Yamaha's GP stars Present Leno with ex-Bostrom R1 Superbike
Yamaha's GP stars Present Leno with ex-Bostrom R1 Superbike
The suburb north of LA is normally home to a lot of television and film production and star sightings are commonplace, but on Tuesday it was teeming with motorcycle racers... Fiat Yamaha's championship leader Jorge Lorenzo, Monster Tech 3 Yamaha riders Ben Spies and Colin Edwards; Yamaha legends Kenny Roberts Sr., Eddie Lawson, and Wayne Rainey – even AMA Superbike championship leader Josh Hayes and Ben Bostrom were all spotted in the nondescript warehouse district near Burbank's Bob Hope Airport – not a typical transfer point on the way to Laguna Seca.
But avid motorcyclists know that Burbank is also the location of Jay Leno's famous 'Big Dog Garage.' Leno, host of the Tonight Show, is a member of the AMA Hall of Fame. His garage (actually a 70,000 sq. ft. complex with several full time employees) houses over 200 motorcycles and cars – ranging from pioneer motorcycles like his 1918 Pope to an 800-horsepower 'Ecojet' car tuned to run on recycled cooking oil. It's definitely a garage and not just a collection, since virtually every vehicle is licensed and insured; Jay rides and drives all of them.
The latest addition to Jay's fleet is fast and exotic, even by his standards – an ex-Eric Bostrom AMA Superbike.
“We wanted to make sure that Jay had a unique bike, that reflects his uniquely effective role as an ambassador for our sport,” Starr continued. “This R1 Superbike is not something that can be purchased at any price. It is virtually as-ridden by Eric. We put it into storage at the end of the 2008 season. We just asked Chuck Graves to go through it and make sure it was ready to ride again.” The bike was a surprise gift for Leno, who thought he'd only agreed to host a dinner for Yamaha's MotoGP riders.
It was hard to tell who was more star-struck. Jay and his garage staff met a 'who's who' of Yamaha racing history. But even legends like Eddie Lawson do a double-take when they see the scope of Jay's garage and workshop. “There are so many vehicles in here,” said Lawson, “that are just works of art.”
Since all his bikes get ridden, it will be up to garage manager Bernard Juchli to find a place to hang a license plate on this factory superbike. When we asked Bernard how he'd manage to register it, he smiled and replied, “I can't reveal that.”
In all, over 100 of Yamaha's 'friends and family,' and representatives from Dorna and Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, attended the event, which included a great meal prepared by none other than Yamaha-USA's own racing boss Keith McCarty. Tim Collins of Alpinestars presented Jay with a custom set of leathers to match the bike, and Troy Lee added a fantastic custom-painted Arai helmet, which included signatures and elements from the designs used by the legends and MotoGP riders at the dinner.
When he posed for photos with Lorenzo, Spies, and Edwards he quipped, “Yeah, this is great – I love being the slowest guy in the room.”
After dinner, as the event wound down, the riders prepared to travel up the coast to Laguna Seca and Jay – who works at his comedy as hard as Ben Spies works at his cardio fitness – went home to write the next Tonight Show opening monologue. Jay couldn't attend the races, as he was already committed to an event in Detroit this weekend. But it's just a question of time before he takes his R1 up the Rock Store. If you see him there and think, 'Wow, that looks like a genuine factory bike,' it's because that's what it is.”

Create Sporty Retro impression Si Fino
Finally, after mature ideas and concepts, the choice fell on Yamaha Mio Fino a retro look (classic style but fancy). So with Mr. accommodated. Rawal, full body kit Yamaha Mio Fino was flown directly from the "State of the White Elephant of Thailand.
To add a strong impression that the classic was selected silver white smoke as the 2008 edition of the bandage dress that was based on the white-Matic. It took two days to dress up this body to the Mio Fino, because according to Mr. Rawal was a bit holder body to be adjusted, and consequently Fino be my first step with a touch of Mr.. Rawal.
To be added sporty look and the "lost interest", do not miss some additional accessories like the shock front and back breaker Trusty, brake handle and grip LHK, wind shield Fino, and the side skirt joined to complete the more sporty Matic on the streets ... step one done. ..
Ok first step was achieved, and the next is the "kitchen runway" is not lost touch. Basicly, because the sporty Fino is used daily with an uncertain route (random map) alias sometimes freezes ... sometimes empty, like during "kedombrang 'till midnight, and must remain in the" rape "it just all kinds of weather and terrain deh , both in and out of town and could surely take a little "exercise". Understandably sometimes romp that sometimes the same deadline should melalah many places and with a relatively mepet time. So yes the risks should be invited to the Fino "sports" a bit.
Steed needs a somewhat "Ojek really", I try to discuss with some friends, and the result was referred to the Fino property of Mr. JP Racing. Throckmorton to make a small touch but it fits my busyness with a super-duper crazy. After hearing the desired concept, then Mr. Throckmorton create a concept Bore Up "daily" as I needed.
Bore Up concept like that was profitable. Therefore, no need to damage the original part of the Yamaha Mio. Because JP Racing itself has prepared a package of complete block, piston, camshaft, cylinder head, valves, until PULLEY ... So JP Racing's attention to detail needs without destroying the original parts, actually lived plug and play ... And most importantly aka final tune settings for the kitchen end of the runway according to desired needs. Finally done step two
After the engine business is finished, now the focus back to the business body, because the concept did not want to seem like a retro-classic look that have been most widely adopted Fino friends the other Owners. So I want to created the Yamaha Fino to the sporty retro ride style, so the idea was created sporty retro look, with many references see the end I trust HSN Paint for working on this idea.
After discussions with Hasan Basri Paint HSN owner finally decided to adopt the concept 100th Anniversary Yamaha Valentino Rosi used in the "iron horse" on GP Racing Season 2007 which coincided with a century peringayan Yamaha, with a white base with striping plaid characteristic red Yamaha and a thin black strip to confirm. And several other components such as alloy wheels, rear stirrup and Speedo meter meter is given a touch of titanium look to sharpen the look sporty scent Fino .

