Kawasaki KX500 Motorcycle wallpaper – cool popular superbike backgrounds

The first Generation of KX500’s were air cooled, and remembered for their suspension more than overall performance. The air cooled engines were poorly reviewed in publications at the time, with Dirt Bike magazine most famously calling the bike “unridable” in their June of ’83 issue. Kawasaki responded by lower compression ratios to make the bike more manageable and reliable, but would ultimately design a new engine from the ground up for the ’85 model year suzuki gsxr superbike, superbike, suzuki hayabusa wallpaper, Motorcycle wallpapers, ducati multistrada superbike
(Motorcycle)Honda CBX Motorcycle
In 1984, the Frenchman Georges Martin of the French firm Moto Martin, designed and built a lighter and stiffer nickel tube frame capable of controlling the CBX motor, and supplied this chassis in kit form.
The original bike had handling issues if ridden hard and was heavy at 260 kg (580 lb). Moto Martin isolated the handling problems and eliminated them by unbolting the engine and throwing everything else away. The new frame was both stiffer and lighter than the original and tied the front and back of the bike together. The stock 37mm tubes were replaced for 42mm Moto Martin forks and mounted the single, rear shock horizontally under the seat. They used Brembo brakes and a one piece fiberglass seat/tank/tail section caf? racer style and managed to lose nearly 36 kg (80 lb).
A 1984 issue of Cycle News praise the Moto Martin?s road manners. Smith says his bike is ?always stable.? Cycle News shaved four seconds off the previous best CBX lap time at Willow Springs Motorcycle wallpapers#TriumphSuperbike #KawasakiMotorbike #HondaSuperbike #Superbike #MotorbikeWallpaper
(Motorcycle)Honda Magna Motorcycle
The Honda VF500 is one of Honda’s second generation V4 motorcycle engines produced in a series of motorcycles designated with VF and VFR initials. For 1984?1986, Honda produced the 498 cc, V4 DOHC VF500 for the VF500C Magna V30 (1984/85) and its sister bike, the VF500F (1984?86). This engine is an evolution of Honda’s original domestic market 400 cc engine, originally deemed too small and underpowered for certain markets – notably the United States and Europe. Focusing on adding power and versatility to its motorcycle offerings, Honda bored the original 400 cc motor and improved its power and performance. The engine is almost entirely identical to the version in the Interceptor VF500F sport bike, and while Honda sold the VF500C Magna in the United States, it advertised it as the “most powerful midsize custom in the world
