Ducati's Premier Financing Program

Published in: Newsducati-premier-financing

It’s true. For the cost of a good cup of coffee per day, motorcycle enthusiasts across the U.S. can afford the Ducati of their dreams. Because today, Italian motorcycle manufacturer Ducati announced the launch of its new flexible financing program, Ducati Premier Financing. This Program is a major step forward in Ducati’s new brand-expansion strategy, and one that allows far more riders to access a premium product many have felt to be out of reach... until now.

The Program’s flexibility means that riders can enjoy affordable and far lower monthly payments compared to traditional financing, even with a low down payment. There are no wear-and-tear or mileage restrictions, owners can opt for a shorter trading cycle if they want to trade in for the latest model, and they can add accessories as they choose; unlike a traditional lease. At the end of term owners can trade for the newest Ducati model, sell it privately, or pay it off. The result is a monthly rate that would be less than the cost of renting a comparable motorcycle for just a single day.

Ducati Premier Financing applies to all 2017 Ducati models, including the recently released Multistrada 950 ($169/month, click here to read our review) and even the new Monster 1200 S ($199/month.) Other highly anticipated releases to come – Desert Sled, SuperSport, Café Racer and Monster 797 – are also covered by the program.

Ducati Scrambler

“This is just one more tool Ducati is using to position our motorcycles more accessible to a broader array of riders,” says Jason Chinnock, CEO of Ducati North America. “With an expanded lineup and our new financing flexibility, all sorts of riders – beginners and veterans alike – can now make Ducati ownership a reality, especially if they’re willing to cut back a bit on their caffeine intake!”

Premier Financing is sure to be especially popular for the sub-$10,000 Scramblers, including the Sixty2 ($89.00/month) or the Icon ($99.00/month). New entrants to motorcycling will appreciate the Monster 821’s $139.00 per month pricing, but even hardcore enthusiasts can ride out for less than two cups of coffee a day, with the Monster 1200’s $176 per month price tag or Panigale 959’s $185 per month.

2017 has seen an introduction of new mid-range and entry priced Ducati models coupled with the financing flexibility offered by the Ducati Premier Financing program as part of a long-term approach to broaden the brand’s reach. In recent years Ducati has also tackled the previous cost of ownership barrier by extending the service intervals and becoming an industry leader in low maintenance costs. These initiatives along with the best product offering and a strongest dealer network in Ducati’s history provide easier accessibility to the Ducati brand for all motorcyclists. Ducati.com

About Ducati Premier Financing:

* U.S. News & World Reports (9/29/2015) reports that the average cost of a cappuccino in the U.S. is $3.51. At a 30-day month at $99/mo., the daily cost of a Scrambler Icon is $3.30. At $89/mo. the daily cost for a 2017 Scrambler Sixty2 is $2.97 – less than a single cup of regular coffee. The new Multistrada 950 at $169/mo. is $5.63 a day – less than two coffees of daily intake.

Published in: Newsrevit-sand-urban-jacket

For the Spring/Summer 2017 collection, REV’IT! designers took the popular Sand® jacket design and gave it a fashion makeover. The result? An industry first that blends the lines between city streets and rugged adventure terrain: The Sand® Urban. This crossover piece combines all the functionality of its adventure namesake with the polish of the REV’IT! Tailored Technology collection, for an entirely new segment of riding gear.


A DIFFERENT TYPE OF CAMOFLAUGE

The materials on the Sand® Urban deliver the right amount of abrasion resistance, at the right level of style. A polycotton outer shell is reinforced with heavy-duty polyester oxford material at the impact zones, for a look that harkens back to the early days of motorcycling, but offers modern-day protection. Tone-on-tone coloring provides an air of army-like utility, for a total package that’s just at home in the city as it is in the dirt.

REV'IT! Sand Urban Jacket

UTILITY & CLIMATE CONTROL

With the Sand® Urban, fashion doesn’t exclude function: Integrated SEESMART™ protectors at the shoulders and elbows give riders sturdy CE-rated armor with a flexible and open structure that offers comfort and ventilation. For maximum protection, the jacket is fitted with a pocket for the CE-level 2 SEESOFT™ back protector, and can be upgraded with the REV’IT! HV Connector Vest for extra visibility on the road. A double short connection zipper allows for a connection to any REV'IT! pant, or to REV’IT! jeans using the Safeway Belt.