MOTOR YAMAHA YZ1 LIMITED EDITION
No word on the price. But this seems kind of feeble for an limited edition yamaha Fz1; the afterall, R1 it obtained the suspension of hlins, the rims of Marchesini, and a push rod-clutch. We cannot also help but to think Yamaha did not owe go far for the inspiration of design.

The price and the availability when we have it, but suspectent us that Abarth seems nicer in your garage.

Yamaha FZ160 Bison lebih mantap dari V-ixion
Secara Spek FZ160 lebih inferior dan rasanya wajar
Memang benar secara spesifikasi teknis Yamaha FZ160 Bison berada dibawah V-Ixion. Tenaga FZ160 Bison cuma 14hp dan Torsinya cuma 13.6nm bandingkan dengan V-ixion yang mencapai 16hp dan Torsinya yang mencapai 14,5 nm Teknologi yang diusung juga jauh, V-Ixion sudah Injeksi SOHC dan sudah menggunakan radiator.
Penampilan FZ160 mampu mengalahkan spesifikasi dan performa V-Ixion
Ok, dari segi penampilan FZ160 jelas terlihat lebih garang. Pasalnya basis model yang digunakan adalah Yamaha FZ6 dan FZ1 yang merupakan streetfighter sejati. Dan seperti biasa disini penampilan adalah segala galanya, seperti juga artis sinetron dimana penampilan tampang lebih penting dibanding kemampuan akting . Berikut keunggulan FZ 160 dibanding V-Ixion :
- Ukuran ban belakang yang 140 tercatat lebih besar dibanding Kawasaki Ninja 250R sekalipun.
- Bentuk knalpot FZ160 Bison yang menyerupai YZF-R6 jauh lebih indah dibanding knalpot stock milik V-Ixion.
- Tanki FZ160 yang besar selain menunjang penampilan juga menunjang kenyamanan
- Lampu depan FZ160 lebih modern ketibang headlamp V-ixion yang masih retro
- Kendati tuna radiator tetapi mesin FZ160 terlihat penuh, sedangkan V-ixion kopong.
- Secara overal bentuk FZ160 yang mirip banteng lebih gagah dibanding V-Ixion yang konvensional
Jadi seandainya FZ160 Bison dirilis sebelum V-Ixion bisa jadi nasib Vixi tidak sebaik sekarang. Tetapi yang jelas harusnya YMKI berkenan segera merilis motor ini, mengingat harganya yang dibawah Vixi setidaknya keberadaannya tidak saja mampu meningkatkan penjualan yamaha tapi juga mampu menggempur motor kelas 125cc seperti XCD 125 bajaj, Thunder hingga Megapro. … ini subjektif lho!
Pabrik Honda Rilis PCX 125
Salah satu sasaran tembak utamanya merketing skutik Honda tahun depan adalah Yamaha Mio yang masih merajai penjualan di tahun 2009 ini. Nah Honda pasti gemezz minta ampun sama produk skutik yamaha yang satu itu. Mau mengalahkan Yamaha Mio berarti harus memenangkan mind set yang telah lama tertanam pada Konsumen terhadap skutik yaitu mungil, lincah, dan satu lagi yang paling pentingg . . . dek depannya Rataaa. Sebenarnya Honda udah menyelami mind set ini, mangkanya dirilis Honda Beat sebagai Jawabannya . . . Gimana Hasilnya . . . yaaa.. lagi proseslah
, tapi sudah kelihatan kok Honda mulai menebar ancaman yang bila tidak ditanggapi serius Yamaha akan menghasilkan pukulan yang signifikan ditahun market ke depan.
Saya Yakin, dengan Mendatangkan PCX 125 bukan merupakan strategi Utama Honda untuk mengeser singgasana raja Skutik lama. PCX 125 adalah sosok skutik premium . . .marketnya pun bukan market entry level, melainkan market premium. Udah gitu Motor ini terlalu jauh dari mindset konsumen tentang skutik yang fungsional. Bodynya gambot, dek nya nggak rata . . .Walaupun harganya dipangkas menjadi sekitar katakanlah 16-18 juta sekalipun maka kemungkinan akan susah untuk diterima kebanyakan konsumen skutik yang sudah kadung terprogram oleh mindset yang dibangun oleh sang first mover.
PCX 125 cukuplah ditempatkan sebagai sebuah Flag Ship belaka untuk membuktikan bahwa Honda cukup digjaya di sektor produsen skutik. Sekali lagi saya Yakin . . .bukan ini strategi utama Honda. Akan ada strategi lain, bisa berupa strategi pencitraan dengan iklan-iklan yang masif dan mengakar, maupun strategi product battle dengan membuat sosok produk baru atau pun update SIGNIFIKAN produk yang telah ada sehingga menjadi lebih bertaring di era yang mungkin akan menjadi era berdarah-darahnya marketing skutik. Semoga Berguna
Taufik of BuitenZorg
dari pada puyeng mikirin perang skutik . . . silahkan pandangi gambar Honda Solo 50 ini dulu . . .hmmmm bikin ngiler niyyy
