Suzuki Set For Motorcycle Live


Suzuki is set to provide some of the major attractions at this year's Motorcycle Live, showcasing not only their extensive 2014 model range, but also a range of factory and UK special editions, classic machines from the Japanese firm's history as they celebrate 50 years in the UK, and the MotoGP prototype, as tested by Randy de Puniet.
Taking centre-stage will be Suzuki's hotly anticipated V-Strom 1000, the new adventure machine on display in production-ready trim for the first time at a UK event since the concept model was unveiled at last year's Motorcycle Live. Suzuki's latest adventure machine boasts a new traction control system developed as part of the MotoGP programme, the lightest weight in the big adventure bike class, a 229-mile tank range, new lightweight chassis and 1037cc V-twin engine, and a 19-inch front wheel for the rougher terrain.

Alongside the new V-Strom will be the entire 2014 model range, featuring a new Burgman 125 scooter, a host of special editions, including a factory special edition Hayabusa and GSR750, and two special Intruders, the C800B and the M1800RBZ. UK special edition models include a GSX-R750 sprinkled with Yoshimura parts and Genuine accessories, complimenting the factory red and black paint scheme, a V-Strom 650 Touratech concept, an Inazuma 250 and GSX1250FA with new graphics, and the RM-Z250 motocross machine with the Holeshot pack fitted. A selection of the new 2014 colour options will be on display too.

As well as the main stand, a special feature stand will host a range of classic machines from Suzuki's history, celebrating 50 years of Suzuki in the UK, with a selection being fired up live on the stand, including Barry Sheene's 1975 RG500, Kevin Schwantz's 1994 RGV500, Dick Sullivan's TR50 and John Reynolds' British Superbike championship winning GSX-R1000.

Looking forward too, will be Suzuki's new MotoGP prototype machine, as preparation continues for a return to the premier class of motorcycle racing in 2015. The bike, as tested by Randy de Puniet and Nobuatsu Aoki, will be on display until the final Saturday of the show, before it is shipped off to its next event.

Suzuki GB Marketing Manager, George Cheeseman, commented,
"Motorcycle Live is the biggest show in the UK event calendar, and we're very much looking forward to this year's event. We're delighted to have the production-ready V-Strom 1000 making its UK show debut as well as a host of special editions in our 2014 range. 


We're also very proud to celebrate 50 years in the UK and are looking forward to starting up some of the classic machines over the course of the show, as well as being able to look forward to Suzuki's return to MotoGP with the prototype race bike on our stand, too. 

We're delighted to welcome everyone onto the stand, and also invite everyone to stop by our hospitality unit for a tea or coffee."

SUZUKI V-STROM 1000
Set to be Suzuki's most advanced adventure model ever, the V-Strom will feature a new 1037cc V-Twin engine, developed to deliver excellent low-mid range power and torque. And along with the increased power, the V-Strom returns class-leading 1000cc frugality too, with an impressive 59 MPG figure and a range of 259 miles, coming from its 20 litre fuel tank.

The V-Strom's all-new chassis provides impressive manoeuvrability and agility thanks to a Twin Spar Aluminium frame that contributes to an overall kerb mass of 228kg, some 8kg lighter than the original V-Strom 1000 and the lightest in its class.

Suzuki's lightweight ABS system is combined with new radially mounted brake callipers  providing braking performance that is as controlled as the new V-Strom's power delivery. The V-Strom 1000 also features an inverted front fork and an easy to adjust single shock style rear suspension.

To keep power in check on every type of road surface, the new V-Strom features a completely new Traction Control system developed by Suzuki's MotoGP engineers and is one of the most advanced systems ever seen on an adventure bike.

An all new luggage system was designed and tested in harmony with the V-Strom's overall development. The luggage system provides easy installation, a narrow overall width when installed, and a clean look when detached.

On the Road Price from us : £10,095.00
Available in the  following colours…
CANDY DARLING RED
PEARL GLACIER WHITE
GLASS SPARKLE BLACK

The Dark Side of Mucklow Hill



Rock up this Friday, 4th October, between 6pm and 8pm for a quick night ride on the new Yamaha MT-09 and XV950 Bobber…
dark side 2
The cafe will be open for drinks, burgers and hotdogs. We'll be chatting and gassing bikes. Bring a friend and both parts of your licence (essential for a ride).

It's a chance for a bit of a get together and a quick 15 min taster on two bikes we've no doubt will be class leaders in 2014. If you like what you ride, feel free to book a longer demo for another day. 

Let us know if your coming, Call us on 0121 506 6800 or drop us an e-mail

In the meantime here is some info on both bikes to wet your appetites…
YAMAHA XV950…
XV950
Gotta say, for a dealership that's had sports bikes tattooed into its culture for 30 odd years, we 're all a bit excited about the new Yamaha XV950.

It's tapping into a scene we've been following for a couple of years now. If you've followed us on Facebook you'll know we've been posting pics of some gorgeous "Garage Built" creations from Iron and Air, Pipe Burn and Cafe Racer Parma amongst others. The whole Garage built / Yard built / Shed built "Retro Rocks" scene is ultra cool in the states at the moment and it's fantastic watching it grow.


