The Bullitt Fullface Helmet

We couldn't be happier to report that the Bullitt helmet concept we featured back in 2012 was picked up by Bell Helmets.  With the seemingly ever-growing popularity of all things retro, there's no doubt there's still room for another full face helmet that blends vintage style with modern technology.  Here at the Bullitt, that's basically the definition of what we stand for.

The Ruby Castel was really the first to hit the market but with a price point of $1250 USD, it's not really a helmet for the masses.  Enter Biltwell, with the budget friendly Gringo.  Now that's a vintage-inspired fullface for us all. Until the Bullitt by Bell hits the market, those are your two choices for DOT approved modern fullface with a vintage feel.  In March of next year, Bell will slip right into the middle with a point of entry at $400 USD.  

Not all the details are out on Bell's Bullitt just yet but based on everything we see so far, we know this one will be a big hit!

Triumph Racer Holographic Hammer Design

Holographic Hammer is the alter ego of BMW Motorrad designer, Sylvain Berneron.  You may have seen his work under his Holographic Hammer name in concepts for Fuel Motorcycles, Untitled Motorcycles and here, when we posted his great image, “Norton: Old vs. New”.  

Working in the motorcycle industry, Berneron has tons of moto-minded friends and has digitally sketched out numerous garage build for his pals.  Being able to “see” the end result prior to actually building it can save a lot of time in the long run. 

OK, this last one isn't a Triumph, but I had to include it anyway.

I’m sure we’re all guilty of convincing ourselves a mod would be perfect on a build only to decide later that it just doesn't look right.  Berneron takes the guess work out of it.  I’d love to get a few mock of the Bullitt OG done myself…

Ural Gaucho Rambler Motorcycle New

“For West is where we all plan to go some day. It is where you go when the land gives out and the old-field pines encroach. It is where you go when you get the letter saying: Flee, all is discovered. It is where you go when you look down at the blade in your hand and the blood on it. It is where you go when you are told that you are a bubble on the tide of empire. It is where you go when you hear that thar’s gold in them-thar hills. It is where you go to grow up with the country. It is where you go to spend your old age. Or it is just where you go.”

—Robert Penn Warren

Motorcycling has always been synonymous with exploration.  Those of us to dare to take to the roads, teeming with distracted and reckless drivers, require nerves of steel.  We're the ones who are unafraid to take the road less traveled, and we do it frequently.  There's nothing quite like exploring somewhere new on a motorcycle.  Being so exposed and out there you get to connect on a different level.  The new smells and the wind/sun/rain in your face allow you to connect on a deeper level.  Ural Motorcycles were initially built to take its riders through Russia where the roads or poor, or more often than not, completely non-existent.  Urals were necessary to navigate and transport gear throughout the rough countryside.

This year’s limited edition Ural is a wistful homage to a past age.  The 2013 American West-inspired limited edition Ural Gaucho Rambler, a motorcycle created in collaboration with Pendleton Woolen Mills.  The color is new, chosen by Pendleton, and is named Pacific Blue. The bike comes with sunburned canvas upholstery and a “Journey West” blanket by Pendleton. The Gaucho Rambler is equipped with Ural’s legendary 2wd capability to overcome adverse terrains. This is a bike ready for the long road and the spiritual journey devoid of stuff. No need to pack, no need to prepare, there’s nothing to do but go.

The Ural site explains the inspiration for the Gaucho Rambler; "With nothing more than their horse, a knife, and a poncho, the cowboys of the Americas, or gauchos as there known elsewhere, rambled through the country, living off the land, taking each day as it came, always on a journey towards the sunset. The rebel spirit of the gaucho is very much in the heart and soul of each Ural. Taking to the road, with no specific goal in mind is something every rider longs for…"

There's no question any of us seeking a motorcycle adventure could go swoop up a brand new adventure bike like the BMW GS, Triumph Tiger or any of the other great modern adventure bikes.  They would do the job just fine, but there's just something about a vintage-inspired bike like the Gaucho Rambler that speaks to the soul.  The Iron and Resin crew mounted surf racks onto their Ural and charged down the Baja Peninsula in search of cold beer, uncrowded waves and good times.  Now that's an adventure, and we want in!   

