Which one can be included to good motorsport for Open Class of MotoGP?

Tokyo , - Which one can be included to good motorsport for Open Class of MotoGP? and probably, this Honda RCV 1000R can be recommended.

Finally , Honda will improve the performance catapult indication RCV1000R " production racer " that is currently used open class MotoGP team . However, according to a report GPOne.com , repairs for season 2015. Fastest 2016 season .

RCV1000R performance was disappointing teams and riders who use them . At a cost of 1 million euros ( USD 15.8 billion ) for use during the racing season , rather than chasing the podium , moving from the middle of the board alone is difficult .

In early development , Honda Racing Corporation claimed the difference was just 0.3 seconds compared to the engine manufacturer team , RCV213V . In fact , in five races this season already underway , the average RCV1000R best record with a time of 0.73 seconds adrift RC213V worst !

The biggest complaint is the lack of qualified personnel . When compared with a Yamaha engine in the open class that is currently used NGM Forward team , losing much performance . Problem is , Honda is up with Yamaha in the open class are already using machines M1 .

That's why HRC will develop the engine for the open class of RCV213V , complete with pneumatic valves , but without the seamless gearbox .

pneumatic valve
Although later RCV1000R will not get the seamless gearbox , pneumatic valves least will remove the weaknesses . All riders complained about the slow acceleration , far behind the RCV213V owned manufacturer and satellite teams .

The valve will be a promising profile as a more aggressive camshaft and valve openings better . It greatly helps to increase power and torque in the middle rounds . Valve also makes the machine can be lauched at higher rpm , the tip produces more power .

Perhaps , this plan will provide fresh air and an additional motivation for the riders who currently use RCV1000R , such as Nicky Hayden , Hiroshi Aoyama , Scott Redding , and Karel Abraham to wade through the rest of the 2014 season .

GPOne.com also reported, a new version of this engine will be tested RCV1000R end of this season , most likely from the series that takes place in Motegi , Japan . Motorcycle riders will be given to users RCV1000R with the acquisition of the highest points position . Input from Honda rider will help to develop again for season 2015.

How to control brake in safe and right ways?

This is good suggestion for you about How to control brake in safe and right ways. You should observe below tips more to make you safe on the road.

Not everyone is adept at controlling the motorcycle . But more important is actually not a matter of maneuver , but rather simple things like braking techniques . Many of the original brakes to reduce speed or stop , when to brake safely no theory .

the brakes are actually really effective is to use simultaneously between the front and rear brakes , instead of optimizing one .

" We're not talking percentages strength , for example front and rear brakes need a total amount of 100 percent . Because it is ambiguous . More effective way to stop or slow  the rate is to use the front brake , ".

Here are the details for all the tips from Emerson  biker in order to master  the correct braking technique :
1 . Seen type motorcycle , according to Emerson's almost as if talking braking . Indeed , for a sport bike will be more complex , because after the brakes have to be coupled with a move to a lower gear ( engine braking ) if you want more effectively . It is also similar to motorcycle , but because the weight is not as heavy as the type cub sport , engine braking is done if urgent .

2 . Learning first ! When learning to ride a two-wheeled vehicles such as bicycles , has been imprinted in the mind in order to use the rear brake first . Well , for the motorcycle can not be fully applied . " Many assuming biker rear wheel brakes more effective , this thinking has to be changed , " said Emerson .

3 . Emphasis or force the brakes , which could determine the biker himself . It is seen from the speed and road conditions . For example, on a wet road , it would be nice if the brakes are not too pressed . That is why , if on wet or slippery roads , shall reduce the speed so if at any time it took the brakes , hard pressed not because the rate is too fast motorcycle .

The use of fingers to pull the brake lever to adjust the strength needed . For maximally braking , can use four fingers like squeezing motion . " Keep in mind , the brakes do not stand alone . Think safety when slippery roads with reduced speed . The use of front and rear brakes fixed , not one , " .

4 . Use of the rear brake alone is only recommended for certain conditions . For example, passing an instance with a low speed . Rear brake alone will make the motorcycle unstable .

5 . Cornering . In theory , only the brake is used to slow down before the corner entry speed . Once they entered the bend , it did accelerate in order to better grip the front wheels . Many are wrong , even when in a corner braking. Emerson is said to be very dangerous , especially in high speed .

6 . Generally need to practice using the brakes repan . It is necessary to anticipate when braking suddenly . Do not be afraid to use the front brake , if it's  done correctly .