So what's "Garage Built" all about?

We clocked it in 2011 and was actually moved to see what the kids were doing with bikes we used to sell in the early Eighties. Not flash bikes either. Things like Honda CB650's, Yamaha SRX600's, Kawasaki GT550's. Cheap as chips stuff. Probably a bit tatty but, at their heart, something that the Japanese have given us forever. Solid, strong, reliable motors.

They get 'em for nothing, strip 'em back to basics and then refinish 'em. But not glitzy. Industrial. It's not about form so much as making the function beautiful. Not disguising it in Candies and Pearls but emphasising it in Matt Greys, Blacks and natural metal.

Nothing there that doesn't need to be, but everything that is there is solid, durable and functional.
And the ride is end game for the function.
They're not just for looking at - although they have a radical, unique beauty of their own. They're about riding - Cool and Affordable riding. At the end of the day it's riding the bike that's the real experience. Not looking at it. "Garage Built" epitomises that spirit.
And this isn't new.
When the kids got hold of Harleys in the '60s, they stripped 'em back, junked the trinkets, slashed the weight and bought choppers and a whole new culture to the world.

In these days of austerity, Garage Built is starting to feel like the start of something similar.
Ultra cool.
The Yamaha XV950 acknowledge that. What you get is a mega quality basic, solid, rugged cycle that's stripped back to the essence of what you need to ride it - then you make it your own.

Engine is an ultra slim Black and Stainless V Twin, fuel injected and mapped for acceleration and torque. Gases exit thru a classic "tight to the bike", 2:1 exhaust system. Wheels are Retro Cool 12 spokes anchored by top stopping wavy discs. Paint is no frills industrial, White or Black

And that's where it starts. After that bolt on whatever you need to make it yours. Yamaha will be offering loads apparently. Good on 'em...but really its the prospect of what the after market guys and the new owners do with 'em that excites us.

Well done Yamaha for bringing the canvas to market…
YAMAHA MT-09…
MT09
The MT-09, it's gonna be massive…


847cc 3 Cylinder Motor.
188kg Kerb Weight.
115bhp. 63lb/ft of torque.


AND THE BEST NUMBER OF ALL - ITS ONLY £6895 on the road.
Gobs of smooth pumping torque spin out from that super smooth 120 degree triple motor. It's going to be a hoot to ride with loads of attitude.

Like they say, the MT-09 is "inspired by the Dark Side Of Japan". Having slewed through a few mental nights in Tokyo, that's a cracking thing to be inspired by. Barking mad, totally weird (Adult Cos Play anyone!) but awesome. Current best bike in this class is Triumphs’ Street Triple 675R. The MT09 weighs the same but its 900cc motor is more powerful and puts out more torque.
There's absolutely no compromise on quality.
The MT-09 is also amazingly narrow and sleek around the riders seat area. A young lady from one dealer, who's 5ft 2 and struggles with most stuff had no problem on the MT-09. That’s a big deal to a lot of people.

Yamaha are back. Big time. We seriously can't wait...

More Details on the new Suzuki V-Strom DL-1000…



Suzuki has just released some new details on the soon to be launched V-Strom 1000. The new adventure bike was unveiled at the weekend final round of the World Endurance championship, the Le Mans 24-Hour.
image
The new V-Strom DL-1000 is Suzuki’s most advanced adventure bike ever, and will feature a new 1036cc V-Twin engine developed to deliver excellent low-mid range power and torque. Power output is confirmed as 100PS @ 8,000rpm with torque at 103Nm @ 4,000rpm, demonstrating the new bike's eagerness in real-world riding conditions. The V-Twin engine layout also contributes to the bike's slim design and nimble handling ability.
image To keep power in check on every type of road surface, the new V-Strom features a completely new Traction Control system developed by MotoGP engineers and is one of the most advanced systems ever seen on an adventure bike. The new system analyses information from five sensors on the machine, helping to deliver optimum traction with precision, and features multi-function settings, too.
image The all-new chassis provides impressive manoeuvrability and agility thanks to a Twin Spar Aluminium frame that contributes to an overall kerb mass of 228kg, some 8kg lighter than the original V-Strom 1000 and the lightest in its class. As well as reduced weight, the new bike boasts a 19-inch front wheel - the preferred size in the adventure bike class, providing stability and agility.


The same lightweight ABS system found on the popular V-Strom 650 model is combined with new radially mounted brake callipers, providing braking performance that is as controlled as the new V-Strom's power delivery.


And along with the increased power, the V-Strom returns class-leading 1000cc frugality too, with an impressive 59MPG figure and a range of 259 miles, from its 20 litre fuel tank.

There will be a comprehensive catalogue of accessories available shortly too, including a three-piece luggage set designed during the bike's development which utilises the machines ignition key.

image
Pricing is naturally a crucial question, Suzuki are currently saying that the new model will be priced around the £10,000 mark, making it one of the most competitively priced models available.

Soon as we know an exact price we’ll let you know….
