Motonation, the exclusive USA importer for Sidi boots is pleased to announce an all new, and for the motorcycle market, an innovative “expanded warranty” on select models of Sidi boots. Motonation’s President Bill Berroth explains: “Sidi boots are arguably the finest motorcycle boots in the world. As such it is rare when a Sidi boot has a problem out of the box but if there is a defect those are covered by Sidi’s standard 2-year warranty. This new “expanded warranty” expands coverage to include crash damage etc, truly a first for the moto industry!”

The details:

Available for purchase ($49.99) to customers who buy a Sidi Vortice, Vortice Air, Vertigo, Vertigo Air, Vertigo Rain, Vertigo Lei, Vertigo Mega Gore Tex, Crossfire or Charger boot.
Expands the standard 2-year warranty from purchase date to also include crash damage, damage from ripping or tearing due to catching on something, even pet damage after your dog chews them up!
Expanded warranty must be purchased within one week of boot purchase to be valid.
Expanded warranty is non-transferable and only one boot exchange (at Motonation's option) is covered.
This program, or the standard warranty, do not cover:
- Boots will not be replaced because of a decline in their appearance due to normal wear and tear or customer neglect.
- Soles that have worn out and need replacement or damage caused by the rider not replacing the sole or sole inserts in a timely manner.
- Scuff pads on road race boots or damage caused by the rider not replacing these scuff pads in a timely manner.
- Replacement off road boot straps that are needed because the rider did not tighten the straps properly and thus lost them.
Boots will be repaired or replaced at Motonation's option. If Motonation replaces a boot the old boot becomes the property of Motonation.
Motonation pays the freight costs back to the customer. Inbound freight, if any, is the customer's responsibility.

Program is subject to change or cancellation at any time however those who have bought a policy will always be covered as promised.

Daytona 675 Limited Edition Released

noreply@blogger.com (NJ Motocross) — Fri, 08 May 2009 00:05:00 +0000

Triumph is offering customers across North America the opportunity to own a truly unique factory sport bike with the Daytona 675 Special Edition. The limited edition model takes the award-winning Daytona 675 and covers its body panels, tank and fenders in a stunning new Pearl White while the frame, swing arm and subframe receive a distinctive Sparkle Blue paint.

“The Daytona 675 has received exceptional reviews for its performance and styling,” said Jim Callahan, North American Marketing Manager for Triumph Motorcycles. “Now, Triumph has taken the bike’s styling a step further with this incredible new color scheme. You absolutely have to see the Daytona 675 Special Edition in person to appreciate the way sunlight makes this bike shine.”

The Daytona 675 SE is mechanically identical to the standard 2009 Daytona 675, which has received praises worldwide by winning several road and track-based tests against its competitors.

The race-bred machine utilizes a 126bhp three-cylinder engine and the very latest chassis technology, including a highly sophisticated and adjustable front and rear suspension. Riders can adjust both high and low speed compression damping to obtain unparalleled levels of control that are suited to both spirited street and track riding as well as compliance for rough road surfaces. New radial-mount Nissin monobloc front brakes give tremendous stopping power while the latest Pirelli SuperCorsa SP tires give outstanding levels of grip and feedback.

A full range of genuine accessories and factory race parts also are available for the Daytona 675 SE, giving owners an opportunity to personalize both the looks and performance of their machine. Track day enthusiasts will find a number of accessories that include lightweight carbon fiber parts and a ‘plug-and-play’ quickshifter as well as race-style rear set footrests and a racing inspired exhaust that were developed with Italian racing specialist Arrow Special Parts.

Similarly, Triumph’s association with Alpinestars technical riding apparel has resulted in a range of performance jackets, pants, gloves and boots that are designed for male and female Daytona 675 riders.

Less than 350 of the 2009 Daytona 675 SE motorcycles will be available at authorized Triumph dealers throughout North America with an MSRP of $9,999 USD or $11,999 CDN. To find your local Triumph dealer, please visit www.TriumphMotorcycles.com.

TBR Tiger Pipe Now Available

noreply@blogger.com (NJ Motocross) — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 15:35:00 +0000

Two Brothers Racing (TBR) proudly lets loose their all-new, powerfully wild, high performance exhaust system for the 2009 Triumph Tiger 1050 today.

