i missed out the f4cc also.. its damn nice.. even more cool than how the black R looks..

 

or u got the f4cc?? haha 1080 leh

they have the bore kit to 1080cc.... for the F4

 

its from moto corse ..... so whoever wants to try for fun. can upgrade the cyclinder.

 

i cant afford the F4CC even if i can .... its not worth to buy that in singapore .... no where to run

preciously ... you got to take note ... the bigger the CC the hoter it is .... as it is now ..

 

its freaking hot for the F4

ya.. i agree.. although twin and il4 is quite diff.. but i tink the heat generated is not dat big gap...

 

a naked twin cools much faster and heat up much slower compared to my 10

 

the 10 has some ventilation too.. f4 is totally.. holeless....

The prob with F4 is the faiiring ..... it has no vent for the air to rush out ... all the hot air is trap in ..... relying on the fan to cool the hot air......

 

it has both pros n cons why it was design this way....

 

fyi .... it does make a difference in the heat dissipation even though its only 80 cc increase.....

 

you will be surprise how big the gap is

thanks guys. seems like the Tamburini rider is not on this thread. maybe i can "catch" him some other day. haha

ya i every ask if he wants to sell his tambu but apparently not.... was sad.

 

at that point of time i had few deals overseas for Tambu but the paper work is a hassle

no shoot, you wanted to buy his Tanburini? Or were you just joking?

 

you must be some loaded dude to want to buy a Tamburini

ya.. but i guess they got their reason for not letting any holes on the fairing.. super aero dynamic???

 

80cc more does not only produce a great diff of heat... i guess power wise oso great diff..

 

even the zx636 and normal 600cc.. heard say diff in power is alot:thumb:

very true ... the 1080cc is damn powerful and very touque

[ayuluv]

ya.. it seems dat the trend of 1080 cc is starting =p

what do u mean by trend .... well im not sure abt this though ?

 

well from what i know ..... Ducati is the next Jap to be ....... They dont seems to have any continuation of the series..... They keep changing and not making the nex revolution.

 

1068R is now the most contradicting Bike coz it was recently reject from Racing due to the fact its a 1200 cc

 

They, Ducati has made the biggest mistake coz its them who push for a 1000cc superbike race but now they want more....

TWO WHEELS ONLY - A CHAT WITH ANDREA GOGGI

 

Why make the 312R now?

Around July 2006 we found for the first time it was possible to by titanium for reasonable cost. For it to be used in a production model we have to keep cost down as the development costs alone are expensive. Now we can bring this benefit to production bikes. Our goal was more revs, more power. What we have in the 312 is the best for both power and revs

 

The F4 concept is some ten years old, is it nearing the end?

No, we are already working on further evolution of the engine reducing the weight and changing the lubrication system. Every year there is a new Japanese rival and we are fighting to be the best. Our response is evolution, not to start with something new every three years as the Japanese do. The F4 is a demonstration that if you start with a good basic package, then you can continue development from there.

 

You mentioned track days in your briefing.

Yes, the F4 is becoming more and more of a track bike. If you ride this kind of bike fast on the road, then you are risking your life every time you turn the key. Normal road riders buy naked type bikes. The philosophy of this bike is that it is performance before cost. So we have a massive front part to the bike (50mm Marzocchis) and so many parts are built to strict tolerances. It’s the philosophy of Tamburini and why our bikes are so different to the Japanese.

 

What’s in the future for MV bikes?

We have been working with Magneti Marelli from the beginning and if we were to develop any aspect it would be traction control that would benefit the riders.

hmm.. from wat i noe.. the next one ducati is coming up will be 1188cc i suppose. It was owned by a US or british company when CC sold ducati at high price..

 

therefore i believe its abit out of the italian trend.

 

so mv is having cheaper titanium to make for production bikes.. mayb CF and magnesium will be next.. haha
