All the photos i took were bad because of the weather so i decided to use a stock photo
Early morning on Saturday i started getting the usual SMSs’ form the guys asking me to wake up and join them for a ride, they knew i had the RSV4 Factory and they wanted to see how it performs and properly take it for a spin….i wasn’t interested in waking up early because i thought its still dusty outside, but i took a peak from behind the curtains and the next thing you know am doing +200km/h on the first curve that came my way… -it’s only when the curve ended i realized how fast i was going!- Read more

Aprilia RSV4R
A couple of weeks ago i visited Bike World to check the new Guzzi models and was told that they are getting the new Aprilia RSV4R soon, yesterday i was in Shuwaikh so i decided to drop in and check if the bike has arrived, and i wasn’t disappointed..the bike was there..and apparently it just arrived today… they had both the black and white versions.
The bike has the same engine of the Factory version but without the Öhlins suspension, the forged rims, and the couple of carbon pieces, the price difference is huge and makes the RSV4R very affordable, the bike is the size of 600cc but with the 1000cc engine, it has the most aggressive looks among the one liter bikes.

Sportster 48
For the past 5 years or so, HD was either repeating it’s own designs or enhancing on excitant ones, but this has started to change with the launch of the XR1200, the V-Rods’, the Rokers’, the Cross Bones, and now the Sportster 48.
It seams that HD is now going back to its old drawing books -apart from engine and chassis- when designing a new bike and is trying to bring back the the old, the very old and classic styles that were only available thru custom builders…the new Sportster Forty-Eight is all that , it is based on the the Sportster 1200, but with front and rear balloon tyres, under the handlebars mounted mirrors, shorty-style front mudguard, rear cut-down mudguard, single-seat with a low height, and in classic paint options..orange, black, or silver.
