systems. The new M XR is already equipped with very lightweight forged aluminium wheels as standard. As part of the M Competition package, the exclusive M Carbon wheels are available with newly designed tapes on the rim. Brake Slide Assist - assists the rider when brake drifting. The Brake Slide Assist function is an important and very helpful innovation, especially for race track riders. It allows the rider to brake drift into corners with a constant slide. Instrument cluster with perfectly readable 6.5-inch TFT display, new display of the rev counter (red area) and OBD interface for M GPS Datalogger and M GPS Laptrigger that can be used via unlock code. The instrument cluster of the new M XR corresponds to the design of the M RR and also offers the M start-up animation. The extended display of the red speed range is a new feature. As optional equipment, comprehensive data material for using the M GPS Laptrigger and the M GPS Datalogger (Original BMW Motorrad Accessories) can be provided by means of an unlock code via the OBD interface of the instrument cluster. M Design and the dynamic design of the M XR signal pure performance and sportiness. Even more than the S 1000 XR, the new M XR with its optimised chassis technology and the most powerful engine to date in a dynamic long-distance sports bike from BMW Motorrad is uncompromisingly designed for sporty riding - whether on country roads, long-distance tours or on the race track. M XR - there is currently no better performing and lighter vehicle in this crossover segment. The proportions of the M XR are ultra-compact and powerful. Three-dimensional surfaces create excitement and a dynamic look. Slim, sleek and extremely aggressive, the M XR's front end is unmistakable with its new M winglets, designed as quadruple wings. The performance-oriented look of the new M XR is also reflected in the colour concept, with the body in Black combined with the M colours Light Blue, Dark Blue and Red. Uncompromising design and technology: The M XR featuring the M Competition Package. If the new M XR in standard trim is still not enough for you, the M Competition Package offers a fascinating mix of refined components for the racing technology gourmet and the aesthetically minded rider alike. In addition, this makes the new M XR another 3 kg lighter. The M Competition Package includes M Carbon wheels, M Carbon parts such as rear wheel cover with integrated chain guard, side panels, front wheel cover, inner cover and ignition/steering lock cover as well as a fully adjustable M rider footrest system, passenger footrests and the MGPS Laptrigger (unlock code). Thu, 26 Oct 2023 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/bmw-motorrad-presents-the-new-s-1000-xr Improved performance, optimised ergonomics, sleeker design, and more standard and optional features. BMW Motorrad is introducing the new S 1000 XR, an enhanced version of the successful long-distance sports bike and multiple test winner. Increased engine power, improved ergonomics, design refinements, and expanded standard features define the model's upgrades. The reworked in-line 4-cylinder engine now delivers even more impressive performance, with a flow-optimised geometry for the intake channels and a power output of 125 kW (170 hp). The new S 1000 XR still shares its in-line 4-cylinder engine with theS 1000 RR, providing a smooth and powerful torque delivery and a harmonious power characteristic that contributes to excellent rideability. Compared to the predecessor model, the engine power has been increased by 4 kW (5 hp) to now 125 kW (170 hp) at an unchanged nominal engine speed of 11,000 rpm. The main reasons for the performance increase are a flow-optimised geometry of the intake channels and a customised mapping. The maximum torque generated is still 114 Nm at 9,250 rpm. Improved ergonomics thanks to new seat and even sportier rear section. In order to provide even more freedom of movement, especially during high-performance riding on country roads and race tracks, the seat of the long-distance sports bike has been completely redesigned. It now offers an extra 10 mm of seat height (850 mm) and provides more space for the buttocks by increasing the usable length and width of the seat, allowing for better adjustment of the seating position depending on the riding conditions. The improved ergonomics make it easier for riders to manoeuvre the S 1000 XR on the road or on the race track, providing even better control. A total of three different seat heights are available. The new S 1000 XR also benefits from redesigned elements in its design. The rear section now features new side panels and air intakes inspired by motorsports, giving it a more dynamic look. Additionally, the radiator trim now has a textured surface, and the previously black-coloured beak fender is now painted in body colour. Extended range of standard equipment and new optional extras / Original BMW Motorrad Accessories. The new S 1000 XR comes with an expanded standard equipment list. As part of the standard equipment, Headlight Pro provides additional safety during night-time rides with its adaptive turning light. The rider benefits from improved road illumination in corners. The package also includes Daytime Running Lights (DRL) for better vehicle recognition during the day. Keyless Ride and a 12 Ah capacity battery are now standard features. Additionally, the new BMW S 1000 XR is equipped with a USB charging option as standard. Other updates include the availability of the E-Call feature in the USA, the option to equip the S 1000 XR with the optional M GPS Laptrigger, and the availability of M Carbon wheels as a new optional extra or as Original BMW Motorcycle accessories. Three new attractive colour options. Three new colour options reflect the dynamic character of the new BMW S 1000 XR. Blackstorm metallic Gravityblue metallic Lightwhite solid paint/Motorsport (in conjunction with the M package and M seat). The key innovations of the new BMW S 1000 XR: Engine power has been increased by 4 kW (5 hp) to now125 kW (170 hp) at 11,000 rpm (previously 121 kW (165 hp)). The intake channels have been modified. The optimised Shift Assistant Pro ensures even higher precision when shifting. Improved ergonomics and freedom of movement with a redesigned seat (850 mm seat height instead of the previous 840 mm). The spring strut has been optimised to provide a more sensitive and comfortable ride. The rear section has a new, sportier design with new side panels and air intakes inspired by motorsports. The handlebar clamp has been redesigned. The front beak is now painted in the body colour. The radiator cover has a new, textured surface. New battery with 12 Ah capacity instead of the previous 9 Ah. M Carbon wheels available as optional equipment or Original BMW Motorrad Accessories. Keyless Ride is standard. USB charging port is standard. Headlight Pro is standard. E-Call now also available for the USA. Use of the M GPS Laptrigger is possible.

Fri, 06 Oct 2023 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/the-2024-scrambler-1200-lineup THE 2024 SCRAMBLER 1200 LINEUP Triumph is launching its Scrambler line-up for 2024, with the introduction of the new, more accessible Scrambler 1200 X, and an enhanced top-specification Scrambler 1200 XE. Featuring Triumphs high-power 1200cc Bonneville engine with torque-rich performance, off-road ready 21-inch front wheel and Triumphs premium quality and finish, the two new models look set to raise the bar even higher for performance and style in the Scrambler category. The new Scrambler 1200 X delivers the same exceptional core capability, commanding riding position, and torque-rich performance Scrambler customers love, combined with a generous specification of equipment and technology. Built to be more accessible, the Scrambler 1200 X has a seat height of 820mm, reducing to 795mm with the accessory low seat, a generous dedicated specification that offers exceptional functionality at a more competitive price and a 10,000mile (16,000km) service interval to lower the cost of ownership. The cool and capable Scrambler 1200 XE also hits the road in the new year sporting updates including latest-generation Brembo Stylema calipers, new suspension with enhanced adjustability, enhanced styling details and improved touring capability. Steve Sargent, Chief Product Officer said: Built for both on-road and off-road adventures, the new Scrambler 1200 XE sets an even higher bar for performance, capability, and modern classic style. The Scrambler 1200 X is a new choice for our customers, optimised to deliver the specification riders have asked for, with a lower seat height, even more competitive pricing, and an even better road ride than the previous Scrambler 1200 XC. THRILLING PERFORMANCE Both models sport the same 1200cc Bonneville twin engine and torque-rich Scrambler tune with a new, single 50mm throttle body and revised exhaust headers, delivering improved flow and a broader spread of torque through the upper rev-range, from 5,000 RPM through to the redline. The 2024 models have also been precisely tuned to deliver the perfect balance of power delivery for both on and off-road riding. Peak power now arrives slightly earlier in the rev range, reaching 90 PS at 7,000 RPM, with peak torque of 110 Nm also arriving earlier, at 4,250 RPM. The unmistakable high-specification twin-exhaust system is completed by brushed stainless steel silencers, delivering that trademark deep and characterful Scrambler tone. PREMIUM SPECIFICATION Both variants share the same dedicated tubular steel Scrambler frame, as well as high specification side-laced stainless steel wire spoked wheels with lightweight and durable aluminium rims. The two models provide key ergonomic differences, including different handlebar designs, with the XE measuring 65mm wider than the X ensuring greater control on more challenging off-road terrain. Reversible risers enable riders to adjust the handlebar position, and the XE also features a removable spacer, for a 10mm height adjustment. Expanding ergonomics even further, the XE also boasts adjustable foot controls to suit a variety of riding styles and footwear. Both bikes feature a twin-sided, premium cast aluminium swing arm. At 579mm, the XE has a 32mm longer swingarm and a longer wheelbase than the X, enhancing control and confidence on difficult off-road terrain, while the Xs shorter wheelbase contributes to an agile and responsive road-ride. These bikes are also equipped with top of the range Metzeler tyres. The X benefits from the road-focused, dual-purpose Karoo Street, while the XE variant runs on Metzeler Tourance, contributing to its unparalleled balance of road and off-road capability. For even more extreme off-road capability, the Triumph-approved Michelin Anakee Wild is the tyre of choice. Both models are kitted out with high specification suspension. The X variant features road biased MarzocchiTM 45mm cartridge forks at the front and suspension units supporting at the rear. The rear suspension units come with piggy-back reservoirs and adjustable preload, allowing customers to fine tune their riding experience on the road and beyond. The XE has a more off-road focused setup, with optimised MarzocchiTM 45mm forks and premium, twin spring MarzocchiTM suspension units which are fully adjustable and have more incrementality in adjustment for compression and rebound, giving even greater control. This optimised suspension provides a significant 250mm of wheel travel front and rear for unparalleled off-road capability and ground clearance. STATE OF THE ART EQUIPMENT When it comes to braking, both models feature state of the art equipment for guaranteed efficiency across road and dirt. The XE boasts powerful latest generation BremboTM Stylema radial Monoblock front callipers with twin 320mm floating discs, providing class-leading braking performance. While the front is taken care of, the rear is held down by a 255mm disk with a Nissin caliper, further maximising braking performance. The X model features twin 310mm floating front discs, with Nissin twin-piston axial callipers. Meanwhile, the rear is supported by a 255mm rear disc and a Nissin floating brake caliper, to deliver a confident braking performance on the road. The front brake lever position can also be adjusted to the riders preference on both models. FEATURING NEW AND IMPROVED RIDER-FOCUSED TECHNOLOGY The Scrambler X and XE both feature optimised cornering ABS and optimised cornering traction control, regulating intervention to deliver and maintain optimum traction at any lean angle. Five rider modes are available for the Scrambler 1200 X, each with their own dedicated throttle response and specific ABS and traction control settings. Riders can choose from Sport, Road, Rain, Off-Road and Rider Configurable, while the XE also has Off-Road Pro to allow the experienced rider complete uninterrupted control for the most challenging off-road riding. Greater riding stability is achieved thanks to a high specification Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) which has been developed in conjunction with Continental. This system enables the optimisation of cornering ABS and Traction control, automatically selecting the correct setting by measuring roll, pitch, yaw, and acceleration rates to calculate lean angle. With particular focus on enhancing the overall riding experience, the X and XE are both equipped with a torque assist clutch. The Scrambler 1200 XE features integrated and customisable full colour TFT instruments. Two minimal and stylish information layout design themes are available, each with a further three options to change the level of information displayed. The choice between a high or low contrast display is also available, as well as personalised start up screen to make the latest Scrambler XE feel more like your own. The Scrambler 1200 X features a dedicated hybrid multi-function LCD/TFT display, incorporated in an elegantly styled circular instrument dial. This compact, and minimal display can be easily read at a UNMISTAKABLE SCRAMBLER CUSTOM STYLE Both models feature the key elements that make the Scrambler simply unmistakable, from their distinctive silhouettes to the signature high-level twin exhaust design and beautifully sculpted fuel tank. Both models feature a classic one-piece ribbed bench seat, in black for the XE and brown for the X and both boast enhanced styling details in the form of a new slimline indicator design and compact taillight housing. The bikes are complete with a variety of striking finishes and details, including sculpted side panels with brushed aluminium Scrambler 1200 badge, the iconic Triumph triangle tank badge, a brushed aluminium Monza-style filler cap and brushed stainless strap. The XE is finished with brushed aluminium mudguards, while the X features high quality painted mudguards. There are three unique colour schemes available for each model. The Scrambler 1200 XE will be available in contemporary Phantom Black & Storm Grey, which features red accents, the bold new Baja Orange & Phantom Black, or ever-popular Sapphire Black. The Scrambler 1200 X is available in rich Carnival Red, cool Ash Grey, or classic Sapphire Black. TAILOR YOUR SCRAMBLER More than 70 genuine accessories are available to bring an even greater touring capability, ranging from heated grips, 35 litre tail bag and high Dakar screen, to high-level front mudguard, handlebar brace and stainless-steel engine bars. The complete rugged luggage system now offers 102 litres of total stowage capacity. THE ORIGINAL SCRAMBLERS AND TODAYS SCRAMBLER SCENE The new Scrambler 1200 line-up can trace its roots directly back to the original Scrambler scene of the early 1950s, where Triumph played a pivotal role and set the template for what made a Scrambler great. Building the leading bikes of the day, stripped back with straight-through twin pipes fitted high or low slung and chopped off Triumphs were the original desert sleds. These inspired the worlds first production scramblers, with the Bonneville T-120TT and the TR6SC. In 2006, with the launch of the very first modern era Scrambler, Triumph again delivered the genesis of a new category. This triggered the world of Scramblers we see today and a whole new global fan base, from urban riders to movie stars, even featuring in the latest Bond film, No Time to Die. ON THE ROAD The Scrambler 1200 X will start from 11,895 OTR, and the Scrambler 1200 XE will start from 13,295 OTR. Orders can be placed now at Triumph dealers, with bikes arriving for retail from January 2024.

Fri, 29 Sep 2023 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/the-new-bmw-r-1300-gs THE NEW BMW R 1300 GS The new BMW R 1300 GS: Next level GS featuring new boxer engine and new suspension, with significantly reduced weight and increased GS competence all round. BMW Motorrad established the new segment of touring enduros more than four decades ago with the R 80 G/S. The BMW GS with boxer engine has been the undisputed leader of the competitive field ever since. To ensure this remains the case in the future, BMW Motorrad has opted for an almost completely new design for the new R 1300 GS, with an impressive weight saving of 12 kg compared to the previous model. The centrepiece is once again the legendary two-cylinder boxer engine. Its new design is more compact than ever before thanks to a gearbox located under the engine and a new camshaft drive arrangement. From exactly 1 300 cc it produces an output of 107 kW (145 hp) at 7 750 rpm, developing a maximum torque of 149 Nm at 6 500 rpm. This makes it by far the most powerful BMW boxer engine ever to be produced in series. At the centre of the new suspension is the sheet metal shell main frame made of steel, which in addition to being significantly optimised in terms of installation space also offers higher levels of stiffness than the predecessor model. For the rear frame, the previous tubular steel structure has now been replaced with a die-cast aluminium construction. The new EVO Telelever front wheel guide with flex element and the revised EVO Paralever rear wheel guide also provide even greater steering precision and ride stability. New electronic Dynamic Suspension Adjustment (DSA) as optional equipment ex works, with dynamic adaptation of the damping and spring rate, and also load compensation. The previous Dynamic ESA Next Generation electronic suspension itself provided a high level of ride safety and riding fun on a wide variety of terrains with its dynamic adjustment of the damping and adjustable spring rest at the rear. The new electronic Dynamic Suspension Adjustment (DSA) now goes one step further, combining the dynamic adjustment of the front and rear damping with a corresponding adjustment of the spring rate (spring stiffness) depending on the selected riding mode, riding condition and manoeuvres. The automatic adjustment of the spring rest ensures load compensation. This makes for an even more thrilling riding experience on all surfaces. Whether solo, in pairs or with bulky luggage DSA ensures an even higher level of ride safety, performance and comfort. Adaptive vehicle height control and sports suspension as optional equipment ex works. Exclusively in conjunction with DSA as optional equipment ex works, two further items of optional equipment are available for the suspension of the new R 1300 GS: the new adaptive vehicle height control and the sports suspension. With adaptive vehicle height control, the new R 1300 GS offers fully automatic adjustment of the vehicle height depending on the operating condition, thereby ensuring the greatest possible comfort without having to compromise on riding dynamics and banking freedom. With 20 mm more spring travel at the front and rear and an optional athletically firm sports suspension specially developed for the GS, off-road riders are well catered for here. Four riding modes now standard. Enduro riding mode for an enhanced off-road riding experience. Even in standard trim, the new R 1300 GS now has four rather than three riding modes for adaptation to individual rider preferences. The Rain and Road riding modes allow riding characteristics to be adapted to most road conditions. With the Eco riding mode it is possible to achieve the maximum range on a single tank of fuel, while the additional riding mode Enduro enables an enhanced riding experience off the beaten track with a specific set-up for off-road use. Matrix LED headlamps with innovative design as standard, state-of-the-art LED light units all round with turn indicators integrated in the hand protectors and Headlight Pro as optional equipment ex works. BMW Motorrad is regarded as the pioneer par excellence when it comes to motorcycling safety and related innovations. Accordingly, the new R 1300 GS offers a new, very small full LED headlamp with a novel, distinctive light icon as standard. This illuminates the road with a hitherto unrivalled clarity, thereby ensuring even better perception in traffic. The light unit consists of two LED units for low and high beam along with four additional LED units for the daytime running light and the side light. State-of-the-art LED light units with newly designed LED turn indicators integrated in the hand protectors at the front, function-integrated at the rear round off the lighting concept of the new R 1300 GS. With the optional equipment item Headlight Pro, the beam of the standard full LED headlamp turns into the bend according to the banking position. In this way, the bend is almost fully illuminated because the light moves to where the motorcycle is heading. Riding Assistant with Active Cruise Control (ACC), Front Collision Warning (FCW) and Lane Change Warning (SWW) for safe and convenient motorcycling. The new BMW R 1300 GS features the new Riding Assistant option, consisting of the components Active Cruise Control (ACC), Front Collision Warning (FCW) and Lane Change Warning (SWW). Active Cruise Control (ACC) with integrated distance control can be used to set the desired riding speed as well as the distance to the vehicle in front. Front Collision Warning (FCW) with brake intervention is designed to prevent collisions and help reduce the severity of accidents, while Lane Change Warning monitors the lanes to the left and right and can help ensure a safe lane change while supporting use of the rear mirror. The new R 1300 GS: the very highest level of touring and off-road expertise in an attractive basic variant along with the variants Triple Black, GS Trophy and Option 719 Tramuntana. The new R 1300 GS features an entirely new design which is based on the traditional GS flyline while at the same time reflecting extreme compactness and significant weight reduction. With a new aluminium fuel tank that has a much flatter ramp than on the predecessor models, the flyline is largely responsible for the very dynamic, light and accessible appearance of the new R 1300 GS. Here it was also possible to add a very sporty and dynamic accentuation by means of the continuous texture in the fuel tank centre cover. The basic variant of the new BMW R 1300 GS perfectly embodies what the BMW Motorrad development team has endowed the GS legend with: compact arrangement of the components, high functionality of the equipment and everything focused on the essentials. In Lightwhite solid paint and in conjunction with its sharply drawn lines and very clean appearance, the new R 1300 GS has a muscular appearance and embodies the boxer GS theme in pristine style. TripleBlack is a model variant of the boxer GS that has been popular for many years. In this colour scheme, the new BMW R 1300 GS has a masculine attitude combined with exclusive surfaces. The basic finish Racingblue metallic sets the tone for the model variant GS Trophy. With red and white tapes and inscriptions combined with a rear frame coated in white metallic matt, the GS Trophy stands for the very highest level of performance and sporty off-road riding. The new R 1300 GS shows its exclusive and technically sophisticated side in the model variant Option 719 Tramuntana. This combines cross-spoke wheels in gold with a high-quality paint finish in Aurelius Green metallic and sophisticated milled aluminium parts.

