So much more to see
The star at KTM is none other than the RC8R, an improvement over the average Joe's RC8. Superior ergonomics contribute to enhanced comfort, while the revised suspension and effective mass centralization maximize handling.

Streetfighter, Monster 1100 EVO... now Diavel, a roadster-style standard bike set to take on the brawny dragsters of this world – and anything that stands in its way.

Meanwhile, Kawasaki introduces a superb new street bike featuring the same feisty inline four-banger, same drive chain and same chassis as the Z1000. However, it receives a full fairing for true long-distance riding. The company targets sporty touring enthusiasts who love to hit beautiful winding roads or mountain passes without having to contort their bodies like on a superbike.

Equally suited for beginners and seasoned riders, the new Honda CBR250R uses a liquid-cooled, four-stroke, DOHC, single-cylinder engine and the innovative Combined ABS technology that makes riding easier and safer.

Harley-Davidson proudly presents the new Blackline, a naked Softail featuring plenty of blacked-out components and split drag bars. The Canadian model stands out with a shorter rear fender, an LED taillight and license plate lighting under the rack. Black laced wheels and a low, two-passenger seat complete the retro look.

BMW launches the highly-anticipated K1600GT and K1600GTL for 2011. Both are powered by an all-new inline six-cylinder engine and offer adjustable ergonomics for dynamic two-up touring.
