Suzuki carries on producing the GSX-R600 with little design tweaks and presents a new color range aimed at upgrading the bike’s exterior. This is the main 2010 strategy for the middleweight class (and not only) as manufacturers reunite with their drawing boards for future generation models.

Exterior
In what concern’s this Gixxer’s design, it remains pretty much unchanged for 2010. In fact, ever since the 2006 redesign, they haven’t done much to it apart from modifying the headlight’s shape and creating that stylish looking exhaust. Still, Suzuki seems to have ridden the winds of change pretty good with this model, resulting into an aggressively styled piece of machinery with little in common with the one that first came out the factory gates back in 1992.

The front end is cockpit-aerodynamic with the headlight being perfectly integrated into the fairing and the signal lights into the mirrors supports. In fact, if you remove the mirrors and cover the headlight you’re in for a mean machine with pretty much nothing to distinguish it from a racing bike.

On the sides, the fairing has significantly slimmed-down compared to previous model years, contributing at cooling down the engine and making the bike lighter overall. On the right side, the lower part of the fairing blends perfectly in with the exhaust’s covering plate, creating the look of these two units being actually one.

The gas tank is very narrow while the seat isn’t as inclined as you would expect from a bike in its category and that can only mean enhanced comfort. What I like about the GSX-R series is that they don’t feature the sharp rear end, leaving room for a passenger to decently find its place on it.

Depending on the color scheme, you get a black or blue powdercoated frame, matching perfectly with 2010’s Blue/White, Blue/Silver schemes.
Price

Like Kawasaki, Suzuki did its best in keeping the 600cc sport bike decently priced and has actually achieved the same “performance” as Kawi along time. So in 2010, although the MSRP for the Suzuki GSX-R600 is yet to be announced, we reckon it will stay under $11K.
Conclusion

If we turn back and look at Suzuki’s strategy for the GSX-R600 we can clearly notice that the next major revision awaiting is in 2011. But the question is: what more can be done to the most advanced middleweight model of this Nippon maker?

With liquid-cooled power, plush long-travel suspension, a choice of enduro or supermotard wheel and tyre configurations and a six-speed gearbox, you may well find that the limits you thought you had are suddenly not quite so, well, limiting. That’s why this bike called X-Limit. In this context, X means No

BMW F 800 GS "30 Years GS" (2010)

Click Thumbnail to download (size 1600 x 1200 pixels)




Introduced in 2007, the BMW F 800 GS enduro motorcycle expanded the BMW model range, with an all-new engine configuration--a parallel twin.

Like its counterparts, the 800 GS, called a "dynamic grand touring enduro perfectly suited for off-road use," by BMW, has a vigorous look and long-travel suspension.

Weighing just 456 pounds with a full fuel tank, the F800 GS is designed for riding both on- and off-road, plus it has the traits needed for fatigue-free riding qualities for long tours.

As a special model, the F 800 GS "30 Years GS" celebrates a major anniversary in the GS line.

As its first highlight, the F 800 GS "30 Years GS" also comes in exclusive Alpine White non-metallic paintwork with three-colored decals in the traditional livery of BMW Motorrad Motorsport as well as the "30 Years GS" model designation on the airbox cover, hearty hand protectors with a stainless-steel reinforcing bar, a large spoiler element, and aluminum engine protection bars.

The seat finished in red, with its three-dimensional "GS" stamp at the front of the seat bottom as well as white turn indicators.

Like the other GS BMWs, the F 800 GS "30 Years GS" may also be further upgraded individually through the addition of special equipment and optional extras from the BMW Motorrad catalog.

The seat reduced in height available as both special equipment and as an option straight from the factors comes only in black.

Highlights of the BMW F 800 GS "30 Years GS":

= Paintwork in Alpine White non-metallic.
= Three-colored decals in the livery of BMW Motorrad Motorsport.
= "30 Years GS" model designation on the airbox cover.
= Hand protectors with stainless steel frame, plastic protectors, and an extra-large spoiler element.
= Robust engine protection made of aluminum.
= White turn indicators.
= Seat in red with three-dimensional "GS" stamp at the front of the seat bottom.

"Launching the "30 Years GS" special versions of the BMW R 1200 GS, the R 1200 GS Adventure, the F 800 GS, and the F 650 GS, BMW Motorrad is paying its tribute to the outstanding success of the GS models both in the production of series machines and in motorsport."

"Indeed, it was also motorsport that provided the input for the attractive design of the Edition Models in the livery of BMW Motorrad Motorsport thirty years ago."

HARLEY-DAVIDSON ROLLS OUT NINE NEW MODELS FOR 2010
More Performance, Features and Value Across Six Motorcycle Platforms

MILWAUKEE (July 25, 2009) - Harley-Davidson roars into 2010 with nine new motorcycle models, the most expansive new-product introduction in the history of the Motor Company. Across six model platforms, Harley-Davidson achieves a fusion of tradition and technology in a motorcycle product line that offers more power, luxury, and style, and more value.

"This ambitious new motorcycle launch reaches to our riders with the incredible passion that Harley-Davidson has inspired for more than a century," said Bill Davidson, Harley-Davidson Vice President of Core Customer Marketing. "We are thrilled to offer our customers nine new models and a full selection of products for 2010 that lets their enthusiasm for enjoying great motorcycles continue at full throttle."

Highlights of the 2010 Harley-Davidson® line include:
As the new king of the Harley-Davidson Touring line, the Electra Glide® Ultra Limited model delivers the performance upgrade of a Twin Cam 103™ engine, and features standard equipment items previously offered only as accessories on regular-production Harley-Davidson Touring models.

The new Road Glide® Custom model looks lean and mean, with a slammed suspension, 18-inch front wheel and a new 2-into-1 exhaust system.

The Wide Glide® returns as an all-new Dyna® model done in old-school chopper style, with black laced wheels, a chopped rear fender, black "wire" sissy bar, 2-1-2 Tommy Gun exhaust and an optional flame paint scheme. Priced starting at $14,499, the Wide Glide is also a great new value.

The new Street Glide® Trike brings stripped-down, hot-rod styling to the three-wheel category, and joins the Tri Glide™ Ultra Classic® in an all new Trike family for 2010.

Dressed in satin chrome and denim black, the new Fat Boy® Lo presents a darker and lower interpretation of the motorcycle that still defines the fat-custom segment.

The 2010 Street Glide® model gets even more hot-rod soul, with updates that include a larger front wheel, slimmed-down exhaust, and a new tail light assembly. Street Glide takes a classic Harley-Davidson Touring profile to a low, light and lean extreme.

No motorcycle on the road today matches the modern street attitude of the three exciting models in the Harley-Davidson VRSC™ family: V-Rod®, Night Rod® Special and V-Rod Muscle®. The explosive performance of the liquid cooled Revolution® V-Twin engine keeps VRSC at the top of thepower cruiser food chain in 2010.

The American motorcycle legend that is Harley-Davidson Sportster® features six models for 2010, including the $7,999 Iron 883™ introduced mid-year 2009 and four others priced less than $10,000.
Harley-Davidson Custom Vehicle Operations™ (CVO™), masters of shimmering chrome and bold paint, offers four new limited-production models for 2010. The CVO Softail® Convertible is a versatile urban touring motorcycle, while the CVO Street Glide is a high-performance hot-rod bagger. The CVO Ultra Classic® Electra Glide® and CVO Fat Bob® models are refreshed for 2010 with new paint schemes and styling details. All CVO models are powered by a Twin Cam 110™ engine, the largest displacement V-Twin offered by Harley-Davidson.
