For 2007, MotoGP rules were changed to cap motors to a maximum displacement of 800 cc. In response, Ducati built the GP7. Its specifications were: 800 cc bike, double L-Twin motor (4 Cylinder Twin Pulse).

Ducati started its project to build an 800 cc MotoGP bike extremely early and according to Ducati’s racing chief Filippo Preziosi, by August 2006 Ducati had already built twenty 800 cc engines with various specifications. In addition, an early version of the bike was track tested for the first time during early May 2006. Public testing with the bike began at the Brno Track, where Loris Capirossi had won the day before riding the GP6, on the 21st of August. Capirossi’s lap times on the prototype GP7 were only 1.4 seconds off his track record time set on the 990 cc GP6.

Further testing of the GP7 in Motegi, Japan, revealed that the 800 cc machine could run faster laps than the higher-displacement 990 cc bikes, and held nearly a second advantage over the next fastest 800 cc bike, a Honda ridden by Dani Pedrosa.

MotoGP’s 800 cc era officially began with the first race of the 2007 MotoGP season, at the Losail International Circuit in Qatar. Casey Stoner won the race on the new GP7. The bike had a clear top speed advantage over the rest of the grid, due to its higher output motor. A new track record was set on the GP7. Second place contender and five time World champion, Yamaha’s Valentino Rossi, realised that “unfortunately, there was too much difference between (our) bikes in the straight” and “Our Yamaha will never go as quick on a straight as the Ducati.” These words turned out to be true, as the GP7 enjoyed a top speed advantage throughout the season, although the other manufacturers (Yamaha, Honda, Kawasaki and Suzuki) closed the gap significantly by the end of the year. Stoner and his Bridgestone-shod Ducati proved to be the top combination in MotoGP and he won the world championship at Motegi, Japan, on September 23, 2007, four races before the end of the season triumph, chopper motorcycle, yamaha fz s wallpaper, Motorcycle wallpapers, kawasaki h2

(Motorcycle)Yamaha TDM 900 Motorcycle
Product planner Hennes Fischer remembers: “It all started back in the beginning of the nineties, when we wanted to create a bike, which would be ultimate fun on bumpy small roads. Most of us loved touring trips using tiny alpine pass roads. But most bikes at that time either needed full concentration on these small roads or simply could not cope with the constantly changing surface properly. Something in between a big Enduro and a streetbike seemed ideal for this purpose. “The answer was TDM 850 launched in 1992. The bike instantly hit the heart of the French bikers, who were already customizing their Enduros with street tyres and better brakes. In the years to come TDM convinced the motorcyclists all over Europe of its benefits. Yamaha product planners often hear sentences like : “TDM is many bikes in one: a sportsbike on small roads, a tourer on longer trips and a powerful commuter in city traffic Motorcycle wallpapers#HondaMotorcycles #HarleySuperbike #Honda #KtmWallpaper #MotorbikeWallpaper

(Motorcycle)Honda TMX Motorcycle
The TMX Alpha was launched in 2014 as essentially a rebadged Honda CG125 due to persistent demand as a result of proven record with OHV engines from the older TMX 155, the TMX alpha features a familiar 124.11 cc four stroke, air-cooled OHV engine mated to a five-speed transmission instead of four, and it is started by an electric starter and a kick starter with decompression function.

The instrument panel features an analog tachometer with gear indicator which is absent in the older TMX 155. A bar-mounted kill switch and passing light switch is added for safety, plus, new bar end weights were installed to lessen engine vibration. 18-inch tires give the TMX 125 Alpha a taller stance while also enabling it to conquer various road conditions
