Yamaha BT1100 Bulldog review




New Yamaha BT1100 Bulldog the machine with the 2-cylinder V-shaped engine, intended for travel and daily driving. Even on the lowest revolutions the motorcycle develops significant draft, and the box of transfers together with a drive of a wheel promotes optimum realization of potential of the engine. Yamaha has turned the person to fans of a prosaic life. Pay attention: the motor and transmission with minor alterations have borrowed from cruiser Yamaha XVS1100 Drag Star. He not powerful (65hp), but possesses the solid twisting moment of 88,2 Nm @4500rpm.

With such characteristic only and to defile in fuses, not caring of switching transfers, and stately to leave from a traffic light. Due to that all sites are concentrated around and under the motor, the centre of gravity at Bulldog very low that promotes controllability and stability - one more bait for unsophisticated in management. According to designers, at designing the 2-cylinder V-twin the most necessary elements were used only. Therefore we have air cooling, one camshaft and two valves on the cylinder. Modern electronic control systems any to you and catalysts. But Bulldog does not pollute an environment - in an aluminium pendulum it is made the shaft which is not demanding special maintenance service. The machine it is far up to Buell Lightning - her nearest contender. Many considered, that Japanese have copied American - have not met yet with Bulldog 1100 closer. Image Yamaha Bulldog BT1100 on - is accurate and in an European way is silent. Landing a straight line, a pillow of a saddle elastic and wide, a rudder too wide and classically convenient. All as on Yamaha TDM850. The V-twin completely exhausts the opportunities, the pointer of a tachometer in convulsions is beaten at a red zone - everything, at Bulldog language on a shoulder. Confident dispersal up to hundred and draft up to 130 km/h to you is provided. More specs and user manual of Yamaha BT 1100 you can see in nextoverview.