When it comes to weather readiness, the Sand® Urban mimics all the functionality of its adventure sibling: A thermal liner and waterproof Hydratex® 3L membrane are included for cold, wet days, but in warmer weather these layers can be removed completely, and ample outer-shell vents can be opened for generous airflow. For even better heat management, the jacket is prepared for the REV’IT! Challenger cooling vest. MSRP: $599 REVITSport.com

Touratech RallyeForm Skid Plate

Published in: Newstouratech-rallyeform-skid-plate

Touratech has a long history of testing new products in rallye and racing environments. The company uses the rigors of the racecourse to get feedback on designs and to test new products in the harshest conditions. Last year, the company entered a Honda CRF 1000L Africa Twin in the Hellas Rallye and its engineers set out to create protection items that would keep the bike alive as it battled a field of bikes half its weight across the rugged Greek countryside.

Using a new deep-draw manufacturing process, Touratech was able to create a skid plate that wraps around the engine featuring a 3-D shape that is pressed from a single sheet of 4mm aluminum. This process strain-hardens the material for increased toughness and the large-radius bends add structural integrity. With no sharp-corners to snag or get hung up on obstacles, the RallyeForm skid plate will glide over rough terrain making a smooth experience for both bike and rider. This design also eliminates the need for welds, a common area where cracks can appear.

touratech rallyeform 3

The RallyeForm skid plate is available in anodized black and bare aluminum finishes. For the Africa Twin the company has two sizes; the Standard size works with DCT or standard bikes with crash bars installed while the larger Extreme version for manual transmission bikes has increased coverage area eliminating the need for lower crash bars.

"We use a force of 500,000 lbs to press a 4mm sheet of aluminum into the perfect shape to protect the engine. The result is a product so good that it helped us reach the podium with a 1000cc bike in a field of 450cc dirt bikes." – Paul Guillien, CEO, Touratech-USA

The RallyeForm Skid Plate is available for the Honda Africa Twin with versions for the BMW R1200GS and the KTM 1090 and 1190 coming later in 2017. MSRP: $379 - $419 Touratech-USA.com

Published in: Newshonda-africa-twin-rally

European publication www.moto.it reports Honda has revealed specifications and pricing for a new version of the CRF1000 - the Africa Twin Rally. The bike receives a host of upgrades that shave about 15.4 lbs, and boosts power output to 98hp.

The model is a joint development project with RedMoto and not likely to see North American shores. Revised bodywork includes a high front fender, rally tower and windscreen, skid plate, tail tidy, and carbon fiber accents. The images provided by www.moto.it shows anodized triple trees, upgraded wheels with aggressive tires, and what appears to be a factory dress-up kit for the engine. A full Termignoni exhaust system is also displayed in the photos. Of course, these may all be factory options to dress up the Africa Twin Rally for display purposes, as it was showcased at 2017 Roman Motodays.

Honda AfricaTwin Rally5

Pricing has also been announced and fortunately, Honda will offer both the standard (21,490 Euro) and DCT (22,640 Euro) versions of this bike. There has been no announcement for USA distribution, so we’ll have to sit back, cross our fingers, and wait for the press release from Honda. In the meantime, what are your thoughts on this radical rally bike?

Published in: Newsktm-2stroke-fuel-injection

The Austrian manufacturer is well-known for its revolutionary advancements in technology and now the game-changer is finally here with 2-stroke fuel injection Enduro models being launched as part of the 2018 EXC range. With KTM’s unwavering commitment to being at the very forefront of offroad motorcycle sport, in which the orange brand has achieved many championship wins over the years, the latest, exciting development in technology has come to fruition.