This time he pushed thesuperb Pan America one step further on a history-filledjourney to Normandy, France. Day 1 of the D-Day Tour. A 2 a.m. start to catch the 7 a.m. ferry from Portsmouth to Cherbourg, France. Approx. 180 miles, 3 hours saddle time, and less than a tank of fuel, the fully laden bike and I complete the journey in one hit. As Ive said before this bike is exceptionally comfortable and economical. Morning mist brings a chill to the air but my Harley riding gear did its job in keepingme nice and warm. The auxiliary LED fog/high beam lights were superb with a vast amount of illumination when I needed it. Something that also workedvery well is the light above the main headlamp, an adaptive light, coming on when I leaned into a corner, throwing some extra brightness to the left or right, a nice touch. Met by brilliant weather and brilliant roads, I arrived at the accommodation in historic Sainte Mere glise at 11:30 French time. Time to unpack and settle in for the week. Lots to see and do. Signing off for now. Catch up soon! Mike. Day 2 of the D-Day Tour. Before heading off on the bike, I took a quick wander around Sainte Mere glise, hit with the realisation I was surrounded by history. Ive added some wartime photos next to my own to give you some idea of what Im talking about. From here, its onto Sainte Marie du Mont and Utah Beach. Wherever I turned I was riding through towns and villages where I could only imagine events of the past. On the way back I passed a memorial to Captain Winters, leader of Easy Company of the 101st Airborne (made famous by the Band of Brothers television series), and also paid a visit to Dead Mans Corner in Carentan-les-Marais. The bike? The bike is just superb, she hasnt missed a beat. Dealing with 30-degree heat and lots of stop-starts, as I didnt want to miss anything, Im still yet to put any fuel in from filling up back in Portsmouth. I changed the instrument panel to km/h easily via the settings menu and the centre stand was a godsend, as was the light weight of the machine on gravel car park surfaces, its so easy to manoeuvre. THE bike to do this tour on. What else to say? A fantastic humbling experience so far. Omaha Beach and the Normandy American Military Cemetery tomorrow. Signing off for now. Mike. Day 3 of the D-Day Tour. En route to Omaha Beach, the area is filled with museums, monuments, and battle-worn equipment, proving equally fascinating yet sobering. I made it toOmaha. As with Utah, Gold, Juno, and Sword, it was a surreal experiencerealising I was on the same beach as those who landed in hell on 6th June 1944, making it possible for those beachgoers today to enjoy making sandcastles and eat their ice cream cones. Then the Normandy American Cemetery. Almost 10000 laid to rest. No words, Ill let the pictures speak for themselves. The Harley-Davidson Pan America has been flawless. Nuff said.Bye for now! Mike. Day 4 of the D-Day Tour. A leisurely ride around Normandy takes me to a couple of sites off the beaten track. First stop, Brecourt Manor, the site of one of the most significant battles in the war, where the men of Easy Company took out 3 guns(again made famous by Band of Brothers), and the execution of this mission is still used as a training tool today. From there I moved on to Marmion Farm, used as a base for the Allied soldiers. Standing empty today it still gives off a sense of what happened here.A couple of museumvisits and Harley-Davidson WLAs are included in the exhibits. Approximately 90,000 of these motorcycles were made and the Liberator is honoured all across Normandy in all manor of gifts and collectibles. Harley-Davidsons contribution to the war effort has made it possible to tour the very same area on this Harley-Davidson Pan America 80 years later. I find that amazing. Tomorrow we visit Pegasus Bridge. Au revoir for now. Mike. Day 5 of the D-Day Tour. Today I rode a good hour or so to visit the Merville Battery near Caen. This is where the British Parachute regiment disarmed a series of huge guns firing onto Sword and Junobeaches. Initially, 700 men were dropped in, of those, only 150 were able to take on the mission and only 75 made it out alive. Unbelievable acts of courage and bravery. A beautifully restored Dakota aircraft lay on display. From there its onto Pegasus Bridge and the museum there. Well worth a visit if youre over here and the cafe to the side, still run by the same family as in WW2 does a cracking cuppa! Thanks to those who recommended it. A great end to a great tour. So, a fantastic week of motorcycle touring and the Pan America hasnt missed a beat, comfortable, economical, very capable, and with enough storage to carry all the souvenirs I dont need! If youre thinking of going touring then do it! And do it on a Harley-Davidson Pan America. Its absolutely superb and the perfect tool for the job. If you have any questions about the trip or the bike itself, get in touch on social mediaor pop into the dealershipand comesay hello. Now...where to go next???? See you soon. Mike. D-DayTourEnd and Final Thoughts. So, 7 days and 820 miles later, the D-Day tour is Complete. Firstly, Normandy; one of the most enjoyable, humbling, surreal experiences of my life. No matter what WW2 books you read, what documentaries or movies you watch, you will never get a sense of the bravery and sacrifice that was made by those involved 80 years ago until you are there, standing in the same countryside, same towns, and on the same beaches. You MUST go. Fantastic empty roads provide some of the best riding too. Secondly, the Harley-Davidson Pan America; Still undeservedly tarnished by its initial launch software gremlins, this bike performed flawlessly. Comfortable: 3 hours nonstop saddle time with no problem and the gear quick shifter is a must. Economical: 250+ mile tank range when full. Powerful: 150bhp means a fully laden bike easily cruises at motorway speeds and still has enough grunt to get you out of trouble if needed. Luggage: Easily catered for me, a week's worth of gear, and still enough room for some purchases in France. Visibility: Superb, elevated seat position provides excellent viewing and the mirrors work how they should. The adaptive headlight works a treat and the auxiliary lights literally are the difference between night and day. Weight: Even fully loaded this bike is easy to manoeuvre on uneven or rough terrain and the centre stand provides great stability when used. Height: Even with my 30'' inside leg, both feet are flat on the floor when stationary, the bike is well balanced with complete rider confidence at slower speeds. Other rider aids such as full infotainment TFT screen, cruise control, ride modes, adjustable screen, hand guards, heated grips, and USB charging just add to the riding pleasure, I genuinely cannot speak highly enough of this bike. Remember, this was not a sponsored ride or review, it was a trip I paid for with my own buck, and yes, I wanted to prove this motorcycle is all its advertised to be, an adventure tourer... and it did 100%. Don't believe me? Come and ride the bike itself at Newmarket Harley-Davidson, you won't be disappointed, I guarantee it. Mike.

Fri, 18 Aug 2023 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/james-g-310-gs-grand-adventure JAMES' G 310 GS GRAND ADVENTURE. This week hear all about what the BMW G 310 GS is capable of as James shares his story. Since collecting his brand-new motorcycle from us just a few weeks ago he has done over 4,000 miles and taken on the sort of mammoth trip most wouldn't attempt on a G 310 GS. But how did he get on? Find outbelow... James' story started on 23May, buying his brand-new BMW G 310 GS from LIND Motorrad Welwyn Garden City. Four days were spent running it in and thanks to the team we managed to get Jamessqueezed in for his first service before going down to Devon and preparing himself for around 800 to 1000 miles. Hethen attended the Adventure Bike Rider Festival at Ragley Hall Estate in June, considered the world's greatest celebration of adventure motorcycling. Now things get serious... James, accompanied by a group of 22, headed from Newhaven, on the 4 July for a 10-day round trip riding through France to northern Italy and eventually taking part in the Stella Alpina Rally; the highest possible off-road track in the Alps, 3,009m above sea level up the Colle del Sommeiller. Mostly keeping off motorways so they could enjoy proper roads, the Alps didn't disappoint in their stunning beauty. The little GS made it up the pass and back down to the summit with no problems and James was glad he'd taken the precaution of fitting a Rally Raid sump and engine guard as it was extremely rocky! James crossed his way back home via as many mountain roads as he could take in and eventually reached the French seaport of Dieppe for his journey home. After being back home for just one day, he was off again for six days. His first stop was in Derbyshire for the night followed by trips through the Yorkshire Dales & County Durham ending with a night in Cumbria. The adventure didn't end there though as James headed further north, across the causeway to the Holy Island of Lindisfarne before spending a night on the Scottish border. The next day James dropped down to Kielder Forest, the largest man-made woodland in England, taking the gravel road through the middle. Heading further south he reached the Lake District to experience the Hardknott Pass and spend a night in the market town of Kendal. The following morning he took a short ride to Heysham where he rode the Ferry to the Isle of Man for two nights. After completing a lap of the rugged coastline and visiting Murray's Motorcycle Museum (James says it's a must-see!) he started the final journey home via Liverpool. Aftervisiting a good mate South of Wigan for a cuppa and a chat James made his final trip back to Hertfordshire. By now his G 310 GS has done4,228 miles, all experienced in three months. As for James, he had this to say about histrusty motorcycle: "The little GS was faultless. On the longest day in the saddle we covered over 300 mile's and I have to say, the bike handled it all easily. Super comfortable and more capable than you may think. Bigger isn't always better!" If you're interested in trying out a BMW G 310 GS yourself and seeing just what it's truly capable of, or want to start your own epic adventure, get in touch today at LIND Motorrad Welwyn Garden City or Norwich!

With class-leading specification, the technology and capability of the Tiger 900, these two fresh new looks preserve the ultimate feel of aggression and attitude, while also adding that race-ready edge. Redefine adventure with the Tiger 900 Aragn Editions In July 2022, Ivn Cervantes secured victory in the Baja Aragn, one of the most demanding races known to two wheels. One year on, Triumph celebrates this stand-out performance with the launch of the Tiger 900 Rally Aragn and the Tiger 900 GT Aragn. Available in 2023 only, these special editions each feature unique liveries and specification. Piloting a Tiger 900 Rally Pro, Cervantes dominated the 450km race, crossing the line an impressive 1 hour and 6 minutes ahead of his rivals, demonstrating the Tigers ability to endure some of the harshest terrain at an elite level of competition.

The highest displacement powertrain ever to be factory-installed on a Harley-Davidson Touring motorcycle, the Milwaukee-Eight VVT 121 engine features liquid-cooled cylinder heads, variable valve timing (VVT), and a new intake tract. The increased displacement produces more power and torque than the Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine, while VVT broadens the overall powerband and improves fuel economy. Seamlessly integrated into the CVO Street Glide design, the full LED lighting package optimises visibility, integrates turn signals and accentuates the lines of the batwing fairing, creating a distinctive look thats instantly recognisable, day or night. The CVO Street Glide is fitted with 19 front and 18 rear combo cast laced wheels and equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). A final extension of the aggressive lines and athletic build of the fairing and fuel tank, the saddlebags increase overall luggage volume capacity and complete the aggressive stance of the CVO Street Glide. 2023 Harley-Davidson CVO Road Glide The pinnacle, unleashed by H-D Custom Vehicle Operations... Loaded with luxury and long-haul comfort, head-turning style, and power that always satisfies. Premium audio, heated seats and grips, and the precise handling of the aerodynamic fairing make this motorcycle the ultimate Harley-Davidson Touring machine. Born from the rich lineage that came before it and sculpted by wind tunnel, every surface of the CVO Road Glide has been reimagined and refined, creating a seamless visual flow from the tip of the front fender through to the tail of the rear saddlebags. The CVO Road Glides 22.7 litre tear-drop fuel tank is long and lean with a tailored profile and distinct beveled edge. Premium seat with a new shape coupled with wider, flatter handlebars and adjustable levers help optimise the rider triangle for enhanced comfort and reduced fatigue during long rides.

Wed, 03 May 2023 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/mikes-pan-america-peaks-tour MIKE'S PAN AMERICA PEAKS TOUR Last week, Mikefrom Newmarket Harley-Davidson made the time for an "extended test ride" of the Pan America with an adventure, to, around, and from the Peak District. On an 800-mile trip to really see just what Harley's adventure bike is all about, readMike's experience below and all his thoughts from his first-ever trip on the bike. Day 1 of the Peaks Tour. Arrival. After a 3 and a bit hour ride we arrive at our hotel for the 4 days. My first ride of the Pan America and my initial thoughts? Impressive. Plenty of useable power, it's extremely comfortable and ergonomically excellent. The Panniers are like the Tardis (for those who know what that is) easily holding enough baggage for the trip, and despite being approx. 10 inches wider than an Ultra, traffic filtering was a breeze. At steady motorway speeds, the bike also delivered impressive fuel usage, 151 miles on just over half a tank with 111 miles still available. This is despite being fully Laden with baggage and my 17 stone *cough*frame.(my diet starts next week). Looking forward to chucking this thing about over the next few days. Signing off for now; Mike. Day 2 of the Peaks Tour. A total of 7 hours in the saddle discovering some of Britain's finest roads. With a mixture of sweeping fast and tight 180-degree bends, steep inclines, and narrow path-like tracks, the Pan took it all in her stride. Handling is superb and even with panniers, directional change at all speeds is pinpoint. An extremely light clutch made gear changes a breeze and the optional quick shifter is a must, changing up is silky smooth. Extremely enjoyable riding thus far.Despite literally all day out on the bike, no body fatigue nor an aching posterior, this bike is comfortable! Tomorrowthe infamous cat and fiddle and snakes pass roads. Catch up then. Over and out. Mike. Day 3 of the Peaks Tour. It starts off wet, very wet, but that doesnt stop our journey to ride the infamous Cat & Fiddle road and then onto Snakes Pass!Heading off from Matlock across country to Buxton, I use rain mode on the bike which noticeably softens the throttle response and reduces power delivery, useful on soaked muddy roads. A short coffee break at the Cat and Fiddle pub and it begins to brighten up. My first time riding this 10.2-mile stretch of road and one word springs to mind; EPIC! A series of twisty banked cambered bends, uphill and down dale. More surprising however was just how flickable the Pan America is;normal ride mode engaged, the bike springs to life above 3500 revs and the Michelin Scorcher tyres allow you to chuck this thing about with absolute confidence. Pinpoint steering and great feedback from the front end under braking too. Snakes pass was also brilliant, a smoother sweeping set of bends, nonetheless a superb experience on the Pan America. If you havent ridden these roads, you must put it on your ride bucket list! Tomorrow is the last day of the tour before heading home and so far the trip and the motorcycle have been exceptional. Catch up then, signing off. Mike. Day 4 of the Peaks Tour. Time to get lost. After doing most of the Peak District'ssignposted roads, its time to ditch the nav and ride as the crow flies. 154 miles of hidden gems are discovered, roads, lanes, and dirt tracks with the added bonus of breathtaking scenery. This is what adventure touring is all about. The Pan America handled all with absolute ease on both machine and rider and the 25-degree Fahrenheit difference with terrain altitude meant the heated grips were a godsend. Another 8 hours of pure motorcycling enjoyment. So, thats a wrap, time to ride home tomorrow but what a tour it has been. The bike has not missed a beat and dealt with everything that has been thrown at it, terrain, weather, and me at the helm!Its been many years since Ive had the opportunity to do this kind of ride and I have to say with absolute honesty, no better motorcycle could I have chosen to do it on. I hope you enjoyed this brief journey with me. Look out for some film footage in the next few days and Ill also be doing a final thoughts piece when I land back at base. Until next time, bye for now. Mike. Peaks TourTrip End and Final Thoughts. So a total of 5 days, 40 hours, and 800 miles in the saddle on the Harley-Davidson Pan America motorcycle and I have to say what a bike this thing is!Through all weather conditions, road surfaces, and laden with kit the bike never missed a beat and performed flawlessly. And on that note, let's not avoid the elephant in the room and talk about the early software gremlins that some of these bikes suffered, and to be honest this is why I chose this bike for a trip away;a trip away I had paid for with my own money, to share my experience and any problems first hand with my team and you guys on an 'extended' test. Happily, I can report that the only problem I had was coming back to work! Not one issue, glitch, technical, mechanical, or electrical problem to report. H-Dhas nailed it with this bike, dare I say the perfect 'all-rounder' and certainly my go-to bike for my next trip away. Don't believe me? Come and ride this actual bike yourself, available for demo rides now, simply call Cam or Dan on 01638 664455 to book a slot. I'd also be more than happy to have a chat too over a coffee or 5! Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did, until next time, hope to see you at the Dealership soon. Mike.

