We can give your BMW engine more power with BMW performance air intake

You can give your BMW engine more power if you give it more what it needs.

The engine of your BMW is eager to unleash its full power, but it can only do so if you give it enough room to breath.

In other simple English words, your BMW engine needs air, as highly compressed, as steady rate as possible. That way all the cylinders will be evenly filled, and so your BMW engine will be able to produce more power and more torque.

The BMW performance air intake system ensures that every engine is always provided with the optimum of air. Special air pipes, performance air filters make possible high throughput and minimize pressure lass. This creates a throaty intake note, which can be enjoyed inside the cockpit, enriching the sports car experience of driving your BMW.

The sound of the engine will be magnificent and the power will be unresistant. Your BMW can take off at any moment. Which moment? You can control it with your right leg…

The section of the air intake cover is made of high tech carbon, and carries the BMW Performance lettering.

It hides under the hood, but the message it sends out could not be cleaner.

Nothing is more challenging than delivering breathtaking performance. It required strength, innovative thinking and the courage to rewrite rules.

Something that is only possible when driven by true dedication. Dedication that never cases more forward, direct, focused uncompromising.

The greater the the power under your right leg, the greater the importance of control. It is not just how fast your BMW can go from 0 to 100 km/hour that matters, but also how fast it can go from 100 km or from higher to speed to 0.

The system makes an equally dramatic visual impact too. The front brake calipers future BMW Performance lettering painted in BMW Performance Yellow.

BMW Welt’s indoor motocross show

Taking delivery of a new BMW is a proud moment of every BMW owner. Make it even more unforgettable by visiting and pick up the new vehicle in the state of the art BMW Welt’s delivery center in Munich.

There are many other things to see there as I alredy talked about in one of my previous post. One of the thing what I did not mentioned is, the in house motocross show…

If you are lucky enough, you might see the Bavarian Chris Pfeiffer in-door performance. If you are not that lucky, you will see his team show. He is there or he isn’t the show still going on.

He jumps backwards over the handlebars, lands on the tank, reaches for the throttle and revs up. The clutch clicks and the front wheel climbs into the air, and he drives off, casually perched on the tank, legs dangling off the side. Bavarian Chris Pfeiffer is good at what he does. What he does is stunt riding, and Pfeiffer is a four-time world champion in the sport – he is the best there is.

His stunt partner since 2006 has been a BMW F 800. The bike has helped him bag four world championship titles. “Just six years ago I couldn’t have imagined riding for BMW,” he confesses. Back then BMW motorbikes did not have the same dynamic image enjoyed by the cars; they were seen rather as models for older people, designed for tranquil road travel rather than for the young, daring, and active. “Then one day BMW showed me the F 800 and I immediately realized what huge potential the bike had.”

My visit to BMW Welt, BMW World to Munich, Germany

______________________________________________________________________

Ever since, Chris Pfeiffer has been a brand ambassador for BMW. He embodies better than anyone else the complete image transformation BMW Motorrad has undergone. Pfeiffer is a family man with a degree in Biology and Sport, but he can also boast four victories in the world’s toughest enduro race, the Hare Scramble on Austria’s Erzberg – and of course his skills as a motorbike acrobat are unsurpassed.

Fans around the world, especially in the USA, the birthplace and main showplace of this spectacular sport, flock to see “the crazy German” perform his breathtaking, seemingly impossible stunts -weekend bikers are generally dumbstruck the first time they see him in action.

From A to B, however, Pfeiffer drives a BMW HP2 Megamoto, a high-performance model with a 1200 cc Boxer engine. He is equally impressed by the dynamics of the new BMW S 1000 RR pure-sport superbike that’s currently causing a global stir. “This machine is the very essence of the brand makeover,” says Pfeiffer. “It makes it clear to everyone that BMW Motorrad are serious about sport.” Pfeiffer knows he is a key part of this transformation, and knows being part of the “drive for dynamism” has its advantages, especially when he gets to mount his S1000 RR and just enjoy the acceleration, the thrill of high speeds, the precision and control, and above all the brakes.

“Hard braking is just insane.” Much has changed since the millennium. “When I told my friends and colleagues that I had decided to ride a BMW they thought I was taking early retirement.” Until they saw the BMW F 800. “This bike helped me to really develop as a driver.”

Before switching to BMW, his mount of choice was a Ducati Monster, which drove him to a world champion title.

By the way I love my Ducati Monster, but my next bike will be a BMW for sure. Which model? That is not sure yet..

Yokohama’s New Orange Oil Tire the AVID Ascend

Orange Oil, Yokohama’s New Recipe for its AVID Ascend Tires

Today everyone want as much quality and durability from their purchased new tire as possible. And that’s something Yokohama has always understood extremely well. As a result, the tire maker has never stopped looking for some of the newest and probably most original technologies to reach its goal, providing longer lasting and high quality tires. Its latest discovery? Orange oil!

Yokohama’s latest product, the AVID Ascend, a tire aimed at one of the most demanding tire segments, the premium touring market and this tire is one of the few that respect their environment.

And that is exactly what the new AVID Ascend is designed for. Indeed, by choosing orange oil, Yokohama engineers have not only contributed to reducing the use of petroleum-based oils in the production of tires, but this natural oil from orange peels infused with the natural and synthetic rubber of the tread compound has resulted in improved tread life and reduced rolling resistance.

Together, this tire helps both increase economic value by offering better fuel economy, but it also contributes to the protection of the environment!

The use of orange oil allows for less petroleum in the manufacturing process, a process that was first utilized in Yokohama’s groundbreaking dB Super tire.

However orange oil alone does not make wonder and this tire make your driving experience wonderful. Because Yokohama’s engineers have included an interlocking tapered center rib design that will give the tire better on-center feel and stability.

The cross-supporting shoulder blocks are there to enhance handling while the cross and circumferential grooves help to get maximum traction in wet weather performance.

Finally, the 3D sipes improve wear resistance.