Continuing their tradition of building top-level performance products for the street, Two Brothers Racing has finalized development of their latest Triumph slip-on system. Increasing the Tiger 1050’s horsepower output from idle to redline, the new TBR performance slip-on boosts total power output by more than 11 horsepower.

Director of Research and Development, Joel Albrecht is rightfully proud.

“Our Triumph Tiger system is a real beast,” Albrecht said. “Not only does it easily add nearly 10 percent more power, it mirrors the strong-and-smooth stock delivery almost perfectly. In fact, it levels out the inconsistencies in the stock power graph and performs like you wouldn’t believe.”

On top of the impressive power advantage the system delivers, TBR R&D also reports a weight savings of over 9 pounds—a true testament to the top-quality materials and made-in-the-USA craftsmanship Two Brothers Racing is known for.

The ’09 Tiger system is built on TBR’s proven M-2 canister platform and features their exclusive V.A.L.E attachment system for a secure, clean fit. It’s available in Aluminum, Titanium or Filament Wound Carbon Fiber construction.

NEW Alcantara Seats

noreply@blogger.com (NJ Motocross) — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 12:29:00 +0000

NEW ALCANTARA SEATS

For the 2009 season, we have introduced new Alcantara seat units for the Bonneville, Bonneville SE, T100 and Daytona 675 models. The Bonneville seat (A9701208) is available now and the Daytona seat (A9701210) will be available in May.

Alcantara is a synthetic material that offers increased durability and stain resistance. The appearance and tactile feel of the material is similar to that of suede. It is finding application in seating as well as dash trimming and headliners in many high-end OEM automotive applications.

Note: Triumph Logo on back of the seat is embossed in black letters not white (as shown in brochure).

Due to the nature of Alcantara fabric, these seats will not offer the normal level of waterproofing you would expect of a Genuine Triumph Seat. Although the outer fabric covering of the Alcantara seats can absorb water; we have made every effort to minimize the level of water absorption into the seat foam by internally laminating the seat covering with a sealed barrier and taping all external seams.

The seats are supplied with a ballistic nylon elasticized rain cover, for use during storage of the motorcycle and while parked in adverse conditions.

These seats have been subjected to UV Stability, Track Endurance and Mileage testing to gain feedback on both performance and wear levels.

Alcantara seats require special care, so instructions will be included with each seat unit as seen below.

Care Instructions: Alcantara® Seat Covers

Thank you for choosing this Triumph genuine accessory kit. This accessory kit is the product of Triumph's use of proven engineering, exhaustive testing, and continuous striving for superior reliability, safety and performance. Completely read all of these instructions before commencing the installation of the accessory kit in order to become thoroughly familiar with the kit’s features and the installation process. These instructions should be considered a permanent part of your accessory kit, and should remain with it even if your accessory equipped motorcycle is subsequently sold.

Regular Cleaning

It is recommended to dust Alcantara® daily or weekly using a soft brush, a dry cloth, or a vacuum cleaner.

Yearly Cleaning

Clean Alcantara®, by using the specific products listed on the web-site www.alcantara.com. If such products are not available, please follow these instructions: Dust the material as above; moisten a soft cloth or a sponge in clean water, wring it thoroughly and run it over the whole Alcantara® material, making sure not to wet it excessively. Rinse the cloth or sponge and repeat as necessary; leave to dry for 24 hours. Once dried, in order to restore the material, brush it carefully with a soft bristle brush.

