BSA Motorcycles

BSA Motorcycles Chopper refers to a particular type of motorcycle that was radically customized to meet the owner's design needs and desires, archetypical examples of which are the Harley-Davidsons as seen in the 1969 movie Easy Rider. In post-WWII United States, tazzi-ruled motorcycle enthusiasts coming home from the war started to remove all parts which were deemed too big, too heavy, too ugly or not absolutely essential to the basic functionality of the machine. Typical elements fitting these criteria included fenders, turn indicators, and even front brakes. As well, the large, spring-suspended saddle was removed in order to sit as low as possible on the motorcycle's frame. These machines were modified to lose weight for dirt track racing advantages. (See the origin of the "Hell’s Angels" for more on dirt track racing.) James "Wild Child" Greene of the now world famous Wild Child's Custom Shop is heret

Kawasaki Motorcycles

Kawasaki Motorcycles Sport bikes usually have a more streamlined, aerodynamic design compared to other motorcycle types. The footpegs are located further back than conventional motorcycles, which enables the rider to position himself in a lower, more aerodynamic stance. Another typical characteristic is the ability to travel at extreme speeds with explosive acceleration. A typical sport bike can accelerate to 100 km/h (62 mph) about or under 3 seconds. Some sports bikes can top out at approximately 260 km/h (160 mph). Superbikes, which are another type of sports bike, can have top speeds well above 200 mph but recently have been limited through the use of a rev limiter to the speed of 186mph (around 300 km/h) in accordance to a Gentlemen's agreement between the main sport bike manufacturers. Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki, Yamaha, Ducati, Aprilia, and Buell are the main manufacturers of sport bikes, although Buell are yet to produce a sports bike. In 1999 Suzuki produced a GSX-130

Scooters and Mopeds

Scooters & Mopeds Most modern motor scooters have smaller wheels than motorcycles, between eight and 12 inches (20-28 cm) in diameter (though maxi- and big-wheel scooters may have larger wheels). Scooters & Mopeds The scooter engine is usually found under the seat with a continuously variable transmission transferring power to the rear wheel, often in a front-hinged arrangement that allows the rear of the engine to swing vertically in conjunction with the motion of the rear wheel. Older Vespas, most vintage scooters, and some newer retro models have a manual transmission with the gear shift and clutch built into the left handlebar. In contrast to most motorcycles, scooters generally feature bodywork, including a front leg shield and body that conceals all or most of the mechanicals. The classic scooter design features a step-thru frame and a flat floorboard for the rider's feet and often includes some integral storage space, either under the seat, built into the fro
