Bike: Triple Cylinder Bike Engine

The perfect middle ground between torque twins and revvy inline fours, the triple cylinder engine is not traditionally one of the most popular engine architectures a but those who ride them swear by them. Triples are a mainstay of Triump has model lineup, powering all of their sport motorcycles, and are gaining in popularity in models such as the new Yamaha FZ-09.

While triples typically boast the same high horsepower numbers of inline fours or the grunt torque of big twins, they are a great balance of both, making them perfect for everything from commuting around town to aggressive track riding.

Yamaha FZ-09.

The FZ-09 was one of my favorite new motorcycles of 2014, but its abrupt throttle response especially in its top A ride mode spoiled what had the potential to be a stellar and desirable new Triple. It was plainly unrefined for something from a Japanese OEM. The new mapping dramatically attenuates the FZ’s rough edges when applying throttle. Yamaha remapped the bike’s ECU and removed nearly all of its jerky on/off throttle response, though what exactly it did Yamaha says is proprietary information. The new bike responds to initial throttle much more smoothly in Standard mode.

Specification :

MV Agusta F3.

The style and design of MV Agusta F3 instantly holds your attention and forces you to gaze it. The diamond shaped headlight at its front gives it a unique identity and looks extremely catchy when seen from a distance. The aerodynamic design of its front fairing and V-shaped visor also looks catchy and appealing. The cowl sports noticeable lines on it which complements the black colored rear view mirrors which comes with integrated LED indicators. These mirrors are mounted on this big V-shaped front fairing. The short front fender sits just below the headlight of this bike and gels well with the forks at its front. The bike has an up-swept, integrated side and rear cowl which also looks aerodynamic with split seat on it.