NEW PRODUCT..Cranker Tank Bag

noreply@blogger.com (NJ Motocross) — Sat, 04 Apr 2009 13:05:00 +0000

CRANKER TANK BAG
The Cranker tank bag just might be the most innovative piece of moto luggage ever strapped to a bike! This one-of-a-kind tank bag is designed to provide music while you ride, as well as a place to carry your essential supplies—like your keys, wallet, sunglasses, gloves...or maybe
even a pack of gum. And with the Cranker’s integrated amplifier, speaker and MP3 capability,
you can listen to your favorite tunes while on the road at highway speeds.
Through a unique manufacturing process, we were able to design a bag that actually compliments the styling of today’s hottest sport bikes. Unlike traditional soft tank bags, the molded EVA chassis allows the bag to maintain its shape—even when empty. And though there is ample room for the things you need, careful consideration was given to maintain a sleek, unobtrusive profile that visually compliments the lines of the bike and doesn’t interfere with rider operation.
The integrated sound system can be powered by the included quick-connect lead that attaches directly to your bike’s battery or by 4 AA batteries loaded into the amp itself. Three high- powered magnets hold the Cranker securely in place on most tanks. Optional straps are included for bikes with plastic tanks which can pull double-duty as shoulder straps for those
rare occasions when you find yourself away from your bike.
• Patent pending
• Integrated amplifier and speaker—tuned specifically to be heard while riding at highway speeds
• Unique EVA chassis designed to maintain its shape even when empty
• Styled specifically to compliment today’s cutting edge sport bikes
• Sleek, low-profile form will not interfere with rider operation

• Internal compartments to hold your essentials

The Rocket 3

noreply@blogger.com (NJ Motocross) — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 22:08:00 +0000

Words will never do justice to the Rocket III. It’s a design and engineering masterpiece that really has to be ridden to be appreciated.

The awe inspiring 2300cc triple cylinder power plant delivers arm wrenching torque via shaft drive for amazing acceleration and controllable power off the line and through the gears. It’s the world’s largest production motorcycle, but the real surprise is that it handles like a bike half its size thanks to the design intent from day one. Performance, handling and usability will always be at the heart of all our motorcycles and the legendary Rocket III proves it.

It’s a real rider’s bike with unique and original custom styling. Think of it as a Streetfighter on steroids. Its sports bike derived brakes include twin front discs with Nissin 4 piston floating callipers, a Brembo rear calliper and braided hoses all round.

A massive 240mm rear tire and long chromed, triple exhaust pipes add to its presence and confirm that this incredible motorcycle has the performance to match its muscular looks.

New Racing Kit For 2009 Triumph Daytona 675

noreply@blogger.com (NJ Motocross) — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 13:39:00 +0000

Triumph brings their road racing experience to the everyday rider with their track tested parts for your Daytona 675.

Triumph has put its experience working with road racing teams around the world to good use by developing a new line of precision engineered and track-tested racing parts for the 2009 Triumph Daytona 675. Already recognized as a world-class race bike, riders can achieve the same performance as professional teams from their Daytona 675 with the state-of-the-art race kit.

The new Triumph racing parts are currently being used by teams competing in the AMA Pro Racing series that include the Florida-based R&B Motorsports team with rider Justin Filice, son of legendary Hall of Famer Jimmy Filice. The Italian-based ParkinGO BE1 Racing team that competes in the World Supersport series with riders Gianluca Nannelli of Italy and Garry McCoy of Australia also uses parts straight from the Triumph Race Kit. Triumph has won national supersport championships in France, Germany and the UK with the Daytona 675 and its Race Kit parts in previous racing seasons.

“The Daytona 675 was developed to achieve optimum performance on the street and at the track,” said Jim Callahan, North American Marketing Manager for Triumph Motorcycles. “Triumph has incorporated what we’ve learned racing at some of the world’s most challenging circuits into this new line of racing parts so that Triumph riders can confidently compete at the highest levels of performance.”

The street version of the 2009 Daytona 675 weighs in at just 356 pounds and develops 126hp. In production trim, the bike features a new, weight-saving magnesium cam cover as well as lighter wheels that provide significant savings in unsprung weight and further help the bike’s excellent handling characteristics. The bike’s three-cylinder engine utilizes a racing-inspired hydraulic cam chain tensioner and higher ratio first gear that were formerly available as race kit options and are now standard equipment on every Daytona 675.

Heading up the new parts line is a programmable ECU, Triumph/Arrow titanium racing exhaust system, Triumph/Arrow adjustable rearsets, and a plug and play quickshifter. Additional items include a race harness kit, air funnel kit, racing oil pump gearing kit, adjustable camshaft sprocket kit, manual camshaft tensioner and blade kit, a reusable engine cover gasket set and racing cylinder head gaskets.