Undercuts beneath the headlamp are more pronounced, and turn indicators are integrated as opposed to external units. While the iconic "T" shape of the batwing fairing is retained, the silhouette and graphic outline have been modernized with updated surfacing, and the new fairing integrates design with the fuel tank, side covers, and saddlebags. The "Omega-shaped" signature light provides instant recognition of the new model and turns signals are seamlessly integrated into the left and right lamp elements. 2023 Harley-Davidson CVO Road Glide The all-new CVO Road Glide model fairing presents an aggressive update to the MY22 "sharknose" design and integrates with the fuel tank, side covers and saddlebags. The single LED headlamp has a wide, horizonal shape, yet appears to have twin elements, recalling a key feature of all previous Road Glide model fairings and turn signal lamps are integrated within the outer portions of the signature lighting.

Mon, 16 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/s-t-hot-performance S-T HOTPERFORMANCE MAX YOUR ST PERFORMANCE WITH OFFICIAL H-D UPGRADES Inspired by the efforts of the Wyman brothers and the H-D Screamin' Eagle factory race team battling it out for the King of the Baggers crown in America, our upgraded ST Range is bringing added shock factor and track-level handling to the road. Riding a heavily-modified Road Glide, Wyman and his brother Travis are rewriting the rules about Harley-Davidson performance - and owners can now follow their lead with official upgrades from H-D, Ohlins and Screamin' Eagle. Equipped with the Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine, the new Low Rider ST, Road Glide ST and Street Glide ST models deliver more power and performance to the road as standard. But a few modifications, using factory-designed, race-developed parts like the Performance Stage Kits, take performance to the next level with increased acceleration, improved throttle response and greater passing power, compared to stock bikes. Upgrading to Screamin' Eagle/Ohlins suspension ensures an even more personalised ride, with the ability to tailor settings to individual rider weight, loads and riding conditions. All parts are available and can be fitted by one of our specialist H-D technicians.

Thu, 03 Nov 2022 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/the-2023-bmw-m-1000-rr THE BMW M 1000 RR RACING LIKE NO OTHER For all those driven by their passion and ready to take on challenges. For all those who refuse to give up one single millimetre or millisecond: The BMW M RR is the superbike homologated for racing. It was perfected in the wind tunnel and further developed on the circuit. It has optimised aerodynamics and uses carbon, resulting in a significantly higher top speed of 314 km/h. Its engine and chassis remain as powerful and direct as ever. The M RR stands for absolute performance and exclusivity down to the last detail. Just the typical M. #NeverStopChallenging RIDE LIKE YOU'RE IN A SLIPSTREAM The optimised front and side trim panels are made of carbon to ensure greater performance and increase the top speed by 8 km/h. In addition, the new aerodynamics relieve strain on newly designed M winglets made of carbon, on the other hand, increase the downforce of the front wheel by up to 6.3 kg - even when leaning. And they provide 22.6 kg of downforce at 300 km/h, giving riders more confidence during extreme tilts and at high cornering speeds. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE WIND The M brake ducts, and optional M Aero wheel covers were created in collaboration with BMW Motorsport experts. The M brake ducts are directly integrated into the new front-wheel mudguards, which in turn have been optimised for improved airflow around the fork legs and brake callipers. Their first time in use on a series motorcycle, the M brake ducts reduce the temperature of the brake callipers. The M Aero wheel covers, also made of visible carbon, reduce turbulence at the front wheel and unleash your bike's full potential on long straights at speeds greater than 250 km/h. WHEN EVERY MILLIMETRE COUNTS - INCLUDING IN THE ENGINE The M RR power train has a maximum rotational speed of 15,100 rpm and has proven itself in the WSBK. A level of performance where every millimetre counts: A few highlights: fully CNC machined intake ports, lightweight 2-ring forged pistons with piston rings optimised for significantly reduced oil consumption, narrow and lightweight rocker arms, titanium valves, optimised camshafts, and a Pankl titanium connecting rod that is 340 g lighter than the S 1000 RR and delivers reduced friction. In addition, BMW ShiftCam technology for varying valve timing and valve lift as well as an intake system with shorter intake funnels delivering an optimised charge cycle at high engine speeds. To start you off right for victory, its anti-hopping clutch works without self-reinforcement. Clear feedback - not just from the pit lane The best possible feel for the front and rear wheels and breath-taking, pinpoint accuracy: The heart of the chassis is an aluminium bridge frame, which also includes an upside-down fork and a central spring stut with Full Floater Pro kinematics, meaning even greater chassis performance. Consistently and uncompromisingly geared to achieve the best race times, its chassis also impresses those perfectionists taking the road in search of adrenaline. High performance - also a question of tuning What sets a true winner apart is their ability to apply their potential during those critical milliseconds: The M RR Launch Control gives you the perfect start to the race, and the Pit Lane Limiter knows when to control the power. The shift assistant Pro helps you shift gears fast, without actuating the clutch for every gear change. The gearshift diagram can then be simply reversed for racing. In addition, a total of 7 riding modes, two adjustable throttle characteristics, and three setting options for the engine drag torque help you adapt your ride to the track perfectly. The 6.5" TFT display makes everything easy to read. Thu, 27 Oct 2022 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/the-2023-bmw-r-1250-r THE BMW R1250 R EXCESSIVE ROADSTER WITH A BOXER'S PUNCH Unadulterated riding pleasure with that classic boxer punch: The BMW R 1250 R. The only thing as exceptional as its drive system using BMW ShiftCam technology is its versatility: Whether sporty and dynamic, pure and classic, or effortless and relaxed: This roadster delivers an incomparable riding experience. Make a clear statement with its power train and maximum torque of 143 Nm - whenever you want. And with its handling, you are the master of every kilometre - however you want. Simply put: #NeverStopChallenging. Sportiness made visible Feel and enjoy the torque delivered by this boxer with every twist of your wrist. With Core Screen Sport, you now have this sportiness - in the truest sense of the word - at your fingertips. The TFT display provides information such as DTC interventions, your current and maximum lean, as well as the brake intervention force. Eco mode for more efficient riding Being able to drift with ease and unwavering calm, on a powerful boxer: This is also a sign of versatility. With the R 1250 R's new Eco mode, you get maximum range every time you fill your tank. The TFT display shows how efficient your riding style is. For maximum performance, you can switch to another riding mode, quick and easy, at any time. The standard Rain and Road riding modes now also include ABS Pro and DTC. Moreover, the optional Pro Dynamic and Dynamic Pro riding modes help you unleash the full potential of your R 1250 R. Legendary power delivery The heart of the R 1250 R is its impressive ability to adapt perfectly to the situation: Its 1254 ccm boxer engine features BMW ShiftCam technology and a variable camshaft control. Which means superior, uniform power delivery. No matter how you want to ride. From a relaxed cruise to a spontaneous spirit, anything is possible. And when you feel this bike's maximum torque of 143 Nm at full performance, you will know that unmistakable boxer punch which only a roadster can provide. Striking boxer roadster The striking, newly designed LED headlights, with their iconic crescent-shaped LED light guides, give the R 1250 R that characteristic Roadster face. And just as unmistakable, next we have: glass or trim? No need: You can feel the power you put to the road. Fortunately. Because power is the feedback that makes riding such a pleasure. And the optional new single seater perfects the sporty look of the R 1250 R. Make the R 1250 R your roadster With our extensive range of Original BMW Motorrad accessories and matching optional equipment, you can make the R 1250 R your very own roadster.

Sat, 22 Oct 2022 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/2023-bmw-m-1000-r THE 2023 BMW M 1000 R LIFE IN THE FAST LANE Pushes you to the limit: the M 1000 R. In short, the M R. Superbike meets dynamic roadster. Its heritage stems from M racing developers and the race track. A stunning 210 hp with a top speed of 280 km/h and you're in control - on country roads or on the race track. The bike is very forgiving, but it ill never forgive you for not riding it. Maximum performance: a must. Your objective: exceed - dominate the road. M colours clearly signal this. Unmissable: the sound of the M R four-cylinder engine. Can you hear it calling you? Start the engine! #Never M statement: design Dominant front, aggresive rear: M R at its best. Take your seat on the M seat at the perfect height and reach for the widened tubular handlebar with lasered "BMW M 1000 R" lettering. You stare into the aluminium, milled handlebar end mirrors. Sound on, light on: the M logo appears in the LED headlight. You know the road is yours. M perfection: Winglets Perfection is in the details. M winglets generate aerodynamic downforce to prevent high flyers from taking off. At a speed of 220 km/h, they increase the front-wheel load by 11kg. Your benefit: maximum riding stability, a lower tendency for the front wheel to lift off the road surface as well as the possibilty to brake later and accelerate earlier when cornering. M experience: electronics Fully fledged M experience: the 6.5-inch TFT display welcomes you to the exclusive circle of high-performance riders with M start-up animation. One of four screen variants appears automatically after having started up thanks to the memory function. Optimised for the race track in true M style: as part of the new flashing gearshift indicator, the entire rev counter flashes once the set speed has been reached. M dominance: engine Superbike engine perfected for a hyper roadster: the four-cylinder engine from the RR with BMW ShiftCam technology catapults you from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.2 seconds. With a maximum engine speed of 14,600 rpm, the M R is clearly our most powerful roadster. From 10,000 rpm, you can consequently feel more torque and acceleration. In terms of its gear ratio, the M R has more to offer compared with the RR: 47 instead of 46 teeth in the secondary gear ratio and a shorter gear ratio in 4th, 5th and 6th gear - for performance-oriented riding along country roads. Shift assistant Pro enables fast upshifts and downshifts. The bike's rich sound originating from the titanium rear silencer impressively emphasises this. M riding experience: chassis Clear feedback and breathtaking target accuracy: the chassis with standard DDC as well as fully adjustable suspension elements, adjustable steering damper and milled handlebar clamp. For the M R, it was modified from the RR setup to match the demands of a dynamic roadster. New ergonomics and new handlebars ensure a seating position that is focused on the front wheel. M intelligence: assistants Rather than doping: high levels of performance thanks to high-end assistants. Three accelerator characteristics, linked to the Rain, Road, Dynamic, Race and Race Pro riding modes, deliver optimum response characteristics. DTC ensures maximum safety and riding dynamics depending on the riding mode and Brake Slide Assist supports you in braking drifts when cornering.

Fri, 17 Jun 2022 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/the-bmw-m-1000-rr-a-hat-trick THE BMW M 1000 RR RACING LIKE NO OTHER. Peter Hickman (GBR) has completed the hat-trick with his BMW M 1000 RR at this years Isle of Man TT. After winning the Superbike and Superstock races at the beginning of race week, the Gas Monkey Garage by FHO Racing rider was also victorious in the prestigious Senior TT that closed the event. Three races, three wins is the summary for Hickman and the BMW M 1000 RR on the IoMTT debut for the bike. Hickys success in the opening RST Superbike race last Saturday, which he won in commanding style, marked the first ever Isle of Man victory for the BMW M 1000 RR. On Monday, he repeated that success in the Superstock race. In the final Senior TT, that had been postponed from Friday to Saturday, Hickman was again the winner. Ian Hutchinson (GBR), in action with the BMW M 1000 RR of the Milwaukee BMW Motorrad team, finished all three races with strong results. He was fourth in the Superbike race and seventh each in the Superstock race and the Senior TT. Three victories at the Isle of Man TT are a great result for us as a manufacturer, said BMW Motorrad Motorsport Director Marc Bongers. The last time we achieved that was quite a while ago. These were also the first victories for the BMW M 1000 RR on the Isle of Man after the event could not take place in the past two years due to the Corona pandemic. The two weeks on the Isle of Man have not been completely trouble-free for us but we were able to solve the issues on site with support from Munich and to bring the BMW M 1000 RR to its performance. Peter transferred this brilliantly into three victories in the Superbike race, the Superstock race and the Senior TT. As BMW Motorrad Motorsport, we can be satisfied. A big thank you goes to the BMW teams, especially to FHO Racing and Peter Hickman.

This will be supported by an opportunity for the media to talk to the team, see the prototype in action on track and hear from the development test riders. It has been truly exciting to see the progress made during phase 3 of Project Triumph TE1 with the final prototype motorcycle now going into real life testing. Everyone involved at Triumph are proud to have been part of this innovative British collaboration. Personally, I am thrilled with the results we have already achieved with our partners, and the exciting preview of the potential electric future to come. said Nick Bloor, Triumph CEO. We look forward to continuing the ambitious and innovative work on the TE-1 demonstrator prototype through the live testing phase and sharing the outcome with Triumph fans across the world. PROJECT TE-1 PHASE 3 OUTCOMES Demonstrator Prototype TRIUMPH MOTORCYCLES The Triumph TE-1 team began phase 3 by successfully building an initial mule bike which incorporated the battery, inverter, motor, and chassis into one machine for the first time. Using this platform, all of the project partners worked collaboratively to optimise software integration across the complex systems, involving hundreds of hours of detailed testing to ensure the functionality of all the features and software aspects behave accurately and intuitively, as a customer would expect. This was validated in real life simulation work carried out at WMG, involving detailed powertrain rig testing and simulations to assess safety critical items relating to motor function and vehicle control. Durability testing on the primary transmission has also been conducted to ensure a full understanding of the fundamental differences in electric motor load application for vehicle use cases, efficiency, and consequences to gear life. Alongside this work, the Triumph-led design of the bespoke chassis has focused on delivering the phase 2 styling intent as closely as possible. Phase 3 of the project is now complete with the fully assembled TE-1 demonstrator prototype, the photographs of which are revealed for the first time today. Steve Sargent, Triumphs Chief Product Officersaid During phase 3 we have focused on building the physical foundation of Triumphs first electric prototype motorcycle. I am pleased with the outcome of Triumph and the TE-1 partners efforts in creating a demonstrator bike that is not only visually so desirable with clear Triumph DNA, but also packaged with an exhilarating and thrilling brand-new electric powertrain that has such potential for the future. I look forward to continuing the development of this demonstrator vehicle through phase 4 and using our knowledge and capabilities to bring all of the partners cutting-edge technology together into a final result which will guide Triumphs electric strategy for the future. Our experience tells us that at this stage of a project there is no substitute to genuinely riding a bike when developing driveability, handling and character, and we have ambitious targets focused on delivering a riding experience that is new and exciting, but ultimately intuitive and familiar. I am really looking forward to my first opportunity to ride the completed prototype. WILLIAMS ADVANCED ENGINEERING (WAE) Following completion of Phase 2 of the programme in March 2021, which delivered a fully bench tested battery, Williams Advanced Engineering have now concluded work on Phase 3 which contained some critical gateways for the project. In addition to supporting a number of hardware and software solutions; specifically integrating Triumphs motorcycle control software to work in harmony with WAEs controller and battery management system, the team have enhanced the integration of the mechanical and electrical solutions; optimising battery layout to balance mass and positioning within the chassis. The demonstrator bike is now undergoing final battery level validation and calibration to ensure the performance results meet best-in-class power and energy density targets and for the rider, ensuring there is no compromise in performance at low levels of charge. Following an extended period of testing, we are thrilled to finally see the results of our work on a physical bike. By working with the team at Triumph, we have continued to push the boundaries of battery technology, keeping the rider in mind at all times, said Dyrr Ardash, Head of Strategic Partnerships, Williams Advanced. Engineering Because we have designed the battery from the ground-up, design has not been compromised and we have been able to push the boundaries of current technology, offering both performance and all important, range. INTEGRAL POWERTRAIN LTD.S E-DRIVE DIVISION We are absolutely delighted to complete our part in this project and deliver what we set out to achieve which is a scalable, ultra-highly integrated motor and inverter, with no phase cables, busbars, or separate cooling circuits. For the TE-1 application, the motor achieves peak and continuous power densities of 13 kW/kg and 9 kW/kg respectively which is 60% higher than new APC technology roadmap targets for 2025. All of this has been achieved using materials and processes compatible with volume automotive production and importantly using a length scalable motor platform. The inverter concept, which is also scalable by tuning the number of Silicon-Carbide power stages for different diameter motors, has really delivered on performance. The TE-1 unit is capable of >500kW! This gives us the opportunity to optimise this platform for production. The integrated motor and inverter unit is now on the bike and is delivering on the target performance and cycle efficiency we engineered, modelled and simulated to achieve. Were very much looking forward the feedback from bike-level testing and the benefits of our high efficiency on range. Were really proud to have been a key part of this exciting project which has been a landmark for electric motorcycles and British industry. Andrew Cross, Chief Technical Officer at Integral Powertrain Ltd. WMG, UNIVERSITY OF WARWICK WMG have been working closely with Triumph to support the development of the motorcycle control unit via a comprehensive real-time evaluation process using two bespoke physical rigs. A 3D physical motorcycle model has been created and integrated with the first rig to allow the evaluation and refinement of the control unit under real-world driving scenarios, ensuring it behaves well before the integration into the initial prototype bike. The second rig has been utilised to support Triumph in evaluating the power and energy performance of the whole drivetrain as well as confirming its durability. We have also focused on control research and development at other levels, including advanced traction control and optimal brake blending strategies. The findings in energy system modelling, simulation and control, especially real-world case studies with electric motorcycles, gained through this TE-1 project have been utilised to develop teaching materials on energy systems, hybridisation and electrification technologies across education programmes at WMG.Truong Quang Dinh, Associate Professor of Energy System Management and Control at WMG, University of Warwick. WMG have also been helping Triumph understand the opportunities and wider implications of electrification towards their business. This has included investigating the opportunities for electric two-wheeler charging networks, the need for domestic electric motorcycle recycling, the necessity to develop local battery supply chains and the direction that Triumph will need to take to ensure that they can design, develop, manufacture and distribute electric two-wheeled vehicles in the future. The findings from these studies are also providing direction to national and local governments, specifically around areas where policy intervention can support electric motorcycle adoption. In many studies undertaken by WMG, bespoke computer-based models developed at the university (such as the universitys own UniWarp software), have been instrumental in understanding the best possible direction or action required for different scenarios. This approach has enabled WMG to quantify the environmental impact of electric motorcycles and has defined methods by which this can be further improved through new vehicle features, vehicle system sizing or new external collaborations.

