Let us guide you on a two-day scamper through northeast Georgia, western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee which will mix pavement and unpavement in a way that entwines well-maintained gravel roads with deliciously twisty back roads. While we might explore a scenic dead-end or two just for the fun of riding beside a trout stream, the objective will be to show riders new to this genre how to string together gravel roads which actually go somewhere.
Rider-to-instructor ratios will not exceed three-to-one. Motorcycles must be in excellent mechanical condition with good tires and suspension capable of riding on rutted, gravel roads. A motorcycle operator license is required. Passengers are welcome for an additional fee.



Introduction
The origin of This model is the BMW(1938--1941), which was used in the battle field during the second World War. While those motorcycles rode by the German
soilders as BMW R71 and BMW R75 belonged to the past, quite differ from today's Motorcycle.

Then what the process from R71 to present day motorcycle like? In 1939, the former 
USSR leader Mr. Stalin expanded the country's military forces, he imported 5 BMW from Germany, disassembled them, drew pictures, in this way, Russians produced the M-72 motorbike.

In the 1950s, our military copied M-72 and made this type 750cc Motorcycle, it was the original shape of Chinese motorcycle. It has been used in the military and military communications ever since.


Imitating German military motorcycle with simple and elegant style in the second world war, and assimilating the soul of modern technology as well, it has excellent performance and comfort for ride.

Bike maintenance



Intoduction
Motorcycle maintenance is more than doing maintenance on your motorcycle because you have to do it now or it is time to do it right away. On going general maintenance will keep your motorcycle in great condition with little or no unpleasant surprises on the road.

General Motorcycle Maintenance
Motorcycle Maintenance
Modern bikes require less maintenance than they did in the 60's and 70's but they still need a lot more maintenance than a car. This higher reliability also means that there are a whole bunch of motorcyclists out there who haven't a clue how to work on their bikes or what really needs to be done to ensure reliability.
Motorcyclists should be able to do at least basic maintenance on their bikes.
The more care and maintenance you give a bike the longer it will last. Preforming general maintenance on your motorcycle will also help you spot problems before they happen. 

Check Regularly
Tip: There are dozens of parts on a motorcycle that could be checked on a regular basis and there is nothing wrong with check all those parts. But try to slim the list down to the most important items so you still have time to ride.
Here is a basic list of some of the most important things to check on a motorcycle. Even doing a little can make a big difference. Battery, Oil, Tires (tires), Brakes, Chain and sprocket (Shaft Drive, Belt Drive) and Fuel (Gas, Petrol).

 Brakes
Motorcycles have two brake fluid reservoirs, one for the front, usually found on the handlebars and one for the back, usually tucked away somewhere under the saddle. Both should be checked regularly. Topping up should only be done from a new, sealed bottle as brake fluid tends to absorb moisture over time. If your brake pads are thin and due for replacement, do not top up the reservoir - replace the pads first and the level in the reservoir will rise automatically (a dark art at work here!)
Beware - brake fluid, if spilt on paintwork eats right through to the bare metal.
Also check the thickness of the brake pads. If you allow them to go right down to the metal your brake disc will be damaged resulting in an unnecessary and expensive replacement. Fitting braided steel brake lines will increase the performance of your brakes by roughly 50%
Here the thickness of the brake pad can be seen. It clearly has a lot of mileage to offer before needing to be replaced. If your bike is used off road or is exposed to corrosive forces ensure that the pistons that force the pads onto the disk are cleaned and serviced once a year.

These are three items that are essential to the well being of your bike. If not well maintained you will end up forking out a lot of money all too often to have them replaced.
Lubricate them often with a commercial chain spray (every five running hours/once month/every 300km). Spray liberally on the side of the chain that comes into contact with the sprockets. Ensure that you spray both left and the right hand side of the chain. Position a piece of newspaper so that you do not dirty the rear wheel rim as you spray. Use a second piece on the floor to catch any drips. Wait five or ten minutes before you wipe all excess oil off the chain. (This whole process is a lot easier if your motorbike has a centre stand) I find that an old sock slipped over my hand works the best. If your chain has been recently lubricated you only have to spray small sections. Spinning the back tyre will ensure that the rest of the chain is lubricated when it comes into contact with the sprocket and pinion. This is a task that is best done when you return home from your ride while the chain is still warm.
Bike chains are never taut but must be able to sag between 20mm and 40mm at the mid-point between the two sprockets. The sag is used when the bike suspension moves up and down over uneven surfaces.
If your chain is not an endless loop it will use a master link to join the two ends together. Check the condition of this link on a regular basis. Unfortunately replacing it usually requires a special tool to force it to separate.
The closed end of the master link must precede the open end on its way around (see arrow)
Cleaning. If your chain becomes very dirty e.g. after a long ride on a dirt road, leave it overnight. The crud becomes hard and is easily brushed off with a small steel wire brush the next morning. If you do want to clean it with a solvent do not use petrol as this dries out the small rubber O rings in the chain. Use a commercial chain cleaner, kerosene or diesel fuel as these are all oil based.
Chains stretch with time no matter how well they are cared for. You will know when the chain has stretched too much when you are able to pull the chain off the back of the rear sprocket. See diagram below
 
chain2.gif (38219 bytes)
When you try this when the chain is new, it will not budge from the sprocket but when it has become stretched, it moves off easily.                           

