Sport bikes
Fast, light, sleek motorcycles designed for maximum performance, for
racing or spirited road riding. They are distinguishable by their full
fairings and the rider's tipped-forward seating position. They are also
called "race replicas" because of their connection to the racing
category for production motorcycles known as Superbike racing. |
Honda CBR600RR
 |
The remarkable RR uses breakthrough MotoGP champion RC211V technology to
completely rewrite the rules for the 600 class. The RR is the most
advanced Honda production motorcycle. The compact inline-four engine
uses the RC211V's center-up exhaust and Dual Stage Fuel Injection
technology to produce record horsepower for a Honda 600. The chassis
features a massive 45mm fork and Unit Pro-Link rear suspension--another
RC211V breakthrough--that allows maximum mass centralization and
unheard-of design freedom for the all-new aluminum frame. Result: the
most tightly focused CBR in history.

Suzuki
GSX-R1000

The 2005 model had a redesigned engine and chassis. It had 4.4 pounds
lower mass than the previous model and the engine had an 11 cubic
centimeter larger piston displacement. It had a totally new frame
reducing the total length of the bike by 1.6 inches but reducing its
wheelbase only 0.02 inches. There were new brakes with radial mounted
calipers and 310 millimeter discs at the front. The new catalytic
titanium silencer was said to be designed to reduce turbulence to
minimum.

Naked / Standard / Street bikes
Naked bikes have a riding position midway between the forward position
of a sports bike and the reclined position of a cruiser. Unlike touring
bikes, naked bikes often have little or no fairing (hence the title).
Luggage capabilities are often an optional extra. Naked bikes are
popular for commuting and other city riding as the upright riding
position gives greater visibility in heavy traffic (both for the rider
and to other road users) and are more comfortable than the hunched over
sport bikes. |
