Until the all-new 2013 Daytona 675 hit the dealerships Triumph is pushing the stocks of the “old” 2012 model, and what better way to do that than with a special deal. Check out the striking new Sulphur Yellow Daytona 675 with a color matching pin striped rims, carbon-fiber mudguards, carbon fiber instrument surrounding and exhaust heat shield. Add to that a billet levers and quickshifter as they come as standard. We’re unsure if the $10,999 base price will change – but if it doesn’t – this has to be your first pick if you’re after the 600cc supersport bike.

It doesn’t sound nice below 7k rpm does it?

Couple of US riders made a name for themselves riding various two wheeled machines on the Hollywood’s famous Mulholland Road – also known as the “Snake”. One of them is Adey from AdeysWorld – and he recently got the present from the Beverly Hills Ducati – a chance to ride a brand new Ducati 1199 Panigale for a few of days. Adey did what he does best – strapped a small factor HD camera on the tank and went on for a ride. How does it feels – check out the video after the jump.

If you want your 2011/12 Speed Triple (R) 1050cc to loose 7kg and gain 4hp than look no further and go buy the latest oval muffler from SC-Project. The Milan factory released this version of low mounting exhaust tip finished in a combination of matt and glossy carbon-fiber weighing in at only 2.4kg (compared to the original 9.6kg). Your Speed Triple will go faster, accelerate harder, sound better, handle better, and with a DB killer it’s road legal as well!

And for the price of 375 euros including VAT – it has to be one of the best bang-for-the-buck aftermarket parts for 1050cc bikes from Hinckley. Awesome!

A textbook example how to build the cool looking custom Honda cafe racer. This one is based on 1975 model and it has all the elements that one decent CB750 needs to have: custom exhaust (4-in-4 straight pipes), Firestone tires, custom seat and the rear end, clip-on handlebars and a ton of other little details. And you can’t get by the old-school paint job. Just perfect!

The Confederate X132 Hellcat is nothing new. The 2,163cc v-twin with 132hp and 150 lbs.ft of torque monster was going on sale for the initial and cool $44,500 dollars, but as the numbers are limited to 162 units only, that price just jumped to $49,500. Another price increase is expected later for another $5,000. So why would you buy this motorcycle? Start with the photo gallery after the jump.

We love the aluminum/carbon-fiber Hellcat. Do you?

Another absolutely stunning motorcycle coming from Lossa Engineering – this time it’s the 2012 Kawasaki Z1000 naked custom! Built for Eric Bostrom, while paying a tribute to recently passed Gary Nixon, the brief was fairly simple – to make the new bike look like the old school Kawasaki race bike. Jay Loosa offered his services for free (as he saw the potential of the project) building a one-off gas tank and custom billet wheels that mimicker the vintage Kawi mags…

The new subframe was build from scratch and so was the fiberglass ducktail solo seat. The original handlebar was changed for clip-ons, while the exhaust is the craziest looking custom Leo Vince we ever saw – with triple carbon fiber mufflers! The whole bike is a unique piece of art – and it makes us want to build one for ourselves. Awesome!

Lossa Engineering Specs:

one off hand crafted steel gas tank
fiberglass ducktail style solo section from Glass From the Past
Highly modified vintage fiberglass front fender
One off billet wheels to look like vintage Kawi Mags

What an amazing bike…

…coming from a very serious custom builder – the Garage Company. A totally different approach to the subject of cafe racers and the legendary Honda CB750, yet the end result is still somewhere there, amongst the coolest custom CB’s in the world. The bike is sinister and low, the rear end is as minimal as it could be while the rear suspension is a “spring work of art”. It looks stretched although it isn’t, the exhaust is simple, agressive and effective while most of the parts were polished to the mirror finish.

It looks for show but it isn’t as it begs to be riden far and hard – just what a real bike should be. 10/10

Is this the hottest looking Triumph Scrambler you ever saw?

WOW…we are speechless! Just take a look at that beauty. Starting off as the basic Triumph Scrambler, the “Rumbler” received a special made up-side-down fork, a selection of parts from the JvB (engine), Magura Supermoto 4-piston radial front brake, Öhlins rear shocks and lightweight aluminum wheels shod in Pirelli knobby tires (110/80-19 and 140/80-18).

As the translation is a poor one – we believe that this people participated in the project: Jens Brauck (JvB), Uli Brée Triumph Tridays, Peter Wim / Ohlins, Jochen Schmitz (LSL). Sorry if we missed someone :)
