Motorcycle crime rates drop FIFTY per cent!

IT’S great news that thieves and anti-social types on two wheels are being kicked to the kerb after a police force in the UK worked closely with a city council to tackle the problem head-on. The operation put in place has combined on and off-road tactics to stop bikes being stolen and used in further criminal activity – with an incredible 60% drop in bike theft alone. ❯ More on page 5

NEWS 3

Indian’s off track for 2019 The American factory finally unveils its road-going FTR1200 and FTR1200S. Words: Ross Mowbray We’ve been telling you that Indian has been quietly working on a road going version of its hugely successful flat track machine for a couple of years now – and we’ve finally been proved right, as the iconic American bike builder has just revealed its all-new FTR1200 and FTR1200S at Intermot in Cologne.

Inspired by Indian’s storied history and recent domination of flat track racing, the all-new FTR1200 and FTR1200S blend super cool flat tracker styling with a powerful new liquidcooled V-Twin engine. The new bikes take styling cues from Indian’s championshipwinning FTR750 race bike that has dominated American Flat Track since it was introduced in 2016 – in addition to its FTR1200 Custom, which was unveiled a year ago as an exploration of what a flat track-inspired street bike might look like.

In essence, the FTR 1200 and FTR1200S combine race-inspired design and nimble handling with Indian’s new 1203cc V-Twin engine.

Kicking out around 120bhp (90kW) and 85lb-ft (115Nm) of torque, Indian claims the engine delivers power across a flat torque curve, which helps to offer strong acceleration in any gear.

More specifically, the engine features a 12.5:1 compression ratio, high flow cylinder heads, and dual throttle bodies for optimal throttle

response and power delivery.

Additionally, the engine makes wide use of magnesium to lower weight and utilises a low-inertia crankshaft that allows the engine to rev to its redline quickly.

The bikes also feature upside-down front forks with radially-mounted dual Brembo brakes, newly-developed Dunlop street tyres with flat track-inspired tread, a chain final drive, and ProTaper flat tracker aluminium handlebars.

The fuel tank is located under the seat for a lower centre of gravity and more centralised weight distribution while the airbox is positioned directly above the engine to optimise airflow and maximise power, similar to the FTR750 race bike.

As you’d expect, the new FTR1200 and FTR1200S are also kitted out with a range of modern technology, including full LED lighting, a fastcharge USB port and cruise control.

Of course, the higher specification FTR1200S features all of the above and more. Specifically, it comes with fully adjustable front and rear piggy-back suspension with

preload, compression, and rebound adjustments, a 4.3in customisable Ride Command LCD touch screen with Bluetooth compatibility, leanangle sensitive stability control,

ABS traction control, and wheelie mitigation control and three Ride Modes (Sport, Standard, Rain) with unique throttle response and traction control intervention levels.

How much?

Shipping to dealers in the first half of 2019, here’s the prices for both versions of the FTR. The FTR1200 base model will cost £11,899.

The higher-spec FTR1200S is going on sale for £12,999.

It’s been on the cards for the last two years and now the latest bike to carry the iconic name has arrived.

Words: Ross Mowbray

Suzuki has launched its new Katana model at the recent Intermot show in Germany, with the bike based heavily around the current GSX-S1000 going on sale in 2019.

The original Katana – an iconic machine launched in 1981 – has long been a staple of iconic Suzuki machinery, prompting the Japanese factory to use the model’s name in its latest attempt to win some of the modern-retro market buyers.

Of course, we all expected that the new Katana would appear in Germany after Suzuki showcased its Katana 3.0 concept at EICMA in Milan, 2017. That bike might have been ‘just’ a special to gauge public reaction but it was clearly easy to build and a relatively cheap way to get a Katana model back on the road.

In fact, while that concept machine was being shown to potential buyers, work was already under way for the

production model – with famed motorcycle designer Rodolfo Frascoli and Engines Engineering joining forces to create the bike with the GSX-S1000 as the starting point.

Admittedly, the new Katana is a bit of a departure from the original

machine – but thankfully there are still enough similarities to set the hearts of bikers far and wide racing.

The new model takes styling cues from the original machine and brings the Katana’s design into the modern era.

In particular, it comes with an immediately recognisable Katanastyle rectangular headlight – now with stacked LED lights, as well as new LED running lights. It also comes with LED tail-lights and a new number plate hanger which extends from the

swingarm and hugs the rear tyre while housing the bikes indicators.

Despite drawing inspiration from an 80s legend, the new Katana is underpinned by thoroughly modern engineering. In fact, its frame is the same lightweight, twin-spar

As MCM went to press, there’d been no comment about price from Suzuki – so it’s a case of best guess with this one.

We’ve been told by some factory people that the Katana will cost between £1000 to £1500 more than the current GSX-S1000.

That will make the bike on sale for somewhere around £11,000 to £11,500. aluminium unit that’s used across the GSX-S1000 series. There are also KYB fully-adjustable 43mm USD forks up front and a rear shock which is adjustable for rebound damping and spring pre-load, while Brembo monobloc front brake calipers with 310mm floating discs and Bosch ABS is on hand to help you stop.

