 Buying power of the Indians has increased manifold in the last decade or two, pushing bike manufacturers to launch new products as unprecedented pace. Bike enthusiasts, who have enough currency in their pockets, go for their fancied products, while those who have enough time and patience, but not money, try to get their bikes modified to make them look or perform like models of their choice.






Types of Modifications
Bikes could be modified in two ways: Performance wise or Looks wise. You could go for the both too. Looks modification could give you the satisfaction of riding a super bike. However, performance modification in no way guarantees that your bike would not perform like the bike of your dreams


Effects of Modifications
You must keep in mind that modification does not change a cheaper bike to super bike. It just fakes the physical appearance. So even if you get a bike resemble a highly superior bike, you must be aware of the limitations of the basic model. Performance modifications do increase the efficiency of the bike, to a limited extent. Body modification usually decreases mileage and performance, for the basic engine is not toned to those accouterments.


 

Electric motorbike

I only work 3 miles from home but with gas prices getting out of control, I thought it would be great to have an electric vehicle. I've always wanted a motorcycle and decided that making an electric motorcycle would be a good EV project, keeping costs down, and be fun to ride.

We are always on the lookout for non-petroleum based means of transportation so its no wonder that the stylish Vectrix electric motorbike caught our attention. If you are going to live life in the fast lane, this sleek, all-electric, zero-emission motorbike might just be your best green solution for reducing fossil fuel consumption and emissions while riding around town. It runs clean, super far per charge and extremely fast, making it a smart alternative to four-wheeled city travels. See just how fast the Vectrix gets around in the video after the jump.

 

Start by removing all of those nasty internal combustion engine parts. Remove the gas tank and using your grinder or other cutting tool to cut out the bottom. This makes room for extra batteries or components. (Make sure all gas is out before cutting) Reference your owners manual so that you don't cut any necessary wires, and try to sell some of the parts to help pay for this project.

Next, make cardboard mock ups of all of your batteries and electronic components to see how and where things are going to fit. Take a look at my pictures to see how I fit everything, believe me that taking the time to make accurate cardboard mock ups is well worth the effort.

Now for the hard part. You need a secure battery box and motor mount. I had a friend weld it up for me and he did a fantastic job. From the photos you can see that he first strung up the motor to allow for minor adjustment to be made before cutting the motor mount plate. After that was cut he made a nice chain and sprocket enclosure with a door and welded them onto the frame.

Next he fabricated the battery rack and gave each battery a swing arm closure to give a tight fit yet still allow me to get them out easily. Half inch foam padding spacers are between each battery to help cushion the stack--but believe me, they aren't going anywhere. The last thing
he did was weld in metal plates for mounting my electrical components.

After you get your motor mount and battery compartment all welded up, take some time to clean up the frame of your bike. I removed any rust spots and chipped paint that I could find. Then I used some metallic gray and black spray paint. This makes a world of difference and costs very little.

I made a fake gas cap and ran the power cord from the charger up the frame and out the top.

Now that you have all of the welding done and your frame looks great, let's install the electrical components and start wiring it up.

 

 

bike and history

The first motor bike was designed by the German inventors Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach in 1885. In 1984, Hildebrand & Wolf Muller became the purchaser of first motorbike. Until the First World War, the largest motorcycle manufacturer in the world was Indian, producing over than 20,000 motorbikes per year. By 1920, these honors went to Harley-Davidson, with their motorcycles being sold by dealers in 67 countries. In 1928, DKW took over as the largest manufacturer. After the Second World War, the BSA Group became the largest producer of motorbikes in the world, producing up to 75,000 bikes per year in the 1950s. The German company NSU Motorenwerke AG held the position of largest manufacturer from 1955 until the 1970s. From the year 1960 to 1990s, the small two-stroke motorbikes were very popular in the world. Today, the Japanese are manufacturing the Suzuki, Honda, Kawasaki and Yamaha through the whole world market. The small capacity scooter is very popular in the world.