Know where your fuses are. Most bikes have a set of spare fuses next to the ones being used. One fine day your bike may not start or the lights and hooter (horn) may not work and you will be required to replace the defective one.
In this picture spare fuses are stored around the ones in use above.  In reality this is too few. Should your bike develop a short you will probably burn at least five fuses before you find the problem.
Do not be fooled by a fuse that looks good. Swap it around with a spare before you take for granted that the fuse is good.
Wiring
It is a fact that the electrical systems on motorcycles are more prone to giving problems than any other single sub system. Therefore make it a routine when giving your bike a through cleaning to check for loose and frayed wires that can cause intermittent problems or short circuits.

Sending motorbike for service/repair 
Suggestion is to take off all the non essential fairings/plastics and then ride your motorbike in naked - the BIKE, not the rider! This allows you to inspect it thoroughly yourself before you hand it over and no, you do not have to be a mechanic to do this. Look for cracked rubber hoses, rubber hoses that have become hard and brittle, loose bits, missing bolts, loose spokes, loose and chaffed electrical wires,  soiled areas as a result of a leak, battery water levels, battery acid corrosion around the battery area, kinks in your chain, worn chain master link, thin brake pads and all other fluid levels. Then you can specify your concerns on paper when you check it in. When you collect your bike you can then see the work for yourself as 'the lack of work' cannot be hidden behind the plastics.
Removing all the plastics as in this photo above is not difficult and reveals the true condition of a lot of parts that can give trouble on the road

Good Condition Tips
Keeping your bike standard maintains it value. Fitting expensive aftermarket bits and bobs does not increase your bikes value - it can even reduce it
Fit a tank protector to protect your tank from your jacket and zips
Keep your air filter clean and this saves on fuel
Fit crash bungs and engine protector guards to protect your bike should you drop it
Protect your motorcycle's top yoke (the area around the ignition). Do this by fitting a yoke protector or do not have dozens of keys that will scratch the yoke.
Rear hugger mudguards and front mudguard extensions will protect your bike from flying crud.
Protect exposed metal work from corrosion. There are many protective products available.
Use a bike cover even if you store it in a closed garage.

Bike and Bike

A motorcycle (also called a Motor Bike, bike, or cycle) is a single-track, engine-powered, two-wheeled motor vehicle. Motorcycles vary considerably depending on the task for which they are designed, such as long distance travel, navigating congested urban traffic, cruising, sport and racing, or off-road conditions.
Motorcycle 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 are in the developing countries of Asia Southern and Eastern Asia, and the Asia Pacific countries, excluding Japan while of the cars are concentrated in the United States and Japan. 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.

motorbikes is need for all purpose

 INTRODUCTION


Motor vehicle ownership plays a vital role in determining travel behavior. Availability of a
vehicle in one household encourages its utilization, and, the more cars in a household fleet,
the more car travel in total occurs. On one hand, transportation practitioners are interested to
know how many and what type of vehicles are being owned by households and how people
adjust and utilize their vehicles. On the other hand, the government sees demand for
transportation outpacing efficiencies so they support the promotion of new technologies (e.g.
fuel cells) and is interested to start a “shift of consumer behavior”. Understanding the
behavioral responses of consumers to the actions of business and government is of interest to a
wide spectrum of society. Therefore, there have been many studies on car or automobile
ownership and usage at the household level. Unfortunately, very few researchers have carried
out studies on motorcycle ownership behavior at the household level. Perhaps motorcycle has
been considered as a “temporary” transport mode over the world.

Asian cities such as in China, Thailand, Malaysia, Taiwan,Vietnam,and Nepal
motorcycles play an important role in the daily travel pattern of the people. The significant
role of motorcycles has been still remained in the urban transport systems even for decades in
the future. Therefore, there is a great need to study the motorcycle ownership behavior in
order to help policy makers propose effective policies to deal with the problems involving
motorcycle.

A few studies have been carried out in non-discrete frameworks. Gilbert developed a hazard duration model to estimate the distribution of auto ownership lengths and the effects of auto and socioeconomic characteristics on the length. Yama moto developed a competing risks duration model of household vehicle transactions. Although suchkinds of models are powerful in explaining ownership choice behavior, extreme difficulties have been encountered in the collection of very detailed data over a specific time interval,
thus, making them unpopular models.Therefore, the discrete choice method using.

A decision to buy a motorcycle is one of the most important decisions made by a household.
MCO represents a dramatic increase in mobility and access to employment. The way
households make decisions with respect to vehicle ownership has been the subject of numerous
studies across many disciplines.

In reality, the transaction choice set consists of “add”, “replace”, “dispose”, and “do-nothing”
options. However, as seen in Table 1, more than 80% of the transactions observed are purchases.
To simplify the transaction model, it is assumed that a household annually considers whether
to add a motorcycle to the current fleet or not. Therefore, there are two alternatives in the
choice-set, “add a motorcycle” or “not add motorcycle”
