The success of the Triumph Tiger 800 is still so great that even competing brands such as BMW have begun to accuse the British of ‘copy’ their models. Words unfounded in my opinion. The reality is that with the wisdom of launching this bike trail, matched by sales, was expected that firms take out lines of accessories to customize it.

Has been GIVI who is committed to developing a brochure specifically directed to the Tiger 800. Aimed for the Tiger 800 and for the Tiger 800XC , this exclusive line promises to improve performance of both models. Anchor brackets are included, different bags, tank bag, dome and engine guards.

They can keep fragile items through the interior padding, and have a high roof that allows access to contents without opening the main lid.

On the other hand, the T483 tank bag, which can become a shoulder strap or waist as needed, is made of 1680D polyester with Lorica applications, elastic material and resistant. Has a special way to tank trail and enduro motorcycles, adapted by TFS based standard. This bag has pockets divisible, includes a map case and space for GPS.

6401DT Dome Also, larger than the original (size 53 x 46.5 cm). Its 17 inches taller spoiler provides better aerodynamic protection and is required to be set Anchor Kit D6401KIT specific. In addition GIVI protections brings TN6401, engine guards formed by a network of pipes around the engine of the bike.

Without exaggeration we can say categorically that has made ​​GIVI an ideal companion for the Triumph Tiger 800 .

The next 8, 9 and 10 July will be held in Barcelona the Barcelona Harley Days , edition 2011. With more than 18000 motorcycles from around the world and about one million visitors are expected to surpass the success of last year’s edition.

In addition, organize a party first Country (Saturday 9 in the afternoon). Children will enjoy the Kids Zone, with its craft tent and a fun bike circuit. This year Harley-Davidson has called a tender for Facebook to give you the opportunity to amateur rock bands, so that they take the stage.

Regarding the last issue are held exhibitions of motorcycles, custom and classic works well worth seeing. They will also be guided tours, Custom Bike Show and the obligatory Parade of Flags and Barcelona , among other interesting acts.

Again the venue chosen is the enclosure of the Fira de Barcelona in Montjuic, between Avenida Avenida Maria Cristina and Plaça Univers. We are all aware of, these Barcelona Harley Days 2011 are a hot date.

This idea is a mix, unfortunately I found the link to the company using folding bikes to offer this service but the idea is the same.

It is Guardian Angel, a company in Argentina that offers personalized chauffeur service for drivers who have gone for drinks and that they are unable to handle. This service also highly social being by preventing accidents and deaths also saves users to costly fines for driving while intoxicated.

Also users can be sure that will come home without fear of being assaulted or robbed of their belongings and even their car stolen, because the company provides high levels of filters for their employees.

All this with the ease of a call, you can pay a monthly fee in exchange of a number of services or make the call when required.

The idea of the motorcycle is to reduce the cost of transporting the driver to the place to pick up users, and that using a folding bike will arrive quickly, save fuel and keep the motorcycle on a trunk space. Di Blasi is one of several providers of this tip of motorcycles.

Since it was invented motorcycles have maintained that “not that” that makes them so attractive to fans of this 2-wheeled transport. But beyond the simple taste to recognize their usefulness and versatility than the fuel economy they represent.

This utility could not pass unnoticed in the business and now we present 3 ideas of which can greatly benefit.

Moto-Taxis to the rescue.

Imagine you’re on your way to a very important business meeting or presentation that you are the star of your child in the school play, maybe that trip will leave and you were late for the airport. Now imagine that suddenly you’re in the midst of endless traffic jams, what can I do, run?, Fly?, Expect, and what may be called a Moto-Taxi?

It takes time to understand and the coordination of the involved teeth but a lot of practice and you’ll become an expert in no time. These are some tips for motorcycle gear shift to help you enjoy a better driving experience.

It is good to remember that rely on a modern motorcycle front brake to stop the vehicle. When walking with a very high speed, it helps to gradually step on the first front brake gently until you have the pressure to subside. Beware of how you brake. The harder the brake is, the greater the weight transfers forward. This raises the danger when you brake suddenly. Some guidelines to keep in mind:

(1) a shift in not more than one tooth at a time,

(2) release the clutch slowly when shifted from first gear to neutral (this prevents the stall and jerk), and

(3) pay attention to your rev limiter. If you do not shift upward after reaching this limit, this can cause substantial problems for your machine.

To operate a motorcycle, these are the steps. Use your left foot to shift down to first (when the clutch is released). Continue with the right speed when you’re in first gear. Pulled the clutch and release the gas pedal at the same time. Holding in the clutch, pull the shifter. You will hear a soft click. A firm pull will put you in second gear. Remove the clutch again and stepped on the gas pedal. Trying to keep the balance and smooth gear transmission. The shift can be achieved by pulling down on the clutch and pressed the lever. Gearbox will then be reduced tooth.

These are a few tips on motorcycle shifting gears to provide a comprehensive picture of how to operate this vehicle. Make sure that you do exercises to improve skills of operation and also try to understand the functions of your motorcycle.