Wed, 26 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/bmw-motorrad-reveal-r18-mr18-aurora-concept The Verona Motor Bike Expo has been the perfect stage to bring to the eyes of Italian and European enthusiasts two exclusive motorcycle customization projects based on the iconic BMW R 18. These are the result of the collaboration of BMW Motorrad Italy and its dealer network with some of the historical players of this world.The R 18 M is a project developed by Italian Magazine LowRide and created by American Dreams. The R 18 Aurora, was created by Garage 221 that was engaged by BMW Motorrad Roma. BMW R 18 M. M is the letter that distinguished the sport versions of BMW four-wheeled models, and today it also includes two-wheeled vehicles. The source of inspiration for the BMW R 18 M project by the editorial staff of LowRide is the following: the idea is to give the BMW Cruiser a more streamlined and sportier look, avoiding exaggerations and especially without forgetting the reference to the BMW R 18 retro lines. "Stability, long wheelbase and readiness of the 1800 cc big boxer instigate lightning starts and deserve, in our opinion, a sporty and retro look. In the R 18 M design, we find suggestions from BMW Motorrad tradition and cues from the four-wheelers: M stands for Motorsport as Giuseppe Roncen, director of LowRide and a great expert of the world of specials, described the BMW R 18 M project. The work has focused on chassis, suspension set-up, bodywork, and accessories, leaving mechanics and electronics unchanged as the natural strengths of the R 18. Lightened and with a different riding position, the BMW R 18 M promises to be even more fun to ride: "We remain curious to experience its potential. Significantly lightened, the bike should also be easy to handle due to its riding position, which is more compact and forward loaded, without exaggeration." Built by many hands, from designers to experienced craftsmen. The R 18 M project was made possible by BMW Italia and was born in the wake of the emotions that this bike can give: a fun cruiser, powerful and lively, with a big heart and an infinite torque. LowRide has involved some of the best Italian craftsmanship and companies specialized in the sector. The realization of the sketches was entrusted to designer Oberdan Bezzi, already a partner of LowRide in the past. He has managed to make it an exciting power cruiser without upsetting the essence of the BMW R 18. American Dreams handled the assembly and coordinated the work; Elaboratorio, specializing in prototyping and modeling, created tail, tip and fiberglass windshield from scratch. Carbon Italy handled the head covers, intake ducts, and other carbon fiber details. The short exhaust pipe, designed to make the line more compact and allow greater lean angles, bears the signature of ER Exhaust Revolution. The short exhaust pipes also give greater prominence to the splendid uncovered nickel-plated shaft, an evocative detail that deserves to be highlighted. L.R. Leather covered the saddle in leather, while the paintwork was entrusted to Dox Art Factory. Rizoma provided mirrors, grips, and universal indicators for the accessories, perfectly in line with the bike's character. BMW R 18 Aurora. The idea and desire of Garage 221 to create a custom bike based on the BMW R 18 found its origins a while ago, at the presentation of the bike at EICMA 2019. The lines of the new BMW cruiser, innovative and at the same time faithfully traditional, deserved "complementary elements and an even more Heritage spirit, starting from the soft lines of the tank to the characteristic shapes of the boxer," in the opinion of Pier Francesco Marchio of Garage 221. The project initially focused on the study of the different sections of the bike, keeping in mind the need to connect the new elements in a unique harmony of lines, taking inspiration from the cruisers of the 1970s, which have always particularly involved Pier Francesco "for their impressive aesthetic fluidity." Distinctive elements of the BMW R 18 Aurora by Garage 221 are the wraparound fenders and adherent to the wheel, like the "batwing", to leave space and thus highlight the central area of the bike. A Custom with the BMW tradition at its core. The modifications that led to the R 18 Aurora stem from Garage 221's experience in the BMW world and indeed all used elements come from other models of BMW Motorrad. The saddle was borrowed in its entirety from a BMW 1200 C of 2005, the Batwing supports were made using the supports for indicators of a BMW R 100 of 1982 and a part of the rear frame of a BMW K 75 of 1991. Even for the color of the body, the code of a 1983 BMW RT 100 was taken as a reference, customizing the graphics in its shades and intensity. The front and rear fender supports, saddle supports, and license plate holder arms are entirely handmade. The exhaust pipes were made in collaboration with Leo Vince, taking particular care of the sound, to make it even more full-bodied and captivating. Their design has been specifically studied to give a very personal and muscular line to the central part of the R 18. The R 18 Aurora's oil cooler grille gives a classy natural touch, inspired by the grille of BMW's cars from the 1960s. "It was a lot of hard work," said Pier Francesco, "but the result is truly stunning. The textured paintwork of the cylinder head covers, the injection housings, the central crankcase and our oil cooler grille make everything look homogeneous, creating a unique effect with the cylinder block and the bevel gear."

Triumphs success has always stemmed from the passion and commitment we share with our riders. Whilst the last year has been challenging for all of us, this passion and commitment has driven Triumph to even greater heights, including the successful entry into new categories with the Trident 660 and Tiger Sport 660. Over the last three decades Triumph has maintained sustained and significant investment in our people, our partners and our in-house design, engineering and manufacturing capabilities, in order to grow the reach and reputation of this iconic British brand. This investment in home grown talent, both in the UK and around the world, matched by the passion we share with our riders for delivering the complete and perfect motorcycle, has seen the brand go from strength to strength, achieving the most successful year in the brands entire 120-year history. Furthermore, we are committed to taking the brand to even greater heights, and with the forthcoming launch of our brand new Tiger 1200, new competition MX and Enduro motorcycles, plus our strategic partnership with Bajaj to create smaller capacity bikes, I am delighted to say that the future for Triumph and its fans across the world will be just as exciting and rich as the last 30 years has been, Nick Bloor Triumph CEO. Celebrating 120 Years of the Most Successful British Motorcycle Brand Encompassing millions of passionate fans who share the same obsession for motorcycling Triumph announce their plans to celebrate in 2022 the landmark 120-year anniversary of this iconic British motorcycle brand. The very first production Triumph motorcycle went on sale to the public in April 1902, starting one of the worlds richest and most exciting brand stories; a story that has gone on to encompass countless legendary motorcycles, and playing a significant role in shaping the motorcycle world we enjoy today. Triumphs modern era began in 1990 with a completely original range of motorcycles designed and built in a brand new, state-of-the-art factory at Hinckley. In the three decades since, Triumph has built and sold more motorcycles than at any previous time in its history through an international network of more than 700 dealers in 57 countries. And despite recent challenges, the passion for Triumph shared around the world by owners, riders, fans and dealers has made the last 12 months the most successful ever, with more than 75,000 bikes registered globally and a turnover of 650 million. Triumph represents the very pinnacle of Great British design and engineering, with a line-up of world-beating bikes spanning multiple genres from adventure to roadsters to modern classics, each delivering Triumphs renowned reputation for class-leading handling, finish and detailing and original, authentic design. Today Triumph operates across five manufacturing facilities, all managed and led by the global headquarters in Hinckley, Leicestershire, where every Triumph is conceived, prototyped and tested in Triumphs centre of design excellence by our in-house team. The most recent addition to Hinckleys impressive infrastructure is an all-new UK assembly plant, built to enhance Triumphs global manufacturing flexibility and complement the existing multi-million-pound paint shop and rapid prototyping facilities. A truly global operation Triumph has 13 sales and marketing offices around the world, manufacturing and production facilities located in Thailand, where the company has its own casting, injection-moulding, machining and assembly facilities, and plants in India and Brazil, which assemble bikes destined for local markets. Triumphs Factory Visitor Experience* at Hinckley, opened in 2018, invites visitors to get a taste of Triumphs manufacturing expertise as well as showcasing the most important collection of motorcycles from the iconic British firms past and present. From January 2022 Triumph will invite fans from all over the world to join the factory in celebrating the pure spirit of motorcycling, in a series of stories, meet-ups and special events throughout the year. Keep an eye out for more details to come in the new year. *The Triumph Factory Visitor Experience is free to visit and is located at Triumphs HQ in Hinckley, England and is open daily Wednesday through Sunday, from 10am - 4.30pm.

In "The Great Getaway", BMW Motorrad will be offering the perfectly organised travel format for a perfect time-out, arranged and carried out by BMW Motorrad partner Elephant Moto. For the 2022 motorcycle season, three inspiring destinations have been planned to provide riders with outstanding motorcycling pleasure in heritage style: Costa Rica, Portugal and the USA. Each tour includes eight days of riding on motorcycles from the R18 family, a tour guide, hotel accommodation and meals, support vehicle and an extensive social programme. In short: everything has been thought of. The "Big Boxers" will be cruisng along rugged coasts, through dense forests and past mountains and waterfalls. The participants will get to know hidden places and exciting people, indulge in local and international cuisine and recharge their batteries for the next day in accommodation specially tailored to the tours.

All available from January 2022, and pre-orders happening now, these new editions guarantee a unique and bold presence on the road, and a guaranteed place in history. STREET TWIN EC1. The new Street Twin EC1 is powered by the latest generation Euro 5 compliant Bonneville twin engine, delivering all of the power, character and ride-by-wire-responsiveness of the latest standard Street Twin. This fuel-efficient power plant delivers incredible torque from low down and right through the rev range for thrilling acceleration, with 65 PS peak power arriving at 7,500 rpm, and an incredible 80 Newton metres of peak torque at a low 3,800 rpm. The EC1 also has the distinctive and rich trademark British Twin soundtrack, courtesy of the distinctive, twin upswept silencers. ROCKET 3 221. The new Rocket 3 221 is powered the 2,458cc triple engine delivering the worlds highest peak torque of 221Nm at 4,000rpm, while power is a breath-taking 167PS at 6,000rpm. The Rocket 3 R and GT are effortlessly thrilling to ride, beautifully smooth and responsive, for all day, any gear riding. As with all Triumph motorcycles, a wide range of genuine accessories are available to enhance the Rockets comfort, practicality, style and security.

This includes the new Aegean Blue cockpit fairing, along with clip-on handlebars, heated grips and luggage, to name just a few. All genuine Triumph accessories are designed alongside the bike itself, and are tested to the same quality and durability standards. Thats why all accessories come with the same two-year unlimited mileage warranty as the bike itself. Thu, 11 Nov 2021 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/new-bmw-k-1600-models The new K 1600 models: Six-cylinder fascination for dynamic and luxurious riding, touring and cruising. Six-cylinder in-line engines have always belonged to the showcase drives at BMW. Since 2010, BMW Motorrad offers fascinating high-performance and luxurious six-cylinder equipment at the highest level with the K 1600 models. The K 1600 GT represents the particularly agile, dynamic variant of the six-cylinder design, while the K 1600 GTL with its more comfortable ergonomics and standard topcase is more for pleasurable riding. The K 1600 B is of a completely different breed. It provides characteristic streamlining with a low rear section in bagger style. Its motto is The Spirit of the Open Road. It represents elegance, power and luxury on two wheels and allows the rider to experience every road, every tour and every moment particularly intensively. Derived from the K 1600 B, the K 1600 Grand America finally combines the superior performance of the six-cylinder in-line engine with exclusive equipment features that make long-distance rides in American highway cruising style an experience that is as comfortable as it is fascinating, both alone or with a partner. Revised six-cylinder in-line engine according to EU-5 regulations with new engine control, knock sensor system and revised emission concept as well as engine drag torque control. For use in the new K 1600 GT, GTL, B and Grand America, the inspiring six-cylinder engine has been adapted to the current EU-5 regulations. From a technical point of view, the use of the BMS-O engine control, two knock sensors and two additional broadband lambda probes form the centrepiece. In addition to drastically improved emission values, there are also noticeable benefits relating to the power and torque of the six-cylinder engine. The nominal capacity is still 118 kW (160 hp). However, it is now already achieved at a rotational speed of 6 750 rpm and thus 1 000 rpm sooner than was formerly the case. In addition, the technical new features provide an increase of the maximum torque from previously 175 Nm to now 180 Nm at a rotational speed of still 5 250 rpm. Even more superior pulling power and even more powerful acceleration are the noticeable positive effects for the rider. The engine drag torque control (MSR) is another new component. With it, unstable riding conditions, which can develop in coasting mode or when shifting down gears due to excessive slip at the rear wheel, can be reliably avoided. Dynamic ESA Next Generation electronic suspension with fully automatic load compensation. The BMW Motorrad Dynamic ESA Next Generation (Electronic Suspension Adjustment) on the new K 1600 GT, GTL, B and Grand America enables even higher dimensions in terms of riding safety, performance and comfort, because damping is automatically adapted to the riding conditions and manoeuvres, and there is also automatic riding position compensation in all load states. Highly modern LED light units and new full LED adaptive headlight. BMW Motorrad has been a pioneer for decades in terms of safety when biking. Accordingly, the new K 1600 GT, GTL, B and Grand America already provide highly modern LED light units as standard. The new full LED headlight with LED lens technology and iconic daytime riding light (depending on the market) illuminates the road with an unrivalled bright, clear light and underlines the prestige claim of the new six-cylinder models. Another standard component of the headlight is the swivelling adaptive headlight function. With it, the low-beam LED headlight is turned into the curve according to the heel angle. Curves are thus almost fully illuminated because the light is where the motorbike is moving. In addition, by swivelling the entire headlight unit (2), the vehicle dynamic states (braking, accelerating) are automatically controlled and optimum illumination is ensured at all times. In addition, there are a number of new light functions such as the welcome light. New, 10.25 inch TFT colour display with integrated map navigation, easy-to-use route planning and comprehensive connectivity as standard. The new K 1600 GT, GTL, B and Grand America are standard-equipped with a new 10.25 inch TFT colour display with integrated map navigation and connectivity. Due to excellent readability, clear menu navigation and a highly integrated operating concept, they are at the top of their motorbike segment. The new 10.25 inch colour display allows a navigation map to be displayed on the instrument cluster, meaning an additional display is not required. Audio system 2.0 a new digital sound dimension as standard or as optional equipment ex works. With audio system 2.0, the new K 1600 GTL and Grand America already provide an even more intensive sound experience as standard. The audio system is available as optional equipment ex works for the K 1600 GT and K 1600 B. Superior riding capability and six-cylinder dynamics in attractive basic colours, exclusive style and noble Option 719 variants. Option 719 Midnight with water transfer printing method for K 1600 B and K 1600 Grand America. The new K 1600 GT, GTL, B and Grand America are available in three attractive colour options each: a basic variant, a style variant and Option 719. Option 719 Midnight is particularly noteworthy, which is only available for K 1600 B and K 1600 Grand America. The highlight of this equipment variant is the paintwork in Meteoric Dust II metallic with the Galaxy theme depicted using the water transfer printing method.

The new BMW R 18 Transcontinental and R 18 B: The Big Boxer" as the Grand American Tourer for luxurious travelling and as Bagger for cool American highway cruising. With the new R 18 Transcontinental, BMW Motorrad is adding a Grand American Tourer to the R 18 family as well as the R 18 B "Bagger", which is particularly popular in the USA. As with the previous R 18 models, the new R 18 Transcontinental and R 18 B combine the thrilling power of the "Big Boxer" with a classic chassis concept based on historical models, exclusive equipment and a stylish design. This makes the R 18 Transcontinental ideal for travelling and long-distance rides in American riding style - both for riding solo and with a pillion and luggage. The R 18 B, on the other hand, is designed as a "riders machine" delivering emotional driving pleasure and ideal for cool touring and cruising. Special features of the new R 18 Transcontinental include: Front fairing with high wind shield, wind deflector and flaps. Cockpit with four analogue round instruments and 10.25 inch TFT colour display, additional headlamp, Marshall sound system, engine protection bars, cases, top case, seat heating, chrome trim and an engine in Silver metallic. In contrast, the new R 18 B does without a top case and, in the style of a "bagger", offers a low windshield, a slimmer seat and a matt black metallic engine among other things. The most powerful BMW boxer engine of all time with full torque. The heart of the new R 18 Transcontinental and R 18 B is a 2-cylinder boxer engine, the "Big Boxer", which is a completely newly development for the R 18 models. Not only its impressive appearance, but also its technical specifications show its ties to the traditional air-cooled boxer engines that have provided inspiring riding experiences for more than seven decades since BMW Motorrad began manufacturing motorcycles in 1923. The most powerful 2-cylinder flat twin engine ever built in motorbike series production boasts an engine capacity of 1,802 cc. It generates an output of 67 kW (91 hp) at 4 750 rpm. In the 2,000 to 4,000 rpm range, it delivers more than 150 Nm of torque at all times as well as elemental pulling power and sonorous sound.

