Geno Posted: Just a friendly hello from Geno Altman .
A lot of us are or know several individuals and families affected by the huge economic crisis our country is going thru. My heart goes out to all of you having financial difficulties. I know this seems a little off topic so I’ll get to the point. Some of you may be seeking the best deals on parts and gear, lower sportbike insurance rates, best gas prices in your area, etc. I’m committed to assisting the members of www.sportbike411.com in finding the best deals on parts, gear, and insurance. If you need assistance I can help point you in the right direction. Just send me a message here on the website. Also, we’ve restructured our sportbike classifieds to make it slightly easier to navigate. Post your sportbike parts and gear ads on our classifieds section or search for parts and gear listed by other sportbike riders .
Sincerely,
Geno Altman
President - Sportbike 411

moderator Posted: Other than some minor tweaks here and there - can’t say we see a big difference between the 2008 and 2009 Yamaha R1.1 extra mm of bore, .05 gallons larger gas tank, and they shaved a whole .1 inch off the seat height. You’ll see some minor body work changes on the new R1. New exhaust look- slightly better performance over last years model. Another great liter bike from Yamaha.

Police Hayabusa - now this makes me want to be a motorcycle cop!
Custom Yellow Hayabusa
Wicked looking custom busa!
Simply sick! But how do you pull a wheelie on this bike?
Could you imagine a Hayabusa with a Jet Engine???

SportBikeStunts Posted: Can Yamaha bring back the two stroke motorcycle? The new “sportbike” is supposed to be fairly light weight (around 320 lbs) and produce about 75 horsepower to the back wheel. Power to weight ratio will make this bike run with the 600 series sportbikes.

moderator Posted: Wow, lot’s of improvement on the 2009 Kawasaki ZX-6R. Modified cylinder bank angle, more power, switched to the ZX-10R swingarm, new front fork design using a 45mm tube for inner wall, shaved 22lbs off the overall bike weight, the whole lower right side is new. Lot’s of great changes and this bike is now turning faster lap times at the track.

moderator Posted: BMW Motorrad has manufactured the 1,000 cc “S 1000 RR” to contend in the 2009 Superbike World Championship.
The BMW will only produce 1000 production models in 2009. This Superbike is targeted to weigh 419lbs and produce 190 bhp. The S1000RR will probably not reach dealers until 2010. Have not heard any price related information about this bike.