Here’s a closer look at the new racing parts and their associated performance improvements:

TRACS – Triumph Race Calibration Software
TRACS (Triumph Race Calibration Software) is a new computer program that allows racers to tune Triumph’s programmable race ECU from a laptop PC. Developed by one of Triumph’s most experienced EFI calibration engineers, the programmable ECU and software was created for the growing number of competitors that are riding Triumph motorcycles at the track.

The new software provides racers with quick access to a wide range of adjustments that can be downloaded to the race ECU in about 35 seconds for tuning during testing, practice and qualifying sessions.

Features include:

• Fully programmable fuel mapping (500rpm increments, for individual cylinders).
• Fully programmable ignition mapping.
• Switchable wet and dry maps.
• Adjustable pit lane speed limiter and speedo calibration.
• Adjustable quickshifter cut duration (adjustable at low, mid and high RPM)
• Adjustable rev limiter up to 15,000rpm.
• New software strategies to improve throttle progression.
• Optimized software to run faster to cater for the higher RPMs involved in a race environment.
• Ability to save multiple maps within the memory of the PC.
• Ability to update an existing 2007/2008 Race ECU to 2009 specification and functionality.*
(*Not all features will be available if using the 2007/08 Race harness.)

Exhaust – Triumph/Arrow Titanium “Stage 3” System
Triumph has continued to collaborate with Italian race exhaust specialists Arrow Special Parts to develop a new, full titanium racing exhaust system. This system complies with current FIM regulations, works as part of the factory race kit, and offers a significant weight reduction and considerable power gains.

Triumph/Arrow Race Rearsets
Another result of the collaboration between Triumph and Arrow are the CNC machined, fully adjustable race rearsets. Offered in both standard and reverse shift pattern, they feature a black anodized finish and are a must for anyone using a Daytona 675 at the track. The rearsets can also be used in conjunction with the new Triumph quickshifter.

Plug and Play Quickshifter
The new quickshifter quickly and easily installs into the Daytona 675’s standard and racing harnesses, allowing riders to perform full and partial throttle up-shifts without the need for the clutch. The quickshifter can be used with both the standard and Triumph/Arrow rearsets.

NEW Daytona 675...Ispiration and Engineering

noreply@blogger.com (NJ Motocross) — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 01:44:00 +0000

Since launching as the first three cylinder bike into the highly competitive supersports bike category, the Daytona 675 has made a lasting impression.

The combination of the lightest frame in class and narrow three cylinder engine has always given the handling, agility and intuitive feel that sets the Daytona apart.

The 2009 Daytona improves on this still further with new fully adjustable front and rear suspension, both of which allow the rider to adjust high and low speed compression damping separately.

There’s further evidence of our ongoing performance focus with increased power output, now up 3bhp to 126bhp peak, plus a 7lb reduction in overall weight. The rear wheel has been reworked to reduce weight and inertia for quicker acceleration and improved suspension performance.

Add to this new front monobloc radial callipers and radial master cylinder that deliver track bred stopping power. For 2009 the engine management system has been calibrated to accept our new accessory quick-shifter. No mess, no fuss just bolt it on and plug it in. All this clearly shows how on track development time has significantly contributed to the new Daytona 675.

As top supersport in the demanding Masterbike in ‘06 and ‘07 and the Supertest ‘King of the Supersport’ crown for three years running, the Daytona has already proven to be an unbeatable combination of inspiration and engineering on road and track.

The new 2009 Daytona 675 raises the bar once again.

Triumph by Alpinestars Apparel Now at MADSS

noreply@blogger.com (NJ Motocross) — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 01:19:00 +0000

Triumph and Alpinestars have collaborated to create the ‘Triumph engineered with Alpinestars’ line of technical riding apparel. The high performance apparel combines the distinctive Triumph look and premium Alpinestars design for a unique line of men’s and women’s jackets, pants, gloves and boots as well as a men’s suit.

The apparel line was developed in conjunction with some of the world’s fastest MotoGP riders and complements Triumph’s full line of Urban Sport motorcycles, which includes the class-leading Daytona 675 as well as the Speed Triple, Street Triple and new Street Triple R.