To call it the ultimate Sportster is an understatement A REVOLUTION OF POWER & PERFORMANCE A legacy that began in 1957, the Sportser set speed records, raced and won off-road, and has inspired racers, builders, and riders for generation. Today Sportster is reborn, delivering on a new promise of performance in a way only Harley-Davidson can do. DUAL PURPOSE POWERTRAIN The revolution Max 1250T is a structural component of the motorcycle chassis, eliminating a traditional frame which significantly reduces overall weight and keeps handling precise. This is performance you can feel, with the center of gravity low and the chassis super rigid. HIGH MOUNT EXHAUST Inspired by the glory days of H-D flat-track racing, the pipes are crafted from corrosion-resistant 304-series stainless steel and engineered to deflect exhaust heat away from the rider's legs and tail section. ALL-NEW REVOLUTION MAX 1250T POWERTRAIN. The next chapter in a century of legendary V-Twins is here. Revolution Max is a liquid-cooled powertrain with double overhead camshafts and variable valve timing; offering ample torque and an immediate powerband turned to maximise rider control. CLASSIC MEETS MODERN; 4" ROUND DISPLAY Everything you need to know is housed in a Bluetooth-equipped, 4" (109 mm) round thin-film transistor LCD Display: digital gauges, indicators, ride modes, and turn-by-turn navigation with the Harley-Davidson app. All functions are accessed via buttons on the left and right hand controls. CHOOSE YOUR RIDE MODE. Flick a switch and choose from 3 pre-programmed Ride Modes (Sport, Road, and Rain) or create your own custom mode tuning your bike with a specific combination of power delivery, engine braking, Cornering Enhanced Antilock Braking System (C-ABS) and Cornering Enhanced Traction Control System (C-TCS) settings. MAKE IT YOUR OWN Harley-Davidson Parts & accessories offers new ways to take your Sportster S to a whole new level. Mid-control kit for comfort and style.

The Hives and Jake Bugg confirmed as first acts. Festival tickets are pre-selling now. Launched in Berlin in 2015 and initiated by BMW Motorrad, the Pure&Crafted Festival will return to the banks of the Spree river in 2021.

Thu, 10 Jun 2021 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/the-pan-america-has-landed It's been a very exciting week for our Lind H-D teams. Our stores in Guilford, Newmarket, Norwich, Reading & Watford have recieved the latest model in the Harley-Davidson line up, the highly anticipated Pan America. Our sales team members were lucky enough to try the new models out before they landed and here's what they thought: 'Yesterday I was lucky enough to test the newest addition to Harley-Davidsons line up, The New Pan-America 1250 Special. This bike is new territory for the brand, and it has to be said, they have smashed it! 150 HP and 94 Ft lb of torque on both the standard bike and the Special. This combined with the different riding modes, many suspension settings and huge level of standard options means that the bike really delivers against its competition. The dealer network and press have been testing the bike this week by Lake Vyrnwy in Wales with the help of Mick Extance and his team. Stunning scenery and clear blue sky was the perfect starting point for my ride as we headed off into the hills with no previous experience of riding off road. Id be lying if I said I wasnt a little anxious about this but as we started looping around the lake it quickly became clear that this bike was different to anything Id ridden before. The bike is equipped with five pre-set driving modes including Road, Sport, Rain, Off-Road, and Off-Road Plus. Each mode gave the bike a completely different riding dynamic, most notably on the quicker section of the route when changing from road to sport mode. After a while we arrived at the off-road section of the ride and it was time to step into the unknown. The brief was to simply enjoy the scenery, not to worry about exactly what we were riding over and just enjoy it. The traction control and ABS coupled with the bikes off-road setting made it an absolute joy to take though terrain I would never think was possible for a novice. In summary, the bike made very light work of some tough terrain for a rider with no experience, it was agile on the road and quite a bit faster than I was expecting. The bike left me wanting to go further and feeling confident, as if I knew what I was doing even. I would be happy to talk about my experience of the Pan-America to anyone in the showroom or better still, our demonstrator arrives next week, why not come down and test it for yourself.'

Tue, 30 Mar 2021 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/project-triumph-te-1-prototype-motorcycle-design With the exciting reveal of the innovative advanced electric powertrain and battery and the first styling sketches for the final Project TE-1 Prototype, Phase 2 of this landmark four phase collaboration in British design and engineering reaches a successful conclusion. Delivering on the objectives announced at the start of the TE-1 project in May 2019, focused on developing specialist electric motorcycle technology and innovative integrated solutions, this unique collaboration between Triumph Motorcycles, Williams Advanced Engineering, Integral Powertrain Ltd, and WMG at the University of Warwick funded by the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles, has already achieved significant results. Including innovation in battery and powertrain design, initial test performance results far exceed the current benchmarks and industry targets. Developments in performance, efficiency and range is enabling Project TE-1 to fully deliver the partnerships objectives to enhance the credibility and profile of British industry providing substantial input into future electric motorcycle strategy from Triumph. Announcing the completion of Phase 2- with the reveal of the battery and powertrain prototype, initial high level performance results, and the first design concept drawings for the Project TE-1 Prototype motorcycle that will be created at the end of the next phase. Key project achievements to dateinclude test results that show significant innovation in mass, battery technology, and powertrain performance that exceeds the target set by the UK Automotive Council for 2025, meeting the projects ambitious objectives to deliver genuine innovation for a new standard in fully usable electric motorcycle performance. Project TE-1 is a unique collaboration between four major UK industry and academic leaders- Triumph Motorcycles, Williams Advanced Engineering, Integral Powertrain Ltd.s e-Drive Division, and WMG at the University of Warwick. The objective of this two-year project is focused on developing electric motorcycle capabilities- providing an input into Triumphs future electric motorcycle offer, driving innovation, capability and new intellectual property, enhancing the credibility and profile of British industry and design. Project TE-1 is fundedby the UK Governments Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV), and delivered through Innovate UK The completion of Phase 2, and the promising results achieved to date, provide an exciting glimpse of the potential electric future and showcase the talent and innovation of this unique British collaboration. Without doubt the outcome of this project will play a significant part in our future efforts to meet our customers ambition and desire to reduce their environmental impact and for more sustainable transportation, said Nick Bloor, Triumph CEO. This important project will provide one of the foundations for our future electric motorcycle strategy, which is ultimately focussed on delivering what riders want from their Triumph; the perfect balance of performance, handling and real world usability, with genuine Triumph character. PROJECT TE-1 PHASE 2 OUTCOMES Battery and powertrain prototype WILLIAMS ADVANCED ENGINEERING (WAE) Based on the agreed specification, we identified appropriate cell technology and battery architecture to deliver the performance objectives. Using this as a framework, we then optimised the battery module layout to balance mass and positioning within the prototype chassis taking into consideration centre of gravity, space and relationship with the powertrain and charging approach. In addition to the module layout, we have also developed a new and unique vehicle control unit which is integrated into the battery pack to minimise weight and packaging. In parallel, WAE has also created innovative battery management software to ensure power is delivered in relationship to battery performance. The outcome of Phase 2 for WAE includes a fully bench-tested battery with performance results that exceeds anything else on the market in terms of Power and Energy Density. We are delighted to be working on this project, working to deliver next-generation battery technology and control systems. Within the current landscape, most electric motorcycle technology arguably delivers compromised performance at low levels of battery charge. By using a lightweight, compact solution we have been able to give the rider all of the performance all of the time (regardless of battery charge), and a class leading range. We have focussed on pushing the boundaries to reduce mass and optimise frame position to benefit handling. We have also pushed the limits of battery performance, balancing the design for acceleration and range, with simulations modelled on track-based riding. In other words, as aggressive as possible, saidDyrr Ardash, Senior Commercial Manager, Williams Advanced Engineering.The energy density of this new battery will be a significant step forward from existing technology giving the rider more power, for longer. WAE has also designed and developed an electronic control unit from the ground-up combining the battery management system with the bike control functions in one package. This is a first for this market, benefiting packaging and integration whilst optimising performance and range. INTEGRAL POWERTRAIN LTD.S E-DRIVEDIVISION Our experience in cutting edge motor and inverter design and manufacture has helped us to push this technology on to the next level for the TE-1 project. In Phase 1 we worked to integrate the normally separate motor and inverter into one single, compact, package. Integration reduces the mass and volume of the drivetrain by reducing additional boxes on the vehicle, mounting features, coolant pipework and heavy high voltage connections. The innovative integration concept is also a fully scalable one, whereby the number of power stages can increase for larger diameter, higher torque motors for example. Combined with our state-of-the-art motor technology, we have seen very exciting results already, with the motor achieving a power density twice that of the target set by the UK Automotive Council for 2025. We have also implemented advanced silicon carbide switch technology in the inverter, this reduces losses in the inverter and results in greater drivetrain efficiency, power delivery and range. At the end of Phase 2, we are proud to have built a fully operational, new, prototype motor that has been bench tested and is delivering on all aspects of performance. "One of the most influential factors in how well a motorcycle handles and performs is mass, so at Integral Powertrain we have focused heavily on making a step change in motor and inverter design, removing heavy high voltage cables for example. This delivers a product that is significantly more compact and lighter than anything currently available on the market. The motor produces 130kW or almost 180 horsepower, but weighs only 10 kilograms, much lighter than existing technology and clearly a small fraction of the mass of traditional internal combustion engines, saidAndrew Cross, Chief Technical Officer at Integral Powertrain Ltd.The silicon carbide switch technology in our new scalable integrated inverter will help set new standards in terms of electric motorcycle efficiency; application of this technology means a lighter weight overall with significantly more performance and range. In parallel, we have a very strong focus on design for manufacture and assembly activity, so that all this high motor and inverter performance can be offered cost-effectively. Ultimately, this is really going to be an industry-leading powertrain that will help define the future of electric mobility. With the TE-1 project we are proud to be part of this landmark project for British industry. WMG, AT THE UNIVERSITY OF WARWICK At WMG we have been working closely with all the TE-1 partners during Phase 1 and 2 to develop representative models to simulate the systems of the bike including battery, motor and vehicle control. Initially this allowed us to validate the specification against the intended component selection by assessing performance criteria such as range and top speed with initial models. This has enabled Triumph to carry out software development at an early stage prior to hardware being built with thorough testing programmes to ensure that real-life testing can deliver on refinement. Most recently we have been conducting powertrain rig testing using the prototype IPT powertrain to ensure our simulations are accurate and to confirm that the motor functions within the system as intended. We have also been providing guidance to Triumph relating to future legislation, charging infrastructure and recycling strategies that will need to be implemented across future electric motorcycle platforms. Our creation of initial computer-based simulation models at the start of Phase 1 has been instrumental in ensuring that the component selection was appropriate to achieve the performance targets defined by the partners for the TE-1 Prototype. We have continued with this work across Phase 2 of the project, refining the models to a much more complex level to allow us and the partners to imitate further components on the bike such as braking, throttle, lighting and other systems and mimic real-world riding to provide development opportunities before components were fully designed. Additionally we have created a physical rig wired with all of the control units, in order to implement a design validation test programme to ensure the function of each section was within the allowable range,said Truong Quang Dinh, Assistant Professor of Energy Management and Control Systems at WMG, University of Warwick. TRIUMPH MOTORCYCLES Throughout phase 2 Triumph have developed an all new advanced vehicle control software which incorporates all of the electrical systems to ensure intuitive throttle response, regen braking, traction control and all of the dimensions that a customer would expect from a high-performance Triumph motorcycle. Additionally, we have integrated leading functional safety strategies into this software, plus supported WMG in rig testing and have also fully developed the new prototype instrument display. Alongside this electrical and control system work, we have designed a brand-new prototype chassis including main frame and rear frame which have been optimised alongside the battery and motor packages which will be further evolved in Phase 3 into the TE-1 Prototype which will be used as a mule test platform in Phase 4. During this chassis development we have taken into account both the transmission design and the final styling of the TE-1 Prototype, the drawings of which we are pleased to reveal for the first time today. Steve Sargent, Triumphs Chief Product Officer saidThe starting point for us in the TE-1 project was to gather important customer feedback about what riders really want from their motorcycles and understand how an electric motorcycle can provide the experience that riders desire. This includes considering the type of riding, range, feel and nature of power and torque delivery together with the ergonomics and bike controls. Taking all of this feedback into consideration we began the chassis design, focusing on bringing everything together on the TE-1 Prototype in a way that provides a riding experience that is exciting and new but ultimately familiar. We have begun to define the powertrain and battery interaction through the use of software refinement to deliver an exhilarating power delivery and throttle response, which provides great control and feels intuitive to the rider. Overall with the styling we wanted to create something that is fresh and exciting but a natural evolution of the Triumph brand. Something desirable in its own right, with distinctive Triumph DNA and definitely not something that is different just for the sake of being different. Pulling all of this together with the partners we are thrilled to see the progress of such an exciting demonstration vehicle which incorporates the cutting-edge technology needed to guide the strategy for the future roadmap of electric motorcycles from Triumph. The team are proud to be leading such an innovative, strong and dynamic project with a fantastic group of partners which ultimately should set British engineering and design rightly at the forefront of future 2 wheel design.