Its engine is Suzuki’s famed inline four-cylinder engine that began life in

the GSX-R1000 K5 – although it’s been revised and modernised for streetbased performance. The 999cc engine, which is renowned for its torque and midrange (as well as top-end) power, uses a long-stroke design (73.4mm x 59mm) for a broad spread of power

across the rev range – with peak power output of 150bhp at 10,000rpm, and peak torque 108Nm at 9500rpm.

There’s also a three-mode traction

control system (that can also be turned off ). It’s a clever system which works to continuously monitor front and rear wheel speeds, throttle position, crank position, and gear position sensors – and quickly reduces engine output when wheelspin is detected by adjusting ignition timing and air delivery.

The new Katana also comes with an LCD dash, which shows tacho, odo, trip meters, gear position, water temperature, fuel range, average fuel consumption, instant fuel consumption, fuel gauge, clock, lap time, and battery voltage – along with the rider modes.

Motorcycle crime DROPS in Edinburgh (by over 50%) Scottish police force’s efforts to tackle bike crime shows huge reduction.

Operation Soteria was set up in 2016 to help stop motorcycle crime across Edinburgh – using a range of tactics including DNA tagging and the deployment of off-road bikes. And newly released figures show that there’s been a significant reduction in motorcycle crime across the region.

Over the last two years, the multi-agency Community Improvement Partnership, set up by City of Edinburgh Council, has seen the introduction of DNA tagging spray, the deployment of off-road motorcycles as well as revised tactics by officers in roads policing to tackle antisocial use of motorcycles.

In fact, between April 1 and September 1, 2018, motorcycle theft has gone down by a whopping 60% – equating to a total of 278 fewer offences in Edinburgh. There’s also been a 54% reduction in anti-social motorcycle related reports, with 346 fewer incidents reported in comparison to the same period the previous year.

Chief Superintendent Gareth Blair, divisional commander for Edinburgh, said: “I am delighted with the results we are seeing, as a result of Operation Soteria. Motorcycle crime has undoubtedly had a significant impact across the city, not only in terms of antisocial

behaviour and fear of crime, but also on the owners of the bikes stolen. By working in partnership with the City of Edinburgh Council we have created a range of preventative activity and robust enforcement to tackle this challenging issue.

“Our off-road Operation Orbit bikes which were funded by the council, have become an integral part of the daily policing of Edinburgh, improving our ability to prevent and respond to incidents including thefts of bikes. They have improved our visibility in key areas associated with this issue as well as engagement with young people.”

Mash makes Force 400

Mash unveiled its limited edition Force 400 at the annual Parish Motor Show – and it takes styling cues from the motorcycles used during the Second World War. Using a Mash Five Hundred as the base machine, the Force 400 gets green army-style paintwork, a split seat, and a mounted jerry.

It will be priced at just over £4100. But, if you want one then move fast, because there’s only going to be 200 units available in Europe.

Honda’s secret designs for a Ducati 650 exposed in new patent unveils So this is a NEW set of patents from Honda for a motorcycle that’s heading our way.

Now, we might be adding up a bit too much here. But there’s a reason for that. First up, take a look at the sideon view of the bike that the patent is based around – do you reckon that this could be the 650 we’re waiting for, a new version of the old Hornet only this time with familiar Honda NeoSports styling?

It makes sense if it is. We’ve now seen the first of two possible 650s – the funky CB650 prototype that was unveiled at last week’s Paris Motor Show (see page 8).

And with that bike being shown to the pubic, it leaves a second motorcycle in the plans.

Timing-wise, this patent appearing fits in with the new 650 schedule for a possible 2020 model to arrive in dealers in a year’s time.

One major difference between the Paris Show prototype and these drawings though is that the patent includes designs for a single-sided swingarm which is something that the 650 prototype doesn’t have, but the current CB1000R does.

So if this does end up being the new 650 it could well share even more mechanical details with its biggercapacity sibling than we first thought.

THREE updated Scrambler variants; Desert Sled, Cafe Racer, Full Throttle

Ducati has now unveiled three new Scrambler models for 2019 with all three getting LED daytime running headlight, new autooff LED indicators, new switchgear, Ducati Multimedia System, Bosch Cornering ABS and a softer feel hydraulic clutch control with an adjustable lever.

The Full Throttle features a two-tone black-yellow white-striped tank, an all-new rear end with dedicated seat and white-rimmed yellow number holders. It comes with a low-slung tapered handlebar, a stubby front mudguard and a dual-silencer exhaust system.

The Café Racer gets a dual pipe, a nose fairing, lateral number holders and stubby mudguard – in addition to its Silver Ice Matt graphics and blue frame. It also comes with 17in spoked wheels and aluminium bar-end mirrors.

Finally, there’s the Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled which comes with a red frame, new seat with colour-coordinated stitching and spoked wheels with black rims. It also features an off-road riding mode that allows ABS disengagement and adjustable Kayaba suspension.

Honda shows off new ‘Neo Sports’ 650 and new colours for the Africa Twin

While everyone was looking at the bikes in Germany, Honda released a few new things at the Paris Motor Show.

