This new generation of Ford Escape comes with four changes. It is brand new Ford Escape and although it is also sold under the second name on European market, has nothing to do with the current. Ford has risked little in the design, it is clear, but the high success of the compact SUV invites not out of the pot and attracts the enthusiast. New Escape, finally with the Kinetic Design on your waistline, boasting a much more gotten in previous installments, though I personally am not convinced the front bumper too, charging over the front.

The other view, either side or rear, has more similarities with the Ford Escape European version, which offer that with the U.S. but it seems that the firm commitment to globalize the design and modify only small details. Inside New Escape, the formula is repeated in view Kuga first taking the dashboard of the C-Max. This time course is taken of the current generation Ford Escape with a fresh, young design, although they may not like it as much conservators.

New Ford Escape to be presented at the Geneva Motor Show, will equip diesel engines, which in the United States are not presently contemplated, offering 168 hp 2.5i as a basic option, and two blocks Ecoboost family with 173 and 237 horses (the first is a 1.6 liter and the second a 2.0i, although in both cases with supercharging and direct injection). Love so much New Ford Escape.

The manufacturer Harley-Davidson Inc. has recall nearly 308,000 of its motorcycles, mostly in the United States to correct a problem that can cause switch failures and even brake lights in the rear brakes.

The company said in documents filed last week to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Highway Traffic switches to the brake lights may be exposed to too much heat from the exhaust system, which could cause failure of the lights. The problem, said the document also can cause fluid leakage and loss of the rear brakes.

The problem affects Touring motorcycles, CVO Touring and Trike, models 2009 to 2012. The vehicles were manufactured between June 6, 2008 and September 16, 2011.

Harley-Davidson Inc. said it will notify owners of motorcycles on the withdrawal of the units. Dealers will install a switch for the rear brake light for free. The recall affects about 251,000 motorcycles in the U.S. only, and the rest elsewhere.

Harley-Davidson Inc. said they detected the problem in June 2010 to obtain a report on a motorcycle trike model (pictured) that lost the rear brakes due to the failure. The company began to research, and in July 2011 sent investigators to a dealership in Louisiana to review other motorcycle that was involved in an automobile accident.

2012 BMW S1000RR has passed through the table designer to polish a bunch of details. These details may seem of little importance as refining the fairing and the tail, but no doubt that this new sport bike is better than the last version of BMW S1000RR.

2012 BMW S1000RR engine

In the engine BMW S1000RR is minimal retouching, but well studied to obtain extract all the power that lies at the four-cylinder of 999 cc. But contrary to what might appear on the mechanical side has not played a lot, which has done is to tweak all the electronics used to tame the beast.

. Mechanically only has the relationship goes from high school 17:44 to 17:45 with what has been shortened a bit for the final development that the bike has more acceleration and lightning retrievals.

. The new unit now allows us to select the Rain (Rain) in which the motor is limited to 163 hp, which is 11 hp more than the previous version.

Meanwhile BMW S1000RR available in three options, Sport, Race or Slick, give the 193 hp engine that is capable of reaching 13,000 rpm. To this we must add a new shortest path fist and butterfly springs shorter transmitting better feel to the pilot. Thanks to this electronic retouching say the engine responds best between 5,500 and 7,500 rpm while torque is increased beyond 9,000 rpm.

. Finally, in the electronics of 2012 BMW S1000RR have been tweaked engine combustion mode Slick deductions for the behavior of the BMW S1000RR is more neutral and manageable.

The leak has been re-placed the catalyst, which happens to be located in the primary tubes to be integrated into the primary noise. But if you want to spend your BMW S1000RR to the competition will also offer a version of HP made of titanium exhaust and no approval for driving on the street.

. But a modern bike does not live by power curves, but it also needs ABS, Traction Control and Anti Horses. All have been revised to improve them, but I’m sure these improvements will be difficult to appreciate for a pilot “normal” so we must rely on the work of engineers .- The improved chassis, but fair.

If you say that the chassis BMW S1000RR has been improved in the front increasing its rigidity once they have expanded the inlet by 20% the steering angle of 66.1 ° passes to 66 º, the wheelbase is reduced in 9.3 mm 1422.7 mm being now. In shocks, both front and rear has been reduced internal friction and has worked on the valves internal.  Rear shock BMW S1000RR now has a stem diameter of 18 mm instead of 14 mm and the steering damper has 10 positions of regulation. The rear swingarm has been re-located 4 mm higher than the previous version and is now receiving treatment KTL (not what the hell is) instead of oyster gray paint from the previous version.

2012 BMW S1000RR Electronics

We have already spoken of the new management of engine power BMW S1000RR, improved version of ABS, Traction Control System and Anti Horses, but we still have to mention that the BMW S1000RR includes a gadget for those who use the bike on the track. Laptimer is so-called, which controls our time every 100 meters of the track and in the case we are improving in that area while we indicated by an indicator called “Best Lap in progress”

. Along with this there Speedwarning system, this tells us if they exceed the previously set speed. Finally, users in mind circuit has also been thought that the witness may be disconnected failure warning lights that lit up when removing the license plate holder and turn signals.

2012 BMW S1000RR aerodynamics

Of everything that stands out is the design of the pollack slimmer and new side screens on the center cap of the airbox. Also been moderately tweaked the right side gills and the air intake on the left. To this we must add some new winglets that improve the aerodynamics of the bike and reduce the air pressure on the hands and arms of the pilot .- The owner of one of these new BMW S1000RR will choose it in four color variations, although the remains the most sporting red racing / White. There is also a blue version and a color BlueFire black sapphire.

Finally, it has been retouched to the RR logo to make it clear that we are facing a new version of the superbike alemana.Con this we face a new bike that apparently is the same as the previous version, but all in the details the development of two years participating in the World Superbike applied to a motorcycle that can travel down the street without having to leave much of your organs at the dealership to pay BMW S1000RR.