It has been no secret that KTM’s Research and Development department in Mattighofen, Austria has been developing this technology, which offers considerable benefits over carbureted models including drastically reduced fuel consumption while also no-longer having the need to pre-mix fuel or alter the machines’ jetting. Not only that, the new 2-stroke TPI models offer a completely new experience in terms of power delivery and rideability, which once again demonstrates KTM’s commitment to its offroad roots, continuing on from the all-new generation of Enduro machines released last year. As market leaders in this segment, KTM believes the new 2-stroke fuel injection technology, known as TPI (Transfer Port Injection), is revolutionary. More information will be available during the international media launch, which begins on May 15, 2017.

Schematic of KTM's Fuel Injected 2-Stroke Engine
Joachim Sauer, KTM Product Marketing Manager: "This is an incredibly exciting development for KTM. We have been developing 2-stroke fuel injection for some time and our goal was to create competitive motorcycles with all the benefits of fuel injection, while fitting into our READY TO RACE mantra. There has been extensive testing and considerations for our Research and Development team to take into account during this process, so we are very motivated by this next step and world-first in technology, as we take a major step forward in this segment. We are certainly looking forward to unveiling the new 2018 KTM 250 EXC TPI and KTM 300 EXC TPI machines in May. In Europe the bikes will arrive at the dealer floors in early summer, and in the U.S. and Canada, the new 2018 250 XC-W TPI will be available in very limited quantities in late fall.” KTMUSA.com

Monster Energy Honda Team Back in Action

Published in: Newsmonster-energy-honda-2017

Ten weeks after the Dakar Rally, Monster Energy Honda Team returns to face the 2017 season due to culminate with the Dakar 2018.

The Monster Energy Honda Team, almost in its entirety, will kick off the 2017 campaign next week with the same strategy used last season: while one part of the team is in action in Mexico, the other riders will be simultaneously competing in the World Championship in the Middle East.

Monster Energy Honda Team’s American rider Ricky Brabec is poised to participate in the Sonora Rally in México, a four-day event where riders will have to tackle nearly 1000 kilometres of racing. The Californian currently leads the American Hare & Hound competition after having completed the event’s first two rounds. Brabec, the current champion, will face the Sonora well-armed with the Honda CRF450 RALLY and accompanying roadbook. The race gets underway from Puerto Peñasco on Tuesday 21st March.

Team-mate Joan Barreda was also scheduled to line up for the event, but the Spaniard was injured while training before the race, requiring surgery to his right collarbone and will now miss the action. Barreda should be back in competition in less than a month.

Benavides and Gonçalves in Abu Dhabi

Argentine Kevin Benavides is all set to start the season. The rider from Salta had an accident in Chile a fortnight before the 2017 Dakar Rally and missed the event. The promising rider underwent an operation involving the internal fixation of various right-hand fractures (osteosynthesis) and Kirchner wires. After two months recovering in a cast, Kevin began rehabilitation and physiotherapy in an attempt to regain full movement of the joints. Early in March, Benavides was back in the saddle of the Honda CRF450 RALLY and back in training for what will be his first shot at the Abu Dhabi Desert Challenge, which takes place from 1st to 7th of April.

Alongside Kevin Benavides in the Abu Dhabi Desert Challenge will be Portuguese rider Paulo Gonçalves – sixth place overall finisher in the Dakar 2017 – who will also participate in each round of the FIM Cross-Country Rallies World Championship. The Portuguese rider claimed the title of the 2013 edition of the World Championship, finished runner-up in 2014 and took the bronze medal in 2015.

Martino Bianchi:

It is time for the Monster Energy Honda team to get back into racing after the Dakar 2017. We are very sorry about Joan Barreda’s injury and we all wish him a quick and easy recovery in order to be back on the bike soon.

The Sonora Rally in Mexico will be quite important to continue our program of testing and the heavy sand and dunes of the course will be quite demanding and interesting for all participants. I would like to thank Johnny Campbell,JCR Racing and American Honda for their logistic support during the Sonora Rally and also over the forthcoming testing program that we will be following in the US.

In a couple of week’s time we will also start the first race of the FIM World Championship Cross Country Rally, where we can see Kevin Benavides and Paulo Gonçalves in action. For Kevin this will be the first race back after the injury, an important test to check the state of his hand. For Paulo, the Cross Country Rally races are always interesting and it’s useful too in order to maintain the level of fitness of the competitors.

