Over the years, Yamaha has been working to perfect their scooters to meet the end consumers. For the most part were a great success. Produce models that are lightweight and able to withstand the elements. Yamaha 125cc and 250cc models are fitted by one million people in 1970. But even as early as 1970 he produced a Yamaha 650cc four-stroke, the XS-1, which was beautiful to see. Today, Yamaha has a wide range of motorcycles and scooters, which include all types and sizes.

Posted by admin | 250cc Scooter Articles | Posted on October 8th, 2009

Kawasaki says the new company in 1924, this time involved with metallurgy and aerospace. In 1949, they decided to write the motorcycle industry for the production of engines that could be adapted to the bike. FIRST motorcycle engines? Product moto KAWASAKI
In their line, you can find two DC 60 and the race of the 150cc and 250cc four-stroke engines with the technology developed by BMW, the company had engaged in since their beginnings in the aeronautical sector. It was not until 1954 that Kawasaki motorcycles for the first complete motorcycle under the name Meihatsu (a subsidiary of Kawasaki Aircraft Co.). Almost simultaneously, they also tried to introduce its line of scooters on the market, but they soon realized that he could not compete with the two giants of the sector scooter these days: the Fuji Rabbit and Mitsubishi Silver Pigeon.
And now before continuing the story of Kawasaki motorcycles, I have to make a big detour …
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON THE HISTORY OF THE MOTORCYCLE ENGINE KAWASAKI We can not talk about Kawasaki without mentioning another make that will certainly become as Honda Kawasaki, Suzuki, Yamaha and one of the greatest actors of Japanese motorcycles:
-> Meguro Motorcycles for improved understanding of the fact that “the elders and the king of four races.” Meguro says the motorcycle industry in 1937. Having good relations with the government, the people at Meguro received the order of the army. The first bicycle was Z97: a 500cc motorcycle tumbler valve Swiss influenced by Motosacoche. It is worth mentioning this model was a success for the factory and Z97 was in production until années’50. Along the years, Meguro produce very nice 250cc and 350cc drum-valve, single cylinder model as well as binoculars high production.
All with a strong influence of English. Then, thanks to the commercial success that they have suffered, have also launched a rocker arm valve 125 cc for their stove and a double-cylinder 650cc low-end to accompany the current 500cc. But did not take place in 1958, when the evidence Meguro rid of their British influence, has begun to when things go wrong … Based on a prototype of profit Asama (one of the biggest races of the time), Meguro motion has produced three beautiful and elegant car air cam: 125 E3, the 250cc and 350cc FY A. Unfortunately these bikes turned out to be too heavy and has not received the attention of buyers. Meguro will soon return to sample dump valve.
Motorcycles Meguro remained as one of the top 10 producers in 1960, but due to some bad decisions, like those mentioned above, the company began to decline and was soon bought by Kawasaki. Meguro In 1960 an initial agreement with Kawasaki motorcycles, and in 1962 had completely disappeared. ….
And this brings us back to Kawasaki motorcycle … In 1960, the company decided to give a serious impetus to the motorcycle division of Kawasaki Aircraft: They took the market for the brand Meihatsu built its plant low and low and buy Meguro-automatic. These brilliant moves and decisions of the Kawasaki motorcycle encouraged to have a range of models on the market. Kawasaki Motorcycles could offer at that time (the sixties), one for black crush 50cc scooter with a powerful twin motorcycle, the high end and nice bottle of 650 cc.
It ‘important to remember that because the very nature of Kawasaki motorcycles always played the role of maverick in the field and that the feeling of independence from their main competitors has always been present. Since then, many stories were written, most models have been produced and many races have been won on Kawasaki Motorcycles, the truth is …
Today, the bike Kawasaki is one of the major players in the field and in their tradition, which now offers a range of products for all needs and tastes pleasant.

Posted by admin | 250cc Scooter Articles | Posted on August 14th, 2009

While 4-wheel ATVs are some of the most dangerous vehicles known to man, people are more than ever to purchase 4 wheels for the children. Not only these four wheels rip the natural habitat, but they do great noise, disturbance of wildlife while causing their terrible erosion. Back in the days to come, young people, soil erosion and destroyed most of the things all trying to enjoy nature. But most of all, is the danger of 4 wheels.
Going to four wheels in one of those big trucks is much safer and it is fun and popular to do. However, every time you take something off the road and take the brush and hills, you will eventually hurt someone. Many people go to four wheel during or after drinking. This means that there are many people, too drunk to drive, to cut back on the streets shortly. A safe way to go 4-wheel is 4 × 4 truck, which is also popular. Yet, as regards the conduct of trucks on the road for recreation, people find a way to make it dangerous, especially if you are young and stupid. Instead of having to worry about rolling on 4 wheels on them, we now have the problem of drinking drivers during their brother, father or truck at high speed on secondary roads. And more than once, which has had tragic results.
No matter how they seem to enjoy themselves, people who are aware of the dangers of four-wheeled ATVs are buying for their children. It seems that only the difficulty of applying to do so. There are things like the cinema and the great movies to watch, soda shop to handle a nice afternoon, and places of music that people of all ages can go. How to enjoy nature in a big hike in the woods? There are acres and acres of wonderful countryside to explore, that should not be marked by recriminations moan of a ATV. In mountain biking, nature flashes so quick that you can not see anything, you can hear the birds sing, and you are afraid of almost all the wildlife is fantastic. There must be laws to protect children and the environment against the dangers of ATVs. Although it may be useful to someone, are not toys and are not for children.
Why, with all this tragedy, the parents do not even think of buying their children 4 wheels? It makes no sense. It’s not like there is absolutely nothing to do in town. There are cinemas, bars, soda shops, the main artery. There is also a place for all ages, offering rock music for children. It is not even touch all the nature that surrounds us. But rather than take advantage of this desert for his calm and mystery, just use children for their 4-wheel drive, the noise to wake the devil himself and completely trampling on nature. It ‘a shame when you realize how much they missed hearing the roar of their engines 250cc 4 wheels. There is a whole world passing by. Parents should save their money and buy their children something safe – like a bicycle or scooter.