Tue, 23 Mar 2021 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/harley-davidson-revolution-max-1250-engine-is-tuned-for-adventure The Harley-DavidsonPan America 1250 and Pan America 1250 Special models are powered by the all-new Revolution Max 1250 engine, a liquid-cooled V-Twin designed to offer flexible, engaging performance with a broad powerband that builds to a rush of high-RPM power surging through the redline. The Revolution Max 1250 engine has been tuned specifically to deliver desirable power characteristics for the Pan America 1250 and Pan America 1250 Special models, with an emphasis on smooth low-end torque delivery and low-speed throttle control applicable to off-road riding. Through its history Harley-Davidson has embraced technological evolution while respecting the heritage of our brand, with engines that produce real-world performance for real-life riders,said Harley-Davidson Chief Engineer Alex Bozmoski. The Revolution Max 1250 is a clean-sheet, advanced-design effort that will carry Pan America riders over new horizons with reliability, efficiency, and exciting performance. A focus on performance and weight reduction drove both vehicle and engine architecture, material choices, and aggressive component design optimization. To minimize overall motorcycle weight the engine is integrated into the vehicle as the central member of the chassis. The use of lightweight materials helps achieve a desirable power-to-weight ratio. The Revolution Max 1250 engine is assembled at the Harley-Davidson Pilgrim Road Powertrain Operations facility in Wisconsin. Revolution Max 1250 Engine Displacement: 1250cc Bore x Stroke: 4.13 in. (105 mm) x 2.83 in (72 mm) Horsepower: 150hp Peak Torque: 94 ft. lbs. Peak RPM: 9500 Compression Ratio: 13:1 Revolution Max 1250 Engine Technical Features V-Twin Architecture A V-Twin design provides a narrow powertrain profile that centralizes mass to enhance balance and handling, and also provides ample foot/leg room for the rider. A 60-degree V angle of the cylinders keeps the engine compact while providing space between the cylinders for dual down-draft throttle bodies that maximize air flow and increase performance. Optimized Design for Light Weight Reducing the weight of the powertrain contributes to lower motorcycle weight reducing weight can enhance every aspect of motorcycle performance: efficiency, acceleration, handling and braking. The use of finite element analysis (FEA) and advanced design optimization techniques in the engine design stage minimized material mass in cast and molded components. For example, as the design progressed, material was removed from the starter gear and camshaft drive gears in an effort to lighten these components. Single-piece aluminum cylinders with nickel silicon carbide-surface galvanic coating are a lightweight design feature. Rocker covers, camshaft covers and primary cover are lightweight magnesium. Stressed Member Powertrain The Revolution Max 1250 powertrain is a structural component of the motorcycle chassis. The engine serves two functions providing power and acting as a structural element of the chassis. Eliminating a traditional frame significantly reduces motorcycle weight and results in a very stiff chassis. A front frame element, mid frame element and the tail section bolt directly to the powertrain. The powertrain is designed to be both strong and very rigid so that it can effectively function as a chassis component. The rider realizes optimized performance due to a significant weight savings, a rigid chassis and mass centralization. Liquid Cooling Heat is an enemy of both durability and rider comfort. Liquid cooling the engine maintains a stable and controllable engine and oil temperature for consistent performance in changing environmental and riding situations. Powertrain performance is enhanced by tight component tolerances that can be achieved when engine temperature is controlled (there is less expansion and contraction of metal parts). Desirable engine sounds a stirring exhaust tone can predominate because noise from internal engine sources is reduced by liquid cooling. The engine oil is also liquid cooled, which ensures that engine oil performance and durability will be maintained in challenging conditions. The cooling system is designed to be esthetically pleasing, easy to service and rugged. The coolant pump is internal and features high-performance bearings and seals for extended service life. Coolant passages are integrated into a complex stator cover casting to save weight and reduce powertrain width. A coolant drain plug is recessed and guarded by a foot peg to limit vulnerability to damage in off-road riding situations. Offset Connecting Rod Journals The two crankshaft connecting rod journals are offset by 30 degrees.Harley-Davidson leveraged its extensive experience in flat track racing to help inform the cadence of Revolution Max 1250 engine power pulses. The 30-degree offset creates a 90-degree firing order that produces a smooth power delivery, especially at higher RPM. The cylinders are offset slightly to accommodate the crankshaft design, with the rear cylinder positioned to the riders left on the crankcase, a choice made to enhance ergonomics. The rider may gain control and confidence because the power pulses of a 90-degree firing order may improve traction in some off-road riding situations. The 90-degree firing order produces a stirring exhaust beat. Forged Aluminum Pistons Piston crowns are machined for precise control of compression ratio. The 13:1 compression ratio improves engine torque at all speeds. This high compression ratio is made possible by advanced knock detection sensors. The engine will require premium-grade (91 octane) fuel to make maximum power, but will run on lower-octane fuel and is protected from detonation by the knock sensor technology. The base of the piston is chamfered so no piston ring compression tool is required for installation. The piston skirt has a low-friction coating. Low-tension piston rings reduce friction, which improves performance. The top ring land is anodized to enhance durability. Oil cooling jets are aimed at the bottom of the pistons to help dissipate combustion heat. Four-Valve Cylinder Heads Four-valve cylinder heads (two intake and two exhaust) permit the largest-possible valve area. The rider realizes an optimal performance profile for adventure touring strong bottom-end torque with a smooth transition to peak power because the flow of gasses through the combustion chamber is optimized to match the desired performance requirement and engine displacement. The exhaust valves are sodium-filled to better dissipate heat. Suspended oil passages within the heads are made possible by a complex casting technique, and reduce weight because the head wall thickness is minimized. The cylinder heads are cast from high-strength 354 aluminum alloy. Because the heads act as a chassis mounting point, they are designed to be flexible at that mounting point but rigid over the combustion chamber. This is accomplished in part through targeted heat treating. Double Overhead Camshafts (DOHC) The Revolution Max 1250 engine is equipped with separate intake and exhaust camshafts for each cylinder. The DOHC design facilitates higher-RPM operation by reducing valve train inertia, which produces higher peak horsepower. The DOHC design permits independent Variable Valve Timing (VVT) on the intake and exhaust cam, optimized for the front and rear cylinder, to broaden the powerband. Specific cam profiles are selected to produce the most-desirable performance characteristics. The drive-side camshaft bearing journal is part of the drive sprocket, a design that makes it possible to remove the camshaft for service or a future performance upgrade without disassembling the camshaft drive. The camshaft drive chain guides and sprockets have been optimized to reduce as much mass as possible. The chain tensioner is internally mounted and incorporates design features to minimize start-up clatter. Hydraulic Lash Adjusters The Revolution Max 1250 engine features roller-finger valve actuation with hydraulic lash adjusters. This design ensures that the valves and valve actuators (fingers) are in constant contact as engine heat changes. The hydraulic lash adjusters make the valve train maintenance-free, saving the owner time and cost there is no mechanical adjuster. This design realizes a reduction in undesirable valve train noise, especially on cold starts. This design maintains consistent pressure on the valve stem, which facilitates more-aggressive camshaft profiles which can boost performance. Variable Valve Timing (VVT) The Revolution Max 1250 engine is equipped with computer-controlled Variable Valve Timing (VVT) on both the intake and exhaust camshafts. Through computer control, VVT advances or retards exhaust and intake camshaft timing independently through a potential range of 40 degrees of crankshaft rotation. VVT broadens the overall powerband and improves torque management and efficiency compared to the same engine with fixed valve timing. This allows the same engine to provide both low-end grunt for acceleration off the line as well as the thrill of high-RPM horsepower. VVT may improve fuel efficiency and increase range from each tank of fuel. The timing phaser is located between the cam drive sprocket and the camshaft, and uses a solenoid plunger to control ported hydraulics that change the cam timing. When the engine is shut down, VVT sets intake cams to full retard and exhaust cams to full advance to reduce compression for easier starting. Camshaft position pick-ups are located in the valve covers. Dual Spark Plugs TheRevolution Max 1250 engine is equipped with two spark plugs per cylinder. Dual spark plugs improves ignition of the fuel charge across this wide-bore cylinder. The Revolution Max 1250 engine is equipped with dual side strap spark plugs that are designed to better manage high temperatures in the combustion chambers than a standard spark plug. Dual Down-Draft Throttle Bodies Separate throttle bodies are located between the cylinders, positioned to create minimal turbulence and impedance to air flow. High-velocity air flow into the combustion chamber is optimized for improved performance. Fuel delivery can be optimized individually for each cylinder, which can improve economy and range. The central location of the throttle bodies permits the ideal position of an 11-liter airbox over the engine. Airbox capacity is optimized for engine performance. The airbox is shaped to permit use of tuned velocity stacks over each throttle body that utilize inertia to pack more air mass into the combustion chamber, which can increase power output. The airbox is formed of glass-filled nylon with integrated internal ribs that help quell resonance and muffle intake noise. A forward-facing intake snorkel directs intake noise away from the rider. Silencing intake noise permits desirable exhaust tone to predominate. The circular base of the washable conical air filter provides an optimal seal to the airbox. Robust Oiling System The engine oiling system is scaled to perform well in challenging conditions. The engine features a dry sump oiling system, with the oil reservoir (or sump) incorporated into the crankcase casting below all rotating parts. This increases performance by reducing the parasitic power loss that can occur when a rotating part must pass through an oil bath. Triple oil scavenge pumps evacuate excess oil from three engine cavities crankcase, stator cavity and clutch cavity. The rider gains optimal performance as parasitic power loss is reduced because internal engine components do not have to rotate through excess oil. A windage tray prevents the clutch from aerating engine oil, which could degrade oil delivery. The oil feed pump is fitted with a large-capacity screen able to filter debris for the lifespan of the motorcycle. The oil pump is designed to pull vacuum in the crankcase, which can further reduce internal engine friction because lighter piston ring pressure is required to minimize combustion blow-by. Oil delivery to main bearings and connecting rod bearings is delivered through the center of the crankshaft, a design that enables low oil pressure (60-70 psi) that reduces parasitic power loss at high RPM. Fully Balanced Powertrain Internal balancers cancel most engine vibration to enhance rider comfort and improve vehicle durability. Primary balancer: This spiral-shaped, chain-driven balancer located in the crankcase manages the primary vibration created by the crank pins, pistons and connecting rods, and also a rolling couple, or side-to-side imbalance, caused by the off-set cylinders. Secondary balancer: A small balancer located in the front cylinder head between the camshafts complements the primary balancer to further reduce vibration. The balancers are tuned to retain just enough vibration to make the motorcycle feel alive. Engine balancing contributes to weight reduction and motorcycle performance because engine components do not have to be designed to withstand stress inputs from vibration. Clutch and Transmission The Revolution Max is a unitized powertrain, meaning that the engine and six-speed transmission are housed in a common case. The clutch is mechanically actuated with a large-diameter cable for smooth, consistent disengagement and minimal drag. The clutch assist function offers a lighter feel at the clutch lever while maintaining the ability to transmit full torque and power to the transmission. The clutch features eight friction plates designed to provide consistent engagement at maximum torque throughout the life of the clutch. A clutch slipper function enables the rider to downshift without over-speeding the engine or slipping or hopping the rear wheel. To minimize NVH (noise vibration harshness) the primary gear assembly was designed to achieve the optimal balance of sound quality and performance. A custom-designed scissor gear reduces both backlash and gear meshing noise. Compensation springs in the primary gear smooth out torque pulses from the crankshaft before they reach the transmission, providing consistent torque delivery. The six-speed transmission shift system features roller bearings to support the shift drum and Teflon-coated shift shaft support bushings to minimize frictional losses and optimize shift quality. Internal shift components are durable but also as light as possible to improve shift quality and acceleration by minimizing power losses during shift events. The semi-dry transmission cavity reduces parasitic power loss and increases fuel economy for the customer because gears are not churning through oil.

Starting from 21,000.00 Tue, 09 Mar 2021 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/the-coyote-a-tough-custom-bmw-for-the-roughest-of-terrain- They say coyotes are smart and adaptable. A real tough dog and survivor that is at home on all types of terrain. Even in the desert, its wild howling can be heard. Karles Vives, a customizer from Spain at Fuel Bespoke Motorcycles, was fascinated by coyote dogs and felt sufficiently inspired to name his conversion of anR nineTUrban G/S after the predatory animal. Howl if you want. The Coyote by Fuel Motorcycles is a tough old dog for the roughest of terrain. Light, classic, aggressive. Nothing can be created out of nothing. That's why customizer Karles Vives needs a few drafts before he's satisfied with a design. Yet the final draft is far from the end. Once the design has been decided upon, everything else is just a matter of parts, which Karles has to obtain for the next stage and which he may have to customize. At this point, it may be necessary to deviate from the original idea. "But the end result is very close to the draft of the design," the Spaniard relates, satisfied with hisR nineTG/S upgrade. He created the Coyote bike within five months with his mechanic Claudio and a few other specialists who got involved. Ideally, he would have liked to have just ridden it to his own garage and parked it there. "I like the shape of the motorcycle. It's much lighter, with a classic yet aggressive look." Coyote is consciously based on bikes from the 1950s, on which hard-nosed riders traversed the deserts of America riding what were actually road bikes that had been converted for off-road use. Typical features include the higher exhaust system enabling protection from stone swirl an engine guard and a high bench, ideal for supporting riders on endless sections of rough terrain. "It is much more common to hear a coyote than to see it." Everything in line. The greatest challenge for Karles is converting the fuel tank. A smaller, lighter tank is required so the customizers modify the tank of an old Suzuki GT 250. But the original electric fuel pump has to be dismantled first and refitted elsewhere before the new tank will fit. His team also install an auxiliary fuel tank so the fuel pump, which is connected with the main fuel tank, can be housed in it. An additional construction is required to attach tank and bench at one height and set them in line. At the rear too, the makers ofFuel Bespoke Motorcyclesmodify the frame, adding a rear bar to give the motorcycle a classic scrambler look. The seat bench in natural leather and suede blends in harmoniously. The Hollywood handlebars, the small headlight from a classic Spanish enduro with a chrome grille guard and chrome mudguards lend the Coyote a unique charm. The manifold pipes and exhaust are hand-made. The convertedR nineTUrban G/S is rounded off by mini LED indicators, footrests by SW Motech and cylinder head covers with a retro look byBMW Motorrad. The chassis has been optimized with an adjustable hydraulic cartridge for the front forks by Andreani and a rear shock absorber by hlins (46 DRL BM 641). Karles opted for Continental TKC 80tyres all-purpose tyres for all surfaces, on or off-road. Experience a great adventure. "We love the look of old dirt bikes," explains Karles, who started upgrading old boxers to scrambler and dirt track bikes in summer 2011. His first ever project was a BMW R 100 RT. The main idea was to create a comfortable bike with a cool look without spending too much money. "I made a decision in favour of the scrambler style. It is a perfect bike that will take you on a great adventure because it can be driven on nearly all types of roads. This was the birth of the R 100 Scram, when the company Fuel Bespoke Motorcycles was founded. Since then Karles has expanded the team to include professional engineers and collaborates with select paint experts and welders to create a product of the highest standard with respect to mechanics and design. Once a year he organises a trip to Africa for nostalgic scrambler riders - the Scram Africa takes participants on around 2000 kilometres through Morocco. Ideal coyote terrain too. The engine's already howling. Ow-oooh!

Unmistakable design that is distinct from all others that is the new Spirit of Passion by Kingston Custom. After Roland Sands, Dirk Oehlerking lends the BMW R 18 his inimitable signature with the second R18 gem in the SoulFuel series, a collaboration between BMW Motorrad and selected customisers. Previously, a sensation was also caused by an R 18 conversion created by Bernhard Naumann also known as Blechmann. Oehlerkings Kingston Custom is well-known for its extreme customising. Anyone expecting a complete rebuild of the R 18 will be in for a surprise, however. The BMW R 18 is so perfect that I left the technology as it is. The frame is 100 % original and so sophisticated that nothing should be changed here, says Oehlerking. But the bike has still been transformed into an unmistakable Kingston Custom conversion. The Spirit of Passion in detail. The biggest eye-catcher and also the greatest challenge is the Kingston fairing. The bodywork is finished in handmade Kingston design, as are the handlebars and mudguard. The BMW R 18 exhaust has been modified by Oehlerking in Kingston Roadster style, while his saddle is drawn from the range of universal accessories. The turn indicators have been replaced with Kellermann indicators and the LED front headlight is now integrated in the fairing. The original paintwork and lines have been adopted for the fairing and wing, with the addition of some details in Kingston style. The wheel suspension and fuel tank are original. The design as a whole is based on classic art deco style. BMW R 18: the original. Thanks to its extremely conversion-friendly architecture, the BMW R 18 is predestined for customising. The R 18 features a pronounced historical reference, technically and visually echoing famous models such as the BMW R 5 and refocussing on motorbike essentials: purist, no-frills technology and of course the big boxer. Motorbike racer, designer and craftsman Dirk Oehlerking demonstrates once again in his Spirit of Passion that he not only understands his craft but has embraced it in his work for over 35 years. For him, the design process begins long before the first screws are applied or sketches are made: I put a lot of thought into it beforehand. My motorbikes always convey soul, charm and character. Theyre outstanding specimens, so they require great care and attention. I have a constant stream of images running past my minds eye when it comes to deciding what style I want to focus on. Once Ive made that choice, I start with a sketch in pencil and Tipp-Ex. Then I keep going until I know in my heart of hearts: thats precisely it!

Our two brands represent a long heritage of passionate, performance and lifestyle driven consumers." Jackson continued, "This new audio system is on a whole different level for the rider. Our two teams worked hard on developing a system that was not only better sounding, but provided output, clarity, definition, and bass response during the riding experience. It is a new benchmark in performance." "In order to create a truly rider-focused sound system our engineering teams measured both the rider positioning as well as audio performance at varying speeds. From that came the design for several proprietary technologies that work together to form a fully optimized rider experience", commentedJake Braaten, VP of Business and Product Development. To provide this next level audio experience the focus on sound projection came from location specific, mirror imaged left and right speakers that were further enhanced for the rider. Rockford then integrated an advanced DSP with R-Tune, a proprietary motorcycle equalization designed to be stronger and louder to overcome road rumble and wind noise. A unique M-DEQ (Motorcycle Dynamic EQ) was developed to work in concert by adaptively changing EQ points in real time to ensure incredible sound quality no matter the speed or riding conditions. To address one of the biggest hurdles of motorcycle audio, BME (Bass Management Enhancement) was implemented to continuously adapt to speed and road noise to maximize bass output at any volume or speed. Harley-Davidson Audio powered by Rockford Fosgate will be offered as 2, 4, 6, or 8 speakers systems powered by up to two 400-watt amplifiers. Riders may choose from either a Stage 1 two-way speakers or Stage 2 three-way speakers featuring a woofer, bridge mounted tweeter, and a mid-range driver. All products can be easily configured and tailored with the Harley Davidson powered by Rockford Fosgate app. They will also be offered as a parts option for certain models dating back to 2014.

Thu, 14 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/bmw-motorrad-definition-ce-04-the-new-style-of-urban-two-wheel-mobility- Munich.With the BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04, the BMW Group is presenting the near-series version of the BMW Motorrad Concept Link at #NEXTGen 2020. As a link between the analogue and digital worlds of the user, the BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04 is both a means of transport and a means of communication for the urban commuter. With its electric drive, trailblazing design and innovative connectivity solutions, it sets out to redefine the scooter segment. "Plugged to life" - electrically powered and plugged to the rider's life. The electrically powered BMW Motorrad Concept Definition CE 04 has been consistently developed and adapted to meet the everyday needs and requirements of the customer. True to the motto "Plugged to life" it combines the customers analogue world with the digital one. In conjunction with the corresponding intelligent rider equipment, a holistic, highly emotional and newly conceived mobility experience is created. "Electric mobility is a central drive system for the BMW Group and we are consistently relying on this technology in our sustainability strategy. Electric drives are also a current topic for BMW Motorrad, especially for the urban environment. Since 2013, we have been a pioneer in this area with the BMW C evolution scooter. The BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04 is the logical continuation of the electromobility strategy for urban conurbations and provides a concrete preview of what a contemporary production vehicle could look like, with which we will take two-wheel electric mobility in metropolitan areas to a new level, both technically and visually," explains Edgar Heinrich, Head of Design at BMW Motorrad. Innovative architecture and trailblazing design. The segment-defining design of the Definition CE 04 stands for a new, urban aesthetic. While the BMW Motorrad Concept Link in 2017 still seemed like a vision far from the future, the BMW Motorrad Definition CE04 in 2020 transfers the radical design of the Concept Link to production readiness with almost unchanged design. "We have managed to transfer many innovative elements and details of the concept into the series. The technical realities of electric drive such as the flat energy packs in the underfloor and the compact drive train allow us to create a highly distinctive design which defines a new, urban aesthetic and which differentiates itself clearly from conventional styling. A design that follows the basic needs for simple functionality, clear aesthetics and the digital reality todays users live in. The new architecture has led to a visual revolution and has produced many new design themes. Maybe it will polarise, but it will definitely stand out," continues Alexander Buckan, Head of Vehicle Design BMW Motorrad. Visually, the BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04 clearly breaks with the look of scooters as we know them. Instead, an elongated, low vehicle body and the diagonally rising front end create a silhouette that is as modern as it is clear. The generous, calm surface design with sharply defined edges blends perfectly into modern, urban surroundings. The flat battery in the underbody provides new freedoms, such as the new storage solution, which is illuminated and can be folded open from the side. It gives the rider easy access for storing a helmet and other equipment. In addition, the low position of the flat battery provides a favourable centre of gravity, which ensures playful handling and dynamic riding fun. Clear shapes and modern technology interpreted in timeless style. Clear lines, generous surfaces and distinctive design underline the modern impression of the proportions. This is further enhanced by the use of two colours: beneath the modern surface finish in Mineral White metallic, a matt black area forms the core of the vehicle, the technical heart. It stretches from the front to the rear and, in addition to the tyres and front lights, also integrating the drive unit and the suspension elements. The BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04 deliberately stages the bikes technology as part of the design. That is why the side panels dont completely cover the vehicles side section at the rear. Instead they stretch across parts of the vehicles side like little wings allowing views of the drive unit, cooling ribs, single-sided swing arm, spring strut and tooth belt. The design of the lights is as reduced as it is modern. The two U-shaped LED front lights are characterised by minimalist design. Their clear-cut layout and the slim contours accentuate the modern and trailblazing visual appeal of the front section. The rear lights have been integrated into the rear side panels in the form of two C-shaped light elements. Practice-oriented design and ergonomics. A scooter is not a fun bike which is taken for ride in the mountains in fine weather, but a practical everyday vehicle for driving from home to the office or meeting friends in the evening - simply a vehicle for every day in the city," says Alexander Buckan. "Thats why we dealt intensively with the design of the drive and energy storage system in order to make it meet the needs of the actual user: The urban target group mainly rides short distances of approx. 12 km per day. Long-distance comfort is therefore less important than variable ergonomics and easy accessibility. In this way we were able to create a floating seat bench seat, which allows you to glide comfortably onto the vehicle even from behind. It also offers improved ergonomics for single riders, regardless of leg length and height." Seamless connectivity. Both with regard to design and digital use, the BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04 always focuses on practical and user-friendly solutions. BMW Motorrad sees great potential in the interaction between vehicle and rider equipment in terms of safety, comfort and emotional experience. The rider is connected to his environment through his smartphone via the BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04. Its 10.25 inch display is the largest in the scooter segment to date and acts as an interface between the digital and analogue worlds of the rider. BMW Motorrad e-mobility. Following the BMW Group's sustainability strategy, BMW Motorrad also aspires to consistently pursue electromobility. With the Concept e, BMW Motorrad already showed in 2011 what electromobility can look like in the urban environment. This was followed by the first prototype of the BMW C evolution in London, which was presented during the Summer Olympics in 2012. BMW Motorrad was the first-ever manufacturer in the premium segment to launch the series-production vehicle C Evolution in 2014, which made daily commute to work on two wheels purely electric. But that was just the beginning. For the successor model, designers and developers were given a free hand. The result: a completely new architecture and iconic design. With the BMW Motorrad Concept Link, the brand has already shown what the future of emission-free, urban single-track mobility can look like. The BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04 now continues BMW Motorrad's electromobility strategy for urban conurbations and thus provides a concrete preview of what a contemporary production vehicle could look like.