I would like to wish the whole team, the riders and all the Monster Energy Honda Team fans and supporters all over the world a great 2017 rally season! Please follow us!

MOESOF Endurance Seats

Published in: Newsmoesof-endurance-seat

MOESOF LLC has created a new product for the world of off road motorcycling and adventure touring. The MOESOF Endurance Seat is designed to eliminate the discomfort many riders experience after long days on the narrow seats of their otherwise favorite bikes. By transforming the uncomfortably narrow seat of the modern off road motorcycle, into a seat with actual long distance comfort, MOESOF LLC has created a new product and a new market, the Endurance Seat market.

New or returning riders will look again at off road motorcycles when the bike’s comfort improves. Larger riders can now ride narrow high performance bikes, bikes they may have found too uncomfortable before. Current off road riders can now ride longer on the bikes they already have, longer than they ever could before. Adventure tourers and Backcountry Discovery Route riders now have the option of lighter bikes with more off road capability for more challenging routes, for more adventure and more discovery than ever before. And parents can now ride off road motorcycles comfortably all day with their kids, possibly the most adventure and discovery of them all.

MOESOF 1

In round numbers, over of 26 feet of medium weight polyester strap make up a typical MOESOF Endurance Seat. Built to conform to the shape of their EPP foam cylinders and the seat of a specific model of bike, a MOESOF Endurance Seats forms a supported surface 11” long by 12” wide. That much strap stitched into that compact an assembly creates a structure with “memory”. For example, a standing rider will deflect a MOESOF Endurance Seat out of the way, but the seat will return to its original shape and position under the rider as they return to a sitting position.

By harnessing the counteracting forces of tension and compression, MOESOF’s exclusive Dual Loop Strap construction engages both the top and the sides of an off-road bike’s existing factory seat. This creates a wide and structurally supported surface, delivering all day comfort to a seated rider. Large heavy adventure bikes will always be more comfortable on road. But the MOESOF Endurance Seat brings lightweight purpose built off road motorcycles, closer to the comfort levels of larger heavier bikes.

MOESOF 4

MOESOF Endurance Seats are installed over the top of an existing factory seat and are held I place by Velcro ® patches at the ends of anchor straps on either side of the motorcycle. It can be installed or removed in seconds, rolled up, and stored in a pack for times when it will not be needed.

In use, the MOESOF Endurance Seat allows a rider in motion to sit and relax comfortably on a wide supportive seat, when the terrain permits. When the challenges of the day’s ride are encountered, even if that challenge is the miles of the ride itself, the MOESOF Endurance Seat rider will arrive more rested with less fatigue. That is the definition of the market for the MOESOF Endurance Seat, riding further, with less fatigue, on light weight, high performance, off road motorcycles.

MOESOF Endurance Seats – Redefining off road motorcycling. Redefining rider comfort. Redefining how long a rider can ride. Redefining how far a bike can be ridden. Redefining Endurance. MSRP: $99.95 - $129.95 MOESOF.com

Published in: Newsadvmoto-events-announcement

Efforts to support the entire community of events will become a priority for ADVMoto in 2017 and moving forward. Over the past four years, the number of adventure dual-sport bike rallies has dramatically increased. We understand how important these events are as a sign of industry growth, and it’s our desire to support the community wherever possible. In order to accomplish this, some changes need to be made.

ADVMotoEvents.com was recently released and allows users to find dual sport and adventure bike related events all over the world. Events are free to submit and users can stay up to date on announcements and promotions through the ADVMotoEvents Facebook page. 

Additionally, all event reports will be posted on ADVMotoEvents, and are also free to submit. Utlimately, there is no better place to announce and publish information on your event anywhere in the industry...and entirely for free! The website even features a Touring/Training/Rental company directory to make planning your next vacation or getting training as easy as clicking a button.

ADVMoto Rally will be put on hold. The ADVMoto Rally is extremely special to us and a time where 100% of our effort was spent making sure our awesome readers had a fun, safe and memorable experience. What we put in, we got back ten-fold through the pleasure of hanging out with riders, sharing memories with supporters and many making many new friends along the way.  Much thanks goes out to Wapocoma Campground, the volunteers and die hard ADVMoto lovers who came to every event.

