n celebration of Shell Malaysia’s 10th title sponsorship for the Malaysia Motorcycle Grand Prix (MotoGP), Shell enhanced its Shell Hillstand features to provide local motorsport enthusiasts with a unique and exhilarating experience to entice their MotoGP experience by inciting their five senses of sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch.

This year, Shell hosted MotoGP fans from all over the world at the penultimate 2019 MotoGP race and for the first time in Malaysian MotoGP history, Shell introduced ‘Sunset at Hillstand’, where fans had a once in a lifetime chance to meet riders from any team of their choice. Fans were thrilled by the opportunity and flooded the gates of Shell Hillstand for an opportunity to engage with their favourite riders.

“Malaysians love MotoGP and Shell is pleased to sponsor this premier motorcycle racing championship at our home ground. To celebrate our 10th year as title sponsor, we introduced ‘Sunset at Hillstand’ to enable fans to interact with their favourite MotoGP riders. The record turnout for the Shell Malaysia MotoGP encourages us to continue pushing boundaries to provide the best

motorsports experience for all motorsports enthusiasts in Malaysia,” shared Datuk Iain Lo, Chairman of Shell Malaysia.

Visitors at the Shell Hillstand were welcomed by a display of Ducati bikes at the entrance. It included a variety of fun games and activities such as the MotoGP™ PS4™ Challenge that offered fans a virtual racetrack experience. The video game players were given three minutes to complete a lap around Sepang International Circuit, to give them a taste of being in the high intensity MotoGP race.

i-Moto Motorsport news

The Shell Hillstand also featured a vantage point for the adrenaline-packed action at Turn 13 and 14 of the race at the Sepang International Circuit. It was further enhanced with live feed broadcasts of the race on two large LED screens.

Additionally, fans were treated to a few carnival-like games such as “Guess the Quantity” and “Super Sepak”. To further complement this theme, Shell provided access to various food and beverage options such as Shell’s very own deli2go, Costa Coffee, and TeaLive.

At the Welcome Centre, Shell debuted its bespoke Shell station, featuring Shell Advance and Shell V-Power booths. To highlight Shell’s valuable technical partnership with Ducati, patrons were also welcomed with mock-ups of Ducati pits with an array of the brand’s superbikes.

To complete the bikes’ engine performance and protection care, a Shell Advance Ride Thru service was available at the carpark; complimentary with every purchase of Shell Advance lubricant during the race weekend.

Shairan Huzani Husain, Managing Director of Shell Malaysia Trading Sdn Bhd and Shell Timur Sdn Bhd said, “The MotoGP event is a clear testimony of our successful technical partnership with Ducati, as we leverage on it for the continued development of our products in the most testing environments. This in turn enabled us to ensure our customers are given the best of our high performing products such as our Shell V-Power road fuel and Shell Advance oil”.

Shell has been the Malaysian MotoGP’s title sponsor in ten (10) of the past ten (10) seasons, since 2009, and has shared a rewarding partnership with Ducati since 1999. Shell supported Ducati Corse in the World Superbike Championship and the MotoGP™ World Championship. With over 150 race wins, this is one of the strongest and most successful collaboration in the world of premier motorcycle racing.

Benelli add two more models to its large displacement models for the market, next year with the launch of the 2020 Benelli Leoncino 800 and Benelli 800 Trail at the EICMA show in Milan, Italy. The retro-styled pair of twins draws on Benelli’s previous Leoncino designs for the 250 and 500 class.

Leoncino 800 trail

i-Moto Eicma 2019: Benelli Powering the Leoncino 800 is a 754cc twincylinder, liquid-cooled engine that makes 81.6hp at 9,000rpm and 67Nm of torque at 6,500rpm. Transmission is handled by a 6speed gearbox that works alongside a slipper clutch. The engine is sat inside an all-new frame that is suspended on a 50mm Marzocchi USD fork, which offers compression and preload adjustability with

130mm of travel. The rear monoshock, meanwhile, is pre-load adjustable.

Braking hardware includes 320mm dual-disc at the front with a four-piston monoblock caliper, and a 260mm rear disc with a dual-piston caliper, all sourced from Brembo. The Leoncino 800 uses 17-inch spoked wheels at both ends, shod in 120/70-17 and 180/55-17 tyres. It’s worth noting that the wheels are tubeless-tyre compatible, complementing the scrambler, off-road-ready nature of the bike. It also gets a decent 15 litres of fuel capacity. Other features include an LED headlight and a new TFT instrument cluster.

i-Moto New bike cbr1000rr-r New CBR1000RR-R, the EICMA-ready Fireblade is, at last, unsheathed. Unlike some of its track-focused competition, Honda claims the CBR1000RR-R is not merely ready to race. Instead, it is born to race. Consider that particular gauntlet thrown.