I was surrounded by naked and supersport bike riders who all looked twice at me as I made easy work of it, even with panniers and top box. The Tarmac was better than Ive seen on some circuits, so the tyre performance was perfect. Nice and easy does itIt struck me just how effortless this bike is to ride as I surged to the top of the Edelweissspitze. Its a tricky, paved and crowded track which runs into the Groglockner. Then I swept into the corners on the Silvretta-Hochalpenstrae and into the no-limits Autobahns. Heated everything!On the Autobahn to Passau I was surprised by a terrible storm in summer! Unfortunately, Id removed the waterproof layer of my jacket and left my GoreTex boots at home. I was soaked by the time I stopped at a petrol station where I changed my gloves, T-shirt and put on a waterproof layer. But my boots were like a swimming pool and I still had around 300km to ride so I knew that even being at 17 I was going to be cold. Then more rain for three hours. Solution? Switching on the heated grips and then also the heated seat. Damn that straw lorry!The five-position screen might not sound important but hear me out. Because Im not tall and I prefer not to see everything through the screen, I used to set the screen on the lowest position. However, I discovered that its really nice to be able to put it up as when starts to rain, its cold or the truck in front of you decides to dump part of its straw load. Boxing cleverIt was really helpful to carry all my stuff in the Explorer panniers, as attaching or removing them takes literally 10 seconds. I used the top box to carry what I needed during the day for accessibility and stored my helmet inside when I stopped anywhere. That was until I realised in Germany and Austria, everybody leaves their helmet hanging on the mirror, however expensive it is! Cruise ControlIm not used to using it but, on the autobahn heading back to Frankfurt, it was pretty cool to connect the cruise control and have a hand free for some stretching exercises. Guide the waySo many picture opportunities mean you might finish riding at night, when the fog lights are an instant miracle. After the GP, I had dinner with friends and the one leading the group in the dark with me behind admitted he saw the road better with my lights than his. Perfect settingsIve never been good testing chassis or suspensions. To be honest, most times I never adjust them and Im ok with the factory settings. But the bike was perfect with both panniers and the top box fully loaded. Old school?Not any more I was a bit, yes. I kept forgetting to use the riding modes, but they were perfect, especially in Rain mode during the downpour from Frankfurt to Passau, and Sport mode on the Alpine roads. Anti-stress joystickNo, its not another Triumph breakthrough, yet. But, when youre riding six hours a day, its great to be able to check so much information using the TFT joystick on the bars. I regularly checked riding time, fuel range (stressful but important if its a Bank Holiday and fuel stations are closed) and temperature that changed from 8 to 24 in a few hours between Italy and Austria. Attention-grabberNot sure if it was the bike or just being a woman riding alone, but I got a lot of attention from riders everywhere I stopped. Its a great way to start conversations which usually concluded with me explaining that Im Spanish, not German. Its a terrain-busterThe Alpine Roads are the closest thing to a theme park for riders but whatever the weather, altitude, temperature or challenge, the Tiger roars its defiance.

Sun, 20 Dec 2020 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/harley-davidson-pushes-ev-technology-to-the-edges-of-the-earth-with-the-2020-livewire-motorcycle How the LiveWire motorcycle took on the world... The Harley-Davidson LiveWire model is an exhilarating electric motorcycle that pushes the boundaries of performance, technology and design in the two-wheel world. When an opportunity presented itself to Harley-Davidson to showcase the LiveWire motorcycle's capabilities and performance in the most extreme conditions, H-D seized the challenge for the unheralded 13,000 mile off-road trek. The process to accomplish this journey is documented through Harley-Davidsons podcast series. This six-part series documents how near-production LiveWire models were modified to shred dirt roads, single track, and desert trails over 13,000 miles of extreme off-road conditions. "Harley-Davidson stands for the timeless pursuit of adventure, said Jochen Zeitz, Chairman, President and CEO, Harley-Davidson. This podcast series is a premier showcase for how Harley-Davidsons talented staff of engineers and designers go above and beyond in their mission to create motorcycles that unlock adventures wherever they may lead. These efforts can be experienced in the 2020 LiveWire - a shining example of how Harley-Davidson innovates to lead in the electrification of motorcycling. Its an experience that can only be truly understood after riding it. Utilizing the same talented Harley-Davidson engineers and designers that developed the LiveWire motorcycle, a select group was assembled from the broader development team to modify near-production LiveWire models to complete the journey. Together, this team designed, modified, and assembled a motorcycle in under 30 days. After initial testing, the team incorporated feedback to finalize ergonomic and storage systems on the bikes. In 60 days, the motorcycles were headed to the southern tip of Argentina. The modified LiveWire motorcycles used production specification RESS (Rechargeable Energy Storage System) hardware, chassis, and Harley-Davidson Revelation powertrain components. In addition, the motorcycles were modified with prototype rotors, wheels, and tires from the upcoming Harley-Davidson Pan America adventure touring motorcycle, and custom windshield, rear shock, and triple clamps made specifically for this project. Before delivery, both modified LiveWire motorcycles were evaluated at Harley-Davidsons Willie G. Davidson Product Development Center for initial testing and ridden under similar development validation conditions at Harley-Davidson's Proving Grounds facility. Contact us about the LiveWire here.

Wed, 09 Dec 2020 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/reasons-to-ride-the-new-trident-660 Powering Triumph into a class leading position, with the only triple engine in the category, giving thrilling torque delivery, a hair-raising triple soundtrack and class-leading handling, the Trident 660 is the perfect entry point into the Triumph motorcycle range, offering a high specification ride at incredible value. 1. THRILLING TRIPLE ENGINE PERFORMANCE Central to the Trident 660s power, agility and thrilling performance is its 660cc engine; a Triumph triple-cylinder that delivers the perfect balance of strong torque (that is evident from low-down and right up through the range) which peaks at 64Nm @ 6,250 rpm and exhilarating high-end power which peaks at 81PS @10,250 rpm. In terms of ride quality, theres an effortless feel to the Trident 660. Its smooth slick 6-speed gearbox has been optimised for fun and rideability, while the slip and assist clutch provides a light action clutch that reduces rider fatigue, allowing you to enjoy riding this remarkable bike for even longer. 2. CATEGORY-LEADING TECHNOLOGY AS STANDARD The Trident 660s multi-functional instruments with colour TFT display provide all key information in a compact and uncluttered design for easy at-a-glance interaction while riding. The display has been designed specifically for the optional accessory-fit connectivity system that enables turn-by-turn navigation, GoPro control, plus phone and music interaction via the switchgear all clearly displayed on the TFT screen. The new Trident 660 benefits from category-leading rider electronics, including Road and Rain riding modes, which adjust the bikes throttle and traction control maps for maximum rider control (with Rain mode bringing a softer map for improved safety), ride-by-wire throttle for crisp, precise throttle response, switchable traction control which manages power and torque when traction is compromised and Triumphs latest generation ABS for additional rider safety. Full LED lighting produces better performance for maximum rider safety. The new distinctively-styled 7 LED headlight has been uniquely designed for the Trident 660, while the compact and integrated rear light has been contoured to the shape of the tail unit. Self-cancelling slim LED indicators add to the Trident 660s high level of rider convenience (local market restrictions may apply). 3. AGILE, SPORTY & CONFIDENCE-INSPIRING RIDE Being a Triumph motorcycle, the Trident delivers a confidence-inspiring ride thats easy to control with incredibly reassuring handling, thrilling performance and fantastic reliability. With its light steering weight you get a sure-footed bike thats manoeuvrable, agile and fun to ride, and its high specification suspension and braking combine perfectly with the lightweight 17 sporty cast aluminium wheels for maximum agility. As soon as you get onto this bike youll notice the relaxed riding ergonomics, because everything about the Trident 660 is designed to be your perfect everyday ride. The comfortable and practical twin seat has an accessible seat height of 805mm, while the bikes narrow width encourages a confidence-inspiring standover position with easy access to footpegs, and a span-adjustable brake lever offers additional longer-ride comfort. The Trident 660s superior combination of suspension, tyres and brakes brings a comfortable, confidence inspiring ride, including: High specification Showa suspension system (black upside-down front forks with 120mm front wheel travel, and preload adjustable monoshock rear suspension unit delivering 133.5mm travel) Versatile Michelin Road 5 tyres fitted as standard ensuring performance and confidence in wet and dry conditions Great stopping power from the Nissin braking system 2-piston sliding front calipers with twin 310mm discs and single rear caliper & disc 4. INCREDIBLE VALUE The Trident 660s class-leading level of standard technology, high specification suspension, brakes and tyres, agile confidence-inspiring ride, thrilling triple engine performance, unique styling and very competitive price, together make this the perfect middleweight motorcycle choice - and the perfect entry point into the Triumph range. A class-leading service interval of 10,000 miles (or 12 months) also contributes to the incredibly low cost of ownership. 5. DISTINCTIVE STYLE Incorporating Triumphs design DNA with clean dynamic lines, this is a truly stunning motorcycle with a distinctive sporty and muscular stance and attitude. The Trident 660 is available in four different colour schemes: Crystal White or Sapphire Black, both with contrasting decals, or twin colour options of Matt Jet Black & Matt Silver Ice or Silver Ice & Diablo Red. The bike is styled with features that elevate the Trident 660s distinctive good looks, including a 14-litre fuel tank design with sculpted knee cut-outs, five-spoke black wheels cast in lightweight aluminium, and a minimalist rear end with swingarm-mounted number plate hanger and rear indicators. Contrasting painted radiator cowls, yokes and heel guards, plus body-coloured fork protectors, tapered aluminium handlebars and teardrop-shaped mirrors all add to the exceptional level of finish on this bike. Premium Triumph branding adds outstanding finishing touches. An inset aluminium Trident 660 badge with diamond-machined detail lettering is complemented by a machined Triumph badge on the fuel filler cap, a Triumph badge on the headlight and tail-light, Triumph-branded handlebar clamp and Triumph branding on the bikes TFT instrument display face.(market restrictions may apply). 6. GENUINE ACCESSORIES You can personalise your new Trident 660 by choosing from a whole range of genuine Triumph accessories, developed alongside the bike itself and subjected to the same rigorous quality and testing processes. With over 45 on offer, including new Trident 660 luggage, the My Triumph Connectivity System (for navigation, GoPro control, phone and music operation), and accessories that bring even more comfort, protection and style, you can enhance your Trident 660 in a multitude of ways. The Trident 660 can be fitted with an optional A2 licence conversion kit that restricts performance to levels suitable for A2 licence holders. This includes A2-specific APS twist grip and unique engine tune, restricting peak power to 47.8 PS (35 kw) at 8750 rpm and peak torque to 59 Nm at 5250 rpm. A Triumph dealership can de-restrict the bike to its full power. Triumph Genuine Accessories include a two-year unlimited mileage warranty as standard.

Tue, 01 Dec 2020 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/the-bmw-g-310-r-challenge-your-city THE BMW G 310 R CHALLENGE YOUR CITY Wake up with a smile on your face. Because every day is an opportunity to try something new with the BMW G 310 R. The complete package has everything you need and now comes with a modern daytime running light. It is an intuitive, agile ride thanks to the optimised engine with Ride by Wire and slipper clutch, whether you are off to work, to an appointment, or out of the city. Experience the manoeuvrability, easy handling, and sportiness of the G 310 R and surpass yourself with it every single day. HIGHLIGHTS FOR DYNAMIC RIDING ENJOYMENT The strength of the G 310 R is in its lightness and agility. The 313 ccm single-cylinder four-stroke engine not only delivers fun in the big-city tumult, but also when you are redefining the city limits when changing corners quickly. Experience the agility The unconventional single-cylinder engine has a special design: The cylinder head has been rotated 180 degrees backwards, which pushes the vehicles centre of gravity towards the front wheel. This makes the G 310 R more agile and easier to control. With the new electronic gas system Ride by Wire the throttle response is also always stable. And the self-reinforcing slipper clutch makes switching gears child's play when you are stuck in heavy traffic. In addition, thanks to the effective combustion and secondary air system, this bike meets the strict Euro 5 standards. Sporty genes Good looks run in the family because the G 310 R carries the DNA of the BMW S 1000 R. With its bare design, it wears its heart on its sleeve and thus stands for lightness, precision, and a pure riding experience. The Sport style emphasises the unmistakable racing look of the bike in particular. The engine area now comes in Titanium grey metallic. It gives the G 310 R its modern finish in combination with the footrest plates and pillion passenger grips. To find out more about this bike or enquire, contact your local store here.

Tue, 17 Nov 2020 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lind.co.uk/news/bmw-updates-the-r-ninet-bike-lineup For 2021 Model Year, BMW has tweaked theR nineTmodel lineup (R nineT, Pure, Scrambler, and Urban G/S) to comply with Euro5 emissions standards. To achieve that, BMW redesigned the cylinder heads which will increase fuel efficiency. BMW also updated the cylinder head cover to give it a different look. Its peak power output is now 80 kW (109 hp) at 7250 rpm (previously 81 kW (110 hp) at 7750 rpm), while the maximum torque is still 116 Nm at 6000 rpm.Thanks to an even more full-bodied power and torque curve especially in the range between 4000 and 6000 rpm pulling power levels are now tangibly better than those of the predecessor. Even in the standard version, the new R nineT models now feature ABS Pro in combination with DBC (Dynamic Brake Control) for increased safety when braking at banking angles as well as in difficult situations. Standard features also include a new shock absorber with travel-dependent damping (WAD), providing enhanced suspension comfort and convenient adjustment of the spring preload via a hand wheel. Rain and Road riding modes are now included as standard, too. WATCH NOW The analog and digital gauges have also been updated with indicator lights that are visible only when illuminated. Standard are also the LED lighting and a USB charging socket. MW offers a number of options and packages. Riding Modes Pro with the additional modes Dyna for the R nineT and R nineT Pure and Dirt for the RnineT Scrambler and R nineT Urban G/S are now available as new individual options, as are DTC (Dynamic Traction Control) and engine drag torque control (MSR). Another new option is the Comfort Package, comprising Riding Modes Pro, cruise control and heated handlebar grips.

The enhancements for the R nineT model family are rounded off with new standard and optional paint finishes. The Edition 40 Years GS of the R nineT Urban G/S is especially significant here.

Starting its life as a Speed Twin before getting a Thruxton R front end transplant, the Jack Lilley Customs (JLC) Speed Twin combines an understated black paint scheme with high specification running gear making it a popular choice with Triumph West London customers. Triumph West London has always been at the heart of the custom scene offering bespoke builds under the guise of JL Customs. The JLC conversion pack has always been a firm customer favourite, so for this competition they chose to base their design on this and take the bespoke feel to the next level. This pack augments the classic Speed Twin with Ohlins Front Forks, Ohlins Rear Suspension, Brembo Brakes, LSL Top Yoke and Free Spirits tail tidy. The team then painted the front and rear fenders in gloss black to match the tank and treated the wheels to some gold paint. The finishing touch was some SC Project exhausts for just the right amount of noise. The JLC was designed by Tom Daniels and built by Davide, who gave themselves an extra challenge by building it live on Facebook and in the showroom!"

