Ben Spies in talks with Honda and Suzuki

August 27, 2012 by Bike India Team Leave a Comment

Ben Spies announced his decision of leaving the factory Yamaha team in MotoGP at the end of the 2012 season, during the Laguna Seca GP last month. There were rumours of him going back to the World Superbike Championship (WSBK) to ride a factory BMW S1000RR alongside Marco Melandri.

However, we hear that the British rider Leon Haslam has been offered a new deal by BMW to continue riding as their factory rider in WSBK next year while Spies is in talks with the Gresini Honda MotoGP team for the 2013 season. If the deal works out, Spies will replace Alvaro Bautista in the Gresini team and may get to ride a factory spec RC213V machine with full support from HRC.

Along with that, Spies is also discussing the possibility of working with Suzuki for the development of their 1000cc GSV-R MotoGP bike. It will involve a few wild races for him next year and maybe the entire 2014 season as a factory Suzuki rider.

Vietnamese man builds Batpod replica from scrap

August 27, 2012 by Bike India Team Leave a Comment

I won’t deny, ever since I saw Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight, I have been in love!

Yes, people, in love with the Batpod, and since that day I have been literally dreaming about getting on top of the Batpod, putting on my cape and zooming on the streets like my ultimate superhero, saving the world from baddies.

But here’s is the deal, people. It takes a serious Batman fan to build a replica of any of the Dark Knight’s vehicles, and it becomes all the more impressive when they build them from junk. As is this case, the Batpod replica motorcycle. It not only looks amazing, but this is a fully functional hand-built Dark Knight Batpod. It has been made from scrap metal parts by Vietnam’s Tùng Lâm.

At first glance you would feel that the dude’s an mamzingly talented craftsman, and it might have easily earned him quite a fortune to build it. But, believe it or not, it cost him a mere USD 480, that’s a lot less than what the actual Batman a.ka. Bruce Wayne paid for his BatPod replica, a whooping USD 100,000.

Tùng’s video has been going viral on Youtube, which shows him tearing up the streets on his Batpod replica and just generally feeling good and being Vietnam’s own superhero. For more about the full functionality about the vehicle you can click the link below: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7XGwJmsjwU&feature=player_embedded

Canadian biker duo to embark on epic India ride

August 24, 2012 by Bike India Team Leave a Comment

Siblings Ryan and Colin Pyle, from Canada, are two brothers with a sizeable lot of feathers in their cap. They’re entrepreneurs, TV presenters, photographers and journalists. And they’re also globetrotters of the highest order, holding a Guinness World Record for a trip they undertook in 2010, a 65 day /18,000km trip around China.

Their next destination for a new world record is India and the brothers have chalked out a 60 day, 14,000km trip that will take them across the length and breadth of the country. Starting from New Delhi, the duo will ride their brand new Royal Enfield Thunderbirds to the Himalayas and then down south and, finally, up eastwards to the North Eastern states .

The two brothers Ryan and Colin will be visiting the HighNote Performance store in Delhi on the 25th of August at 10 am, and will stay there for the first half of the day. So, fellow bikers, if you wanna be a part of their incredible journey, meet them in person and show your support you know where to head. Or, you can keep up with them at their show’s website, http://www.theindiaride.com/journey.html
