King of the Cars - ROLLS ROYCE

ROLLS-ROYCE:

         Rolls-Royce Limited is a renowned English car-manufacturing company and later, aero-engine manufacturing company founded by Charles Stewart Rolls and Sir Frederick Henry Royce on 15 March 1906 as the result of a partnership formed in 1904.


         The ensuing series of two, three, four and six cylinder cars broke the mould for engineering and craftsmanship. The Silver Ghost, launched in 1907, was a car of legendary smoothness that completed a 14,371 mile virtually non-stop run, creating 'the best car in the world' legend. There classification is done under three families. They are as follows.

  • Phantom Family
  • Ghost Family
  • Wraith Family
                                 



PHANTOM FAMILY:

       Phantom embodies a timeless elegance.Combining state-of-the-art technology and engineering with timeless contemporary design, the latest expression of Phantom is, once again, redefining the luxury car market.




      In a rapidly changing world the power of technology to drive progress is,it believe, essential in creating the best. Embracing technology and blending it with the traditional skills of master craftsmen allows it to produce timeless motor cars that are perfectly in tune with their times.Each member of the family displays a unique personality of its own but all continue to share the powerful presence for which Phantom is renowned.



The Phantom Family. A New World.


GHOST FAMILY:




          As a design statement Ghost Series II continues to transcend time.Introducing Ghost Series II. The ultimate expression of modern dynamism and luxury.Dramatic yet graceful. Effortlessly simple with cutting-edge technology. The latest Ghost and Ghost Extended Wheelbase forge a silent path of serenity through an ever-changing world with no ordinary power.




WRAITH FAMILY:

        There’s a sense of effortless grace and elegance, but at the same time something more contemporary and daring.The most potent and technologically advanced Rolls-Royce in history, Wraith is a car for the curious, the confident and the bold.




        From the very outset the words of the company co-founder Sir Henry Royce had informed everything that their designers, engineers and craftspeople had set out to achieve:'Take the best that exists and make it better: when it does not exist, design it.So we have created a car that pushes the boundaries of design and engineering. With the power, style and drama to make the world stand still.

The Fastest Bike-Suzuki Hayabusa


THE SUZUKI HAYABUSA:

             The Suzuki Hayabusa (or GSX1300R) is a sport bike motorcycle made by Suzuki since 1999. Hayabusa is Japanese for "peregrine falcon", a bird that often serves as a metaphor for speed due to its vertical hunting dive, or stoop, speed of 180 to 202 miles per hour (290 to 325 km/h), the fastest of any bird.In particular, the choice of name was made because the peregrine falcon preys on blackbirds,which reflected the intent of the original Hayabusa to unseat the Honda CBR1100XX Super Blackbird as the world's fastest production motorcycle.
             Eventually, the Hayabusa managed to surpass the Super Blackbird by at least a full 10 miles per hour (16 km/h).It immediately won acclaim as the world's fastest production motorcycle, with a top speed of 188 to 194 miles per hour (303 to 312 km/h).


OVERVIEW:

             More than a decade ago, Suzuki developed a machine so unique that it instantly attracted a devoted following around the world. Like its namesake, the Japanese peregrine falcon, Hayabusa is famed for cutting through the air with incredible agility and performance.
             It combines massive thrust, unmatched maneuverability, and a silky smooth ride on city streets or the open road. Beneath its windswept design beats the legendary Suzuki Hayabusa engine. The resonating feel of pure power evokes an attitude of bold authority from both machine and rider.


            Through countless engineering refinements of the original design, the Hayabusa spirit has endured. Its incomparable performance delivers a fun and sporty ride at any speed, setting the bar high for rivals and defining the "Ultimate Sport Bike." The radically original yet timeless styling also reflects the spirit of the person who owns a Hayabusa.
            At the turn of the 20th century Suzuki surprised the world by introducing the Hayabusa. Over the last decade, the motorcycle has evolved while staying true to its concept-the pinnacle of high-performance motorcycles. Its sensational power, speed, smooth ride and overwhelming presence continue to fascinate owners and onlookers alike.


           The addition of a new ABS and Brembo Monobloc front brake calipers takes the Hayabusa and rider to new heights. We invite you to become an owner of the Hayabusa key, and feel the beat of Hayabusa as you fly through the streets. Join us and become a proud owner. May your heart beat in unison to the Hayabusa. Because the Hayabusa is, and always will be, the ultimate sport bike.

FEATURES:

Selectable engine mapping – Suzuki Drive Mode Selector: 

       The Hayabusa features the unique Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (S-DMS) system, which allows the rider to select one of three engine control maps. The system allows the rider to select a different map to suit personal preferences in various riding conditions, such as choosing one map for highway cruising and another map for tighter roads.

Forged pistons and PVD-coated rings: 

        Forged three-ring aluminum-alloy slipper pistons provide superior strength. The oil control ring on each piston is electro-plated with a chrome-nitride coating applied in a vacuum chamber using a Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) system.The chrome nitride PVD coating is harder and smoother than conventional chrome plating, reducing friction while improving cylinder sealing. The upper piston ring also features an L-shaped cross section, with combustion pressure pushing the ring tighter against the cylinder wall to further reduce blow by and increase the force actually pushing the piston down.


Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve: 

         The Hayabusa engine is fitted with tapered, 44 mm double-barrel Suzuki Dual Throttle Valve (SDTV) throttle bodies.Unlike conventional fuel-injection systems, the SDTV system has two butterfly valves in each throttle body barrel. The rider controls the primary valve via a throttle grip, and the engine management system automatically controls the secondary valve, opening it incrementally to maintain optimum intake charge velocity based on engine rpm, gear position and primary valve opening.This precise, carefully controlled system improves combustion efficiency and makes throttle response feel more natural to the rider.


Brembo Monobloc front brake calipers: 

        Lighter and more rigid than conventional bolt-together calipers, the Hayabusa's top-of-the-line radial-mount Brembo Monobloc front brake calipers deliver better feedback to the rider. The piston diameters were enlarged from 32-30 mm to 32-32 mm.Larger pistons help apply greater force to the brake disc, which results in increased initial bite and a more controlled feeling.
                           

Colors:

       It is available in three colors: Pearl Vigor Blue / Pearl Glacier White (AJP), Metallic Thunder Gray / Grass Sparkle Black (AA 3), Pearl Mira Red / Pearl Glacier White (AGS).


Lightweight, high-performance ABS: 

        A new, standard equipment Anti lock Brake System (ABS) unit features a lightweight, compact design. The ABS enhances brake performance by helping prevent, to a certain extent, wheel locking due to changes in road conditions or excessive braking, by matching stopping power to available traction. 
Note: The ABS is a supplemental device for brake operation, not a device for shortening stopping distance. Always remember to reduce speed sufficiently before approaching curves.


Inverted cartridge front forks: 

       KYB inverted cartridge forks feature a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC)coating surface treatment on the 43 mm stanchion tubes to reduce friction and increase reaction to small surface irregularities. The forks provide front wheel travel of 120 mm. Spring preload, compression damping and rebound damping are fully adjustable.