Bringing the Fireblade closer in line with its legendary RC213V-S street-legal race bike was Honda’s goal. To meet it, the new CBR1000RR-R produces 214hp at 14,500 rpm, as well as 113Nm of torque at 12,500 rpm. With all this power, it still manages to weigh in at just 201kg The CBR1000RR-R also gets a new aerodynamics package descended directly from the RC213V race.

Honda also introduced an SP variant of the CBR1000RR-R, which will come with some very tasty upgrades: second-generation semi-active Öhlins EC 43mm NPX front forks, an Öhlins TTX36 Smart-EC rear shock, Brembo Stylema four-piston radial front calipers, and the Brembo monoblock rear caliper previously seen on the RC213V-S.

Aprilia RS250 SP

The Aprilia RS 250 SP, that exploits all the know-how and technology of the Noale Racing Department, will feature the best racing components (Brembo, Öhlins, SC Project) in the search for the best weight/power ratio, weighing in at 35 Kg less than the RS 125 street model. It will mount Pirelli-shod Marchesini 17” wheel rims. Such a high level of technical features and components will be an integral part of the technical regulations, to take all the bikes to their maximum performance so that it will be the riders with their talent that shines through and not the different preparation of the vehicles being raced.

Produced by technical partner Ohvale a Veneto-based leader in the small motorcycle market - the target price of the Aprilia RS 250 SP is very competitive, under €10,000, precisely because one of the most important objectives of the FMI Aprilia Sport Production Championship is to make motorcycle racing accessible to range of enthusiasts that is as vast as possible.

APRILIA RS250 SP

A late-surprise at the EICMA show in Milan, when we had to rush to Aprilia booth. Two Italian names in small-displacement racing have come together to get young riders on the race track. Aprilia and Ohvale, have collaborated to build the Aprilia RS 250 SP race bike.

The Aprilia RS 250 SP is like a bigger Ohvale in its presentation, complete with 17″ wheels, and all the high-performance parts you would expect to see on a proper racing machine. since the RS250, Aprilia representation in 250 was last seen when the end of two-stoke era.

But this could also be described as future Aprilia road RS250 "road replica", due to the similarity between both bikes.

i-Moto Eicma, milano

i-Moto Eicma, milano

The Aprilia RS250 is a two-stroke 249 cc sport bike made

by Italian motorcycle manufacturer Aprilia. The Aprilia RS250 features race oriented motorcycle with technology derived from Aprilia's racing experience. It is inspired by the Aprilia RSW250 Grand Prix motorcycle used by riders such as Valentino Rossi, Max Biaggi and Loris Capirossi in MotoGP races.

History Aprilia had plenty of success in 250 cc GP racing so the RS250 was no surprise when it was released in 1994.

The Aprilia RS250 is powered by a modified Suzuki RGV250 engine using Aprilia's own exhaust and intake systems. The fuel feeding system is comprised of two 34 mm flat slide Mikuni carburettor that control the air/fuel mixture. This represents a big difference compared to their GP 250 race bike, which used the Rotax Austria 250 cc motor. The Aprilia RS250 uses a Suzuki RGV250 VJ22(90° 2-Stroke V-Twin)engine with a slightly modified engine management.

The chassis is made using polished alloy with a parametric pressed twin spar frame. The engine is used as stressed member. The chassis design and appearance is unique to Aprilia and provides a very stable and responsive feeling for the rider to lean over during highspeed cornering.

The swingarm is made out of polished aluminium and shaped like a banana, which has become synonymous with two-stroke sportbikes. The swingarm's movement is controlled by a fully adjustable Sachs shock with the usual remote reservoir.

The forks are 41 mm Showa upside-down units (on the latest model) that are as fully adjustable as the rear shock.

The brakes on the RS 250 are dual, four-piston Brembos up front clamping down on 298 mm rotors with a single, twin-piston caliper, out back grabbing hold of a 220 mm rotor.

1997 Aprilia RS250 Replica Production 1995-2002 (road) Engine: Liquid cooled,249 cc,2-stroke,90degree V-Twin Transmission 6-speed sequential, chain Wheelbase: 1,370 mm (53.9 in)