"The decision to put the annual ADVMoto Rally on hold was not easy, but it’s time to shift our focus to efforts that will have a wider impact on the community." says Carl Parker, ADVMoto Publisher. "I like seeing happy people. Those who came to the ADVMoto Rallies know what a special time it was and hope you carry that spirit with you every day. We challenged ourselves, learned new skills and made new stories with new friends. You couldn't ask for anything more." 

ADVMoto Rally 13

ADVMoto has new events in store! We're currently developing a unique program which reflects who we are as a company and doesn't directly compete with our partners and clubs in the community. More details will be announced soon.

We know some of you attended the ADVMoto Rally year after year, solely to see our gleaming faces and soak in our moto obsessed ambiance. No worries, we’re still down to ride! In fact, we invite you to join us May 5 th – May 7th at Boyer Farm for the ADVMoto Dust-Off Rally ride. This isn’t a full blown rally and much more minimalist. We’ve reserved the farm just for us to have fun on. With 400 acres of beatuiful West Virginia trails, it's a great place to get your bike dirty after a winter break. It’ll be family friendly, so bring the kids! The entry fee is a cash donation which goes directly to support Boyer Farm and Lost for a Reason. More details on the ADVMoto Dust-Off Rally will be announced soon and registration will also be open on ADVMotoEvents.com.

Last, but not least, ADVMoto will be attending more events and offering more sponsorship options to event holders, so expect to see ADVMoto hanging out, vendoring or supporting an event near you!

Royal Enfield Himalayan gets FI for India

Published in: NewsRoyal Enfield Himalayan

Royal Enfield has recently announced an update to the eagerly anticipated Himalayan model in India. As of April 1, 2017 India will require new emission standard on all motorcycles larger than 125cc. This new regulation forced Royal Enfield to equip it's hot new adventure bike with EFI and, most likely like it's UK released counterpart, ABS as well.

RoyalEnfield Himalayan EFI ABS 2

Although this will certainly drive prices up against stiff domestic compeition from the Bajaj Dominar 400, it will likely be a smart move globally. One can only hope or assume when we see the Himalayan in North America, it will likely be fitted with EFI and ABS as well. Some reports are already claiming the Himalayan is destined for America. Two carburated units have been posted on the Royal Enflied North America's Instagram account, but there hasn't been an official announcement yet.

RoyalEnfield Himalayan EFI ABS 1

As a comfortable 410cc adventure tourer, with retro styling and largely exposed frame, we expect there's plenty of canvas for cut and weld designers to play with. The Royal Enfield Himalayan should do well on American shores as long as introductory prices are competitive and quality or reliability issues are kept to a minimum.  

Lots of questions still remain. What would you pay to be an early Himalayan adopter?  Would it compete with Ural, who has seen a steady growth in popularity and sales over the past several years? Let us know below!

Published in: Newshonda-nvbdr

Since 2010, the adventure motorcycling non-profit Backcountry Discovery Routes (BDR) has created six trans-state routes for dual-sport and adventure motorcycle travel. Now, BDR announces its seventh route, the Nevada Backcountry Discovery Route (NVBDR), produced in partnership with the American Honda Motor Co., Inc. and TravelNevada, Nevada Division of Tourism. The NVBDR release includes free GPS tracks and route travel information on the BDR website, a waterproof map from Butler Motorcycle Maps, and expedition documentary DVD produced by ColorBlind, and BDR Documentary Films. The project will be unveiled at the NVBDR World Premiere & ADV Expo in Las Vegas on Thursday, February 16, 2017. The NVBDR movie tour presented by Cyclops Adventure Sports, begins February in theaters and dealerships across the country.

The NVBDR Route Documentary & Map
The NVBDR is a 900-mile route that starts in Oatman, AZ, and ends in Jarbidge, NV. The documentary captures the raw experience of the group of riders as they make the first expedition of this remote and rugged route. Viewers will get a glimpse of the history and wildlands that are just beyond the Vegas Strip. High-definition aerial footage will captivate the audience as they get a birds eye view of wildlands and majestic places most people never see, as the team explores Nevada’s remote desert landscapes, alpine vistas, and open sagebrush valleys. Discovering the state’s maverick spirit, the team encounters ghost towns, historic wild-west saloons, relics from Nevada's rich mining history, desert sculptures, murals, and the world’s largest car forest. Most importantly, the film reveals miles of meandering two-track roads that are just perfect for spending time on an adventure motorcycle.

