Aprilia Pagani 150 Cafe Racer Launched In China; Priced At Rs. 2.34 Lakh

Aprilia has launched a 150 cc cafe racer in China called the Aprilia Pagani 150. The Aprilia brand in China falls under the Zongshen Piaggio Foshan Motor Co Ltd, which is the parent Chinese company, has launched the Pagani 150 cafe racer at a price of 21,800 Yuan or Rs. 2.34 lakh. The Aprilia Pagani 150 is based on the FB Modial HPS 125 and the Aprilia CR 150. It is a model that is specific only to China at this point. The underpinnings and the bodywork of the Pagani 150 are very similar to the HPS 125.

(The Aprilia Pagani 150 gets a 150 cc liquid-cooled engine which makes 18 bhp and 14 Nm )

The Aprilia Pagani 150 features a 150 cc engine which is liquid-cooled and makes about 18 bhp at 9,750 rpm along with peak torque output of 14 Nm at 7,500 rpm. There is a 6-speed gearbox on offer. The engine along with other components like brakes, suspension, spoked wheels is the same as on the Aprilia CR 150. The scrambler-style high-mounted twin-exhaust is inspired from the FB Mondial HPS 125 and it definitely looks weird on a supposed cafe racer.

(The Pagani 150 looks like a slap-dash job, at least in photographs.)

The Pagani 150 also gets ABS, upside down forks, petal discs and a circular digital instrument console as standard fitment while at the rear, there is a monoshock. The motorcycle has a kerb weight of 133 kg. Does the whole motorcycle look like a slap-dash job? We think so. Will it be coming to India? We believe it wouldn't. Because India is a price sensitive market and a 150 cc bike that costs over Rs. 2.3 lakh is hardly going to sell. Plus, Aprilia does have 150 cc/125 cc bikes lined up for India, which could be launched in the next one year.

A 1200 cc modern classic with similar design lines as Triumph's iconic Bonneville series, has reportedly been cleared for production. The bike was showcased as a concept at last year's EICMA motorcycle show, and from the looks of it, this is a model developed in China with the Triumph Bonneville T120 in its sights. The Brixton brand though is part of Austria's KSR Group, which imports bikes from several Chinese manufacturers, including CF Moto. And while the new Bonneville rival will be manufactured in China, the design and engineering has been created at KSR's design centre in Krups, Austria.

Honda 850 cc Parallel-Twin Engine Revealed In Patent Filings

Image
Latest patent images from Japan seem to indicate that Honda may be working on an all-new 850 cc, parallel-twin engine. And the new engine, with more displacement to meet the Euro 5 emission regulations, will replace the current engine on the Honda NC750 range, with the engine and chassis shares amongst several Honda models including the Honda NC750S naked bike, the NC750D Integra scooter, the NC750X adventure tourer, as well as the Honda X-ADV adventure scooter. None of these models are offered on sale in India, but with new emission regulations looming around the corner in Europe, Honda is possibly looking to explore an increase in displacement to meet those norms.

Indian FTR 1200 Rally Revealed

Image
Indian Motorcycle took the wraps off the Indian FTR 1200 Rally, which is an off-road biased version of the standard Indian FTR 1200 . The FTR 1200 Rally looks more of a scrambler than a flat-tracker and boy, does it look good! There are a few changes on the Rally compared to the standard model such as ProTaper handlebars, which are 50 mm higher. This results in a more upright seating position. The alloy wheels are swapped out for Aluminium spoke wheels wrapped in knobby Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR rubber. The FTR 1200 Rally also gets a new Titanium smoke paint scheme along with the Indian headdress logo along with a brown seat, giving the motorcycle a stripped out retro look. There is a new rally windscreen as well, which sits atop the headlamp. Also Read: Indian FTR 1200 Review (The Indian FTR 1200 Rally gets the same engine as the standard FTR 1200.