“Triumph is passionate about providing outstanding motorcycling experiences, and having the proper gear is extremely important to achieving that,” said Jim Callahan, North American Marketing Manager for Triumph Motorcycles. “‘Triumph engineered by Alpinestars’ apparel offers class-leading riding gear with a look that is pure Triumph.”

Just as Triumph does with its motorcycles, Alpinestars utilizes state-of-the-art design and technology in all of its products. Each of the jackets, pants, gloves and boots have an aggressively styled urban design with features that were developed on the track and transferred directly to the street for the highest level of riding performance.

The riding apparel features a long list of technical benefits that range from the protective nature of full grain 1.2-1.4MM cowhide, thermoplastic polyurethane (PU) panels and Kevlar reinforcements. Creature comforts that include stretch panels, removable linings and generous amounts of venting make long days on the street or at the track comfortable. The color combinations and Triumph logos are exclusive to the ‘Triumph engineered with Alpinestars’ line.

AS2 Jacket
• 1.2-1.4mm full grain leather with multiple-stitched main seam construction.
• Ergonomically placed accordion stretch panels and stretch panel insert for optimal fit.
• Pre curved sleeves and adjustable waist for optimal comfort.
• Removable CE approved GP elbow and shoulder protectors.
• Removable thermal vest for multi-season riding comfort.
• Back protector compartment with PE padding and aerodynamic ventilated profile back hump.
• External foam padding and chest compartment with PE padding.

Complement your Triumph motorcycle with Alpinestars - Triumph designed Gloves.

AS1 Gloves
• The ultimate in race riding, developed between Alpinestars and GP riders.
• Thermoplastic polyurethane (PU) knuckle and finger sliders give maximum impact and abrasion resistance. The PU construction is 4 times more abrasion resistant than Carbon Fibre and allows for venting across the knuckle.
• The outside finger seam is offset with a leather panel and sliders to the wrist to prevent unwanted seam bust and to ensure that the rider slides as opposed to tumbles.
• The inner lining of the glove is reinforced with Kevlar, a further barrier against abrasion while the seams are external, increasing rider comfort and feel.
• Grip is improved with the suede panels that help the rider move and adjust the hand while racing, reducing wear and blistering on the palm and fingers
• Double wrist closures allow for a comfortable and secure fit.

Premium Alpinestars design boots with the Triumph look.

AS2 Boots
• The hi-spec race boot is ergonomically shaped for maximum riding comfort. Designed and built for racers, the boot also is designed for everyday use.
• The shin plate, ankle, calf and heel sections are made from thermoplastic PU, proving high levels of abrasion resistance. The calf and heel sections also form a brace to protect these areas from crushing and twisting.
• Venting is built in to the various PU panels for airflow, with a highly breathable lining in the ankle and forefoot areas.
• A rubber compound sole gives good grip and durability which is reinforced with a steel bar for additional protection.
AS1 Suit
• Designed and developed with GP riders for optimum track racing performance.
• The aggressive 90-degree cut sleeves give the rider ultimate comfort when riding hard.
• Stretch panels (stretch Cordura) are positioned for maximum movement.
• The sport hump gives increased aerodynamic streamlining for those all-important seconds.
• While most of the suit is full leather, sections are perforated leather for airflow cooling in the heat of riding.
• Knee sliders are standard.
• The lining is removable and can be washed to keep the suit fresh.

The New Daytona Race Team

For the first time ever, America’s greatest motorcycle race will be held under the lights on Friday, March 7 at the Daytona International Speedway. What better place for the R&B Motorsports team to debut their Daytona 675! The team is owned by Robbie Roberson and Niles Bailey with Justin Filice as the pilot. Justin is the son of Motorcycle Hall of Famer, the legendary Jimmy Filice and fellow M/C Hall of Famer Gene Romero joins the team as technical consultant. Justin switched from flat track racing to the road courses in 2005 and has made quick work of the competition by winning the 2008 Eight Hour Endurance Race at Daytona. Help us cheer on the team in the Daytona 200 and wish them well as they will be charging for the front of the pack!