The waterproof and tear-resistant map from Butler Motorcycle Maps contains the main route, detailed sections on the back, information on points of interest, gas stops, camping, elevation profiles, climate guide, and much more.

The NVBDR Map and DVD are available through Touratech-USA and Butler Motorcycle Maps beginning March 1, 2017.

NVBDR Partnerships
The BDR organization is proud to announce support from new partners this year. American Honda Motor Co. Inc. has committed to help the BDR create and preserve riding opportunities through 2018. The collaboration allows the BDR to test and showcase the off-road capabilities of the new CRF1000L Africa Twin in a BDR environment. Through this partnership, the BDR also gains the knowledge and experience of JCR Honda’s own, 11-Time Baja 1000 Champion, Johnny Campbell, who joined the NVBDR expedition team, and appears in the documentary.

”The NVBDR is going to knock your boots right off the pegs! Once you have watched this inspirational film on our Nevada expedition, prepare yourself and equipment properly, and go explore a ‘True Adventure’ through the road-less-traveled and experience the REAL Wild West.”

- Johnny Campbell, 11-Time Baja 1000 Champion
The BDR organization also received support from the Nevada Division of Tourism in the form of a grant, to help create the Nevada BDR and promote adventure motorcycle tourism in the state of Nevada. The BDR team estimates that in its first year, the NVBDR project will bring over $1million in revenue to rural Nevada communities including Primm, Pahrump, Beatty, Tonopah, Austin, Elko, and others along the route.

“Some of the most thrilling, inspiring landscapes in Nevada are best seen from a backcountry trail or rugged mountain road, and the NVBDR celebrates the beauty of Nevada in a visually compelling format. This is exactly what our grant program was designed to support: projects and organizations that can take the raw material Nevada has to offer and present it to potential travelers to generate revenue for every corner of our state. We are proud to have been a part of this project.”

Pirelli SCORPION RALLY STR Tires

Published in: Newspirelli-scorpion-rally-str-tires

Pirelli is pleased to present SCORPION™ RALLY STR, the new on/off enduro tyre designed specifically for the latest generation of adventure, dual purpose and enduro street bikes. SCORPION™ RALLY STR is a revolution in the tyre segment because it manages to combine the best performance of a rally competition tyre with that of an enduro street tyre. These tires are the new enduro on/off segment designed specifically to meet the most demanding needs on the market with an aggressive tread and important technological innovations that provide traction on dirt roads, stability even at high speeds, handling and agility on the road, in addition to comfort and grip in all riding conditions.

Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR 8

Conceived for the latest generation of adventure, dual purpose and street enduro bikes, the SCORPION RALLY STR is also capable of handling long trips and excursions, including off road sections. These tires provide off road performance combined with excellent handling, grip and stability on the road. The new SCORPION™ RALLY STR is aimed at are those seeking versatility, balanced on and off road performance and a knobbly tyre with an aggressive look that does not sacrifice grip, safety on wet roads, mileage, stability and comfort.

Tread pattern

The SCORPION™ RALLY STR tread pattern is that of a true knobby, optimised for use on the road thanks to the increased rubber surface area in contact with the ground in the tread contact area.

The tread of the SCORPION™ RALLY STR has a completely new geometry and knob height-width ratio that is brand new to the market. Thanks to this feature, Pirelli has succeeded in achieving increased stability on the road without compromising traction off road.

In fact, the large central knobs ensure a wider tread contact area, thereby increasing stability for use on the road even at high speeds and at the same time reducing wear. The ample central indentations allow the knobs to penetrate the terrain, providing top of the line off road traction.

Gallery3

Compound

The SCORPION™ RALLY STR tread has a single layer with high silica content, both on the front and the rear, for the purpose of achieving high tear resistance, stability, superior abrasion resistance and a high level of grip in both dry and wet conditions. The silica content is greater than 55%, with a balanced percentage of carbon black and resin.

