Make my day

Dacar Motor Sport unveiled a very exciting gadget for the BMW 1200 GS, a Twin Turbo kit that transforms the BMW Boxer engine to a completely new engine with 170HP…yes you read that right 170HP.

So if you feel that your GS is under powered, this is the best performance kit you could ever treat your boxer to, and am sure it could be easily modified to fit any BMW equipped with a boxer engine.

The kit is easy to install and comes with an intercooler, custom made exhaust ducts and an ECU. —click for more—

Nothing Special !!

November 10, 2011 by · Leave a Comment

I have been browsing the net the past 2 days, reading all posts and news coverage of EICMA, i was also following Facebook posts by a couple of friends who are attending the exhibition but unfortunately -apart from the EICMA girls – this year exhibition had nothing special.

It’s more of a scooter exhibition than a motorcycle exhibition, most of the bikes at EICMA were either a different color version of last year models or just face lifted 2010 motorcycles.

Most of the manufacturers had a couple of scooters on display, but the chatter was mostly on BMW scooters the C 600 Sport and the C 650 GT plus concept C and concept E. Aprilia also introduced 2 new scooters, the SRV 850 and the SR Motard which comes in either 2-stroke 50cc or a 4-stroke 125cc. but the most radical designs came from Vespa.

There must be good reason for BMW to go back to the scooter market, is it the gas prices, is it the bad city traffic, or its just a trend that’s becoming a cult ?

Note: the video above is from last year as i couldn’t find any good ones of this year.

Grab a Tumi Win a Monster

November 2, 2011 by · 1 Comment

A couple of weeks back Tumi bags launched their 2012 Ducati line, and now the local Tumi dealer is running a promotion in which every KD50 spent will grant you a chance to win a 796 Ducati Monster -ABS- .

Personally i like Tumi backpacks but never got any of their Ducati branded ones as i only like slim backpacks, i have the Alpha model in mind and am gona go and check if they have it in stock… hopefully its included in the promotion.

So if you are feeling lucky head up to the Avenues or to Salhiya -i think – and grab yourself  a Tumi.