Motorcycle history begins in the second half of the 19th century. Motorcycles are descended from the safety bike a bicycle with front and rear wheels of the same size and a pedal crank mechanism to drive the rear wheel.Despite some early landmarks in its development, motorcycles lack a rigid pedigree that can be traced back to a single idea or machine. Instead, the idea seems to have occurred to numerous engineers and inventors around Europe at around the
same time.

The 1900 Werner Brothers patented motorcycle

  
In the 1860s pierre michaux ,a black smith in parish, founded 'Michaux et Cie' ("Michaux and company"), the first company to construct bicycles with pedals called a velocipede at the time, or "Michauline". The first steam powered motorcycle can be traced to 1867, when Pierre's son Ernest Michaux fitted a small steam engine to one of the 'velocipedes'.
The design went to the USA when Pierre Lallement,, Roxbury, Massachusettsa ,Michaux employee who also claimed to have developed the prototype in 1863, filed for the first bicycle patent with the U.S. patent office in 1866. In 1868 an American, Sylvester Howard Roper of  developed a twin cylinder machine from the French velocipede design, with a charcoal fired boiler between the wheels. (Roper's contribution to motorcycle development ended suddenly when he died demonstrating one of his machines in Cambridge, Massachusetts on June 1st 1896).
Also in 1868, a French engineer
Louis-Guillaume Perreaux patented a similar steam powered single cylinder motorcycle with a petrol burner and twin belt drives, which was possibly invented independently of Roper's. Although the patent is dated 1868, nothing indicates the invention had been operable before 1871.
In 1881,Lucius Copeland of Phoenix, Arizona designed a much smaller steam boiler which could drive the large rear wheel of a 'farthing-penny' "Star" cycle at 12mph. In 1887 Copeland formed the Northrop Manufacturing Co. to priduce the first successful 'Moto-Cycle' (actually a three wheeler).

bike for passion

NEPAL is a country of vivid contrasts, from tropical plains and ice capped mountain peaks, to fertile valleys and rushing streams, colorful festivals and tranquil meditation. A great ride along paved roads, with some optional trekking or white water rafting, plus friendly and happy locals, plenty of shopping and a nice relaxed atmosphere, makes this a great trip.

MOTOR BIKES- The motor bikes provided are Royal Enfield Bullets. The Enfields were originally produced in Britain. After WW2, the factory was transferred to India

, where they are still in production today. An experienced motor bike mechanic will accompany the tour. All fuel, maintenance and repairs are included.

In other pages, you can read and see about my bike travels, meet my bikers friends and learn some technical information, together with other little things of my life as the inner bags, that I realize and consider essential item for every biker-tourist.

There are three major types of motorcycle: street, off-road, and dual purpose. Within these types, there are many different sub-types of motorcycles for many different purposes.
Street bikes include cruiser, sports bike, scooters and mopeds, and many other types. Off-road motorcycles include many types designed for dirt-oriented racing classes such as motor cross and are not street legal in most areas. Dual purpose machines like the dual sports style are made to go off-road but include features to make them legal and comfortable on the street as well.
Each configuration offers either specialize advantage or broad capability, and each design creates a different riding posture.

Motorbikes are the primary form of transportation in Asia.

In numerous cultures, motorcycles are the primary means of motorised transport.

Motorcycles are one of the most affordable forms of motorised transport in many parts of the world and, for most of the world's population, they are also the most common type of motor vehicle. There are around 200 million motorcycles (including mopeds, motor scooters and other powered two and three-wheelers) in use worldwide,or about 33 motorcycles per 1000 people. This compares to around 590 million cars, or about 91 per 1000 people. Most of the motorcycles, 58%, are in the developing countries of Asia—Southern and Eastern Asia, and the Asia Pacific countries, excluding Japan—while 33% of the cars (195 million) are concentrated in the United States and Japan. As of 2002, India with an estimated 37 million motorcycles/mopeds was home to the largest number of motorised two wheelers in the world. China came a close second with 34 million motorcycles/mopeds.