Particular attention was paid to selecting the polymers and fillers to harmonise their combination in the best possible way. Thanks in part to Pirelli's exclusive and patented blending process, the silica and carbon black were combined with new types of resins, oils and polymers, improving cohesion and reaching an extremely high level of uniformity. This was the key to maximising the potential of the components and improving their characteristics, allowing them all to take maximum advantage of their own chemical and mechanical properties to guarantee stable and long-lasting performance.

Profiles

The SCORPION™ RALLY STR profiles stem directly from the ones used on the SCORPION™ Trail II, with the specific purpose of improving performance on the road.

Maintaining the Pirelli variable rounding philosophy, in the case of the SCORPION™ RALLY STR, the size of the cord and the overall length of the profile's development were increased in order to increase the tread contact surface and therefore grip and stability, even when cornering. The height of the “cap” was increased significantly in order to improve shock absorption, comfort and stability. The profiles of the front and rear tyre have a similar pattern and geometry in order to ensure matched performance of the set.

Gallery4

Structure

The structure adopted on the SCORPION™ RALLY STR takes its inspiration from the structure developed for the SCORPION™ Trail II, but it has a few important modifications: the steel belt at 0 degrees of the radial sizes has a differentiated density throughout the profile. This allows the structural stiffness to be increased in the grooves between the central and lateral knobs, increasing the overall resistance of the tread contact surface to deformation, with a great advantage to stability, even with a full load and on heavy bikes.

Even the structure of the criss-cross angle of the plies was modified to increase the resistance of the casing to lateral and longitudinal stress and to support the tread pattern at variable lean angles.

The rayon cords that make up the radial casing are characterised by a superior linear density and rigidity, in order to optimise the shock absorption effect of the entire structure.

Sizes

SCORPION™ RALLY STR will initially be available from January 2017 in the sizes that come on the new Ducati Scrambler, but during the course of the year, the range will be expanded to include more sizes. The complete range of sizes is below. For more information, visit Pirelli.com

New KLIM 626 Series Gear Collection

Published in: Newsklim-626-series-gear

KLIM is a company based on building products for specific purposes and, frankly, building it better than anyone else. So, when the Idaho locals got together over a two-day, self-created motorcycle challenge, they didn’t know they had started a full-on development project for a new generation of motorcycle riding gear. But that’s just what happened.

KLIM’s 626 Series was a race before it was an apparel collection. Take $600 and buy/build a motorcycle. Take 2 days. Race your buddies over 600 miles. That’s how 626 was born. And it showed KLIM’s team the importance of adaptability, improvisation and, most of all, how to take in the experience of motorcycling.

Z Klim 626 1

626 isn’t about style or fashion, 626 is riding without limitations or restrictions held to motorcycling’s categories. As such it is inherently multi-sport. It is at home on any ride over any terrain. It is motorcycle gear that is anti-niche and anti-urban. We’re talking rat bikes that will break down and riding buddies who help you fix them. It’s less about what you’re on, and more about what you’re doing. 626 is about riding. And riding gear that can do anything. It’s time to play outside.

The KLIM 626 Series consists of two jackets, a pair of pants and a pair of gloves. All represent the ethos of what riding simplicity is meant to be—timeless style, subdue branding, understated technology, versatility and real value. This is riding gear you can count on—the multi-tool of apparel ready for work and play.

626 Drifter Jacket

The Drifter Jacket takes the heritage of waxed cotton canvas material to the KLIM level with a high-end waxed Cordura® canvas body, providing ultimate comfort and simple style. The Drifter is perfect for quick rides and long weekend explorations. Incorporating a timeless work wear style, the Drifter brings credibility to any environment. You likely won’t wear it in a crowd, but if you did, you’d be blending in superbly with its classic button-faced magnetic closures, exposed zippers, plaid print lining and subtle branding. Tech is under the radar but real—ventilation ports under the arms, D3O armor systems, magnetic closures, action back construction for a full-range of motion and more. Available in Green, Black and Blue in Small to 3X sizes from $299.99.
