Emily from D2 Racing Sport, Taiwan has contacted me to tell about their lines of racing suspension for use to motorcycle few days ago. I asked for permission to use these images on my blog since the suspension offered by D2 Racing Sport is very different than what we see normally. Usually, we just see one nitrogen canister at the suspension, but D2 has create 2 nitrogen canister for their suspension to provide better setting and wide tuning ability for the suspension dampening from softest to hardest. It is able to be adjusted up to 36 different hardness(softness?) dampening level. It features the ‘Golden Included Angle‘  which lead to better critical point for the suspension design. I have emailed Emily and asked whether this suspension is available for Yamaha Lagenda 115ZR, and now I’m waiting for her reply. The technical features and specification are here: (more…)

Honda has been the first manufacturer that build the FI small bike by the introduction of Honda Wave 110i 125i with PGM-FI.

Waiting for ‘Dunia Moped’ 2010 brochure from Yamaha Malaysia. Two more pictures after the jump. (more…)

While browsing to look at 2010 Yamaha Malaysia bikes line-up, I stumble upon this two familiar bikes that is Yamaha SRX and Yamaha SRV which already exists on the market for long time ago (in year 2003, I guess).