Fri, 09 Oct 2020 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/bmw-m-1000-rrthe-first-m-model-from-bmw-motorrad The new BMW M 1000 RR referred to as M RR in short is the first M model from BMW Motorrad and is based on the S 1000 RR. With an engine output of 156 kW (212 HP) at 14,500 rpm, a DIN vehicle kerb weight of only 192 kg and a suspension and aerodynamics designed for maximum race track performance, the new M RR meets the main expectations in the top segment of Superbikes. The Engine The new M RR uses a water-cooled four-cylinder in-line engine based on the RR power train with BMW ShiftCam technology for varying valve timing and valve lift that has been modified comprehensively in the direction of a racing sport engine.The maximum torque of 113 Nm is applied at 11,000 rpm. In addition to a maximum speed increased to 15,100 rpm, the M RR engine has extensive technical optimizations such as new 2-ring forged pistons from Mahle, adapted combustion chambers, compression increased to 13.5, longer and lighter titanium connecting rods from Pankl, slimmer and lighter rocker arms, fully machined intake ports with new duct geometry as well as optimizations on camshafts and intake area. The lightweight exhaust system is also made of titanium. The new M RR engine is even more powerful than the RR power train in the range from 6,000 rpm to 15,100 rpm. The aerodynamics play an important role in the new M 1000 RR. The M winglets on the trim front, which were developed during intensive testing on the race track and in the BMW Groups wind tunnel and are made of clear-coat carbon, take this into account as they produce aerodynamic downforce and thus additional wheel loads according to the speed. The additional wheel load on the front wheel counteracts wheelie inclination, traction control regulates less, more driving power is converted into acceleration and the driver achieves faster lap times. The effect of the winglets is also noticeable in curves and when braking, the downforce allows later braking and ensures increased cornering stability. The Chassis The chassis of the new M RR is based on the RR with the bridge frame made of aluminum at its centerpiece. It has an optimized upside-down fork as well as a revised central spring strut with blue spring and Full Floater Pro kinematics. Special attention was paid to optimizing drivability, the braking and anti-squat control as well as the best possible feeling of the driver for the front and rear wheel. M brakes for the first time at BMW Motorrad The new M RR gets M brakes for the first time. Externally, the M brake calipers have a blue anodized coating in combination with the M logo. With the M carbon wheels, the new M RR has more high-tech components for maximum performance on the race track and road. For those who are still not satisfied with the new M RR in standard trim, the M competition package provides a fascinating mixture of classy components for the racing technology gourmet and the aesthete at the same time. In addition to the M GPS laptrigger software and the corresponding activation code, the M competition package also includes the M milled parts package, the M carbon package as well as a silver 220 g lighter swinging arm, the friction-optimized, maintenance-free and DLC-coated M Endurance chain and the passenger package including tail-hump cover. The instrument cluster of the new M RR has the same basic design as the RR and has an M start animation. As part of the optional equipment, an activation code (contents of M competition package) can be used to provide comprehensive data material for the use of the M GPS laptrigger and M GPS data logger (Original BMW Motorrad Accessories) via the OBD interface of the instrument cluster. The new M RR emphasizes its racing genes with the light white solid paint/M Sport colour scheme in the basic colours light blue, dark blue and red. Further features of the M RR are the engine covers in granite grey and the fuel filler cap painted black.

With the new R 18, BMW Motorrad now enters the cruiser segment. Like no other BMW motorcycle before it, this model stands entirely in the tradition of historical BMW motorcycles both technically and in terms of design style. It borrows from famous models such as the BMW R 5 both technologically and visually, shifting the focus back onto the motorcycle essentials: purist, no-frills technology and the boxer engine as the epicentre of riding pleasure, combined with good vibrations. What is more, classic design is combined in the R 18 with clear-cut yet contemporary technology to create a fascinating overall concept offering a riding experience that is as cultivated as it is emotional. The most powerful BMW boxer engine of all time with abundant torque. The centrepiece the new BMW R 18 is a newly developed 2-cylinder boxer engine the Big Boxer. Both its impressive appearance and its technology reflect a continuation of the traditional air-cooled boxer engines that have offered an inspiring riding experience since BMW Motorrad began production in 1923. The most powerful 2-cylinder boxer engine ever used in motorcycle series production has a displacement of 1 802 cc. The peak output is 67kW(91hp) at 4750 rpm. From 2,000 to 4,000 rpm, over 150 Nm of torque is available at all times, and this elemental pulling power is combined with a full, resonant sound. Double-loop steel tube frame and rear swingarm with enclosed axle drive in rigid-frame look. The centrepiece of the suspension in the new R 18 is a double-loop steel tube frame. Its design perpetuates the longstanding BMW Motorrad tradition of this frame type. Outstanding manufacturing quality and a meticulous attention to detail is also evident in unapparent features such as the welded joints between the steel tubes and the cast or forged parts. Like the legendary BMW R 5, the rear swingarm sporting a comparable design surrounds the rear axle transmission in authentic style by means of bolted connections. Telescopic fork with fork sleeves, cantilever suspension strut, wire-spoked wheels and disc brakes. The suspension elements of the new BMW R 18 deliberately dispense with electronic adjustment options. Instead, a telescopic fork and a directly mounted central suspension strut with travel-dependent damping and adjustable spring preload ensure superior wheel control and attractive suspension comfort. As in the legendary BMW R 5, the tubes of the telescopic fork are encased in fork sleeves. The fork tube diameter is 49 mm, while the suspension travel is 120 mm at the front and 90 mm at the rear. The new BMW R 18 braking system consists of a twin disc brake at the front and a single disc brake at the rear in conjunction with four-piston fixed callipers. Meanwhile the wire-spoked wheels ensure a supremely stylish appearance. Harmonious ergonomics for optimum vehicle control. In keeping with the BMW Motorrad philosophy, the new BMW R 18 features a laid-back positioning of the footrests so-called mid-mounted footpegs. This classic position behind the cylinders is not only typical of BMW, it also enables a relaxed and active riding position for optimum vehicle control. Three riding modes along with ASC and MSR for a high degree of riding pleasure and safety as standard. Reverse assist and Hillstart Control as ex factory options The new R 18 also offers the three standard riding modes Rain, Roll and Rock unusual in this segment so as to be able to adapt to individual rider preferences. The standard trim also includes ASC (Automatic Stability Control, disengageable), which ensures a high level of riding safety. In addition, the new R 18 is equipped as standard with engine drag torque control (MSR). Among other options, a reverse assist makes manoeuvring convenient, while the Hill Start Control function facilitates uphill starts. The new R18: iconic style newly showcased, featuring a rigid-frame look, modern technology and authentic materials. The R 18 masterfully transposes the iconic style of bygone times to the present day, retaining a purist design in numerous details that is mainly influenced by classics such as the BMW R 5. It is no coincidence that functional and stylistic elements such as the double-loop frame, the tear-drop tank, the open-running driveshaft and the pinstriped paintwork (ex factory option) are reminiscent of the legendary boxer dating back to 1936. The classic bodywork features of the R 18 are also made of metal as befits an authentic classic. The suspension is likewise aptly reminiscent of the legendary R 5. Together with the double-sided swingarm and a cantilever suspension strut, the rigid-frame concept of the R 5 is perfectly transported into the modern age in visual terms. The R 18 First Edition: exclusive look in paint and chrome. The new R 18 will be offered worldwide as an exclusive R 18 First Edition right from launch, with a standard model reserved additionally for certain markets. It combines the R 18 look with exclusive equipment features in a classic black finish with white pinstriped paintwork. Other highlights include numerous chrome surfaces, a seat badge and a First Edition chrome clasp on the side covers. Conversion-friendly design as a prerequisite for straightforward customising and optimum individualisation. More so than virtually any other motorcycle, the new R 18 offers a highly conversion-friendly design a focus even in the early design phases of the basic motorcycle layout. As a result it is equipped with an easily removable rear frame and a simple-to-dismantle painted part set. Carefully conceived attachment points for the hydraulic lines of the brake, clutch and cable harness likewise allow easy installation of higher or lower handlebars in conjunction with matching hydraulic lines and cable harnesses. In addition, the visible valve covers (cylinder head covers) and the belt cover (engine housing cover) are designed in such a way that they are located outside the oil chamber, making them very easy to change. Customising parts and Roland Sands design collections Machined and 2-Tone Black for the new R 18. The BMW Motorrad equipment range offers a maximum selection of individualisation options with which to adapt the R 18 to personal taste and preferences. The wide range of different parts available from the programme of Original BMW Motorrad Accessories allows individual customising that significantly alter the character of the R 18. For the market launch of the new R 18, two different design collections of milled aluminium parts are available, created in collaboration with Roland Sands Design: Machined and 2-Tone-Black. Co-branding with famous brands: BMW and Mustang seats as well as BMW and Vance & Hines exhaust systems Made in USA. For the accessories and customising programme of the new R 18, BMW Motorrad is collaborating with Roland Sands Design and several well-known suppliers including US manufacturer Mustang Seat to offer different versions of high-quality hand-made seats. In addition the customising potential for the exhaust systems in cooperation with Vance & Hines is no less creative. The highlights of the new BMW R 18: Iconic style blending modern technology with authentic materials. Biggest ever BMW boxer engine with a capacity of 1 802 cc. Output 67 kW (91 hp) at 4750rpm, maximum torque 158Nm at 3000rpm. More than 150 Nm available at all times from 2 000 to 4 000 rpm. Exposed drive-shaft based on the classic role model.

Fri, 18 Sep 2020 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/bmw-motorrad-presents-the-m-endurance-chain- For more than 90 years, the maintenance-free, environmentally friendly and comfortable shaft drive has been one of BMW Motorrad's immovable technical cornerstones. With the M Endurance chain, BMW Motorrad now offers a maintenance-free chain with comparable characteristics for the first time. Like previous X-ring chains, the M Endurance chain has a resident permanent lubricant filling between the rollers and pins, enclosed by X-rings. What is completely new, however, is that the previously necessary additional lubricant addition for the rollers and thus the familiar "chain lubrication" is no longer necessary, nor is any re-tensioning required from time to time due to the usual wear. This enormous gain in comfort was made possible by using a new coating material for the rollers: tetrahedrally amorphous carbon (ta-C), also known as industrial diamond. This coating is characterized by extreme hardness and resistance and in this respect it is placed between the well-known DLC coating (Diamond Like Carbon) and pure diamond. In contrast to the metal surfaces used so far, the coating with the ta-C industrial diamond does not wear off. At the same time, this type of coating also offers a drastically reduced friction coefficient. Thanks to excellent dry lubrication properties and the elimination of wear, the tetrahedral amorphous carbon coated rollers of the M Endurance chain offer maintenance comfort equivalent to that of a shaft drive motorcycle. This includes all the cleaning work that is unavoidable with a conventional chain due to splashed lubricant. Accordingly, the M Endurance chain also offers maximum environmental friendliness. The M Endurance chain in 525 pitch is now available initially for the two 4-cylinder models BMW S 1000 RR and S 1000 XR. The M Endurance chain is available as accessory or directly from the factory as an option. Further BMW Motorrad models are being prepared for this feature.

Under the changes, drivers whose photocard driving licence or entitlement to drive runs out between 1 February 2020 and 31 December 2020 will have their entitlement automatically extended from the expiry date, for a period of 11 months. Drivers do not need to apply to renew their licence until they receive a reminder before their extension expires. Theinitial extensionexpired at the end of August. This has now been further extended to the end of the year under temporary changes announced by DVLA today (1 September 2020). DVLA Chief Executive Julie Lennard said Being able to drive is a lifeline for millions of people and this further extension will ensure that in these continued uncertain times, drivers dont need to worry about the admin or the associated costs with renewing their licences. The temporary extension is automatic, and drivers do not need to do anything. Drivers who have already applied to renew their photocard driving licence or entitlement to drive can usually carry on driving while we process their application, providing they have not been told by their doctor or optician that they should not drive. Wed, 02 Sep 2020 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/porsche-presents-comprehensively-revamped-panamera The new Porsche Panamera now covers an even wider spectrum. It combines the performance of a sports car with the comfort of an exclusive saloon. With the 463 kW (630 PS; Panamera Turbo S models: Fuel consumption combined 11.1 10.7 l/100 km; CO2emissions combined 253 245 g/km (as of 08/2020)) Panamera Turbo S, the sports car manufacturer successfully supports its claim to best-in-class performance. The new top-of-the-range model betters the performance figures of the previous Panamera Turbo by a wide margin. Porsche also continues to pursue its E-Performance strategy. The Panamera 4S E-Hybrid is a new addition to the range of plug-in hybrids, offering a completely new drive system with 412 kW (560 PS; Panamera 4S E-Hybrid models: Fuel consumption combined 2.3 2.0 l/100 km, Electricity consumption combined 19.5 17.4 kWh/100 km; CO2emissions combined 53 47 g/km (as of 08/2020)) system output. Compared with the previous hybrid models, the all-electric range has been boosted by up to 30 per cent. Comfort and sportiness both benefit from enhanced chassis components and control systems in combination with the new-generation steering control and tyres. With a power output of 463 kW (630 PS; Panamera Turbo S models: Fuel consumption combined 11.1 10.7 l/100 km; CO2emissions combined 253 245 g/km (as of 08/2020)) and a torque of 820 newton metres, the new Panamera Turbo S offers 59 kW (80 PS) more power and 50 Nm more torque than the previous flagship Turbo with combustion engine. This has a very positive effect on driving performance: in Sport Plus mode, the Turbo S model accelerates from 0 100 km/h in just 3.1 seconds. Developed in Weissach and built in Zuffenhausen, the familiar four-litre V8 biturbo engine has been comprehensively overhauled to enable the car to achieve a top speed of 315 km/h (Panamera Turbo S models: Fuel consumption combined 11.1 10.7 l/100 km; CO2emissions combined 253 245 g/km (as of 08/2020)). In order to transfer the enormous power to the road in a controlled manner and maximise cornering performance, the three-chamber air suspension, the Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) and the roll stabilisation system Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control Sport (PDCC Sport) including Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus) have been customised to each specific model and optimised accordingly. The new Panamera Turbo S has already proven its uncompromising performance capability on the legendary Nrburgring Nordschleife: test driver Lars Kern completed the 20.832 kilometre-long lap on the most demanding race track in the world in exactly 7:29.81 minutes the new official record in the executive cars class. Increased sportiness and comfort thanks to optimised chassis systems The V8 biturbo engine in the Panamera GTS was optimised with a specific focus on its power delivery. With 353 kW (480 PS; Panamera GTS models: Fuel consumption combined 11.1 10.7 l/100 km; CO2emissions combined 253 244 g/km (as of 08/2020)) and 620 Nm, the new Panamera GTS delivers 15 kW (20 PS) more power than its predecessor. The power output continuously increases up to close to the engine speed limit. The power delivery is therefore like that of a classic sports car with naturally aspirated engine. The traditional V8 sound characteristics are even more prominent than before thanks to the new standard sports exhaust system featuring asymmetrically positioned rear silencers. The new Panamera and Panamera 4 are now equipped with the familiar 2.9-litre V6 biturbo engine in all markets worldwide. Delivering 243 kW (330 PS; Panamera models: Fuel consumption combined 8.8 8.6 l/100 km; CO2emissions combined 201 197 g/km; Panamera 4 models: Fuel consumption combined 9.0 8.7 l/100 km; CO2emissions combined 205 199 g/km (all as of 08/2020)) and 450 Nm, the performance remains unchanged. The chassis and control systems have been geared towards a sporty and also comfortable character for all new Panamera models. Some systems have even been applied completely from scratch. For example, the revamped Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) system results in a noticeable improvement in damping comfort, while the control of the electric roll stabilisation system Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control Sport (PDCC Sport) ensures improved body stability. There is also a new equipment generation for the steering control and tyres. 4S E-Hybrid with 17.9 kWh battery and an electric range of up to 54 km Porsche is presenting a further performance-oriented plug-in hybrid model with the new Panamera 4S E-Hybrid. The intelligent combination of the 100 kW (136 PS) electric motor integrated into the eight-speed dual-clutch PDK transmission and the 2.9-litre V6 biturbo engine with 324 kW (440 PS) generates a system output of 412 kW (560 PS; Panamera 4S E-Hybrid models: Fuel consumption combined 2.3 2.0 l/100 km, Electricity consumption combined 19.5 17.4 kWh/100 km; CO2emissions combined 53 47 g/km (as of 08/2020)) and a maximum system torque of 750 Nm.

"Its going to be very competitively priced but were sticking with Triumphs roots to maintain a premium presence in that market." A key part of the success Triumph are hoping for lies in the engine which, as a mid-capacity triple, will make it the stand-out bike in a sector full of parallel twins. Although its based on existing architecture, Triumph say its an all-new unit both inside and out, sharing just a few common parts. For now Triumph arent releasing any figures about the new powerplant, other than to say it will beA2 compliant. Starting from scratch The frame is new, designed just for this bike to deliver the sort of roadster handling Triumph have become famous for. The styling is fresh too, taking a retro meets-modern approach where classic Triumph design cues, such as the cut-outs in the tank, work alongside the modern shapes of the subframe. Theres even a dash of Italian flair with the work of Rodolfo Frascoli, whose previous penmanship has brought us the fantasticTiger 900. 2021 Triumph Trident: Bang up to date The new bike should be right up there technology-wise, with all new switchgear clearly visible, alongside a brand new dash and funky LED lights. Theres no indication what tech to expect, but based on the Hinckley operations current models, that switchgear and a desire to outdo the competition, dont be surprised to see riding modes, cornering ABS and lean-sensitive traction control. Triumph plan to reveal the full machine, along with all the specs and price in just a few weeks, ahead of its arrival in dealers early next year. Wed, 26 Aug 2020 00:00:00 BST https://www.lind.co.uk/news/netflixs-david-birtwistle-joins-team-lind On Sunday the 27th of September, we are teaming up to ride solo in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride with fellow men and women across the globe to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer and men's mental health on behalf of Movember. David Birtwistle of Netflix's 'Too Hot To Handle', who has become a good friend of LIND, heard about the initiative and is excited to announce that he will be joiningTeam LINDfor this years charity ride! Men die on average 6 years earlier than women and for largely preventable reasons. The number of men that are suffering is growing, and we need to do something about that. So, before we press our tweed and polish our boots, we are asking you to join us in raising funds and awareness for these causes by donating what you can for this meaningful cause and to help the men we love, live happier and healthier lives. The Distinguished Gentlemans Ride unites classic and vintage style motorcycle riders all over the world to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer research and mens mental health. The Distinguished Gentlemans Ride was founded in Sydney, Australia, by Mark Hawwa. It was inspired by a photo of TV Show Mad Mens Don Draper astride a classic bike and wearing his finest suit. Mark decided a themed ride would be a great way of connecting niche motorcycle enthusiasts and communities while raising funds to support the men in our lives. The 2020 ride will be a solo event to comply with all local social distancing restrictions. There will be no mass-participation event - but just because we're not riding in groups doesn't mean we're not riding!2020 is our year to prove how connected and caring we are.This is our year to Ride Solo, Together.

We are very proud of the fact that all funds received are donated to the charity and the BarbersRide team give all their time willingly and completely free of charge. 2020 is geared up to be the biggest year yet, with 20+ riders aiming to participate and six of the best barbershops across the country hosting fundraising events each night.