Advantages And Disadvantages Monoshock

advantages-and-disadvantages-monoshock

Replacing the motor from the twin shock suspension shockbreaker alias alias shockbreaker twins into a single monoshock has now become a trend everywhere. In addition to a more stylized - as mono suspension system is usually used by the motor racing circuit and in both matches crosstrack - also become more stable driving.

"For the monoshock, then when the motor pedestal maneuver load on just one point so bike more stable". Conversely, when the motor using the double shockbreaker pedestal undue burden on the equally great in both shock is only supported by a single shock when cornering and swerving motorcycles and weaving. Consequently, the motor is not stable when motorists to maneuver.

As a result, in addition to motorcycle instability is also less agile to maneuver. However, monoshock it also has some shortcomings. "Plus minus has to be considered, so that the motor can be wise users drive properly and safely,"

So what are the advantages and disadvantages monoshock? What should be done by the owner of the motor? How to modify the motor before using twin shock to monoshock?

Here I share tips for you:

A. Excess


There are several advantages of monoshock suspension devices include:

Soft 1.Lebih
According Opan, experience so far has shown that when users monoshock suspension bike using the devices properly, the device ditoimbulkan effect was much more comfortable than the twin shock. Swing and a softer spring response when the rider climbs bulldoze or potholes.

However, one thing to note their use should also be in accordance with the manufacturer's advice or recommendations. For example, the load being transported does not exceed the set.
"Each motor must have the maximum load rule, for example, the motor weighs only 95 pounds then do a load more than that,"

2. More style
Monoshock devices commonly used by motor sport racing biasadigunakan in the game. Thus, using the device's motor will also emit an aura of sportiness.
Moreover, in terms of a more concise, practical and minimalist. "Views like that that mekmbuat people devoted to the devices,"

3. More stable performance
Monoshock strongly support the stability of the motor when the driver maneuvering around corners, sharp winding roads, potholes or bumpy in the medium or even high speed.
Stability was created because of the burden to be distributed by the motor when the action on the track is supported by a variety of one point from the beginning was prepared capable of withstanding heavy loads. Through monoshock motor load is centered in the middle of the swing arm.
It is different with the twin shock, as from the outset designed to share the load to the second point in each shockbreaker. "So, when cornering or maneuvering loads are supported shockbreaker Distinct. That is what causes instability, "explains Opan.

B. Shortage

Besides exposing monoshock advantages, some drawbacks such devices. Some shortcomings devices include:

1. Not suitable for carrying heavy loads
Because this kind of fulcrum shockbreaker only one place it has always strived mengakut load does not exceed the standards set manufacturer. When you exceed that number, then the components of the device that will quickly wear out or damaged.
In fact, if enforced - for example, driving with three or more - then the shock is likely to subsidence. If that happens, then you must be prepared to spend in deeply, because the cost of expensive repairs.

2. Shorter lifespan
In general, the manufacturer set the life or age shockbreaker is 20 thousand kilometers usage. Indeed, it could be the owner of a motor vehicle suspension devices are still okay despite a distance of 20 thousand kilometers.
"However, they must be vigilant. Therefore, the service life has exceeded the limit of potential can occur when damaged, so it needs high vigilance, "
In addition, the owner of the motor must also be diligent in checking the oil suspension in the tube. Because, if the oil has been diluted can cause the device does not work seacar maximum. If that happens, then the danger was lurking.

3. More expensive
To install or modification of the twin shock to monoshock diperl; ukan cost is not small. With the benchmark price of existing components, to the range of motorcycle modification costs USD 1.8 to 2.5 million.
In addition, the modifications must also be supported by a powerful motor chassis and front suspension devices are qualified. If not, precisely lead to potential accidents. Therefore, it could happen, when the speeding motorcycle suddenly collapses. Motor also wobble-wobble.
However, if the motor has a strong chassis and components and installation price is not expensive, it is much more profitable monoshock.
Those are some advantages and disadvantages monoshock. Hopefully useful.
