Ceramic or NiCaSi (Nickel Calcium Silicon) coating on the bore will provide higher durability of the engine block. Based on my reading about this ceramic coating block, it can provide better heat transfer that relates to cooler engine. On TV, I have seen a ceramic coated cooking pan that have the properties of non-stick surface and very durable. I think the ceramic coat on the UMA Racing engine block also works the same, it provides higher durability with the added slipperiness for the piston to move.

RB has just released a new addition to its sport rim lineup at their FB page. There are no information about this wheel yet, whether about the price or is this one available for moped or just for automatic bikes. I’ll update as soon as I get the information.

Nice!

UPDATE (17/06/2011): This sports rim is available for Yamaha 135LC (Jupiter MX, Crypton X) and Yamaha Lagenda (Jupiter Z, Crypton Z). Price is around RM3++ – RM4++. The size are available only in 1.85 front and 2.50 rear. That is wide wheels!

This items attracts me even it is not about motorcycle. The Turbospoke works by applying the vibration generated by the wheels spoke to the Motocards that attached to the frame of the bike and the sound is amplified by the plastic exhaust that works like a horn.

Very interesting. More information and sales page after the jump  (more…)

I like this scooter! The design is quite different that the normal scooter that we always see. This one looks very tough with the chassis that looks like Trellis frame used by Ducati Monster and the addition of the hand guard. This one is available in Columbia and I never seen it being deployed in any other place yet. Really hope this one can come to Malaysia.
