5 Modern Features You Should Have For a Performance Motorcycle

5 Modern Features You Should Have For a Performance Motorcycle
Riding a motorcycle on a long stretch of highway is always enjoyable. This experience is further enhanced if you do it on a high-end performance motorcycle. As the name suggests, performance motorcycles are noted for their longevity, performance, and comfort. The growing demand for such bikes has compelled two-wheeler manufacturers to flood the market with their numerous models.

With so many bike models available now, customers are spoilt for choice. However, not every performance bike can provide you the best riding experience. This article will help you decide on your next performance motorcycle by listing the top five features it must have.
 

  1. Modern disc brakes

     
    Spent a hefty sum of money on a high-end performance bike only to discover it is difficult to brake? Well, in that case, your bike lacks modern disc brakes that feature dual-channel ABS. 
     
    When you apply sudden brakes on a standard bike, its brake pads and discs heat up quickly, resulting in poor control. However, the modern braking system keeps the disc ventilated and the temperature stable. It also sends messages to the brake lever to ensure smooth operation. Performance bikes with petal-type discs and radically mounted callipers in their braking system keep unladen mass to a minimum.
     

  2. Automatic Headlamp On

     
    Isn't it fun to ride your bike down a long highway with a cool breeze brushing against your skin? However, whether riding on a highway or within a city, you must always keep in mind the safety features in your bike. One of such vital safety features is ‘automatic headlamp on’ or AHO. Due to this, the bike’s headlight is automatically turned on when it is in ignition mode.
     
    In response to a mandate from the Government of India, bike manufacturers have implemented this feature to reduce the number of road mishaps. The AHO lights are designed in such a way that they have negligible impact on the bike’s battery consumption.

  1. Performance tyres

     
    This is another modern bike feature necessary in your performance bike, whether purchased through own funds or a two-wheeler loan. When you are about to hit the top speed of your bike, your engine outputs maximum power. You cannot expect a smooth ride in such conditions if your tyres are not designed for the peak horsepower.
     
    Performance tyres are built in such a way that materials such as rubber compound and tread provide solid grip even on slippery roads. Simply put, performance tyres are noted for their aesthetic look, high performance, and better grip.
     

  2. Liquid cooling

     
    You may be unaware that the larger the displacement of your engine, the faster it will heat up during a ride. In that case, if your bike lacks features that reduce temperature, you may have chosen the wrong bike.
     
    Bikes with larger cubic capacity use different cooling methods than bikes with lower displacement. In a liquid cooling system, the heat emitted by the engine is absorbed by the liquid that circulates within it constantly. The liquid then flows downward to the radiator to cool it. The process is repeated to keep the temperature stable and prevent damage to components from overheating.
     
    Moreover, in high-performance motorcycles, the engine oil loses viscosity when the temperature crosses a certain point. A similar pattern occurs when the oil passes via an oil cooler. The liquid cooling also keeps the engine properly lubricated.
     

  3. Aerodynamic efficiency

     
    When shopping for a performance motorcycle, make sure it is light in weight. Bikes with pointed designs and light weight can cut winds coming from opposite directions with little resistance. Bikes with efficient aerodynamics allow the engine to deal with its laden weight and body panels tolerance against the coming wind.
     
    Performance bikes are now built in such a way that wind is transferred to the bike's components that require cooling.

To conclude

 
Although the features mentioned in this article will prolong your performance motorcycle’s life, you must also put effort into maintaining it well. You must become a disciplined rider, stick to the user manual, and strictly adhere to traffic rules. If you don't own a performance bike yet but crave the thrill of riding one, check out financing options at affordable bike loan interest rates to finalise your purchase.

Disbursement

The act of paying out money for any kind of transaction is known as disbursement. From a lending perspective this usual implies the transfer of the loan amount to the borrower. It may cover paying to operate a business, dividend payments, cash outflow etc. So if disbursements are more than revenues, then cash flow of an entity is negative, and may indicate possible insolvency.
