Honda CB 450 Cafe Racer Motorcycle

The overall sporty look is completed by the bikini fairing and vented mudguard, but if we take a better look at the back, the underseat exhaust tends to turn it into a veritable racing motorcycle, which is what café racers were originally supposed to be. Also, the red/white color scheme was the adequate choice in our opinion.
FMF Racing Apex Exhaust on Kawasaki ZX-10R - Tested

Ask first ten riders aftermarket purchases they made for their motorcycles and the possibility of nine of them will give the same answer: a drainage system. It's hard to resist whining howl of the engine full song, and let the engine breath easier not only release more than a beautiful exhaust note, but it also can liberate a certain power in the process. The problem was always that the change in air / fuel ratio caused by a new exhaust, the reconfiguration of the fuel injection (or re-jetting the carburetor to those who have an old bike) to achieve the right mix is usually required.
FMF does not think that should happen. Its line of Apex slip-on exhaust is completely designed and manufactured in Southern California headquarters to operate without recalibrating the motorcycle stock fuel system. Although relatively new on the market side, FMF has been heavily involved in off-road competition in both two-and four-stroke engines for over 30 years. Companies that do not dip your toes in the street scene, although they hit the ground running. In the AMA, the Corona Honda Superbike team are given U.S. FMF exhaust, FMF and other road is wide enough supply.
Want to know the performance benefits of Apex without recalibration fuel injection, we decided to test us Apex Kawasaki ZX-10R. The exhaust is available in two versions - a carbon fiber tube with the tip of titanium, or titanium canister with carbon tip. A titanium mid-pipe comes with each kit. We accept carbon tubes for the Kawi. Installation is quite simple as the directions and all necessary hardware is included. Also included is a conical insert keep quiet exhaust note and good neighbors.
The first thing we noticed was an increase mid-range power. Of course, this all according to our butt dyno. So the trip to the official Dynojet dyno we were in the order. Shares, ZX-10R us out 75.6 horsepower and 161.7 ft-lbs of torque. With Apex unlimited-slip on these numbers jumped 76.5 horsepower and 164.0 ft-lbs. In contrast, the cones in the most quiet (most restrictive) settings, the number fell slightly to 161.2 and 74.8, respectively. Yes, less horsepower and torque than the standard configuration.
While the numbers are significant, what is more important is the dyno curve, as the application of power to say more subtle than before. Shares, the ZX-10R will be dead spots when a gas-usually between 4500 and 5000rpm-effect mother nature trying to make happy. Flat spot now gone, replaced with a smooth and linear power delivery of the entire rev range. What's more, drops Apex fairly heavy piece by cutting the stock cans; the Kawasaki dropped nine pounds, to be exact.
Although they may be a new game, FMF dirt obviously has brought expertise from side to side of the road with a series of Apex muffler. In all of our exercise power output has been smoothed away, so for linear delivery of power where you use it most. The Apex you see here retails for $ 549.99, though pricing is different for underseat and dual-exhaust setup.

Spies to move to Monster Tech 3 Yamaha MotoGP in 2010
Texan to join fellow Lone Star Statesman Colin Edwards at Monster Tech 3 Yamaha team

In what was a wild-rumored but still somewhat expected considering the ambiguity of previous announcements when the company revealed that current World Superbike rider Ben Spies has signed for two more years, Yamaha announced today that Spies will actually move directly to MotoGP next year , instead of living in the World Superbike series for one year before making the move to the Premier class in 2011. Spies will be joined by fellow Texan Colin Edwards of Tech 3 Yamaha Monster team, replacing former World Superbike champion James Toseland, who will take Spies' place in the squad WSBK Yamaha. The spies' old crew chief Tom Houseworth and mechanic Greg Wood will also make a move together with Spies to MotoGP.

In what was a wild-rumored but still somewhat expected considering the ambiguity of previous announcements when the company revealed that current World Superbike rider Ben Spies has signed for two more years, Yamaha announced today that Spies will actually move directly to MotoGP next year , instead of living in the World Superbike series for one year before making the move to the Premier class in 2011. Spies will be joined by fellow Texan Colin Edwards of Tech 3 Yamaha Monster team, replacing former World Superbike champion James Toseland, who will take Spies' place in the squad WSBK Yamaha. The spies' old crew chief Tom Houseworth and mechanic Greg Wood will also make a move together with Spies to MotoGP.
"I want to thank Yamaha globally because of their faith in me," said Spies. "They've treated me like a king! Yamaha recently allowed me to rethink my contract for 2010-2011; I sign for the WSB for 2010, but after I started thinking about Indy competition and my age versus waiting until 2011. This is not an easy decision, Yamaha World Superbike team and crew has been especially Massimo Meregalli was fantastic and very pleasant to be included in one season together. I hope that I can give May, Laurens Klein Koerkamp and others to remember the championship this year with me. Thank I love also extends to the 'Infront', promoters of WSB series, especially Paolo Ciabatti. I've enjoyed the series and this first year racing in Europe. Now I have two challenges, to finish this year provides the best and to move toward goal - new goals in MotoGP. Herve Poncharal at Tech 3 is to show support by allowing me to come on board with my crew chief Tom Houseworth and Gregory Wood, my mechanic, who have both been with me since the AMA today. We will have a learning curve to overcome next year but I woke up to a new purpose. I hope to have a good year and my goal is to try and stay on top of 6-8, considering the talented line up, will be difficult. With the world upside down, there is one constant for me and that's Yamaha. "
Lin Jarvis, Managing Director of Yamaha Motor Racing, will see Spies' move as a preventive measure for the year 2011, when the second contract Fiat Yamaha rider Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo ended. "Following the announcement of Ben's two-year deal with Yamaha one month ago, he has re-elect him and decided that he wanted to move to MotoGP sooner rather than later," said Jarvis. "Yamaha has considered the request and with Tech 3, we can find a way to make it happen. Ben has done a fantastic job in rookie season in World Superbike and now we are very excited to welcome him to the GP program faster than we expected originally . We believe that Ben would be a quick study next season and a strong future championship competitors. We look forward to working with him in the years to come. "
Toseland's moved back to the World Superbike has been estimated, as a result has been sub-par for the two British riders in the MotoGP season. Meanwhile, the current team Edwards has consistently out-performing him, with a much publicized spat between the two because of Toseland's "poaching" Edwards' former crew chief this year and increase the American motivation in the team's increasing tension. With Spies take place, it would bet that the wall separating the two Monster Tech 3 Yamaha rider (as well as the factory Fiat Yamaha team) will be taken down.