Honda took the wraps off its CB650F-based Neo Sports Cafe Concept in France at the start of the month – and while the bike might not too ground-breaking, it DOES slot directly into the familial theme of current models like the CB125, CB300 and CB1000.

Based around the current middleweight, the bike features similar dash, headlight and styling cues of its in-production siblings.

There’s no news from Honda about when (or even if ) this version of the 650 will ever make it to production though.

What it does mean is that we’ve now seen the FIRST of two 650s coming from Honda this year. We know that there’s a second bike coming because back in August we had the following quote from Fabrice Recoque, director of the motorcycle division of Honda France, when he was asked if the Hornet was finally killed off and never coming back to the Honda line-up: “Absolutely not! Our roadster strategy will be established in two phases.

Medium-term we will have a new bike which will be about 650cc and that will be presented in the coming months. I cannot say more about this.

“That bike will be followed by another new bike, this one will be more volume-oriented and we have already started work on it, but it’s not for now.”

New colours for the Africa Twin In addition to the funky 650 that Honda showed at Paris was a new colour range for the 2019 Africa Twin.

Ranging from an updated blue, red and white scheme to a mean-and-moody black and grey, the bike gets no tech updates as such for next year.

McGuinness signs for PBM

John McGuinness is finally ready to return to the top level of road racing in Macau, after missing this year’s Isle of Man TT due to injury. And this time he’s going to be riding a Panigale R for PBM Ducati. The event happens from November 15 to 18.

Trans Siberian-Express CUSTOM Ural outfit An Austrian Ural dealer has created a limited edition version of the iconic Russian motorcycle and sidecar – inspired by the TransSiberian Express train.

Kawasaki’s 2019 Ninja H2 goes official Badly kept secret is now unleashed, with 231bhp and self-healing paint.

We’ve already told you that the new top-of-the-pile H2 is up to 231bhp for 2019 – and that’s 243bhp with the turbocharger – but Kawasaki finally unveiled the big bike officially at the Intermot show in Germany at the start of October.

The motorcycle also gets new Brembo brakes, a new TFT colour dash with Bluetooth which is

smartphone compliant (via the Kawasaki ‘Rideology’ app you can get a live update on your bike’s tech condition and any potential servicing needs from the motorcycle directly to your phone).

The bike also gets ‘self-healing’ paint which, it’s claimed, can repair scratches to the lacquer within a few weeks, providing the bike is kept in warm conditions. The new paint is on all non-carbon parts of the new H2.

Get your hands on Honda’s MOTO2 engine for less than £2000 Externpro is the company responsible for Moto2 engine maintenance – and with Triumph in place as the championship’s engine supplier for the 2019 season, it’s put its previous generation Honda CBR600 powerplants up for sale. And you can get your hands on one if you’ve got a couple of grand to spare.

While the engines are approved for Moto2 racing by the FIM, you’ll need to adapt them to European regulations if you want to use one for competition. That’s because there are differences in the alternator, cylinder head, crankshaft, valve springs, clutch cover and gearbox elements. In addition, Externpro has spare parts, both used and new that you can also purchase – though it’s worth noting that the engines will be sold without warranty.

If you’re interested, you should email Asier Maldonado at Externpro – info@externpro.com

Yamaha’s 2019 YZF-R125 revealed

Want your motorcycle news FIRST, FRESH and FREE? Then make your essential, one-stop website.

Get up to speed. Every single day.

“The high-tech system is a version of what we’ve already seen on the firm’s R6 and R1, which operates the motor’s variable valve control, fuel injection and cooling systems.”

It’s the FIRST 125 with variable timing.

This is the 2019 Yamaha YZF-R 125 – a landmark small capacity motorcycle that’s going on sale as the first 125cc bike to feature variable valve timing.

The high-tech system is a version of what we’ve already seen on the firm’s R6 and R1 which operates the motor’s variable valve control, fuel injection and cooling systems. The bike also gets a new swingarm and revised geometry to make it more sporty.

The VVT system means more midrange power when needed without sacrificing any of the top-end fun that’s so vital a component of the small bikes.

There’s also a new LCD dash with gear indicator, the seat has been redesigned and the 11 litre petrol tank re-sculpted for a more sporty riding position.

Called the Variable Valve Actuation System, the set-up is different to the intermittent when running Honda V-Tec set-up. With the Yamaha the VVA system is always operating whenever the motor is running, giving the best valve position possible for any particular speed or demand on from the rider.

The motor also gets a new cylinder head with larger diameter valves and a smaller combustion chamber to improve combustion.

There’s a shortened swingarm bolted to the Deltabox frame, the new forks are 41mm units and the rear tyre is now a 140 section to improve stability. The bike is being sold in black, blue or white colours and will be in dealers early next year.

New colours for 2019 XSR700 and XSR900 revealed

700

Yamaha’s popular XSR700 and 900 bikes are both getting revised colours for next year.

A mix of the firm’s thick horizontal red stripe with a black outline and a lot of silver finishing touches add to the overall retro theme and both models get red stitching on the seat.

Expect both schemes to appear in Yamaha dealers from March next year.
