KTM, Brabus team up to develop the 1300 R German performance tuning company Brabus has teamed up with KTM to develop a unique offering –the Brabus 1300 R. The Brabus 1300 R is limited to only 154 units globally, divided equally for the two colours on offer – Signature Black and Magma Red. This means there are 77 units per colour and that number signifies the year 1977, which is when Brabus was established. To add to the feeling of exclusivity, its collection of bespoke, handmade details including a Limited Edition plate with each unit number. Coming to the bits under the unique Brabus bodywork, the 1300 R shares the same engine as seen in the KTM 1290 Super Duke R. The 1,301cc, V-twin makes 180hp and 140Nm, and is mated to a 6-speed transmission that’s equipped with a slipper clutch. The frame is also the same as seen on the KTM and is suspended by WP Apex semi-active USD fork and monoshock. Braking duties are handled by 320mm discs at the front, with radially mounted Brembo Stylema Monobloc four-piston callipers, and a 240mm disc at the back, with Brembo twin-piston fixed callipers. It comes equipped with cornering as well as Supermoto ABS. Speaking of electronics, the bike gets similar ride modes as the Duke, as well as the same instrument cluster, albeit with a start-up graphic unique to the Brabus. Pre-orders for the Brabus 1300 R will start on February 14 on KTM’s website. #ktM #ktmbikes #ktmsuperduke1290r #ktmsuperduke #ktmbrabus1300r #ktmbrabus #brabus #brabus1300r #brabus1300 #brabus1300rr #ktm1290 #ktm1290superadventure #ktm1290superduker #ktm1290r (at Secunderabad) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ56XempLaO/?utm_medium=tumblr

Honda CBR150R Patent Filed In India – Yamaha R15 V4 Rival CBR150R is a true race machine with a sharp nose and aerodynamic body panels. It derives design inspiration from its larger siblings, CBR500R and CBR650R. At the front, the bike gets dual LED headlamps and LED DRLs. Other key features include a compact windscreen, sporty rear-view mirrors, low-set wide handlebar, fully digital instrument console, sculpted fuel tank, upswept exhaust and step-up seats Mix of contrasting shades and eye-catchy graphics further enhance the bike’s sporty profile. USD forks in golden colour is another key highlight. Colour options for Honda CBR150R vary based on the market. In international markets, Honda CBR150R is powered by a 149.2cc, liquid cooled DOHC motor. It generates 17.1 ps of max power at 9,000 rpm and 14.4 Nm of peak torque at 7,000 rpm. It is mated to a 6-speed gearbox. In comparison, primary rival Yamaha R15 V4 utilizes a 155cc motor that makes 18.4 ps and 14.2 Nm. So, while CBR150R is slightly low on power, relatively, it has a bit more torque to offer. Honda CBR150R utilizes a diamond frame with inverted telescopic front suspension and swingarm with monoshock at rear. The bike has 17-inch wheels at both ends, shod with 100/80 front and 130/70 rear tyres. It has disc brakes at both ends with dual-channel ABS. It is possible that Honda could introduce Bluetooth-based connectivity features for CBR150R in India. Rival R15 already offers a range of connectivity features, which can be accessed via Y-Connect app. Pricing also needs to be competitive for CBR150R to generate desired sales volumes. #hondacbr250rr #hondacbr150 #hondacbr150r #hondacbr150rr #hondacbr1502022 (at Secunderabad) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ3cF8ApOM_/?utm_medium=tumblr

Triumph's Electric Street Triple Is Almost A Reality Triumph motorcycles has revealed its electric bike prototype, the Project TE-1 and has disclosed that the phase 3 of the project is complete. The TE-1 prototype is built in collaboration with Williams Advanced Engineering (WAE), who is responsible for the battery pack on the motorcycle. The completion of phase 3 signals the finalisation of the chassis, frame and body of the bike, which takes heavy inspiration from the Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS in terms of styling and overall design. With more muscular and bolder styling, the TE-1 borrows the headlight and taillight set up from its ICE counterpart, the Speed Triple. The TE-1 is powered by WAE’s 15kWh battery pack paired to a powertrain with scalable integrated inverter and combined motor with silicon carbide switching technology and integrated cooling. The electric bike produces around 180PS whereas the TE-1’s electric unit is capable of more than 500kW, the equivalent of around 680PS as per Integral’s CTO Andrew Cross. Keep in mind that even though the motor is reportedly capable of 680PS, expecting that much power on a motorcycle is surely a recipe for disaster. ICE nakeds like the Ducati Streetfighter V4 are already plenty fast and scary and they are just putting out 200PS. The EV is expected to have a range of around 193km, however, all the performance stats will be tested only in phase 4. The electric bike’s prototype is to undergo phase 4 testing, will entail complete road and track live testing of the bike for performance, core and dynamic rider assessments, in the next six months. The collaboration stage of the TE-1 has ended, and after phase 4 ends, we can expect to see this electric beast on sale alongside the ICE offerings by Triumph Motorcycles soon enough. Other than the British manufacturer, only Kawasaki has showcased a prototype of its under-the-works hybrid motorcycle and announced that it’s working on electric performance bikes. #triumph #triumphmotorcycles #triumphindia #triumphbajajtieup #triumphelectric #triumphev #triumphte1 #te1 #triumphspeedtriple #triumphspeedtriple1200rs #ducatistreetfighterv4 (at Secunderabad) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ3R0DWpj99/?utm_medium=tumblr
