Intermot 2012 new models

[paturoa]

Not so much this year for bikes. Heaps for scoots and new 'lecky things.

Reworked BMW GS12 with water cooling (not a secret)
2 new KTM 1190 adventure models (not a secret)
New Zook V-strom 1000 (concept but looks prod ready other than the engine)
Honda 450 Rally (where is maha's step ladder?)

Spotting a trend yet?

The others mostly appear to be new paint jobs, anniversary models, special editions, and a couple of new fairings, but bugger all else.

Kawaka have done a z800, Duc has reworked a monster or two. Probably the biggest "revolution" is Yamaha announcing that they are working on a new cross plane 3 pot.

Get googling and you might find your next bike.


EDIT: Here is a good list...

Always a favourite time of year Intermot for us riders keen to see what new toys we are going to be tempted with.

My guilty pleasure- the new Burgman looks like it would be a fun way to do a scenic tour of the country.

My sigh of relief. Triumph aren't releasing a sharper looking, awesome power packed new 675. Well the Street release looks ok but no 'wow' factor and the engine is unchanged for 2013. I was worried I might regret buying the MV if a stunner of a Daytona came out with heaps of extra power.

The new Kwak 636 may be a good machine but expect it to be over priced.

They should grow walrus moustaches and fight a lot on TV!
