Yes, we are talking about one of the world’s best video games, but the reason we are featuring this here is due to the inclusion of an amazing set of predatory and slick pair of two-wheels.

All you people who have played FPS (first person shooter) games before are surely aware of the fact that in the past, vehicle-based combat in war zones has been relegated to tanks, armored vehicles, and a whole slew of jets, planes, and choppers, but this time EA games have an ace up their sleeve during the gameplay as the Battlefield End Game will mark for the first time the inclusion of a motorcycle.

The motorcycle reveal comes by way of a promotional image for the End Game. There are no details about said motorcycles or on which production model they are based upon, but we are pretty sure that they will be lethal and fast. According to the single promo image players will not only be able to fit two soldiers on the motorcycle but will be able to fire whilst maneuvering them, but that not been confirmed yet by EA. We can’t wait to get our hands on this avatar of ‘death on two wheels.’ The Battlefield 3: End Game releases on March 2013 for the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360. We are already polishing our WASD keys with 20W50 oil in anticipation.

The new Kawasaki Ninja 250R has been revealed and boy-oh-boy, what a gobsmacker it is!

We can safely put our money where our mouth is and say that this is the best looking baby Ninja ever in terms of looks and performance. Kawasaki Japan’s corporate site has revealed the very first photos and details on the 2013 Kawasaki Ninja 250R. And the very first thing about the new 250R people will notice is refreshing and revised bodywork taken straight from the DNA of its elder siblings, the Kawasaki ZX-6R and ZX-10R superbikes. The new baby Ninja sports a sharper and leaner frame along with larger slotted air vents. The tank and the rear are more aggressive, as if it has been chiseled by the help of some sharp knife, and an all new exhaust system and slick new wheels make this baby Ninja a head-turner.

In terms of performance it is quite a complete package like its predecessor but thanks to the all-new DOHC parallel twin with new pistons and crankcase, the low to mid range torque has been boosted a little. The 2013 Ninja 250R will also come with Digital Fuel Injection, but will be available only in certain markets. Ditto for the ABS. The new ABS control unit is the world’s smallest and promises to boost the overall stopping capabilities of the dual-disc braking package. The best part thought is the all new digital and refreshed console the new model incorporates. We still remember that majority of the people in India thought the old 250’s console was a bit out-dated, well that has been given a major cosmetic boost and looks amazing.

No price has yet been listed, but the Kawasaki Japan site have revealed that the 2013 Ninja 250R will be priced at $4199 i.e. around the Rs 2.34 lakh (in Japan). We are just keeping our fingers crossed as of now, hopefully this baby Ninja comes early to the Indian markets.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Vilner Crafts have tuned up a striking and amazing Limited Edition Ducati Monster 1100 motorcycle.

The design firm will be producing around 100 units for die-hard Ducati fans and owners who are looking for a custom Monster. This is the second motorcycle to go under Vilner Crafts’ scalpel – they previously produced a special edition version of a BMW F800 R – and this Ducati is itself an all out masterpiece in our eyes.

Inspiration for the refreshing design is taken from clean body lines of the praying mantis insect the Chinese martial art Kung Fu. The custom job also includes mechanical mods that will make the bike easily maneuverable, specially in urban traffic conditions and power has been uprated by 10PS to 110PS. The makeover body kit includes an aluminum holder at the front end of frame, new headlamps, seat designs and a 100mm shorter rear end. And finally, the bike is done up in an unique Pearl White color which is not available on standard models. Vilner Crafts has not released any details about the poricing or the availablity of the LE Monster, but we reckon, if you have to ask, you certainly can’t afford one.
